One of the problems I had to overcome before I used this function, was to login to Google Analytics and then click on my website’s profile.

After awhile I realise that with just a single login, I could view my mail, adsense, analytics, feedburner all at once. That is by using a cool function at the top of Gmail’s page in the Gmail’s > Settings. By clicking on that, a big menu will appear with several pages:

-General
-Accounts
-Labels
-Filters
-Forwarding and POP/IMAP
-Chat
etc…

Just go to the ‘Accounts’ page, and click (open in new tab) on the ‘Google Account settings’. This is my shortcut to Google Analytics!

All thanks to the AJAX scripting, it makes navigating around gmail an enjoyable one, because you don’t need to load the whole page to get to where you want.

And shortly after, I had more and more websites to manage, and they grow exponentially! It was time I stop doing this daily, and instead have Google Analytics mail me the reports. One great tip is that if you use the daily or weekly schedule, It’s gonna show you by default viagra for women the web traffic stats for that day or week. If you login to Analytics directly, you’ll see a collected web stats for the period of 30 days. Well that’s an overall view, though you can change it. I find it troublesome.

Under each individual account, there’s a email function, which you can use to it to mail you web stats.
My strategy is to use the daily report function for sites that have higher traffic (those that are of higher important), and a weekly report for those with lower traffic(those that I am less worried about).

So here’s how you do that email thing:

Click on the email button located near the top left, beside the export.

Then you’ll schedule the frequency of the report to be send to your mail account.

So now, you can sit back and wait for the reports to come to you, instead of you logging in daily to check the web traffic stats generated by Google’s Analytics.
