A Non-Exhaustive Look at Some Free and Non-Free Web Analytics Packages
,----[ Quote ]
| But more, Iâd love a web analytics package
| that understood what Avinash Kaushik talks
| about: outcomes. Metrics are good in that
| they allow me to measure performance
| indirectly, but they donât correlate to my
| business, because they donât answer the
| questions that I need answers to. Who is
| reading? What are they reading? What are
| they asking? And so on.
