    Well, you notice traffic sources that are more, you market there more. Place you get no traffic from, you dont waste your time.

    You notice your bounce rate high, you make changes and test on why people leave your page.

    Test, test test.

    Cheers,

    First time Analytics users will find interesting to see so many data. But, over a period of time it will help you learn so many things.
    Example
    1) You site will be based on specific keyword, but you might be getting traffic due to someones comment.
    2) Which days in week are good in traffic ( so you can post best content on that day)
    3) Traffic Sources
    4) Visitirs Browser usage ( so you can test in those browsers)
    5) Screen Resolution - How does your site look when viewed at resolution that most visitors use.

    Things like above will help you improve your site and analytics skills.

    To improve traffic get more backlinks, use link building and link exchange approach, make use of social media, use of best keywords, post comments in forums.

    Thanks, just do it and make you traffic go higher. I notice a HUGE difference in my top sources and then my natural since the top ones I work on always to drive traffic.

    This is a good trip, make sure they are one way links though.

    Beside From Link Building also engage yourself actively in Forum, Social Media and other related communities.
