			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">Once you’ve added the Google Analytics  code to your website, </span><span style="font-size: 11pt; line-height: 115%;"></span><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">it is time to optimize its process to provide  you important market data useful in developing your business. The first  thing you need to do is create a goal. In general, goals consist of  tracking your visitor’s activity. Your goals will revolve around getting  clients to a certain page on your website. It could be the “Thank  You” page that indicates you’ve made a sale or it could be the “Sign  Up” page for gathering email addresses. In Analytics, goals enable  you determine how to budget your money and what activities you need  to focus on more.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">Setting Up Goals</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">Setting up goals is easy. The first  step is to access the Analytics <strong>Overview</strong> page. This should be  the first page you see upon signing in. To the right of the website  you want to make goals for, you should see a blue <strong>Edit</strong> link.  Click <strong>Edit</strong> and scroll down to the <strong>Conversion Goals and Funnel</strong> section.  Choose the first goal (you can set up 4 goals) and click  the <strong>Edit </strong>button. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">Enter Goal Information</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">You’ll want to turn your goal <strong> On</strong>, then choose a <strong>Match Type</strong>. The <strong>Match Type</strong> is useful  if the pages you want to track traffic on are static (i.e. <a href="http://www.alwaysthisurl.com/" target="_blank">www.alwaysthisurl.com</a>)  or are dynamic and produce a number for each visitor (like a receipt  page). Static pages use the <strong>Exact Match</strong> option and dynamic pages  use the <strong>Head Match</strong> option.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">Next, enter the URL for the goal and  then name the goal. Name it something you will remember. Check whether  or not the URL is case sensitive. Lastly, enter the value of each transaction  you convert into a goal in the <strong>Goal Value</strong> section. Now click <strong> Save Changes</strong> on the bottom of the page and your goal is set up.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">Bounce Rate</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">One area you may want to watch if you  find yourself struggling to meet your goal is your Bounce Rate. The  Bounce Rate is the percentage of people who leave your site without  having left the initial page they visited. If your bounce rate is high,  chances are that something on the entry page is causing them to leave. </span></p>

<p><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;">Shared web hosting can be an  <a href="http://secure.hostgator.com/cgi-bin/affiliates/clickthru.cgi?id=ranacorp">affordable hosting</a> option for some websites. With shared web hosting,  several websites use the same server to connect to the internet and  store data. The websites are separated by partitions and the cost of  hosting is spread out onto several websites.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;">There are several factors to  consider before choosing shared hosting:</span></p>
<ol type="1">
<li><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;">Storage space. If    you have a website that has a lot of content, pictures, files or downloadable    programs, you may find that the storage space limitations of shared    web hosting do not suit your purpose.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;">No HTTPS. Your website    is on the same digital certificate as others so you will not be able    to separately encrypt your page. HTTPS is a secure form of hyper-text    transfer protocol and is generally used on sites that require a user    to input personal information or bank information. If you have an ecommerce    site, you may not be able to host the actual basket or checkout on the    shared host.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;">Hosting meltdown.    While your site may stay well within the storage bounds of your host,    there is no guarantee that the sites you share with will. This exposes    you to some risk of the host going down. </span></li>
</ol>
<div class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 330px"><a href="http://secure.hostgator.com/cgi-bin/affiliates/clickthru.cgi?id=ranacorp"><img title="Sign Up Now - Limited Time Offer" src="http://secure.hostgator.com/~affiliat/banners/gator.gif" alt="Unlimited Sites Hosting - Limited Time Offer" width="320" height="280" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Unlimited Sites Hosting - Limited Time Offer</p></div>
