Introduction to Google Analytics
Do you know how to take full advantage of Google Analytics?
Knowing what’s most popular on your website -- and how many people are visiting it -- can be a gold mine of information for you, your organization, or your cause.
Learn what your Google Analytics data is telling you and how to use it to reach your goals.
The Introduction to Google Analytics Workshop is an online, three-session training that will give you the skills you need to maximize your website traffic, i.e. your page views.

In this fun, easy-to-follow introduction to Google Analytics, you'll learn:
- how businesses, non-profits, and bloggers use Google Analytics to reach new heights.

- three easy ways to analyze your data.
Part 3: Tracking Events and Setting Goals
If you don’t have goals, it’s hard to grow. You will leave this session feeling confident that you can:
