But if you want to predict how customers will respond in the future, there is one place to turn&#8212;predictive analytics. By learning from your abundant historical data, predictive analytics provides the marketer something beyond standard business reports and sales forecasts: actionable predictions for each customer.

			<title>7 Web Analytics B2B Metrics Mistakes</title>

Here are some pitfalls for the following metrics:       Number of Leads by Keyword      It is very important to measure conversions by keyword. This lets you know where to focus your marketing efforts. However, many B2B sites and especially those with high cost items have a relatively small number of conversions. In addition, the conversion may occur:             During the 2nd, or later visits when the original keyword used is now lost (due to cookie erasing, subsequent search using product name, etc)      By a coworker of the original searcher who lands directly on site since the URL is now known          Since the numbers are small and may not be traceable to the original search, in many cases it is statistically invalid to decide on actionable items based on the number of leads by keyword.

			<title>Top 10 Things I Wish I Knew When I Started in Web Analytics #3</title>
			<description>Continuing our Things I Wish I Knew... series, Daniel Shields offers his Top 10:  1. Not Everyone Knows What You are Saying  The ecommerce workplace is made up of very diverse areas of expertise. Where a few folks here and there might get what you are saying with little effort, most of the people whom you work with are not steeped in statistical understanding, much less its vernacular. For the good of the company, and the sanity of the analyst, it might be advisable to find an in-house reader who gets most of it, but can point out where language might be an issue.  2. Customer Support Exists for a Reason  A major impulse to try to overcome is the same which keeps a person from asking for directions in Culpepper, Virginia. You might know you are lost, and you have a pretty good idea that people know how to help you, but for some reason, it means more if you turn the map around and fold it different ways a dozen times to see if it makes a difference. Taking this ego-shot and allowing it...

			<title>Analyzing Online Advertising using Dart</title>
			<description>When analyzing online advertising begin by looking at impressions. Delivered impressions tell you how many people were exposed to your ad. Impressions are passive.

			<title>Review: The Web Analytics Report 2008</title>
			<description>The Web Analytics Report 2008 is a long report. No, it is a very long report, writes its principle analyst, Phil Kemelor, who is vice president of strategic consulting for Semphonic, in the reports opening words. That is intentional. It is 343 pages of user guide, thorough backgrounders on web analytics applications, technology and acquisition -- and the meat of the report, in-depth reviews of 15 web analytics products and services. Long reports are bad when they are poorly organized. This is not a bad report. Nobody should have to read the whole thing, but that is only because nobody should have to read everything about every product.  There is no perfect technology, so good reviewers, particularly in emerging markets, must go beyond capabilities and reveal whats missing, what doesnt work and how to avoid known mistakes. It is thrilling to know what one could do, but it is profitable also to know what not to do. This report has no shortage of reasonable skepticism and warnings. The...

			<title>Top 10 Things I Wish I Knew When I Started in Web Analytics</title>
			<description>I remember what it was like to walk through the door at my brand new job, my very first job as a web analyst, wondering what I&#8217;d gotten myself into. In retrospect, what did I wind up learning the hard way? What would been helpful to know up front? What should I have been prepared to expect? With that in mind, here are 10 things I wish I knew when I started in web analytics:      You will sit between the techies and the marketers. Figuratively, and maybe literally. Make friends on both sides of the fence.    You will learn all about your business. Not just the stats part. Not just the web part. The work you do in web analytics will only make sense once you&#8217;ve put it in the general context of your business.    Ahem, what is this thing you call a Visit? Know your standard web metric definitions by heart, and be able to recite them concisely for people who ask. They will ask.    Dirty, dirty, dirty. Numbers wont match, they won&#8217;t add up, they won&#8217;t make sense, sometimes they won&#8217;t even...

Thesis on Online Behavior Analysis and my present job as the responsible for Applied Web Analytics at easynet search marketing, I have been reading a lot of academic and industry papers on the fields of Web Mining and Web Analytics.

			<title>Nedstat and GX join forces</title>
			<description>&lt;p&gt;Over the past few years GX and Nedstat have worked together to deliver website implementations for various customers such as Schiphol Group, SBS Broadcasting, Nationale Nederlanden, Ajax and Radio 538. During this time both company&#8217;s noticed a rising demand for a generic solution that both new and existing customers could profit from. The introduction of open API&#8217;s in the Sitestat platform and the GX WebManager 9 has allowed for a close integration based on open standards. GX WebManager 9 offers a component-based architecture, enabling it to add and instantly use components on a website. Therefore, installation and configuration of the solution is very easy.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The integrated solution consists of a WebManager Component Bundle (WCB) that makes it possible to show Nedstat&#8217;s Sitestat application on a website that is developed in the GX WebManager. The component also has several complementary tools to configure the integration between GX WebManager and Sitestat.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The following data are now instantly measurable:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;All pages and other content items&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Click-outs that register what documents have been downloaded and what external links have been clicked on&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Loading time of pages&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;All standard Sitestat characteristics regarding visitors (IP-address, location, browser, OS)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;You can download the GX Sitestat WCB for free at &lt;a rel=&quot;external&quot; href=&quot;http://www.wcmexchange.com/&quot;&gt;www.wcmexchange.com&lt;/a&gt;, the GX online marketplace for WebManager Component Bundles.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

			<title>NEDSTAT INTRODUCES MOBILE ANALYTICS</title>
			<description>&lt;p&gt;Sitestat users can see exactly what content consumers using mobile devices look at, if they convert and which mobile devices convert best. The new reports work for both mobile and normal sites and measure all mobile devices including those that don&#8217;t support Javascript.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Michiel Berger, Chief Innovations at Nedstat: &#8220;Now that mobile devices are becoming more advanced, people will become used to accessing web content on the go. Website owners need to know if and how mobile users access their site. How is their experience? Does the page fit on the screen, are all pages visited? When this is right they can think about their online offering; how can the content and navigation be optimised for mobile visitors, and can they even develop new true mobile services. We allow our Sitestat customers to take the first step towards the mobile web by showing them what is happening, on their site, today.&#8221;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Piet Middelkoop, internet consultant at Dutch Railway (NS), has been testing the new reports: &quot;Our customers want access to our online schedules and other information while travelling. Flat fee mobile internet subscriptions and web-enabled telephones have made this possible for a bigger audience. Since working closely together with Nedstat, we have seen clear trends in mobile brands and types being used to visit our mobile site. We are very enthusiastic about insights like this because it helps us target and optimise our mobile offering in a very effective way.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The new mobile analytics reports are available to all Sitestat users at no extra cost as of today. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Further details and screenshots of the new mobile analytics reports can be found at &lt;u&gt;blog.sitestat.com&lt;/u&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

			<description>WASHINGTON, DC-- April 21, 2008 -- Today the Web Analytics Association (WAA) and the Interactive Advertising Bureau (IAB) announced their intention to work more closely together to increase consistency and clarity around Web metrics standards. Both organizations have independently made strides toward the standardization of terms commonly used in the advertising and analytics fields. The purpose of the new partnership is to better communicate the goals of metrics standards to the two organizations respective memberships and target audiences, as well as to better convey the goals of each organization and the subtle differences that may occur among metrics standards.   The WAA and the IAB have historically had different goals for metrics standardization. The WAAs mission is to foster the growth and evolution of the Web analytics industry by encouraging that the name and definition of each metric is consistent across vendors.

Released in Q4 2007, the online program offers students a comprehensive set of Web marketing, Web analytics, online marketing optimization and online marketing analytics skills.  I strongly recommend the Certificate in Web Intelligence, commented one student. I am currently taking a few courses for this certificate, and it has helped me develop a deeper understanding of how web intelligence is an integral part of presenting actionable data to our companies.  In a recent 2008 outlook survey from the WAA, roughly 50 percent of respondents indicated they will invest in training, 38 percent in consulting and 36 percent in staffing in 2008. The survey results suggest that while the right marketing...

Moving forward, WAA members will receive a 15 percent discount on conference registration.

			<title>Eric T. Peterson on Objectives, Definitions and Emerging KPIs -- New White Paper Explores Metrics for Online Video</title>
			<description>The study explores the emerging direct measurement model for multimedia content by examining several common business cases for deploying video. It provides a new set of definitions and key performance indicators (KPIs) designed to help companies effectively track their investment in video based content.  The three primary business objectives for multimedia content on the Internet are to sell advertising, to promote viral marketing and to drive visitor engagement, says Eric Peterson. Marketers must look for standards and best practices to monitor and evaluate the success of these objectives. As the clear frontrunner in video analytics with Stream Sense&#8482;, Nedstat was the ideal partner to co-author this study with.  Michiel Berger: The popularity of online video is explosive and the readiness of organizations to shift major advertising spend to this channel will continue to grow at high speed.

			<title>Creating and Managing the Analytical Business Culture</title>
			<description>Home :: Education :: Certification :: Knowledge Required for Certification :: Culture Creating an RFP: Overview Web analytics products are classified as software applications. As such, and irrespective of the implementation method, each product has specific technical features and requirements. As part of selecting a Web Analytics product or vendor, it is critical to understand these technical aspects and identify which ones are applicable or feasible for your organization.  To better understand the various technologies in a product, the web analytics product is seen as consisting of three different, logical layers: 1) reporting and visualization, 2) processing analysis and integration, and 3) clickstream data collection.  Over the past 8 years, web analytics vendors have offered their products in multiple delivery models and through different pricing options. This module describes the pros and cons of each model and having a clear understanding of the pricing models is essential in...

			<title>Measuring Marketing Campaigns Online</title>
			<description>Home :: Education :: Certification :: Knowledge Required for Certification :: Marketing Measuring Beyond the Click-Through: Overview Point-Per-Click and Affiliate advertising are an investment that is easy to justify since you only pay for actions. Essentially, no traffic means no cost &#8211; some might call that a no-lose proposition.  However, it is important to target successful keyword programs and specific affiliates by applying science to the process of selection. You have to go beyond looking solely at unique visits by finding KPIs that answer your true KPQs (Key Performance Questions):  This module helps you to decide what outcome you are aiming for in order to identify the right keyword and affiliate candidates. In performance evaluations, you must consider direct recent conversions (single visit) and delayed latent conversions (multiple visits). In particular, latent conversion analysis can impact the decision making process.  This module includes two case studies: Improve and...

			<title>WAA Certification</title>
			<description>Home :: Education :: Certification The Web Analytics Association Certification Test will provide a common reference point for understanding the depth and breadth of knowledge in the field for both practitioners and employers. Certification is a statement of competence in the web analytics field for the certified individual. In general, certification enhances the likelihood of employment and advancement within a field. Benefits include the probability of a higher than average salary for practitioners and a more productive human asset for employers.  The Board of the WAA has directed the Certification Test, like the WAA and UBC Award of Achievement in Web Analytics, to focus on the analytical and business skills of the applicant. The test will not cover the technical or implementation skills associated with web analytics, and will not be specific to any tool. This means that practitioners do not need an IT background to pass the Certification Test.  The process of developing the WAA...

			<description>Home :: Education :: Certification :: Knowledge Required for Certification Thanks for your interest in the Knowledge Required for Certification by the Web Analytics Association (WAA). This document contains a detailed overview of the knowledge required to pass the Web Analytics Association certification test.  As such, this document is also a detailed overview of the educational material provided in the four online courses making up the Award of Achievement in Web Analytics offered by the WAA and University of British Columbia Continuing Studies (UBC).  Taking these four courses is not required to sit for the certification test.  However, the knowledge contained in these four courses will be required to pass the test. We expect many web analytics professionals should be able to pass the test without taking the courses.  Potential applicants for the certification should review this document and decide if they possess all of the knowledge required to pass the test. If further education...

			<title>Web Analytics for Site Optimization</title>
			<description>Home :: Education :: Certification :: Knowledge Required for Certification :: Website   Introduction to Audience &amp; Personas: Overview This module examines the pros and cons of usability in terms of how customer needs are met. Usability studies focus on use, not the user. Many usability professionals have now moved their core philosophy to focus on User-Centered Design (UCD). Keep in mind that a usable site can&#8217;t overcome an inability to meet the motivations and desires of users.  Sections in this module discuss how to do scenario design in order to improve conversion. You design persuasive scenarios by turning the information you have on your users into personas. A competitive analysis from your visitor&#8217;s point of view (persona) is very, very valuable.  The Web is about links, connections, and the interactivity of information. Hypertext connects related pieces of information with pre-established or user-created links, allowing a user to follow associative trails. If you take the time...
