Why do authors and illustrators need analytics?

As a creator (because let's face it, what you do is pure magic), you've got:
 

  1. A website
  2. Your creative works (books, illustrations, or both)
  3. An audience waiting to discover you

Analytics are your secret weapon to understand your audience - their origins, interests, and how they find you. This knowledge is gold for readers, agents, and publishers alike.


Page visitor profiling: know your audience

  2. Language: • Determined by browser settings • Helps you decide on potential translations or language-specific content
  3. Social Networks: • Track which platforms drive traffic to your site • Focus your social media efforts where they matter most
