Get Accurate Results With Google Analytics For Mobile Tracking

By:


Its known that currently collection of mobile analytics data derives its basis from the Java Script. Typically, 1 px image request which is generated by Java Script is being sent to some service provider for getting the analytics work done. Furthermore, relevant information for understanding and analyzing mobile users behaviors could also be sent along with the image request. Nevertheless, some advanced smart phones such as iPhone and Android may not be in a position to support the Java Script. Besides, if you use different types of tools for analyzing mobile traffic and interpreting the information gathered, the results could be at variance. This is because normally, data derived from image request is persistent and could serve as a support cookie. But if users make use of varied kinds of mobile devices, identification of certain unique mobile visitors on websites may become difficult as all devices may not support cookies.



Generation of desired and accurate mobile traffic report could be particularly challenging when you try to track users who make use of low end mobile devices. Additionally, if you attempt you collect data from private analytics service providers, the information derived may not be 100% accurate. Remember. It might not happen that each cookie ID which is generated by API is stable throughout the procedure. Therefore, if the entire task is undertaken manually, the Java Script initiated image requests that are being sent may not facilitate certain higher level functionalities which include event which is possible in Google analytics and marketing tracking that is determined by Coremetrics. Therefore, to identify or separate new as well as repeat visitors on your online marketing websites, it could become essential to search for some comprehensive solution which can help marketers study value for the money invested in ads.



To that effect, a software application like mobile traffic report users analysis could be worth a consideration. Such a program could be considered a smart solution as it does not send any image request. Instead it uses a pre-defined image request server script that could be based on the usage of Php, Asp.net or JSP. Users could easily download the preset script file and link it to the tracking snippet on their server that is the pre-defined file. By downloading the pre-defined file using the Google code, and by putting the tracking snippet on the mobile site in Php, Asp.net or JSP version, unique visitor IDs could be identified with much ease. The process may not require bypassing the cookie support but as the cookie ID source remains persistent and derives its basis from a value defined within the mobile device, it could be easy to access through the API or OS layer in the code thereby generating image request.
