Marketers around the
world had already started slicing the piles of big data for customer
intelligence and other marketing purposes. The data around us is gigantic and we
should be on toes to absorb insights from the same. So how people are missing
something like Google Custom alert when it comes to web analytics?. I wonder
when I realized that Google custom report is the one option in the tool which
has been used to a lower extend when compared to all other drop downs and tabs.
Custom alerts in Google Analytics gives
the user a reminder or a message when something negative or positive happened
to the website’s patters. So he or she doesn’t need to log in all the time and
dig out for knowing what happened bad or good. A user can define the threshold
levels for an alert and it goes so important in a business scenario when you
are getting informed abruptly when something happened which needs your
attention.
How to set up an Alert in Google Analytics (GA) ?
1. Go to 'Reporting' tab.
2. Select 'Intelligence Events' from the left menu and then
'Overview' from the drop down
3. Select 'Custom Alerts' from the tab that appears
4.Select 'Manage custom alerts' and then click on 'Create
new custom alerts'
5. Give any name in the name field.
6. Assign the period you want to trigger the Alert (day, week or month)
7. If you want to get an email notification when the Alert
triggers, you should check the box for email. Also you can configure your
mobile phone number to get text notification. The text message
notification facility is only for US as
if now.
Alert Conditions:
8. Select the
required dimension from ' This applies to'. You can give 'All traffic' if you
want to check the overall bounce rate
9. Select 'Bounce
Rate' from the metric drop down: 'Alert me when'
(Here, Bounce Rate has taken as an example)
10. Select the condition as ' Is greater than '
11. Give the percentage in value field ( Example: 0.65 for 65%)
12. Save the alert and you are done.
(Any time, you can edit the alert that you set up by
clicking on the alert name on the custom alert page)
Note:
If your site experiences seasonality shifts in traffic or has
ranges that vary by the day of the week, the Compared to field
allows you to account for that with choices that include "same day in the
previous week" and "same day in the previous year."
