Top 10 Tips for Learning Digital Analytics — Optizent

Here are my top 10 tips to help you learn and master Digital Analytics. Even though I am focusing on Digital Analytics, these same tips can be applied to pretty much anything that you want to learn.

1. Create your own site or blog — This will help you gain practical experience as well as help you retain your learnings. You can easily create it using WordPress or any other tool/platform. Which platform you use, make sure it provides you the ability to insert Google Tag Manager code.
2. Find a person you would like to learn from — Each individual has a unique teaching style. My style differs from other instructors. Find the person whose teaching style and content align with how you think, work, and learn. This will help you better grasp the concepts.
3. Set aside 10–30 minutes a working day to learn something new — Each person has their own learning style. I like to learn something small and new each day in just a few mins rather than overloading my brain with a lot of information. This helps me retain what I learn. That is how I teach too. I create short and to-the-point lessons rather than wasting learners’ time.
4. Practice what you learn — Whatever you learn should be applied immediately else you will not be able to retain it. The website/blog that you created will help you apply all your learnings. If you learn how to implement the GA tag, then apply it to your blog/site. If you learn how to analyze the data, then apply it to your blog/site.
