Why Web Analytics? Why should you test and measure?
Your website is up and looks good. The content is well written and targets the potential audience for your products, services or message. Keywords are strategically integrated into the content, headings, links and meta tags. Maybe you are already taking advantage of some online advertising techniques like PPC, banner ads or email marketing.
Now what?
Do you put your Internet Marketing efforts on auto-pilot and contentedly fill orders, answer phone calls and emails, ship product, sign-up new clients and enjoy your newfound success? With careful planning and diligent execution thus far, the benefits should begin. However, like any business process be it manufacturing, distribution, sales, quality assurance, customer service, et al, Internet Marketing must be monitored, measured, tested and controlled to achieve the best chance of success.
