Demo of My Personal SBI! Account

No better way to see how SBI! works than to catch a sneak peek of me using my own account. SBI! owners, if you're interested in doing something like this, check out Camtasia. You can use it for free for 30 days.

Thanks Tracy, it was so much fun making it. Can't wait to do more screencast stuff.

Awesome idea! When I first read your blog post title I thought it said "Threaten your computers with screencasts" lmao

That was great, Lisa! Any chance you could make one for us SBI!'ers on how to interpret all of the traffic data, such as entry and exit pages? I know SBI! provides that information, but it's really neat to hear you say it and get your thoughts.

Hi Melissa,

Thank you. I may not do a video for that but can explain here.

Entry pages are simply the pages that people enter your site on. An exit page is the last page someone views before leaving your site. Any other questions on those stats?

Thank you, Lisa. I've heard you say that those stats can help you learn about your site so I guess if they are entering and exiting on the same page, that isn't a good thing! Is there anything I'm missing when it comes to "seeing" any trends with those stats?

True. One of the things you need to determine is what keyword phrase people are using to find that page. Google Analytics gives much better info than SBI!. Even though SBI!'s stats give you the entry and exit pages you don't know which keywords they used. So that's when I turn to Google Analytics for more in depth keyword info.

When you learn what keywords people are using you may discover why they are exiting. Maybe your article isn't touching upon that phrase soon enough so they get impatient, things like that.

Thanks, Lisa. That makes sense and in fact, there is a page I need to fix so because it has a high bounce rate. Like you mentioned, there information is there, but it must not be up at the top so people are leaving as soon as they click on it.

Thanks again!
