Question 1

Find the number of active users (1 Day, 7 Day, 14 Day, and 28 Day) during January 2020. Calculate the ratio of 1 Day Active Users to 28 Day Active Users, expressed as a percentage. Typically, this ratio is considered a measure of the “stickiness” or retention of users for your website. It should be 10% or higher for sites where content is refreshed daily, like news sites, or where the site derives its revenue primarily from advertising. For social sites like Facebook and WhatsApp, the ratio could be a lot higher (> 50%). For Ecommerce sites like CompanyOne, where usage is less frequent but of higher monetary value, the ratio is typically lower than 10%.

Also, compare the graphs for 1 Day Active Users to 28 Day Active Users. What conclusions can you derive? Please provide a screenshot to support your analysis.

Note: Active Users refers to the number of users who visited the CompanyOne website within the last 1, 7, 14 or 28 days looking back from the last day of the period which in this case is January 31, 2020.

The metrics in the report are relative to the last day in the date range. Given that your date range is January 1 to January 31:

1 Day Active Users: the number of unique users who initiated sessions on your site or app on January 31 (the last day of your date range).

7 Day Active Users: the number of unique users who initiated sessions on your site or app from January 25 through January 31 (the last 7 days of your date range).

14 Day Active Users: the number of unique users who initiated sessions on your site or app from January 18 through January 31 (the last 14 days of your date range).

28 Day Active Users: the number of unique users who initiated sessions on your site or app from January 4 through January 31 (the entire 28 days of your date range).

Question 2

Plot graphs of 1 Day Active Users for the second quarter in 2018 and the second quarter in 2019. Compare the number of active users for both periods from the two plots.

Question 10

The two things every online business like CompanyOne cares about: users who convert (purchase a product) and users who don’t. Understanding users who convert (Converters) will help CompanyOne refine successful aspects of theirmarketing, and show them where they can improve their efforts to reach users who demonstrate untapped potential (Non- Converters).

Developing insights into why certain users aren’t converting lets them address the weak spots in how they approach them. For the purpose of this analysis, CompanyOne wishes to focus on the Back to School shopping season (July 15, 2019 to September 15, 2019).

CompanyOne wishes to obtain statistics of users, sessions, sessions per user, page views, average session duration and bounce rate for these two segments (Converters and Non-Converters). Comment on these statistics.
