In the Beginning There Was Tracking...
Thanks for dropping by Klicksure.com. There's a good chance you're here because you're involved somehow in selling stuff online, or would like to be selling stuff.
If you are, you need to be tracking your results.
There are of course many ways to be successful online.
But pretty much every one of them requires that you get good at tracking what visitors do as they weave and bob through your online world.
That means first of all understanding the flow of traffic (a.k.a. people) that moves through the various digital assets that make up your online business, and what those individuals do along the way.
Where did they come from?
Did they stop by and quickly leave?
Did they watch a video or click through to a deeper level page?
Did they opt-in to your mailing list, or even take a risk and buy something from you?
Understanding those kinds of things is called tracking.
There are assorted ways to track what's happening in your online business, many of which we explore here.
And by the way, we are online marketers ourselves and we practice what we preach.
And Then There's Optimization
Taking what you learn from tracking and taking some actions to improve your results is called optimization.
Improving your various processes so that your visitors do more of what you want them to do (i.e. opt-in, buy stuff) and less of what you don't want them to (leave early, decide you offer little of value) is what optimization is all about.
The better you become at tracking and optimization, the more profit your business will generate. It's as simple as that.
