Monday Blog Tips: Analytics

fractal-mbt-analytics

Analytics is never to early to start tracking them but way too early to start worrying.

I’m talking about Google Analytics.  Yes, go ahead and set up your Google Analytics account.

Now check it on Saturday mornings before you sit down and grab that bowl of cereal and watch morning cartoons.   Do you do that?  Please don’t check them daily at this point.  It will frustrate you.

Okay, do you have stocks?  If you’re a day trader, you will check them and monitor them throughout the day.  I’m very sure you have stocks – in your 401K or IRA or a Mutual Fund.  You don’t check them daily – so don’t worry yourself about Google Analytics.

My wife’s word of the day (yesterday) was Algorithms.  She was saying how Googles algorithms were off and no Ebay searches were coming up.

I will tell you about my cynical thoughts.  I decided to look things up to see for myself.  I looked up the Samsung Galaxy S5.  Verizon and Busy Buy kept coming up with price cheaper than Ebay.  I would click though to their site and the price was way off the Google look up.

There are many formulas that are used.  You can try to figure them out and many people work and stress on this every day. 

Google Analytics do count to a point.  But if you can say my network is “X” amount of subscribers, I post my content every “Y”, and the person or company looking at advertising with you likes what you do anyway.  Google Analytics might be a consideration.

Do it, but don’t fret.
