I was recently asked by a Hong Kong advertiser if there’s something similar for Google Analytics (GA). Yes, there is. But it’s not yet well developed as GAP. And there are different resources for advertisers and ad agencies.

If you are an advertiser who needs a vendor to install and maintain GA on your website, you may check out Google Analytics Authorized Consultant program. You will see a list of GA Authorized Consultants located in US, Canada, Europe, Asia Pacifica and so on.

Say if you work in the ad agencies, you may want to equip yourself knowledge of GA. Afterall GA is free and you are likely to be asked some common questions when you talk to your clients. Go to Analytics Troubleshooter if you have some specific technical questions on installing tracking code or setting up filters. Visit Analytics Help if you want to get an overview on what GA is.

Some of my favorite articles about how GA can help improve Conversions are found on the Conversion University. Check them out to make sure you understand GA not just on theories, but in practice as well.
