Google Analytics Introductory Video

Posted by Marshall on February 25, 2007 | Link It

While searching on Blinkx today I fount this introductory video on setting up Google Analytics which is pretty good; in six minutes you are taken though everything you need to set up set up tracking of GA on your site.

Since the author of this video is blogger - he takes you though the setup of Google Analytics for his blog - Conversation Marketing.   I decided to imbed this video at Webmetricsguru.com because it often comes up that I ask my clients or others to install Google Analytics and then they ask me how to do it. 

If a picture is worth 1000 words, a Video is probably work several thousand words, and maybe insights that are much harder to communicate via the written word.  What I'd like from the author, if he has not done it already, is a video on setting up conversion goals and a video on using filters.

Anyway, without further ado, here's Ian Lurie showing you how to set up Google Analytics. Have fun!  (BTW, once you look at the video, notice how many blog templates he's got in his Movable Type platform - looks like he's got a lot of blogs - I bet they link to each other in some fashion….hmmm)
