Great Find: Blog E-Metrics

September 21, 2006 by Liz Leave a Comment

Class Is Now In Session

Well it’s not a class, not really. It’s a wealth of information on how measurement works.

Great Find: Blog E-Metrics by HaveLaptopWillTravel

Permalink: http://www.havelaptopwilltravel.com/blog-e-metrics/

Audience/Topic: Anyone who wants to know what’s going on with his or her blog

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 blog’s impact using Google Analytics.
How to improve your blog’s impact.

Thanks, SeanRox. Thanks, Doug. Good Stuff!

    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

    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.

    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. 🙂
