The Best Google Analytics Apps
17th Oct 2012
Google Analytics (GA) is one of the most important weapons in your website arsenal. Watching and keeping up with the analytics of your site can be fun and beneficial to your online business. If you’re unfamiliar with what GA does: basically, it will track your visitors, how long they were on your site, what pages they went to (page views), how they found your site, and what key words got them there. To learn in-depth about GA go to click here. These days, most people have an iPad or an iPhone handy for when they’re on-the-go. Below are two “Really Cool” iOS apps that will help you keep up with your Google Analytics anywhere, anyplace, and anytime.
Analytics for iPad (Free/Paid iPad Only) by Mario Micklisch
This app works very fluidly. The reports look clean and simple, just like the Google Analytics website. You only have to login once, then you’re all set to go. You’re able to compare and customize the timeframes of your reports and every Google Analytics Report that is available at your fingertips with this app. You’ll be able to save and email your reports for offline use. The best part…it’s free! As with most free apps there’s always a catch. The free version has banner ads. I would recommend getting the paid version of this app for only $5.99
