Web Analytics Consultant: Google Analytics

Headquartered in the Scottsdale Airpark, Actual Metrics is a Google Business Solutions agency. We're a small company with good industry relationships and have a solid foothold in a highly visible market. Our core business involves knowing everything possible about Urchin Software and Google Analytics, but we also provide expertise for the Google Mini and Search Appliance, Google Website optimizer, AdWords, Google Webmaster Tools, and more.

ALL ABOUT GOOGLE ANALYTICS

Google Analytics is a web analytics software package that helps businesses figure out how visitors reach websites, what activities visitors perform while on the site, what pages are read, where visitors are physically located, and other details about website traffic. Google Analytics creates these reports by processing web server log files -- reports are then accessed via a web browser. With Google Analytics, you can define conversion goals, import cost data, identify marketing campaigns, process historical data from old log files, create custom reports, and much more.

Google Analytics is used by many of our clients to track public-facing websites -- these clients include Fortune 500 companies, web hosting companies, venture-backed startups, major colleges & universities, Government agencies, and everything in between. Actual Metrics is a one stop shop for Google Analytics -- this includes installation, configuration, support, training, customization, analysis, integration, and anything else you can do with the application.
