Quick Definition: Analytics
Analytics is the science of tracking visitors in a website. It is by far the most important part of managing a website - using any number of products the owner of a site can track their visitors and gather information about them and their experience, including (just to name a few):
- How the visitor reached the site (search engine key words, links, direct…)
- What pages a visitor looked at
- How the visitor used the internal navigation
- Where the visitor is physically located (down to the computer)
- The visitor’s operating system, browser, and screen size…
- When a visitor adds the sites to his/her favorites
