Step 3: Google analyze your traffic

Google analytics analyse your traffic. This is a gift from Google because Google analytics is the best from all that I have tried. To show your analytics to other, you can export it to PDF format and then let users download it from your site.
Subscribing? No need, you can do it with your Google account.
How this is done? Just follow the instruction that Google analytics give you how to do. It’s just by inserting a snippet of code before the Body.
To do that, just take your code and move on to edit html.
Paste your code before the end of the body tag
What Google Analytics is good for?
Google analytics let you know where visitors come from, each page they visit, the time that they spend on your site, their computer features…
The most important is:
Traffic Sources: Where your traffic come from.
This will help you to identify the good sources of traffic and how much they drive. Also you can know if a site linked to you.
Keyword: Keyword that the visitors use to get on your site from a search engine.
By knowing which keywords your visitors uses, you can optimize more your pages

After analyzing the traffic and knowing each sources are the best for traffic, let’s go fetch on the Google Traffic.
