I am a massive Google Analytics fan and have been for years. For Sinch, I started to experiment with custom dashboards for a real time view of our website performance. I track real time visits, signups, pages, and anything that shows us what our users are doing right now. I have shared the custom dashboard I use for you to use. I warn you, it’s not pretty.

To get a better understanding of how our SEO is performing, we use SEMRush to track a number of keywords that are important to us, as well as how we perform compared to our competitors.

All of our social sharing is done through Buffer. We link up all of our social channels so that we can share anything from our blog or from the other websites we read with one click. It’s super easy and very helpful. Plus, because everything is scheduled, it means our Twitter followers don’t just get a huge pile of Tweets at one time. Instead, we can roll it out over the day.
Buffer also deals with all our UTM codes and analytics for social, so we get all our social data straight into Google Analytics. UTM codes are a great way to track website traffic per campaign so you can see what posts work well. You can use something like the Google URL builder to append your links with campaign data, and then track this in Google Analytics under the Acquisition/Campaigns tab.

Mix FollowerWonk with Buffer for ultra-performing tweets. FollowerWonk will find the best time to tweet based on your specific audience, and then share this data with Buffer to post your tweets at the optimum time.
