Web Analytics: What it is and Why it’s important.
Web Analytics used the website data and math to answer business questions: what is the benefit from each order online, for the period of time or from a concrete city/ district. WebAnalytics tells a lot about people who visit the domain, what they are doing while browsing the website. Knowing this information can seriously improve your online business by spending money only on design or on SEO tasks that will bring you more quality organic traffic in a short time.
