THE NEW ERA OF WEB ANALYTICS. ACTIONABLE DATA, BETTER DECISIONS.Giorgos Vareloglou - Mindworks.
YOU CAN’T MANAGE, WHAT YOU CANNOT MEASURE.
YOU CAN’T CHANGE, WHAT YOU CANNOT MEASURE.
YOU CAN’T CHANGE, WHAT YOU CANNOT MEASURE.But.... “not everything that's measurable is meaningful and that not everything that is meaningful is measurable. Measurement of things that really matter is tough”.
THIS IS ANALYTICS ALL ABOUT
CHANGE
LET’S GO BACK IN TIME.
ANALYTICS BRIEF HISTORY
* At the very beginning. Just a simple page. One request
* Then came server logs... With more info (hits).
* People got curious. Web analytics was officially born
* ‘95-’96: Page Counters
* Log file analysis (WebTrends)
* Modern Java-Script Tagging

“THREE LAYERS OF SO WHAT TEST”
Avinash Kaushik Author, Digital Marketing Evangelist - Google
Ask every web metric you report the question "so what" three times.
Each question provides an answer that in turn raises another question (a "so what" again). If at the third "so what" you don't get a recommendation for an action you should take, you have the wrong metric. Kill it.
This brutal recommendation is to force you to confront this reality: If you can't take action, some action (any action!), based on your analysis, why are you reporting data?
