Editor's Notes

  • #2 Here are some of the things we’ve learned along the way.
  • #3 yesterday was twitter, today is Google Buzz, Tomorrow is (?)
  • #22 Communities are the new CRM. We’ll strive to tie a person’s activity to their identity; and this will cause all sorts of privacy concerns.
  • #23 Much of the challenge of monitoring tools is focused around drilling down to an individual session -- to see what happened -- while still staying high-level enough to see patterns.
  • #24 Big split between “scorecards” and “optimization tools”: Some products just let you put out messages; some let you measure; some let you respond; some tie to analytics. But the optimization cycle looks like this.
  • #25 Big split between “scorecards” and “optimization tools”: Some products just let you put out messages; some let you measure; some let you respond; some tie to analytics. But the optimization cycle looks like this.
  • #26 Big split between “scorecards” and “optimization tools”: Some products just let you put out messages; some let you measure; some let you respond; some tie to analytics. But the optimization cycle looks like this.
  • #27 Big split between “scorecards” and “optimization tools”: Some products just let you put out messages; some let you measure; some let you respond; some tie to analytics. But the optimization cycle looks like this.
  • #28 Big split between “scorecards” and “optimization tools”: Some products just let you put out messages; some let you measure; some let you respond; some tie to analytics. But the optimization cycle looks like this.
  • #29 Big split between “scorecards” and “optimization tools”: Some products just let you put out messages; some let you measure; some let you respond; some tie to analytics. But the optimization cycle looks like this.
  • #30 Big split between “scorecards” and “optimization tools”: Some products just let you put out messages; some let you measure; some let you respond; some tie to analytics. But the optimization cycle looks like this.
  • #31 Big split between “scorecards” and “optimization tools”: Some products just let you put out messages; some let you measure; some let you respond; some tie to analytics. But the optimization cycle looks like this.
  • #32 Big split between “scorecards” and “optimization tools”: Some products just let you put out messages; some let you measure; some let you respond; some tie to analytics. But the optimization cycle looks like this.
  • #33 Big split between “scorecards” and “optimization tools”: Some products just let you put out messages; some let you measure; some let you respond; some tie to analytics. But the optimization cycle looks like this.
  • #34 http://awe.sm & http://rippl3.com are working on a solution to Social Media Tracking.
  • #35 Just as analytics shifted from attention to conversion to optimization, so social networking is going to shift. Marketers will demand ROI on their messages. This doesn’t mean social networks need justification -- only that marketers will strive for traceability through things like URL encoding.
  • #36 If you’re doing it right, you’ll be able to see performance, analytics, and traffic data in one place -- eventually
  • #37 And yes, everyone needs complete web monitoring. That’s why they sell it at Target.
  • #38 Thanks for the time. If you want to reach us or follow us online, here’s how. And if you want to pre-order our book (which would freak out our editors) we’d love it. We’re shameless self-promoters.
