They can show you how well campaigns are working to&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gosquared.com\/blog\/drive-traffic-to-your-website\">bring you the sort of traffic you want<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gosquared.com\/analytics\/\">web analytics<\/a> reports can be intimidating. You open one up, and you see a bunch of numbers and data that you\u2019re not sure how to use. Or maybe you don\u2019t even know how to generate a report.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this post, we\u2019re covering: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>How to create a web analytics report<\/li><li>How to understand a web analytics report<\/li><li>How to utilize a web analytics report (so you can put all your findings into action)<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>First up, let\u2019s look into the step by step details on how to make a report. If you already know this, feel free to scroll on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to create a web analytics report<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.gosquared.com\/images\/liquidicity\/20_04_02_Web_Analytics_Reports\/20_04_02_Create_Web_Analytics_01@2x.png\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike other analytics tools,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gosquared.com\/analytics\/\">GoSquared<\/a>\u00a0is incredibly straightforward and easy to understand. Other plusses include the free plan, and the weekly email reports that get sent straight to your inbox to help you keep track of your most important website analytics at a glance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are a few different options for installation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can copy and paste the tracking code in your website or you can use the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/gosquared-official\/\">WordPress plugin<\/a>. Copy and paste your Project Token from the GoSquared platform into the plugin settings in WordPress and you are done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019d like to track traffic and behavior in an iOS app instead of a website, you can do that as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After you\u2019ve installed GoSquared, then your website visitors\u2019 browsers will&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gosquared.com\/support\/articles\/2966596-the-information-gosquared-collects\">start sending data<\/a>&nbsp;to the platform, automatically generating the reports for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Yup, that\u2019s it. Creating a web analytics report is simply installing the right code in the right place, and then waiting for the data to collect so you can view it.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are defaults for how the report will look in your dashboard. By default, certain sections will appear at the top of the report. But if you want to change the layout of the dashboard, then just click \u201cEdit Layout\u201d in the upper left-hand corner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.gosquared.com\/images\/liquidicity\/20_04_02_Web_Analytics_Reports\/20_04_02_movingpanels.png?HG\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Then you can drag and drop the different sections of the report to prioritise them how you want them. Here, I\u2019m moving Locations and Engagement to the top, and leaving Sources at the top.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that I\u2019ve changed the report to put what I\u2019m most interested in on the top, here\u2019s what it looks like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.gosquared.com\/images\/liquidicity\/20_04_02_Web_Analytics_Reports\/20_04_02_rearranged.png?sdkjfhsdlkjh\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to understand a web analytics report<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.gosquared.com\/images\/liquidicity\/20_04_02_Web_Analytics_Reports\/20_04_02_Understand_Web_Analytics_01@2x.png\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>With your tracking setup and ready to go, GoSquared automatically generates three different reports: Now, Trends, and Ecommerce. Let\u2019s take a look at these individually to see what insights you can learn from them. (Side note: all of these reports are&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gosquared.com\/gdpr-ready\/\" target=\"_blank\">GDPR compliant<\/a>.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Now report<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.gosquared.com\/images\/liquidicity\/20_04_02_Web_Analytics_Reports\/20_04_02_GS6.png\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s start with the Now report, which is designed to give you an immediate overview of what\u2019s happening on your website this very instant, and the averages for all of the visitors that are actively using your website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These are some of the key features in this report, and what they mean:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Visitors online<\/strong>&nbsp;&#8211; The current number of active visitors.<\/li><li><strong>Traffic timeline<\/strong>&nbsp;&#8211; The amount of traffic for every day of this week, versus every day last week.<\/li><li><strong>Notifications<\/strong>&nbsp;&#8211; Important notifications about changes to your website, such as adding a new plugin or an RSS feed, so you can monitor changes your team is making at an overview.<\/li><li><strong>Sources<\/strong>&nbsp;&#8211; Your current top referring websites for traffic.
