What sources of data represent the complete user experience of a customer who visits your site and completes a purchase?</p>
<p>You might be surprised to learn that there are numerous such sources &#8211; all of which are valid in their own right. There&#8217;s a myriad awaiting anyone who has been too narrow while taking to task the organism of site analysis and it&#8217;s many-pronged corpus of data.</p>
<p>So, then how do you best categorize such data so that you can utilize it? And, how do you then capture and learn from the data from each category? Here&#8217;s an answer you will probably not want to hear, but one that attempts to reflect the state of analytics as it pertains to your web site and it&#8217;s users.</p>
<p>5 Identifiable and distinct categories might be defined in the span of user experience or customer lifetime:</p>
<table style="height: 180px;" border="0" >
<tbody>
<tr>
<td width="50%"><strong>Category | Segment</strong></td>
<td><strong>Tools | Methods</strong></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Competitive intelligence</td>
<td>Compete, Hitwise, Technorati, Alexa, Google Trends, Websitegrader.com, spyfu, trellian.com, keywordspy.com, Yelp!, industry publications such as those by Delloite, Jupiter Metrics and various consumer review media</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Voice of Customer</td>
<td>Software solutions: iPerceptions, Omniture Surey, OpinionLab, ForeSee and Ethnio. Clicktales.com. Market Research: pre-existing or commissioned. Usabiltiy studies. Observation. Focus groups.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Experiment &amp; Testing</td>
<td>Google Website Optimizer, Optimost, Sitespect, Offermatica, Amadesa, Omniture</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Analytics Aggregation</td>
<td>ForeSee, iPerceptions</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Clickstream</td>
<td>Google Analytics,Websidestory, Omniture, Coremetrics</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<p>If thought one analytics tool was enough, think again. We&#8217;ll cover more specifics in the next post.</p>
