One of the most important
pieces of information you need for a successful internet
marketing campaign is good website tracking and conversion
data. This data can tell you what marketing efforts are
working, which are not, and which are working best. Using
this data, you can improve your marketing efforts and
profitability. There is a lot of data that you can get on
your site visitors, but here are some of the most valuable
data values that you should save and track.
a. Referral URL:
This variable will tell you what site/page the visitor
clicked through to your site from.
b. Entry URL:
This will tell you what page of your site the visitor
entered on.
c. Conversion Data:
This data can tell you if the visitor made a purchase,
joined your newsletter, or any other action you want to
track.
d. Site footprints:
This can tell you where on your site the visitor went, and
tell you what pages they visited, and in what order.
Once you have setup software
on your site to collect and organize this tracking data,
then you need to start analyzing it. This is done most
easily an d accurately with a larger amount of data. Here
are the main things you’ll want to analyze.
1.
Referral to conversions:
Using y our referral url and conversion data, determine what
sources of traffic get you the most sales for your
investment. You can even use this data to pinpoint specific
search engine keywords.
2. Entry url to
conversions: Using your entry url and
conversion data to determine which landing pages are most
effective.
3. Other patterns:
Look for other patterns in the data. For example, does most
of the visitors that visit a certain page buy product?
Use your website tracking data
wisely and you can explode your profitability, just by
increasing the efficacy of your marketing efforts. There are
also other forms of tracking software that allow you track
other websites, to alert you of changes to content, etc.
These can be very useful for tracking competitor’s sites,
blogs, and basically staying on top of changes to other
websites!

Computer spy software, also known as computer monitoring
software or keylogger, surreptitiously records the computer
users’ activities without getting tracked and trapped. By
the use of computer spy software, all of the user’s
keystrokes, visited websites, viewed files, stored data, and
even chat conversations are hacked and “kept in the record,”
so to speak.
Do not believe everything you
hear, see, or read about computer spy software—not all of
them are really effective in fighting off the “spies” that
may get integrated into your computer system. Most of the
time, these computer spy software programs are nothing more
than marketing hypes and do not really deliver. There are
nearly a thousand computer spy software programs that
become undetectable by any of the famed commercial anti-spy
software these days. Moreover, computer spy software
programs are oftentimes installed tenuously so they don’t
get trapped. This does not mean that computer spy software
programs are completely useless, though. In most cases,
industries utilize them as a means to monitor their
employees. Workers tend to browse the Internet for
non-work-related information and, therefore, cause a
decrease in their productivity to keep them from being idle, employee.
