How does one justify that? Do they honestly feel that it is worth nothing or are they just being cheap? Either way, it sucks.

I have many, many blogs in my RSS reader under "work" that are not strictly web analytics, though... they may be more like "interactive marketing" or I have several on presentation. Do you have any thoughts or strong feelings about how careful we should be that the topics are geared toward web analytics? Part of me thinks that if it's interesting to me as a practitioner, it may be interesting to others.... not sure. I’ll give this a shot.

]]> Comment on Your Web Analytics Software Is Junk by Bob Page http://bobpage.net/2007/05/13/your-web-analytics-software-is-junk/#comment-675 Bob Page Wed, 01 Aug 2007 03:42:23 +0000 http://bobpage.net/2007/05/13/your-web-analytics-software-is-junk/#comment-675 Hi Peter -- the business questions are as varied as the businesses that use the web. This isn't a cop-out answer: analytics vendors simply aren't thinking about how to present data in ways that allow users to ask and then answer business questions. I'm not talking about natural language - I'm talking about business events, business drivers, business levers. What analytics software is approaching problems from a business perspective? Instead we get rollups and crosstabs and multidimensional foobar, starting with the low-level data and summing it, then slicing it by day/hour/demo. That's not business, especially in the web world. Best of luck in your new venture! When do we learn more? Hi Peter — the business questions are as varied as the businesses that use the web.
