Content: SeanRox at HaveLaptopWillTravel invited Doug Karr as a Guest writer to offer an overview of E-Metrics for blogs tailored to the laidbaid, data-minded geek with social skills. (That’s our friend Sean.) I’ve read the report. It’s an amazing resource — specifically geared to WordPress, Google Analytics, and Feedburner.
The language is well-written and easy to follow — lot’s to be learned in every word of it. Doug describes it this way.
This guide to Blogging E-Metrics Simplified is a basic overview of:
How to implement web analytics into your blog using Google Analytics.
How to implement feed analytics into your blog using FeedBurner.
How to measure your blogââ¬â¢s impact using Google Analytics.
How to improve your blogââ¬â¢s impact.

Sean,
Do you need me to change the linkage in the post? I can do that. . . .
Thanks, all! It was fun to write. There’s a lot of room for expansion and we’ll continue fine-tuning it. We’ve instituted ‘version control’ on it so you can compare your version with the present one posted.
Regards,
Doug
Hi Doug!
Great job! Really!
It’s a valuable resource. Thanks.
Hi Liz, no need to update the link because the original post has a direct link to the project page where the download is located.
Thanks, Sean,
I didn’t want to be sending folks to the wrong place. 🙂
No problem Liz. I don’t like sending people to the wrong place either, so I’m very careful how I set up links, especially to things for download 🙂
For a laid-back geek with social skills, SeanRox, you seem to have a flair for being careful about a lot of things. That’s a great quality. 🙂
I’m finding out blogging is a small world. I ran into Doug on another blog with led me to his blog. He then helped me with kicking up my new theme.
Blogging is a small world when you think how big the internet is.
Hi Roy!
Yes, that’s kind of neat about how the whole blogging thing is just like ripples in a pool. We keep looping around bumping into each other. 🙂
Just because I’m a laid-back geek with social skills doesn’t mean that I’m not capable of having flair… hehe… I have 39 peaces of flair (Office Space reference).
Also, being the next James Bond… uh, Rox, SeanRox… I’ve been trained in many qualities and I’m even house broken too 😉
In all seriousness, thank you for your kind words Liz.
I only speak the truth, Rox, SeanRox . . .
that’s Liz MeLiz
Hi Roy, Doug is a great guy. He and I work really well together.
You’re also correct in saying that the internet makes the world a really small place.
I’ve met some really interesting people over the years while being on the net… first with BBS’s, then dial up, then high speed…
I’ve also met a lot of my internet friends in person which is nice… I like being able to put a face with a site or even a voice. Skype is really good for this… allowing you to talk with your online friends voice and for free of charge.
Wow, that sounded like a shameless plug… hehe… Skype… just do it… doh!… hehe
SeanRox,
I think you have to work for Skype for it to be a shameless plug. 🙂
