Reviews
TOP REVIEWS FROM GETTING STARTED IN GOOGLE ANALYTICS
Was a great, short and simple course, covering all the basics of analytics of a website. Proper terms and slang were well explainer by the instructor. Overall, was a good course to start from.
Overall, it's a short and good review of some of the basic functions of Goggle analysis. It would be great if the instructor can spare more time explaining how functions help businesses.
I learned some good stuff to help me either help others, or to develop my own website. The data that I can track will be instrumental in helping to increase profits/revenue.
Really liked the way they teach the course. Also, simple explanation is a plus point here. Just wished for more detailed explanation regarding conversions.
