How to Install Google Analytics Tracking on your Avon Website

Track Avon Website Visitors by Using Google Analytics

Why would you want to track your Avon website traffic? One reason might be to be able to see which marketing activities are working and which are not. If your website traffic increases after you try something new, chances are it’s a marketing activity that you will want to continue to put in your calendar / schedule. Be sure to do something consistently for a few weeks at a minimum to see if it’s valuable or not. You cannot try something new one time and then decide whether it’s worthwhile or not. Another reason you may want to monitor your website traffic is to find out where your visitors are coming from to decide how to allocate your time. For example, I know that my blog produces the most amount of traffic to my Avon eStore so I try to spend a lot of my time every week dedicated to creating new content and promoting my blog posts through social media.

It’s also interesting to see which countries and which parts of the country your website traffic is visiting from to see if your online customers are more local or long distance. As you can see in the image below, even though I live in Illinois…it’s only the 5th largest referral location. My online Avon marketing is attracting traffic from all over the United States with the most popular states being Texas, New York, Florida, and California. You can even drill down to see which cities your visitors live in. I love Google Analytics but it is very detailed. I use Google Analytics when I’m looking for very specific information and StatCounter to get a quick glimpse at how my web traffic is doing for the day, week, month, or even the year.
