THE USER JOURNEY

SUBHEADER

Bounce rate – High or low – good or bad?

| 134Peder Rudbeck

Bounce rate - high or low - good or bad?

Time on page - high or low - good or bad?

New / returning visitor - differences in the way the

users behave?

Completed goals on the page - few or many?

Conditions above should be considered in compare

to where the user are in the journey, and what we

would like the user to do on the site!

THE USER JOURNEY

Metrics that describe user behaviour

19

| 134Peder Rudbeck

"Its not about what, but about why?"

Analytics gives you answers to what happens, not

why users do what they do!

Therefore, be sure to compare Google Analytics data

with a visual review of your website, and with other

knowledge about user behavior(tests and interviews)

that can help you understand why users do what

they do!

THE USER JOURNEY

Web Analytics provide What

20

| 134Peder Rudbeck

Be sure to compare same month in year to same

month the following year

Be sure to know what is going on in your business,

so that you know why the numbers might deviate

from expected…

There also a technical side to consider, be sure your

analytics is set up right, in order to measure right!

| 134Peder Rudbeck

Google and other Search engines makes algorithms, that presents the

most valuable content in the SERP to the users. Google does this

based on the knowledge the users gives Google…

This knowledge could be:

- Search keyword(s)

- Geographical placement

- Previous search history

- Other?

A big part of being able to present the most valuable content is the

possibility for the Google-bot to understand the content, and thereby

value of the page(this takes a SEO page in many ways)..


What is Google’s goal?

54

| 134Peder Rudbeck

Or put in other words – the goal is to match the user with the right

content..

Avoid duplicate content

1. Google discovers duplicate content..

1. Google Decides which one is the original, and throws the other out of the index..

66

| 134Peder Rudbeck

Location of server – (has to be as local as possible)

Robots.txt – makes It possible to exclude chosen parts of the site from being indexed in one place –

Eg. If you have static print-friendly pages(with a copy of your html pages), it is a must that they are not crawlable - or you'll get problems with duplicate content.

.htaccessMore complicated file, that lets you control how your site is

being indexed..


Server issues and SEO

67

| 134Peder Rudbeck

Nofollow - <a href="http://webpage.com" rel="nofollow">link to web page</a>

Googlebot doesn’t follow the link! (Affiliates, and linking to places you are not sure are best neighbourhood)

Noindex - <head><meta name="robots" content="noindex"></head>

Googlebot doesn’t index the page! (If you have pages that you want to keep out of the Google index)

Rel=”canonical” place link on the pages that are non canonical..

By similar content, Googlebot know which page is the “right” page!

Keyword research

77

| 134Peder Rudbeck

• Users often are looking for a need / problem - not the solution or products? Eg. Seeking "diabetes" not "insulin”

• Users read the first title with keyword thereafter description and URL


Common user behaviour when searching

78

| 134Peder Rudbeck


Keyword research

79

The goal here is to come up with keywords that

address customer needs – AND are low competitive!

Look into Google Webmaster Tools and Google

Analytics to se what keywords users use..

Analyse your competitors website for keywords

| 134Peder Rudbeck

• Only guessing keywords and search phrases

• Focusing on only one keyword instead of phrases of more keywords

• Choosing the same keywords as your competitors without analyzing them first

• Choosing too “cold - general” keywords

• Choosing too “ warm – high competition” keywords

Some statistics:

"The rule of thumb is that the cost-benefit ratio for usability is $1-$100. Once a system has been released, it costs 100 times as much to fix a problem, than fixing it in the design process.”

"The average UI(user interface) has 40 flaws. Correcting the easiest 20 of these yields an average improvement in usability of 50%. “

• DIFFERENT Projects needs different methods for collecting User Research

• DIFFERENT STAGES of a project needs different methods for collecting User Research

• Some methods gather WHY other gather WHAT information

• Always try to have TRIANGULATION of the methods in mind – and use that! (Triangulation means combining methods in order to reap the benefits of the various methods..)
