Google Exams - The Good, The Bad and The Ugly
We had a target to achieve as a company – by the end of March 2011 everyone working on PPC accounts was to have taken both the AdWords Fundamentals Exam and the AdWords Advanced Exam. In addition to this, I was also aiming to take the Google Analytics Individual Qualification. I’m very pleased to report that we all took the exams and passed, but this post is here to go in a bit more detail than that.We now have 9 AdWords Qualified staff who work on clients PPC accounts and we also have me – a Google Analytics Qualified Individual to help the team out with all things analytical; although I have to admit they’re all pretty good without me, I’m just the one who gets excited about it and in to the really techy bits. I wanted to write this blog post to explain my experiences with the two exams – one was easier and the other harder than anticipated.

Using Google Analytics on a Website That Targets Multiple Countries
As explained in my post about setting up Google Analytics, it is best to create a new Google Analytics account for each Top Level Domain. There are a number of reasons for doing this, including the fact that this allows you to analyse a website for another country separately in it’s own right.
However, sometimes you have a website that targets more than one country from just one Top Level Domain. This blog post is going to take you through some tips for using Google Analytics on a website like this so that you can get the most out of your data across multiple countries.
Firstly, with one domain, you will want just a single Google Analytics account with one UA number used across the site, so setting it up is nice and simple. The tips come in the form of advanced segments, multiple profiles and advanced filters to help you understand user interaction in each country.

Infinity Tracking Review - Call Tracking Software
Back in December last year, we started looking for a more advanced solution for tracking and analysing the calls that are generated off the back of our website. The system that we were using had served its purpose but was lacking in the functionality that we needed to take our own marketing efforts forward.
How many times have you looked at a PPC ad and thought, “Wow, that has spent an awful lot over the past two months and we have only seen two online conversions”? My guess would be that most of us have said that at some stage. What AdWords conversion tracking does not currently tell us is how many people clicked on an ad and then picked up the phone.
Introducing Infinity Tracking! This great piece of software does just that but for all traffic sources. It tracks visitors back to the referral source, individual keyword and even match type and tells you what that visitor did on your site and whether they made a phone call to you.
