Mid-West Family is passionate about data! We use Google Analytics to look at your past and help map the future. As consultants, this allows us to focus on a full-funnel marketing strategy to help you reach your goals.
Google Analytics won’t tell your whole story, but tracking trends and benchmarking growth is an easy way to measure your marketing success.
WHAT DO WE LOOK FOR?
Trends, troublespots, pageviews, landing pages, and traffic. We review your key metrics and cater our investigation to your specific needs.
ACCESS LEVELS
Read and Analyze – With this option, we can view reports and configuration data. We request this access before we start any campaign as a baseline. It allows us a glimpse into your pages’ current performance to offer insight and suggestions.
If you sign on with us to perform Search Engine Optimization (SEO), Mid-West Family will need full administrative access to your Analytics. This allows us to create views, filters, goals, etc.
GOOGLE PARTNER
Mid-West Family has earned the Google Partner badge, which means we are Google Ads Certified and follow Google’s best practices. We take the utmost care with your information, as we are here to help businesses succeed with online advertising.
HOW TO PROVIDE ACCESS
A Google Analytics account is a critical hub of data about your business’s online presence. It pays to set it up correctly and make sure that data is in the right hands. To do that, multiple people typically need access to your account. This could be your marketing department, an intern, a data scientist, or any number of your media partners or agencies.
This blog will show you step by step how to give access to your analytics data. Unlike some platforms (Google Ads, Facebook Ads, etc) where the user can send you a request to access, Google Analytics requires you to manually provide access while logged into your account.
