Thank you. I was using Analytics in detail for the first time and your video made my life so much easier.

[@InternetHustlerOfficial]

Adding Google Analytics to your website is very important. Not only does it allow you to track the statistics but it also tells Google more about your site. Since they are actively tracking it, their bots will be better able to find your content and index your pages. Of course, it is also important for you to verify ownership of your site and submit your pages through the developer's console. Doing all of these things together will really help boost your SEO.

[@evolutionarygrace4799]

Wow, you are very thorough and your communication skills are on point! I'm at 8:20 and already you've cleared up a lot of things for me. I will watch ten more minutes for tonight, but I'll definitely be back to finish the video. I'm very impressed with this tutorial. The quality of the information is top notch!

[@dailyentertainment1658]

Thank you for you kind effort. Please make a Floodlight tag total tutorial.regards

[@startalkionlineenglishclas9680]

Brilliant tutorial. You have a unique style.

[@Surfsideppc]

Thank you very much!

[@eddierobles5137]

great tutorial. Thank you much.

[@jayjayf9699]

Does the behaviour and conversions tab in google analytics have data in them from using the method for the plugin or do you need to add more tracking codes to get this data, ( I read somewhere about enhanced ecommerse tracking but I am getting confused)

[@Surfsideppc]

You will have to set-up this data and it depends on what you are using to run your website. For example, Shopify has a guide (help.shopify.com/en/manual/reports-and-analytics/google-analytics/google-analytics-setup) for setting up ecommerce tracking and you can find similar tutorials depending on how your website is set-up.

[@odunayoipaye2775]

Thank you guys... Which part of the video do you suggest u watch first?? A bit confused with all the videos

[@skunagar0]

All right, Can You tell us the profitability of your store? Can you teach me your funnel?

[@hardikoza9094]

This is the best channel when its come to Digital marketing knowledge. Just one suggestion from my side. Sometimes your goes very fast and also make video on content marketing. Keep good word.

[@Surfsideppc]

Thank you! We're trying to slow it down in some of our newer videos, but I always recommend clicking on the video settings and slowing down the playback speed to 0.75x or 0.5x when I start going a bit too fast. And we're planning a video now that will detail some Content Marketing strategies for 2018.

[@jakehenry123]

Hi there! Big fan of your videos! Wondering if there is a way to use one tracking id code in GA for two websites? My company is using two websites interchangeably for testing purposes and I was wondering if there is a way to consolidate all of that data into one google analytics dashboard. Thank you!

[@coolwater644]

Great video, thanks! Now it makes sense!

[@theemwiz2508]

Hey can you please make a Google Analytics Video of 2020. It will help a lot of people as there are more options in 2020 than 2017. Hope you make the video soon keep up the good work :)

[@daniellesaunders7330]

Hello! First of all - I love your channel! Thank you for all the help. I do have a question in regards to Google Analytics. I'm trying to find out what the goal "Transactions (All Web Site Data)" from Google Analytics tracks? Can anyone help me understand this more? Thank you!

[@InsiderMoney1]

Brilliant walkthrough, much appreciated bro!

[@Surfsideppc]

Thank you!

[@matiasferre824]

Thank you!

[@msgbullies7935]

Great content sir. One question, does analytics allow you to retarget the people that you track or would I need to utilize my Facebook pixel?

[@Surfsideppc]

You can use Google Analytics for Google Ads Remarketing. You will have to enable Remarketing and link your Google Ads-Google Analytics accounts. Here is a lot of that information: support.google.com/analytics/topic/2611283?hl=en&ref_topic=7185254

[@Surfsideppc]

Please leave a comment if you have any questions about our Google Analytics tutorial for beginners. There is a lot we did not cover within Google Analytics, so please reach out if you need help. Thanks for watching our video!

[@thpingel]

Is there a reason you would use Google Analytics to Wordpress when they show statistics already?

[@daffiegarris8039]

Surfside PPC I am still confused. Do i have to have a special kind of website. My website was given to me by Herbalife and I don’t know how to get to the tracking number connected to my website

[@shareapps3248]

fair enough, but i wished if u kinda explain how u interpret all this data, because after all thats why i may be interested in google analytics, a side note i felt like there is huge overlapping in data, kinda its the same data showed again with different sections, thats my first impression of discovering GA through ur video

[@Saraher111]

Love yalls videos. Question on this, I am stuck at the part where you go into wordpress and add the global site tag. In my wordpress, I don't have an editor options...under appearance I only have the options of themes, customize, widgets, menus, and theme settings. The username I am using created the page, so I don't think it's a matter of admin privileges, right? How can I add this if I can't get there?

[@Surfsideppc]

Thank you! My apologies for the late response, sometimes the theme you are using will have its own settings page where you can add your Google Analytics code. You can try using this plugin, I have it on my websites: wordpress.org/plugins/google-analytics-dashboard-for-wp/

[@erumpentmarkets5082]

I used monster insight and I got hanged at verifying email. what do I do?

[@flagfootballhighlights]

Your tutorials are awesome! Really informative and a lot of value packed in here. Noticed you have a goal for Amz clicks. Pretty sure this is what I'm looking to understand how to do as far as goal tracking. Any chance you can provide some insight / guidance in a comment?

[@khalidsemary2284]

am very interested in generating monthly reports using google data studio (for Seo & PPc Campaigns). is there any possibility if u can create a video that can cover that. Keep on the good work :))

[@Surfsideppc]

Thank you! We're working on a series built around tracking and optimizing campaigns that we should have out in the next several months.

[@luizseccocunha274]

you are amazing man thank you so much for all the help! Excellent presentation.

[@amatuer2]

HI , great tutorial! But, I started on another plugin before I watched this video and I have an error. I inadvertently created 2 tracking ID's. Which one is best to change the one in the Wordpress page or the Google Analytics page? And if you could assist me me in the steps to change them . Thanks Rick

[@Surfsideppc]

What I would do is first delete any Google Analytics plugins you have installed right now. Then, sign-in to Google Analytics and make sure you only have one Google Analytics Account and Property for your website. Lastly, re-install the WordPress plugin and connect your Google Analytics property. The UA Code (Found here: surfsideppc.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/google-analytics-id.jpg) should match for Google Analytics and the Plugin.

[@amatuer2]

Surfside PPC thank you very much I appreciate your help:)

[@saraanderson6025]

Thank you!

[@ecuadorecoadventure]

Hi we could use some assistance . any tips for a travel agency? greets from Ecuador

[@msgbullies7935]

Sir can you please help me? I have two businesses a d would like to know how do I add the second business website to my analytics account?

[@Surfsideppc]

You can set-up separate Google Analytics accounts or properties within the same Google account. If the businesses are completely separate, I would set-up a Google Analytics account for each website.

[@TonySousa]

Well explained. Thanks for sharing. TT

[@tonykaenchan1794]

Thank you so much

[@schahzaad84]

Thank you.

[@CSullivanmeerkatmandude]

Is there a basic free version of Google Analytics? I do not want to get charged on my bank account.

[@jayjayf9699]

I like your videos but you have so much content on this channel I get overwhelmed and don’t know where to start

[@professormbaiwa1982]

[@Acuhappyhour]

It's not really a tutorial if you're just running through the various sections. I think most everyone can figure out each section. What we need is to explain what the data means for us. It seems like you don't really know.
