Such insights will, in turn, help you to plan your website content better, so you can meet your customers’ requirements and improve their customer journey.
Your website working better
Have a tracking system installed on your website and you’ll be able to see which pages are the most popular and producing the most leads; and which aren’t working so well. For example, you’ll see if there are any existing pages where your customers tend to drop out – so you can improve them. Such insights will help you in planning your website content on a weekly and monthly basis, from improving the existing pages to adding new ones or additional blog entries.
Potential sales leads
However, perhaps even more important than planning your website content is the leads it can give you regarding potential sales. Even though much of your website traffic will be anonymous regarding the individual user name, you’ll still be able to identify from which companies your website’s visitors are from, whether they are competitors for example or from companies to whom you could offer a service.
