This is my second day at Google A2 (that's Ann Arbor to you), where I'm part of the AdWords team. This group helps advertisers create targeted ads and generates revenue to support the Google products we are all familiar with and use for free. One of the major benefits of Google's advertising products is that it allows clients to track customer flow: how often are people clicking on the ad? are they buying things and giving advertisers a good return on their expenses? Google Analytics is a feature that tracks this information. It also allows website publishers to track traffic to and within the site: which pages within the site are internet users most interested in? At which point do viewers drop off? To familiarize ourselves with Google Analytics, the AdWords Nooglers are each creating their own blogs. I'll install the tracking code on my blog and learn how to use the feature through my own site. It's just a test; I'll do my best to keep it current, but no promises! If people could visit it once in a while, that would be super helpful.
Writing from the fifth floor of the A2 Google building,
