21 Reasons why you don’t need Analytics and some other cool finds.
I came across this great piece 21 Reasons Why You Do NOT Need Web Analytics at webanalyticsworld.net after reading Jordan’s You Don’t Need Web Analytics piece over at marketingpilgrim.com, I won’t bore you with the details here but both articles are worth a quick look and certainly true.
Anna Linnea, who inspired my article 10 of the Sexiest Web Headers on the Planet went and changed her header but that’s OK because it’s still pretty cool and she wrote a very cool technical piece on WordPress comments and PHP that I think is well worth the read. Chris Bavota also has a new piece called A New Comment Editor.
Blog Oh Blog has a new contest (WordPress Theme Design Contest – Win $300) and Dosh Dosh has a really cool piece on Twitter Marketing: Why You Don’t Need to Mass Follow Users, which goes back to one of my earlier problems with Twitter and why I don’t get Twitter.
OK, I’m off to YouTube for the rest of the day but let me know if there are any really cool sites you think I should check out.
Hi Christopher,
I also read Dosh Dosh’s article about Twitter a few days back and I think it’s terrific! Actually, I’m writing a similar entry right now about the subject.
About the Blog Oh Blog contest, it does sounds nice but what I don’t like about it is that they’ll keep the winning themes for themselves… :( I was willing to enter the contest until I read that part :P
Héctor | SEO Blog’s last blog post..Comment Policy Updated – Keywords In The Name Field
@Hector, yeah I agree it’s not quite right that they’re winning for themselves but … it’s a great contest regardless if for nothing else but practice.
21 Reasons Why You Do NOT Need Web Analytics was not convincing for me.
Looks like viral marketing’s title :)
I would say..not a much informative post. as andrey said .. virsl marketing ..
Dave’s last blog post..15 Best collection of website resources for Fonts
Wow I did not read that article at Doshdosh, but it’s in the same camp of ideas as the one I have been recently writing at my blog. In my post I more or less rant about the mass followers at twitter. You might find that one interesting as well.
Just read the article about the 21 reasons…and I agree with the conclusion.
The twitter article was definitely worth reading and raised some excellent points. And by the way, I’m with you: I don’t get Twitter either.
I have followed Anna Linea for long. I am also taking part in the Blog Oh Blog contest. wish me good luck.
James @ Quit Smoking’s last blog post..What The Best Ways To Stop Smoking Weed?
wow, I’ve never been accused of taking part in viral marketing before … thanks!
Actually, if you’d like to know I choose the topic because I’m not very creative and the inspiration for todays summary post was the post over at webanalyticsworld.net which I really thought was worth sharing.

Improving your conversion rate starts with tracking and web analytics. Without the accurate information, you cannot analyze the activities of your visitors. When you analyze the activities of your visitors and compare the results to what you would like to see happen on your site, page by page, then you can make changes to achieve those goals.
