    I've just managed to get analytics installed on some of my sites.

    How do I make sense of it all?

    Have you logged in to your Analytics account? The data they provide is really pretty much self-explanatory..

    It pretty similar to other stats program. You can see something like where did your visitor came from, which channel give you the most traffic, which keywords they search to get in your site, how long they have stayed in your site... etc...

    You can use those data to analyze what's good and bad on your site in order to improve or make some change in the future.

    Hi Michael,

    To do that, you need to specify what you consider a conversion.

    Go into your analytics account, and click on "Edit" next to the URL you want to set up goals for.

    On the next page, about halfway down, you'll see a reference to Goal 1. Click to the right of that where it says "add goal."

    You will want to enter the URL from your site that would denote a successful conversion. So if someone purchases, and they are directed to a confirmation page that has a /thankyou.html address, you will want to enter the goal URL as /thankyou.html

    Save it, and watch over the next few weeks to make sure you start seeing goals tracked.
