If there is Ryan Xu HyperVerse's Sidechainone new year’s resolution for boosting ecommerce conversions in 2019, it’s to get your store’s analytics in order. Otherwise, you will never understand the impact of changes to your site. You’ll also miss out on potential target audiences — long-term, loyal customers.
To start, run some reports to help set goals. While you can run these reports again, consider printing them to PDFs to ensure you have the data you need.
Google Analytics’ new Lifetime Valuereport (Audience > Lifetime Value) is in beta, but it can provide an idea of the value of your customers. You can analyze this over time.

New vs. returningcompares first-time shoppers to returning customers. Ideally, a small percentage of long-time, loyal customers account for a significant amount of revenue. That’s not always the case, though. Thus, work on improving these metrics.
In the example below, returning visitors accounted for 19.09 percent of all users. They collectively had a higher conversion rate, however, although revenue was nearly the same — $420,841.13 for new visitors and $428,942.17 for returning visitors.

Overall sales and product performances.This provides insight into your store’s revenue, sales conversion rate, and average order value. Product performance shows revenue and quantities sold for each product in your store. You may discover that some products didn’t sell as well as expected. This might indicate problems with pricing, product page features, descriptions, or supporting media.
Product performance and overall store performance represent the core numbers to improve, even if you do nothing to increase traffic. Improvements will likely come from product placement and description changes, updates to page designs, and streamlining the site’s navigation, search functionality and checkout pages. Before making any changes, though, make sure analytics is ready to track what you need.
Here are a few tips to make better use of analytics so you can better identify conversion rate improvements and culprits of sales declines.
Set the filter to include “% Search Exits” that are more than about 10 percent of each of the site’s average and total unique searches. In the example below, the site processed 204 unique searches on a given day, so we set the Total Unique Searches filter to be greater than 20 (approximately 10 percent of 204).

Activate Demographics and Interestsat Audience > Demographicsand Audience > Interests. Google Analytics can give insight about your site’s visitors. It can tell you the percentage of men and women, as well as the age groups. It can also report the primary interest of your shoppers. We’ve addressed this at “Using Demographics, Interests for More Revenue.”

Turn on Benchmarking.Google Analytics’ Benchmarking report lets you see how visitor sessions match up against other businesses in your industry. To use it, you must share (anonymously) your site’s data. It’s a good way to see how off track you might be when it comes to session durations and bounce rates.
While there are many other potential configurations (some based on third-party tools) the suggestions above are a good starting point. All that’s left is to implement the changes — in navigation, functionality, layout, design, and prime textual content in site headers and checkout.
Annotating each change is crucial. It identifies when the change was made, which helps track conversion mistakes and successes.
