15. What Happened?
Yuno Learning discontinued affiliate marketing in July 2020 due to poor performance.
◦ The budget was diverted to Google Ads, which had been the best performing channel until then.
◦ Investments in the other channels continued as before.
Sales at Yuno Learning took a severe hit due to the pandemic, forcing the firm to diversify its
portfolio.
◦ In June 2020, Yuno Learning began offering spoken English courses and coding for children along with its
core product, IELTS training. The increase in workload required hiring for all operations: marketing (one
new hire), sales (three new hires), and instructors (two new hires).
IELTS examinations restarted in October 2020
◦ Resulting in a renewed spike in demand for IELTS coaching at Yuno Learning.
◦ Due to diversification, the firm’s overall revenue has more than doubled from the pre-pandemic level.
◦ The firm has expanded the marketing budget by 300 per cent, most of which is invested in Google Ads.
Weblogs or server logs are one of the oldest data collection techniques that were built for collecting information about server activity.
Weblogs face a few challenges, such as:-
a) Page caching by ISP.
b) Dynamic IP addresses.
c) Proxy servers.
The JavaScript tag is used to define a client-side script (i.e. JavaScript). The <script> element contains script-ing statements, or it may even point to an external script file through the src (source) attribute.
Three key metrics in Digital Analytics –
Behaviour Analysis,
Experience Analysis
Out-comes Analysis
Behaviour analysis is what is traditionally called click stream data analysis. It is the process of collecting, analysing and reporting aggregate data about which pages a website visitor visits and in what order.
All of us open multiple tabs while browsing.
Nowadays, marketing efforts are so modernized that they can measure every action on the website.
There are data visualization tools that demonstrate which sections of the content generate most engagement and which the least. They are called heat maps and they can provide insights into how to optimize the website, user experience and conversion rate.
This is one of the most important metrics and a very good segmentation variable. There are three kinds of traffic source:-
a) Direct visitors – users that visit a website by directly typing your URL in their browser address bar.
b) Search visitors – users that visit a website based on a search query in the search engine.
c) Referral visitors – users that visit a website because it was mentioned on another blog or website.
A website may get many sessions and visitors, but what is more important for a business to track is the busi-ness outcome of visits and sessions.
Average order value (AOV) can be formulated as the sum of revenue generated divided by the number of orders.
Multi-channel funnel reports enable understanding of the different channels users interact with on the path to conversion
The third category of web analytics is Experience Analysis – it is vital to do research on a continuous basis to know if visitors can find the information they are looking for and if the web page served their purpose.
One must regularly experiment and test different things on the website to know what can be improved. It must be part of the DNA of a company.
One can have a lot of metrics, but the challenge is how to make it actionable.
It is important to filter the analytics that is most vital to one’s organization so that the access is quick and easy to support highly informed decision-making.
Getting overwhelmed with the data generated by web analytic tools is very common. Segmentation can help in getting that data categorized so that one gets actionable insights.
Affiliate Marketing is a process in which marketers reward publisher/affiliate for every transaction on their website
Users are exposed to multiple channels before they purchase a product from any website. Suppose one is selling a product; user saw the product advertisement on Facebook but did not buy it at that instance.
This model is standard in all web analytical reporting tools. In this model, the entire credit for the conversion is given to the channel that was last clicked
The first interaction or first click attribution model is the same as last interaction/click model; the only difference is that in this model the first touchpoint that a customer interacted with receives 100% of the credit.
There are several tracking codes that need to be put in for effective measurement of one’s digital marketing.
