Google Analytics Improves Yet Again

Tuesday, November 17th, 2009

It seems like Google are on a constant drive to push Google Analytics further and make it even more powerful and dare I say enterprise class in some areas.

New features that have recently gone live are expanded and more intelligent conversion goal tracking, and new Intelligence reporting and alerts.

You’ll see the videos below which give a great overview of both of these new features:

Expanded and More Intelligent Conversion Goal Tracking

Intelligence Reporting and Alerts

Looks like we’ll have to make our Advanced Google Analytics Training Course a bit longer to squeeze these new features in!

Google Analytics Training Case Studies and Testimonials

Wednesday, October 7th, 2009

We have published 2 case studies of our Advanced Google Analytics training, which is a 3 hour intensive session delivered in-house for our clients.

Take a look at the Speedy Hire and VoucherSeeker case studies.

Client Testimonials

Both case studies feature client testimonials, some of which are below:

VoucherSeeker

Within 30 minutes of our 3 hours session we were sure it’d paid for itself.

Neil Ainsworth, Director

The training course on analytics provided by PRWD was excellent. It gave our team a good insight of analytics and the useful tools available. We’re more equipped with tools to analyse visitor behaviour than we were before

Duke Tanson, Director

PRWD helped me to realise the power behind Google Analytics whilst, at the same time, enabling us to understand and simplify the way we use it. Up until the course, we had all had a go at using certain parts but, mostly, without success. With the help of PWRD we will now be able to better assess and improve our sites and, in turn, their conversion rates.

Mark Dunne, Senior Affiliate Marketing Executive

Speedy Hire

I have been consistently impressed with Paul’s very practical approach to helping us improve our online offering. In the Google Analytics training session, Paul kept the training to the key areas which he felt we should focus on initially, according to our level of understanding and having taken the time to understand the needs of our business.

Shelley Kemp, Head of Marketing

Well delivered, thought provoking, providing us with useful tools.
As we develop our campaigns, web content, digital marketing programmes etc it will be good to use what has been learnt to ensure we are going out at the right times, to the right people, using the correct words and then being able to report back to the business.

In-house Google Analytics Training from PRWD

Tuesday, August 18th, 2009

Over at PRWD we have published details of our Advanced Google Analytics Training Course, and below I have provided details of what the course is about and who the course is aimed at:

Why Google Analytics Training?

Google Analytics is a free tool which is generally very simple to be installed on a website. There is an ever increasing number of websites using Google Analytics as their analytics tool of choice, but that isn’t to say businesses understand how to set-up Google Analytics correctly and how to get the most commercial value out of the statistics and reports available.

Google Analytics provides both basic and enterprise class features and functionality, but understanding what is available and what applies to individual businesses and users does not come easy.

This course, delivered in-house to ensure key stakeholders from the same company can benefit simultaneously, aims to help you and your business colleagues begin using Google Analytics effectively.

Objective

The course aims to provide you with the knowledge of how best to use Google Analytics on an on-going basis to gain the most valuable visitor insights and commercial value
