Web Traffic Intelligence and Strategy
With the push to digital, most marketers have yet to establish proper web traffic reporting proceedures nor know what reports are key for decision making purposes. It is understandable. It is a new frontier with data everywhere. Information overload.

What are my online KPI’s? What reports should I be generating? How do I understand the importance of various visitor sources? What are my benchmarks internally and externally? What do my competitor's metrics look like? Is my competition participating in paid search and if so how extensively? Is my competition tracking their visitors and if so what software are they using? Is the quality of my traffic going up or down over time and does it vary by source or other demos?

Achieving Success: A Publishing Case Study
On average, most magazines find that their subscribers renew at profitable rates. However, there is always room for optimization. Models can be leveraged among those subscriber segments which are underperforming compared to the average. In a subscription marketing business model, key segmentation variables are subscriber lifestage (number of contracts) and source (prior and original). For circulation marketers, it is imperative to understand both source and lifestage, not just source alone because gaining that first renewal is a huge step toward a long and profitable relationship with the subscriber.
