The nice folks at Elastic Path asked me awhile back to give a presentation on web analytics for online retailers.  Their request made me realize I am still sitting on data I collected last Fall — a mistake I know but a function of the velocity at which Web Analytics Demystified, Inc. has grown in the past year.  To make up for this delay in some small way I will be sharing the data I collected from online retailers in a free webcast this coming Thursday.

If you’re an online retailer doing web analytics please consider spending an hour with us Thursday at 9:00 AM Pacific / Noon Eastern.  Among other things I will be covering:

• What the measurement landscape looks like for online retailers
• How satisfied online retailers are with their web analytics vendors
• How web analytics has impacted spend on paid search marketing

This last point I think many of you will find especially interesting.  Given Yahoo’s recent (re)entry into the web analytics market, and the assertion from Google that Google Analytics drives sites to spend more on search marketing, I set out to answer the question “Do you spend more on paid search marketing because of information gained via web analytics?”

Tune in Thursday morning to hear what I found out.
