Google Analytics is quickly becoming the de facto Web analytics tool. But many people fail to correctly configure the application for optimal performance. They simply slap the tags on their website without realizing there are some settings that should be configured to control and manipulate the data.

As the old saying goes: "Garbage in, garbage out." We don't want to fill Google Analytics with garbage or it will be useless when it comes time for analysis. In this Take 10 Justin will walk you through some of the basic settings in Google Analytics to help make sure your data is correct and useful.
