Kirk Wins Illinois Republican Primary

In the first midterm election of the year, with the U.S. Senate seat once occupied by President Barack Obama up for grabs, voters sent a moderate five-term congressman from a wealthy suburb to face off against a 33-year-old state Treasurer who used to play basketball with the president. Mark Kirk, the Republican congressman, won his primary by nearly 40 percentage points, ac… Continue

Watch the full Apple iPad Keynote online

Apple unveiled their mobile computing tablet on January 27 at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts Theater in San Francisco. Many tech sites provided live updates from the event on their blogs and some even broadcasted the event live to the web via their iPhone. The quality was somewhat lacking in these broadcasts and it was often difficult to see clear images of the presentation and… Continue

The best running shoe may be none at all, U.S. researchers said on Wednesday

Runners who eschew shoes may be less likely to do serious injury to their feet, because they hold their feet differently, Daniel Lieberman of Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts and colleagues found. Writing in the journal Nature, they said runners who wear shoes tend to hit the ground with their heels first, whereas barefoot runners put the balls of the feet down first. "… Continue

iPerceptions + WASP: my take

By Stéphane Hamel I'm really proud and happy to announce iPerceptions has acquired the WASP product line and technology. You can read the official press release, but I also wanted to share some personal thoughts about what it means for me and for the 11,000 WASP users around the world. Three years in the making When I started working on WASP, around November of 2006, I was a part-time web analytics practitioner trying to solve, or at least simplify a real issue: how to check if our web analyti… Continue

Everything New is Old Again

By Christopher Pam and Dany Di Tullio EvE Online is space-based massively multiplayer online game, or “MMO” as the industry jargon goes. Ever year, the CCP team (EvE’s developers) produce 2 free expansions for their game, chock full of new features, items and ships to be bought, sold, flown, traded and destroyed. While the player base appreciates all the shiny goodness that comes around expansion time, they grudgingly acknowledge that with awesome new toys comes an army of bugs. While a game l… Continue

If You Want to Truly Understand Something...

If you want to truly understand something, try to change it. ~Kurt Lewin Changing the website is a big venture for our clients – and expectations on the outcome are always high. Eyes often turn to their voice of customer surveys to track the outcome. The initial results can be hard to take. Consistently we notice a dip, often fairly significant, in how the users rate the website during and after the change. While no two changes are the same, the dip and subsequent recovery are very consistent… Continue

Take Your Canary Down the Opinion Mine

Nowadays, social media and blogs have never had a stronger impact on products, businesses, and even individuals. Moving in this direction, it is becoming increasingly insufficient to only dig into quantitative data for insight. A growing trend is currently shifting towards sentiment analysis, accounting more for opinions and emotions. I may not be entirely exaggerating when I say that something like Twitter is capable of making or breaking a brand, as people are now starting to refer to these s… Continue

Better Shipping, Better Shopping

In our recent blog post about shopping cart crimes, we touched on the issue of shopping cart abandonment as a main problem for e-commerce websites. In hopes of rectifying this matter, online retailers are shifting their focus to the checkout process by being more accurate and transparent with their shipping costs and policies. Last month, Forrester Research released "The State of Retailing Online 2009: Merchandising Report,” where it surveyed 117 online retailers. Results revealed that 79% of t… Continue

After four wonderful years working at iPerceptions

After four wonderful years working at iPerceptions, I have made the very difficult decision to move on (this coming Friday will be my last day). A personal one, and a decision that I have spent a great deal of time marinating on….in the end though one that obviously feels bitter / sweet. I joined iPerceptions back in mid 2005. At the time, I had spent the prior 10 years or so building round one (Web 1.0 – hate the term) of the Internet. My career started in 1996 where I built one of the first v… Continue

Invitation on arrival: the rationale

Why do we intercept visitors only on arrival to a website? Why is this method the only sampling option available for the 4Q online survey? Why not intercept visitors once they've clicked deeper into the site architecture--in other words, why not intercept visitors who are more loyal, more engaged? Sound random sampling, within the context of an online survey… Continue

Web analysts - what happened on June 10th?

I love playing around with Flaptor's Twist trending engine for Twitter. Forget about the basket of third-rate applications that focus only on individual tweeters or the useful but not-analytic-enough trending/search engines like the old Summize or TweetTabs. Twist is an engine tha… Continue

From 1to1media.com: Finding the Most Accurate Measure of Website Success by our own Jonathan Levitt

Finding the Most Accurate Measure of Website Success For the past decade online marketers have focused on a single metric, almost to the exclusion of all others: conversion. They've implemented costly Web analytics systems, spent hours optimizing the "conversion funnel" to get more people to the shopping cart, and, above all, have focused on getting as many people to complete a purchase as possible. But conversion rates among leading retailers still hover around 2 to 3 percent... Read the rest… Continue

When is task completion the ultimate online survey metric?

This post is a mini-addendum to last week's 5 reasons post. Online survey users often ask us to identify when task completion is the most appropriate measure of success for their diverse visitor segments. Is it most appropriate for buyers? Browsers? The truth is that task completion is always a very powerful measure of success, no matter what task a website visitor is seeking to accomplish, but the stats pro… Continue
