New Yahoo! Pingbox Chat Feature

I've just added Yahoo's new Pingbox widget to my blog. If you have any questions, comments, or concerns about Yahoo's web analytics while reading my blog site, feel free to use Pingbox to send me a question. As long as I'm online and not in a meeting, on the phone, working on a project, or supporting a client in need, I'll send you a quick message back.

It works just like any other instant messaging service that you have used. The only difference is that Pingbox will keep you anonymous.

Thanks again for your blog support!

The Americans who have signed our petition (at a rate of about 200 per day) feel that this level of waste cannot be justified by the service it provides, and that more sustainable business practices are not beyond the ingenuity of American business.

Hey retailers, it's time to step up your coupon game!

Hate to be the bearer of bad news retailers but I can't find your coupons online. I've run countless coupon related searches (on all of the major search engines) for some of your largest brands such as Staples, Target, McDonalds, Home Depot, and CVS to name a few. To be quite honest, it's a lousy consumer experience. All I see are countless affiliate sites that claim to offer me coupons from the retailer but RARELY deliver. Sites like Techbargains.com serve up links which you think will provide you with a coupon but all they do is redirect you to the retailer's home page. I invite you to try it. Click on one of the green 'Activate Coupon' buttons to access the particular coupon: http://www.techbargains.com/staplescoupons.cfm . It tells you to 'Please wait while we activate your deal' as it downloads who knows what to your system. Just when you get excited about being presented with a coupon that you can print out and take into the ret...

Monetizing Big Data In Yahoo Web Analytics

There's been a lot of talk/press already around Yahoo's new CEO, Scott Thompson, and his thoughts on big data at Yahoo. Here are a few examples that have already been written since yesterday: Yahoo's New CEO Has Data Focus Can Yahoo's New CEO Thompson Harness Big Data Analytics? The Key To Yahoo's Long Term Health? Data, Says New CEO Rest assured though, Yahoo has some of the best big data geniuses around. A company like Yahoo has to have some smart data guys when you're bringing in over 700 million monthly unique visitors to your properties each month. Ever heard of Hadoop? "The most well known technology used for Big Data is Hadoop. Hadoop is used by Yahoo, eBay, LinkedIn and Facebook. Google uses a proprietary version of Hadoop" And Hortonworks, a big data company that spun out from Yahoo this past summer expects that "Half the worlds data will be on Hadoop in 5 years" So if Mr Thompson is looking to monetize "big d...

Yahoo! Assists....Put Money Back Into Your Pockets Now!

ADVERTISERS: How would you like to save yourself a bundle of advertising dollars and heart ache all at the same time? Well, you can. And it can be done IMMEDIATELY by using the 'Assist' metric from your Yahoo! Sponsored Search account. This is a "no brainer " people! I've even broken it down into a simple basketball analogy so that it's easier to understand. Every online advertiser should be interested in understanding this. The Yahoo! Assists Sports Analogy: Basketball coaches have to make decisions every day on which players will play based on metrics such as Conversions and Assists. Here’s a scenario…. Coach's Decision Without Factoring In Assists Player A scores 2 conversions (for 4 points) and Player B scores 12 conversions (for 24 points). If the coach only measures performance based on conversions, then which player will he bench in the next game? Player A, of course, due to poor performance. Coach's Decision Factoring In Assists We find that wh...
