Yahoo! Web Analytics Consultant Network Launch


More exciting news from the Yahoo! Web Analytics team. Dennis Mortensen notes on his blog that Yahoo! will be launching a monster consulting network for Yahoo! Web Analytics.

Mr. Mortensen says, "This is a network of third party companies with expertise in deriving insight from Web Analytics AND deploying Yahoo! Web Analytics in particular."

Once the consulting network site launches, you'll find a list of over 48 Yahoo! Web Analytics partner consultants to choose from!

I've actually worked with a couple of of these partners in the past (such as EngineReady and Semphonic) and they are solid when it comes to helping you drive a higher ROI from your analytics solutions.

And if you are interested in becoming a Yahoo! Web Analytics Partner yourself, here are some of the benefits you'll receive:
  • Yahoo! Web Analytics FREE account creation rights (This is sexy eh?)
  • Listing on Yahoo!’s Consultant Network web page
  • Potential client referrals from the Yahoo! Sales team
  • Exclusive “Yahoo! Web Analytics Consultant Network” icon for display on your website
  • Premium levels of technical support and access to a partner portal
  • Access to an exclusive YWACN forum to share ideas and technical tips with other top analysts worldwide
  • Unique opportunities to work with Yahoo! to provide trainings, books and speaking engagements

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.

Yahoo! 'Assists' Their Advertisers On PPC Bidding

For those who have explored Yahoo's latest web analytics options, you have most likely come across the 'Assists' report and wondered what the heck it is.

I dig around on the SonyStyle.com web site but end up not purchasing anything. I then come back 14 days later and use the search term "Laptop" on Yahoo.com. But this time I decide to click on a different Sony sponsored search ad....for laptops. I reach the same SonyStyle.com site and I finally decide to make a puchase (conversion). The results in Yahoo.... The ...

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...
