Device Sessions Analysis

This week I decided to take a look last week’s (October 30^th-November 5^th) sessions based on devices. Desktops still had the most sessions with 918 sessions (62.32% of the sessions). Mobile was in the middle with 534 sessions (36.25% of the sessions), and tablets were at 21 sessions (1.43% of the sessions).

Interestingly enough desktops were still the highest rated of the sessions. The number of sessions from tablets did not surprise me because most people would still rather use a desktop than a tablet to do go on the internet. However, I thought that in 2016, a year where everyone is glued to their phone, that mobile sessions would have taken most of the sessions. With people on the go all the time or waiting for appointments, people are always looking up information on the internet. I guess most people would rather do extensive research on a desktop than a mobile device in order to get a bigger picture. It shows that even though mobile and tablets are still very popular, the most sessions and transactions still come from desktops.

Another Attempt

Well I took the exam again today. I passed with a 62/70. That is 88%. I now having an individual qualification in Google Analytics. I will use the skills I have gained through my studying to further my career in web analytics.

As mentioned in a previous post all I had to do to improve was get in a routine of getting out of bed early and studying earlier in the day. I also really analyzed all the questions, which is an especially important skill to have for an analytics career. I would always look to eliminate answers and just see what makes the most sense. Through hard work and studying, I have achieved the individual qualification.
