Snippet:
Jim Sterne, Producer of the Emetrics Summit and President of the Web Analytics Association, said that growth was strongest among blue chips and large e-commerce companies, as well as the more enlightened SMEs who rely on the internet as their main source of revenue.
He said: “Larger firms are recognizing that the investment they made in creating - and then re-designing - their websites requires a means of measuring the return on that investment. They are looking at the Web as another communication medium that can raise revenue, lower costs and increase customer satisfaction. Therefore, it's worth paying attention to how well it accomplishes those things.”
