Data Connectors – Google Data Studio – Transcript

Hi. I’m Daniel from OnlineMarketingTechs.com and today, I would like to show you some of the Google Data Studio Connectors. Data Studio. Now Google Data Studio is one of the best analytics reporting platforms that there is. It allows you to import different analytics or online marketing data sources into one place to where you can view real-time reports, update, and really parse out data that you’re not allowed to do on a lot of the individual analytics platforms.

Premium Connectors

Now, most of these connectors are paid connectors. You have to pay for them. But, they are worth it for some marketers. If you don’t need some of these extra features, then I recommend not getting them. But, if you do, I highly recommend these platforms or one of these connectors that would work best for you and use it for your business. I’m just going to go briefly through some of these connectors so you can see what they have to offer.

Supermetrics

Here’s Supermetrics. You’re going to see them a lot. That may be one of the options that you will want to go with. With them, you can import all sorts of social media platforms and their analytics reporting. Bing, AdWords, it’s really fantastic. In fact, we’ll go ahead and look at their landing page real quick so you can see some of the cool stuff. So, you can get a free 14-day trial to see if it’s right for you, or you can buy it now. Here’s a template. That’s a template for Facebook or multiple campaigns. But they’re $19 a month.

You can unite the data for multiple marketing platforms into the data studio. From PPC, social, email, payment platforms, and all types of different really cool stuff. And if you can’t find out the right integration, they will build one. That’s how good these guys are. Cross-platform reporting. So, in the same charts, you can add multiple connections into the same charts like AdWords, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn and Bing and all that stuff. If you’ve been doing this before, you don’t have to report CSV files or connect your Google Datasheet (which can be daunting for a lot of advertisers).It gives you automatic reporting and real-time updating. Supermetrics has a lot of really cool things. In fact, a lot of the other connectors that we are going to be showing are from Supermetrics.

Native Facebook Connector from Mito

This is a free connector that connects to the Facebook Marketing API from Mito. Google actually sent me an email that turned me on to this, and I was like “Yeah, way cool. I like it.” So, I definitely had to check it out. It’s from Mito. You might want to add that connector. At least check it out because Google Data Studio doesn’t automatically have support for Facebook. But if you use Google Sheets and you know how to integrate it with Data Studio, then you can pull the information from that, but it’s not for everybody for sure. So, I really like that they have this one.

Secret Keyword Tool Comparison – Data Analytics Search Volume Discrepancies Across Platforms

By on January 25, 2018

Secret Keyword Tool Comparison

Data Analytics Search Volume Discrepancies Across Platforms

Keyword Tool Comparison Test

Okay, so today I’m going to be testing several different keyword tools. These keyword tools will be testing the same search terms to see if we can see any discrepancies between them.

Keyword “iPhone X”

AdWords Keyword Planner

We’ll start off with the AdWords Keywords Planner with the search term “iPhone X.” iPhone X gets 2,240,000 searches according to Google AdWords a month. This is in the United States.

adwords keyword planner data analytics

MOZ Keyword Tool

Let’s see what MOZ says about it. OK iPhone X gets 300k-1.5m. That’s a little bit different. That’s not quite the same as what AdWords is telling us with the same keyword.

moz keyword tool comparison

SERPs Keyword Tool

So, let’s see what it says in the SERPs. Same keyword iPhone X. iPhone X says 6,600. That’s a huge difference.

SERPs keyword tool comparison data analytics

SEM Rush

Let’s see if we can get some search results from SEM Rush. Let’s see what SEM Rush is saying. iPhone X. Organic search 2.2m. That’s a little bit closer to what Google is telling us. That’s not too far off. That’s about the same.

Keyword “Galaxy Note8”

AdWords Keyword Planner

Let’s see what we can find out about for Galaxy Note8. I’m sure there’s a lot less interest, but let’s see what we can find out with this search term. Galaxy Note8. According to AdWords, it’s 4,400.

adwords keyword planner - galaxy data analytics

MOZ Keyword Tool

OK, same keyword. Let’s see how it performs in MOZ. They say 6.5k-9.3k. That seems to be a pretty big discrepancy.

moz keyword tool - galaxy data analytics

SERPs Keyword Tool

Same keyword. OK so according to SERPs there are no search results for Galaxy Note8.

serps keyword tool - galaxy data analytics

SEM Rush Keyword Tool

Let’s see what SEM Rush has to say about it. Calculating…calculating… 3.6k. We’ve got a 0 for the SERPs. We’re seeing some pretty big discrepancies here.

Keyword Search Volume Data Not Adding Up

These are not the same number but these are the same keywords. We obviously know that there’s going to be search volume at this current time for iPhone X and less, but certainly an interest for Galaxy Note8. But the discrepancies we see here are pretty big. It’s important that you do have your own analytics tracking for your marketing. AdWords provides analytics for you inside of the AdWords platform and Google Analytics, which are actually fantastic.

keyword tool comparison data not adding up

Google Analytics Alternative

But in order to back up and make sure that these numbers are accurate, I strongly suggest that you have your own open source tracking software on your site that you can verify that the numbers are correct. So that you own the numbers. Or, if you don’t want to use Google Analytics, have your own tracking because you don’t trust that Analytics is in your website or wants your information or sell your information if you’re worried about that. That’s a certain interest to a lot of businesses.

Verify Data

It’s very important that you verify that the numbers are accurate on your end as far as your conversion data, your keyword tracking, all of it; make sure you know what’s getting you your money. You know that it’s good to have the conversions set up for you and your analytics tracked and reporting done for you by a Google Analytics certified company like Online Marketing Techs.
