Tips on how to perform Google analytics mobile tracking

1. Create a separate mobile website and mobile application measurement strategies

There is an array of mobile devices on the market today with different users. Since these users have varying needs, they will visit your website for different reasons. As a website owner, you need to understand each of the customers and attend to their unique needs. These mobile devices also use applications that utilize different technologies. Creating a distinct mobile website will make the process of tracking Google analytics on mobile simple.

2. Keep only the essentials

When the web designer embarks on the creation of a new mobile website, make sure that he doesn’t replicate the entire content of the desktop website. Mobile websites are always limited space, so you need to ensure that all critical features are captured. Anything that is not important should be left out. It is also important to keep the mobile website as simple as possible.

3. Reduce on loading times

Mobile users are so impatient. As you develop the new mobile website, you need to ensure that you reduce loading time to just a few seconds. This will make them spend more time on your website. If it takes more time to load, they may opt to close the site and moving on to others.

4. Mobile site switching

The website should be created in a manner that it is easy to redirect from the desktop website. A good web designer should be able to develop a sub-domain that allows for easy switching.

5. Cross device compatibility

There is the need to create a mobile website that interacts with all kinds of mobile devices. These devices use different applications, therefore, calling for an integrated system that can accommodate all mobile devices.
