Do you know your site stats?

Your website stickiness can be measured by your site stats . . .

There are many free, subscription based and purchase type stats programs you can implement on your website for good statistical tracking that will help determine the facts of just what is happening on your web site.

Here is how they do that. A good stats package will tell you:

- where the click in came from ie direct, referral, and organic SE returns.
- what key words were typed into the SE to find your site.
- what pages your users are coming into your site on.
- how long are users staying on those pages.
- what other pages are being clicked into on your site.
- how long are users staying on those pages.
- what are the exit pages of your site.

The above stats can give you a reasonably good picture as to what may be occurring on your website. How they are finding you, what pages are viewed and of interest and where they are leaving your site. The leaving can reveal whether they left on a conversion page either by completing the action or in an aborted process. The pages can then be reviewed to determine was this "exit" due to technical problems, message or offer problems, web form obstacles or possible user disinterest at that point.

None of these violate privacy or reveal any personal information of the users of your website just the technical information needed to help understand the effectiveness of your site. These stats can help you set realistic and measurable goals for your web site objectives.

What is your website bounce rate?
The opposite to the "sticky" experience is called the "bounce rate", which can help identify and define the referring sources, types, totals and percentage rates of visits where they find and then immediately leave your site without clicking into and viewing any other pages.

This effect could have been caused for several reasons, from mis-use of or non-applicable SE keyword returns, technical server and page load issues, to primitive or poor visual website quality, or even the websites basic color scheme selection just being offensive to a target market, then onto your content not being what they were seeking or your core message was misunderstood, non existent or very unclear.

How we can assist you . . .
For our clients that purchase our reseller hosting services along with our website design or support packages we automatically set up the standard basic stats options included in their control panel for them. They receive a secure login and link to their website stats where they can review them 24/7 at their leisure and interest level.

For our contract design and support customers who want more we have found that Google's free and private analytics program offers some incredible insight and well thought out and organized reporting. We can review and assist our client to 'tweak" their site in the direction they want to take it and help review and resolve bounce rate issues.

As the site matures if the client wants to take their web site up to the next level of PPC (pay per click) advertising they have valid historical insight and statistics to help determine their better keywords and target market(s) from reviewing their statistical organic search engine returns.


Next - be sure to get some real life feedback and outside review about your website too. . .
