Beginner's Guide to Google Analytics: What to Track

I love analytics, I could sit for hours in front of a spreadsheet with a thousand formulas dissecting data from every possible angle, but the truth is that 9 times out of 10, the analytics account in question hasn't been set up to give me the data I want or need.

Google Analytics especially has been sold as easy. You install the JavaScript snippet on the page and away you go. But it really shouldn't be that simple, because while Google provides a lot of data out of the box, it probably isn't going to give you everything you need without some tweaking.

Get Planning

It all starts with planning the implementation of your analytics. You want to ensure that you have the data you need when you need it. Later on, you'll?develop routine processes to get the most out of your analytics, as well as some more complex analysis that will make all the difference in how you run campaigns and marketing efforts.

You may want to try and track a number of things with Google Analytics. Before you can do anything else, you need to understand what you're trying to track and why.

Here are a few ideas on data you may want to track.

Customer Segments

Customer segments allow all standard Google Analytics reports and custom variables to be tracked according to customer type. This will allow you to see customer journeys and key conversion goals based on the specific customer type, and will also give additional insights into customer paths and conversion rate optimization opportunities.

For example, customer segmentation for an ecommerce site would include:

• New visitors
• New visitors who create an account
• New visitor account creations who add to cart
• New visitor account creations who purchase
• New visitor account creations who don't add to cart
• New visitors who don't create an account
• Returning visitors ? no account
• Returning visitors who create an account
• Returning visitor who create an account & add to cart
• Returning visitor account creations who add to cart & purchase
• Returning visitor account creations who don't add to cart
• Account holders
• Visit & add to cart
• Visit & purchase
• Visit with no action

Goal & Event Tracking

Goal and event tracking allows you to see specific conversions, and the value amount for those conversion points. You can define whatever goals and events you want and include dynamic factors such as purchase values.

This data can be used to evaluate the true value of a marketing activity based on the value of purchases made from that referral source, rather than approximations based on total or average values.

Example goals:

• Customer sign up
• Cart additions
• Purchase & purchase amounts

Example events:

• Click on sign up form
• Click on check out form

Page Categories

Page categories allow you to segment your site to see metrics for specific areas and themes. If, for instance, you want to know if product category A or B is more likely to result in a customer creating an account or making a purchase, you can track this data. Similarly, you may wish to know more about how visitors interact with certain sections of your blog, categorizing pages will allow this.

This is the first in a series of articles looking at effective implementation and use of Google Analytics. Many of the lessons here can be applied to other analytics packages, too. The next article in the series will look at how to implement collection of these data items.

HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) ? A judge rejected requests by prosecutors that jurors be brought in from outside the State College area to hear the child sex-abuse case against former Penn State assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky.

Judge John Cleland on Monday also denied prosecutors' requests that Sandusky remain indoors while on home confinement before his trial and ruled that Sandusky can have supervised contact with most of his grandchildren, saying there was no evidence that the children's parents wouldn't be able to keep them safe.

Sandusky faces 52 criminal counts for what prosecutors say was the sexual abuse of 10 boys over a 15-year period. He has denied the allegations.

Cleland has tentatively scheduled the trial to start in mid-May. He said jury selection will be a challenge, given the pretrial publicity and the special role that Penn State plays in the Centre County community.

"If, after a reasonable attempt it is apparent that a jury cannot be selected within a reasonable time, then I will reconsider this ruling," Cleland wrote.

A spokesman for the attorney general's office said the judge's orders were being reviewed.

Sandusky's lawyer issued a statement saying Sandusky, his wife and their family were "relieved by and pleased with" the visitation ruling, which pertains to all but three of his 11 grandchildren, ages 2 to 14. Those three children are involved in a custody case, and Cleland deferred decisions about any visits from them to the judge handling that matter.

Prosecutors made the bail modification request, asking that Sandusky remain indoors, after hearing concerns by neighbors about the safety of children, particularly at an elementary school behind Sandusky's house.

"The commonwealth failed to present any evidence whatsoever that the defendant presents a clearly defined threat to any student at the adjoining elementary school simply by being on his deck," Cleland wrote. "No evidence was presented that at any time the defendant made any effort to contact any of the children by signaling or calling to them, or that he made any gestures directed toward them, or that he acted in any inappropriate way whatsoever."

Cleland encouraged state prosecutors to work with the judge who supervised a grand jury that investigated Sandusky to figure out how to release grand jury transcripts to Sandusky's lawyers "on a schedule which balances the appropriate interests of maintaining the secrecy of the grand jury while still assuring the trial can proceed without unnecessary disruption."

Cleland also ordered prosecutors to tell defense lawyers where and when the purported crimes occurred and how old the children were at the time. He addressed disputes between the sides over material that should be turned over to the defense by directing prosecutors to put their objections in writing by Feb. 20. Sandusky's lawyers will be allowed to reply by Feb. 27.

Sandusky lost a request to force prosecutors to disclose the names, addresses and birth dates of witnesses.

"While we are happy with the outcome of Friday's hearings, we realize, nevertheless, a number of difficult legal battles lie ahead of us," his lawyer, Joe Amendola, said in a statement. "We will continue to work very hard in preparing Jerry's defense with the ultimate goal of obtaining Jerry's acquittal."

The 68-year-old Sandusky was also granted the right to see adult visitors. Under the court's latest order, he will list up to 12 adults he would like to be able to see, subject to approval by the county officials overseeing his home confinement. His visits will be limited to a total of two hours, three times a week.

Also Monday, a Penn State administrator asked a judge to throw out charges that he lied to the grand jury investigating Sandusky and that he failed to properly report suspected child abuse.

Tim Curley filed motions in Dauphin County Court that argued the death of football coach Joe Paterno last month left prosecutors without a required second witness to support the perjury charge.

He said allegations that he didn't report suspected abuse in 2002 were filed under a revision of the law that was passed five years later and that the statute of limitations has expired. The attorney general's office said it, too, was under review.

The 57-year-old Curley is on leave as athletic director as he awaits trial. Former Penn State Vice President Gary Schultz, who faces the same charges as Curley, has not filed similar motions. Both have denied the allegations.

Am I Dying to Dance, Or Am I Dancing Because I'm Dying ...

There were reminders everywhere last week, things telling me that one day I?d be gone from this world, something thought of fondly in memory like the 8-track or the Lite Brite.? First off, I was sick.? My body felt weak and I couldn?t eat.? Secondly, probably because I was sick, cigarettes were making me cough a lot, and that reminded me that smoking is bad.? Thirdly, I was depressed.? There is no greater reminder of death than depression; sometimes I?ll think about the CDs in my collection and the girls I?ve dated and I?ll be dumbfounded, slowly grasping the idea that I have terrible taste.? Similarly, when I?m sick, smoking, and depressed, it suddenly dawns on me that I might not live forever.

Plus I have bad circulation and cold weather makes my feet go numb. ?A few months ago I was having coffee with a friend, in the smoking section.? The windows were all open for ventilation, making the smoking section so cold they could?ve filmed the sequel to March of the Penguins there. ?In a flash, I couldn?t feel my feet.? The sensation of it, of having no feet or maybe that my body had cut my feet off like a bartender cutting off a drunk at last call (?Listen, feet, I think you?ve had enough blood?I?m going to have to stop serving you tonight?), made me terribly lightheaded and I started freaking out.? I felt faint.? I told my friend I had to get out of there, go home, and in a crazy haste I fled to the subway.

?You?re not dying,? I sternly told myself.? ?Stop it.?

Part of my brain wasn?t listening.? I knew exactly why.? I?d thought I was dying before.? It was Professor Ruby and her lecture.? How she said the feet and the hands get cold.? I hopped up and down on the subway, not caring if people stared at me.

I saw my reflection in the subway mirror.? All the memories were there, in a jumble.? Professor Ruby, the ambulance, the freak outs, and, of course, my dance moves in the bathroom.

*

In order to get my Bachelor?s Degree, I had to take two gym classes.? I was 20 years old, young and sprite and healthy enough and moving towards being a college graduate.? The new semester was about to begin and the woman in the counseling office was making my schedule.

?You need a gym credit,? she said.

?I took golf last year,? I told her.? ?That was pretty good.? Is there anything else easy like that?? Maybe yoga or something??? What can I say?? I was a skinny, chain-smoking artsy nerd with a pony tail.? The last thing I wanted was to take basketball with a bunch of jocks.? It wasn?t my idea of a good time.? It would make me as miserable as the frat boys who somehow got signed up for poetry electives and looked, every class, like they were in the fourth quarter of a game they were losing badly.

?Um, sorry,? the counselor said.? ?Yoga is filled.?

?Frisbee golf?? I heard there?s Frisbee golf.?

?There?s Ultimate Frisbee.? Is that what you mean??

?Hmm, that involves a lot of running.? What else do you have??

?Well, the basics, really.? Soccer.? Basketball.? Football.? Running.?

?Running!? Football!? Oh God no!?

She could probably sense the dread in my voice and so, with a sigh, she pitched me an alternative suggestion.? ?You can take Death and Dying.? It counts as a gym credit.?

?Sign me up.?

In summary, at my school, you could either take an active sport or, for those not so physically inclined, you could choose to take Death.? And I, happily, chose Death.

If the Grim Reaper ever approaches me with similar options, I?m going with football.

To no surprise, Death and Dying turned out to be taught by a new-aged loony named Professor Ruby who had big glasses and a pet wolf.? Yes, a pet wolf.? She?d come into class frazzled and say, ?I couldn?t get any sleep?Eli was howling all night.?? I?d nod and think, ?Well, you do have a wild animal living in your house.? Maybe Eli the wolf is getting a little stir crazy.?? The structure of the class was simple: we would learn about the process of death itself and about how we, as humans, deal with it.? We had to read books on grief by Elizabeth Kubler Ross and we?d be taking a variety of field trips.? And we would be forming a support group for each other, should anyone in the class suffer a loss, or should Professor Ruby be eaten by her pet wolf.

There were about twenty students and we all dove right in.? Professor Ruby talked about her mother?s death and encouraged us to openly share our own experiences.? Many students did, telling the class about friends or family who had gone, and it was then that I realized what a stranger I was to death.? My whole family was alive (with the exception of my grandfather who died when I was really little) and I?d never lost any friends.? I felt almost embarrassed by it, like a poser or something, sitting there all na?ve in a classroom full of people who had authentic Bridge to Terabithia experiences.? Why hadn?t anyone in my life died?? What was God waiting for? ?Didn?t he know I needed material for class discussion?

After a few weeks, I started getting massively bummed out. ?The class ?wasn?t a fun and easy cake walk like I?d thought it would be.? We were given the exasperating assignment of writing our own eulogies and I really struggled with mine.? It made me think about my life. ?If I died that day, what good would anyone have to say about me?? My roommates noticed how melancholy I was getting.

?What are you doing man?? they?d ask.? ?You?re just sitting here in the living room?did the TV break??

?No, I?m thinking about my funeral.?

And then they would leave immediately.? In the following months, things got worse.? Professor Ruby was brutal, merciless.? We went on field trips to a hospice and a morgue.? We talked to people who were dying.? She showed us a videotape of a sick child passing away.? I was devastated by it.? Eerily, almost every student in the class had someone they knew die that semester.? More people cried in Death and Dying than they do at the Grammy?s.? It seemed like every class we were getting up and doing a group hug for so-and-so, because her grandmother just passed.? ?This is a place where we openly share our thoughts on death,? Professor Ruby said.? ?There is no judgment?only support.?

I wasn?t sharing my thoughts.? Why hadn?t anyone close to me died?? I thought I knew the answer.? It was because, I thought, I was the one marked, the person chosen.? I could feel it.? I thought of the dying child in the video ? there weren?t any other members of his family struggling through something like that.? No, they all sat around him healthy as could be.? Maybe my whole life I was the sick child and I didn?t even know it.

That?s when the freak-outs began.? I?d smoke pot and totally lose it, convinced that my time had come.? On one occasion, I took the ice cube tray from the freezer and started sucking on ice cubes.? I thought that the ice cubes were the only thing keeping me alive and when the tray ran out I?d be dead.? On another horrible occasion, I got a nose bleed and called 911.? ?I?m dying!? I shouted into the phone.? ?Send an ambulance!? Hurry!?? They sent three.? By the time they got there, my nose bleed was gone and the paramedics kindly told me that I was okay.? It was humiliating and I felt like a crazy person.? I wondered what would make me call the ambulance next time ? bad gas?? Maybe halitosis?

I started filling a flask with vodka and taking it to school with me.? I?d sit outside on a bench by myself, drinking.? Once in awhile someone would come up to me and go, ?Hey party animal!? Starting the weekend early!?!?

?Nah, it?s just the only way I can deal with class.?

For all of my freak-outs, none of them had happened in the class itself.? Somehow I was always able to maintain composure through it and then break down afterwards.? That changed the day Professor Ruby gave the lecture on the signs of death our bodies show when we?re dying.? It was a long lecture, and I squirmed in my chair listening to it.

?First the hands go cold.?

?My hands are cold,? I thought.? ?Oh my God, they?re freezing.?

?The feet get cold next.?

?My feet are ice cold,? I thought.? ?This is it!? This is it!? Why hadn?t it dawned on me before?? All along?this was the plan.? IT WAS PREDETERMINED FROM DAY ONE THAT I WOULD DIE AN IRONIC DEATH IN DEATH AND DYING CLASS!?

I got up and rushed out of class.? I was hysterical.? My body was covered in sweat and I couldn?t breathe.? For about ten minutes I walked in circles down and around the hallways, and then I darted into the bathroom.? I threw water on my face.? I looked at myself in the mirror.

?I don?t want to die,? I thought mournfully.? ?I won?t let myself die.?

If things weren?t totally bizarre already, they quickly got there.? Looking at myself in the mirror, I raised my arms and, without much logic behind it, slowly began to dance.? First it was my arms, then my hips and legs joined in.

?See!? You?re not gonna die!? You can move!? You can dance!!!?

I was possessed.? I began shuffling my feet and swinging my arms over my head.? The thrill of being alive filled me.

I was so caught up in the rush of movement and vitality that it took me a moment to realize the bathroom door had opened and two students from class were standing there, looking at me. ??Oh!? I shouted, abruptly ending my groovetastic gyrations.? ?Hey!? What?s going on??

?Um,? one of them said.? ?Professor Ruby was worried about how you left class like that?she told us to go check to see if you were okay.?

I giggled nervously.? ?Yeah?I?m good.? Just?you know?I?ll be back soon??

What on earth could they have thought?? ?Yes, Professor,? I imagined them saying.? ?Bill?s fine.? He just had to dance.?

Before the next class I emailed Professor Ruby and told her I had some problems at home and couldn?t come in for awhile.? The semester was almost finished at that point.? Perhaps she could sense that the class was more than I could handle.? I went in for the final class and turned my exam paper in.? I was given a B and that was it.

Death was over.

*

How is it that human beings, despite all of our destructive behavior, can so often block out death?

It?s because, I think, our bodies and minds are so filled with life that it?s impossible to grasp any end to it.? Dancing in the bathroom, or jumping up and down on the subway, or even writing this, I felt strong and present, whirling with force.? Isn?t it like that all the time?? Even the small things we do, talking to each other or eating a grape or walking through the cold to get to work, they?re all complete with energy and being, the gravity of existence.? Isn?t that what keeps us from wandering into whatever other worlds we believe in?? Our movements, our ability to touch one another, the gift of being able to laugh, they all keep us firmly rooted with the wonderful weight of being here.

How can I possibly think of dying when everything inside of me tells me every second that I?m so very much alive?

YC-Backed SendHub Lets Businesses Text Their Customers, And Teachers Text For Free

Y Combinator and Start Fund-backed startup SendHub, which offers a simple SMS solution for businesses, is killing it...and it never "officially" launched. Instead, the company soft-launched a couple of months ago with zero fanfare, and already has several hundred customers, 40% of which are active monthly users, sending some 30,000 SMS text messages per month. Although generating revenue through its premium services for businesses, SendHub is also making teachers' lives easier, by providing them with free tools to communicate with students and parents via SMS.

PRP treatment aids healing of elbow injuries say researchers

Select individuals appear to return to play quicker

SAN FRANCISCO, CA As elbow injuries continue to rise, especially in pitchers, procedures to help treat and get players back in the game quickly have been difficult to come by. However, a newer treatment called platelet rich plasma (PRP) may pose hope, according to researchers presenting their findings at the American Orthopaedic Society for Sports Medicine's Specialty Day meeting in San Francisco.

"PRP therapy is a very exciting area of research and a number of questions still need to be answered, including optimal concentration, number and timing of injections, the role of white blood cells and the role of ultrasound or image guidance when performing these injections," said lead researcher, Scott A. Crow, MD of the Kerlan-Jobe Orthopaedic Clinic in Los Angeles, California. "Despite these questions, this study indicates that in the short term, PRP may be an effective option to successfully treat partial ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) tears in the elbow of athletes."

The researchers followed 17 athletes with a partial UCL tear. All patients had failed conservative treatment, including rest and physical therapy. Baseline questionnaires, including the Kerlan-Jobe Shoulder and Elbow Score (KJOC Score) and Disability of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand Score (DASH Score) were completed for each patient prior to the PRP injection. Each patient underwent a single PRP injection at the ulnar collateral ligament under ultrasound guidance.

At an average follow-up of 18 weeks (range 12-46 weeks), 16 of 17 athletes had returned to play. The average time to return to play was 10 weeks (range 8-12 weeks). The average KJOC Score improved from 47 to 93, p=.0001. The average DASH Score improved from 24 to 3, p=.003. The Sports Module of the DASH questionnaire improved from 74 to 6, p=.0001.

"There is little information in the literature regarding non-surgical treatment of UCL tears. Our results show that PRP may be an option to return players to the field without having to place them under the knife," said Crow.

9-inch Kindle Fire may be in the works

Hmm. A 9-inch Kindle Fire wouldn't be quite so handy (literally) as the 7-inch model.

By Suzanne Choney

A Kindle Fire with a 9-inch screen could be coming mid-year, according to an analyst who is raising sales estimates for the popular Amazon device based on a bigger-screen model joining the lineup.

A 9-inch version of the Fire has been bandied about; Apple's iPads ? 1 and 2 ? have 9.7-inch screens, and the same size is projected for iPad 3, which is expected to be announced next month.

AllThingsD's John Paczkowski notes that Pacific Crest analyst Chad Bartley "this week raised his Fire sales estimate" because of a bigger Fire added to the mix. " 'We are raising our 2012 sales forecasts to 14.9 million from 12.7 million,' he wrote. 'But we believe there is an upward bias, particularly from the new 7- and 9-inch models, which we expect to launch in mid-2012.' "

A recent survey of Kindle Fire owners found that they're quite happy with the low cost of the Fire ($199, compared to the cheapest iPad at $499). But they do have issues over some of the FIre's features, including the lack of a volume button and camera, as well as a short battery life.

Screen size may be an issue for some potential buyers. On the survey's lists of "likes" about the Fire, after price, color screen and ease of use ??way down on the list ??was the Fire's 7-inch screen size; only 12 percent said that was a positive. Another chief Fire competitor, Barnes & Noble's Nook Tablet ($249) has a 7-inch screen; if Amazon were to add a bigger Fire, it would be better positioned to fight both Apple and Barnes & Noble.
