This document discusses tools and methods for analyzing user behavior on websites. It describes how tools like ClickTale and server log files can track user mouse movements, scroll reach, hot zones on pages and other behaviors. The data collected can then be used to understand user engagement, troubleshoot issues, and improve conversions. Various analysis methods are mentioned like funnel visualization, click vs view metrics, measuring visitor loyalty, recency, time on site and page depth. Filters, trends, predictive analytics and custom reports are highlighted as ways to gain insights from the behavior data.

20. Filter
Text string or regular expression that is applied
to incoming traffic data. Filters are used to
manipulate this data before it appears in

21. Predictive Analytics
Improve Our Future Based On What We Know From Our Past
Business Intelligence
1) Data cleaning takes 80% of the time -- Analyzing takes 20%
2) BE aware of GIGO (garbage in, garbage out).

necessary, preferable, and
possible)
“Give me the grace to accept the things I cannot measure, the courage to measure
the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference”
"If we do this then we start small, see what we find, if it is actionable then build on
it some more and then check again for actionability. If we don't find actionability
then scrap it and do other things."
23. What is our plus?
No information loss because all original data is recorded and stored
Every analysis and every filter is executed based on the complete data set and
always in real time. This means that the data is not aggregated (summarized) and
not sampled.
Retrospective segmentation is possible at any time. All data and analyses can be
evaluated retrospectively, on-the-fly, and
at any time with any correlations and links that you wish, and can be filtered
using multiple filters.
Change filter criteria whenever you want and take account of other
analyses, e.g., for the previous month or a different keyword.
Drill down analytics to the lowest granular level, the individual
user, i.e., analytics data can be evaluated in terms of individual user behavior.
24. What is splunk?
Splunk is software to search, monitor and
analyze machine-generated data by
applications, systems and IT infrastructure at
scale via a web-style interface. Splunk captures,
indexes and correlates real-time data in a
searchable repository from which it can
generate graphs, reports, alerts, dashboards
and visualizations.
