A large variety of analytics software and SaaS solutions do not identify many search engines. Some of them just recognize the major ones like Google, Yahoo!, Baidu (Chinese), Yandex (Russian) and few others. Having the option to read the keywords from which the visitor came from is a big advantage for your online business optimization requirements for success and understanding global markets.
  • Visitor navigation paths – HitsLink let you view and understand your visitor’s behavior by providing in-depth visitor navigation path analysis. Every website owner, webmaster or Analytics expert, should understand the implications of bad web design.

Further enhancing and optimizing your SaaS real-time web analytical experience and providing more analytical tools to deepen your understanding on your website/company’s behavior. Again, HitsLink Enterprise contains all the features that the ‘Professional’ package has and adds more ‘Enterprise’ to it.

  • Campaign tracking – HitsLink Enterprise lets you accumulate email and PPC campaign statistics, and keep track of leads. It helps you better comprehend which email or PPC advertising campaign performs better.
  • Events – It collects valuable website statistics data related to events on your website, for example, file downloads, filling forms, trials, etc.
  • Identify fraudulent clicks – A very effective algorithm that identifies fraudulent clicks on campaign banner or links. We can’t turn over our head to the fact that many advertisers are losing money because of malevolent acts made by competitors or just bored Internet surfers. Having a tool like this, gives you a line of defense to stay protected against click frauds.

HitsLink Platinum – An upgrade to the ‘Enterprise’ version, HitsLink Platinum is the most modern, fully featured real-time web analytics solution in the line of HitsLink web analytics products.

  • Dynamic segmentation in Real time – Segmentation is the way to identify subsets of potential buyers within a market (in our case, your website), that has similar needs and behavior of a potential buyer. Using Dynamic segmentation in real time, you can view, analyze and create segment, based on real-time analytical data, which is being collected and displayed to you in real-time.
  • Funnel Analysis – This feature enables the site owner to get a higher level view of what is happening in his site. Being able to see how visitors convert to sales (or not), gives you a better understanding on how to improve, and what to improve in your website, in order to optimize the visitor’s experience and make smart decisions that will lead to more conversions in terms of leads, transactions and revenue. The funnel analysis report will give you just that, and we can see such features in more and more Enterprise web analytics solutions on the market these days.
  • Overlay click map - A special feature that allows you to analyze a specific web page for user clicks. You can actually see the number of clicks the user clicked on a single link on a page as an overlay.
  • Multivariate (A/B) testing – A/B tests are being performed in order to determine which web content performs better than the other and test its effectiveness Also called multi-variable testing, this robust feature enables you to optimize your website appearance and check out which combination leads to conversion. Every visitor gets to see a different variation and the system will test which of the variations performs better. This is a truly highly valued enterprise feature, which you get with the HitsLink Platinum plan.

The HitsLink web analytics system is Easy to Use, the only thing that you’ll need to do is to implement HTML code in each page that you want to track your visitors. After that, the system starts gathering data and logging it, and you can see it right away in your dashboard and reports.
