TimothyAdam, This is a great wealth of resources you posted here. Google Analytics has been one of my most resourceful business tools I use on a daily basis. It helps me track trends, best times to list, and truly helps me understand when I am reaching my target market. I love having the content feature, see what my most popular items are.
