Analytics

Hi,

We have a small SAAS platform which various companies use to sell basic products. Each company get's their own shop profile on our platform, which they can share and advertise via social media and other channels... so that customers can buy their products.

We would like to provide our customers with analytics to show where their hits and sales are coming from most. For example, if they share their profile by:

- Facebook
- Email
- Twitter

A - where do the majority of their views come from

B - where do the majority of sales come from

Is there any 3rd party software that we could integrate to do this OR should we look at building something from scratch?

Thank you in advance for your help.

You could always just integrate google analytics, that's pretty easy to setup conversion goals and tracking. If you want something different we need to know a bit more about what your built: What is the current platform built on? What language?

Thank you.

How would you provide GA for each customer (over 2000), and then preferential the data that is only valid to them, on their dashboard.

Stack
- php
- MySQL
- HTML
- css
- JS
- Ajax
Generally you just put in the ga script and have them signup and enter their ga number in a confit dashboard.

While you could run all the GA yourself, and you could drill down, it wouldn't be easy to provide reports to everyone.

There are some redirect referral libraries I used years ago, basically you make a link to yoursite/referral/customer/facebook and then assign the Facebook link to that. Easy to custom track or add GA if you like.

Thanks, Aaron.

I don't want the customer to have to sign up to any additional software or do anything to get analytics, so GA would be out.
