What is Google Analytics

Google Analytics is a free tool from Google that allows you to analyze visitor behavior on your website. It helps you gain insights into what’s happening in your webshop, such as:


  • How many visitors you have: See how many people visit your website.
  • Where they come from: Discover through which channels, such as Google Ads or social media, customers find your webshop.
  • What visitors do: Analyze which pages are visited and where people drop off.
  • Measuring conversions: Track important actions like placed orders or completed quote forms.
