If you’re a small business website owner, you may often find yourself away from your computer. As long as you have your iPhone with you, you can use the following apps to monitor your website and social media platforms and stay in touch with your business.
1. Analytics App
Analytics App allows you to quickly see what traffic your website is getting and where it’s coming from. Just start a new marketing campaign? Keep an eye on Analytics to see performance results.
Every Drupal website that we build includes a Google Analytics integration. Simply sign up for a free account and then log into Google when opening the Analytics App.
