Gumroad Analytics – What’s included?
Gumroad analytics gives you just an overview of your sales and audience. There’s no in-depth analytics and reports which you need to grow your business.
However, they have done a great job in setting up conversion events for Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, Twitter ads & Google Adwords. But again, you will see only the sales and conversion rate for the products.
Here’s what Gumroad analytics shows-
Sales
This will show you the total sales you made, total product views, the quantity of product sold for a selected date range.
Products
By default, you get an overview of all of your Gumroad products at a glance.
To view the sales of a particular product (or group of product), you can select the products you’d like to view by clicking on the link next to the revenue total labeled ‘All products’.
Audience
This will show the approximate location of your customers on the world map based on the IP of the purchase. More the sales from a country, the darker it will be shown in green.
You can hover over any country to view the number of product views and the absolute sales amount in dollars from that country.
Referrers
The Referrers dashboard shows all referrers to the selected product. The number of views, purchases and conversion percentage, as well as the absolute dollar amount of sales for each referrer, are shown.
Consumption Analytics
Gumroad’s consumption analytics dashboard helps you know your audience better, and learn how they are interacting with your content.
You can track how many people have read your book, the number of times a video file has been opened, the number of times people listened to an audio file, total number of downloads, etc.
Event Tracking
For each product, you can view the customer flow – the number of views, number of clicks and number of purchases in Google Analytics.
