Website Checklist: Analysis

Back to index

Evaluate your commercial website and be successful.

For your website to be successful you must know who your intended website audience is, what the goal of your web site is, and how the attainment of that goal will be measured. Without this knowledge, it will be hard to achieve success.

Analysis & Feedback

Analysis
Web logs are an invaluable source of information about how a site is being used by its visitors. In addition to regularly reviewing web logs I sometimes build real time dashboards so that I can generate custom reports and graphs to measure trends and changes in visitor behavior after the introduction of a new feature. Know your audience and watch what they do.

Feedback
Actively solicit feedback. You don't necessarily need surveys and polls but if someone contacts you concerning your site take the opportunity to ask them what they think of an existing or planned feature, or what they think could be better.
