Let\u2019s take a look at the top metrics that can be covered,<\/p>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type:disc; color: #545454; font-family: Open Sans ,sans-serif,Arial,serif !important; font-size: 15px; line-height: 26px;\">\n<li style=\"margin-bottom:10px;\"><strong style=\"color:#009ee3;\">Visitors:<\/strong> Number of visitors in a specific timeframe is the first and foremost number to check; say a person visits the ecommerce store once and another visits the store 5 times then we have 2 unique visitors and 6 visits. Marketing efforts, of offline and online marketing, could be streamlined to increase the audience size.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-bottom:10px;\"><strong style=\"color:#009ee3;\">Referrals: <\/strong>Referral numbers indicate the links clicked upon by users on social media, posts, blogs, other websites, before getting redirected to your website. Track ecommerce site for referrals, that is see from where the crowd is coming to your site, so you can get to know which of the modes of business promotions you did is going great. It also adds to you forming relationships with other blogs\/blog sites\/websites\/companies.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-bottom:10px;\"><strong style=\"color:#009ee3;\">Bounce rate:<\/strong> Bounce rate is taken based on the number of times users click on your site and click the back immediately or close the site within a few seconds of opening it. A zero bounce rate is the ideal-most state to be targeted! Referral data along with bounce rates in Google Analytics can get you to know which site is contributing to more bounce rates. To know what the search terms on the negative side are, we may have to look at some other analytics support.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-bottom:10px;\"><strong style=\"color:#009ee3;\">Exit pages<\/strong> are those pages on which most users leave the site. Say the \u2018order successful\u2019 page has a high exit rate; this means people have left the site after completing the purchase. It\u2019s important to look at the pages having high exit rates to see what\u2019s making people leave your site from that page quite a lot of times.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-bottom:10px;\"><strong style=\"color:#009ee3;\">Conversion rate<\/strong> refers to that number of people who achieved something on your site; activities completed could be filling up forms or registration or purchase completion. Lower conversion rate could mean the efforts of marketing are not directed in the right way or wrong people are targeted or people aren\u2019t given the right content on the site. Sudden drop in rates could mean cart or checkout or something more important isn\u2019t quite right.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-bottom:10px;\"><strong style=\"color:#009ee3;\">Top web pages<\/strong> of your site could mean people are happy with those pages.
