Understanding Web Analytics and The Infusionsoft Lead Generation Tracking Goodness
Since the dawn of the internet – certainly the dawn of high speed internet – website owners now have the ability to KNOW WITH CERTAINTY how their marketing efforts are doing.
There are a plethora of free and/or inexpensive tools for tracking such as:

All of these give you the insight you need to
Infusionsoft can track site visits down to the individual so even if your prospect visits your site from their computer and smart phone it will show 2 page views but only one contact.
Infusionsoft analytics definitions:
Visitors – site traffic that we can’t tie to a specific contact, yet.
Contacts – we know who they are but don’t have any orders/subscriptions tied to their contact record.
Customers – we know who they are and they have an order/subscription tied to their contact record.
How does Infusionsoft link a visitor to a Contact?
When a Contact clicks a link in an email.
Fill out a web form.
Place an order via Order Form or Shopping Cart.
In other words, Infusionsoft is not a mind reader or Big Brother. The Contact must do something to be tracked.

See their Operating System, Pages Viewed, when they viewed the pages, the Web Forms they filled out, etc.
