How to nail Google analytics for eCommerce

Do you know where your site's traffic is coming from?

Are they using desktop?

or maybe mobile phone?

Does your traffic increase your revenue?

Who has visited today, this week, this month

Or even this year? Well...

Google's there for you, with all the metrics

Google's there for you, and Luke knows all the tricks

Google's there for you, with Google analytics 

Now just for fun, read this sentence back to the Friends theme song, go on, we'll wait.


Who's it for?

In all seriousness, if you are using Google Analytics and you aren't quite sure if you are reading it right, or like me, got scared the first time you saw Google analytics or if you are looking for a solid, free analytics program then this is the one for you.

Progressive Web Apps for Today | Running production PWAs for performance and growth

In case you're new to the world of PWA here's the quick version, PWA stands for Progressive Web Application, they take traditional websites and native applications and combine the best of both worlds with features such as offline interaction, faster speeds, lower costs and incredible reliability.
