The Next Web is a technology publisher, we publish 24/7 news around business, technology and culture. We reach over 6 million unique users on a monthly basis currently which generates over 12 million pageviews. Next to that do we organise The Next Web Conference in Amsterdam and New York City with yearly over 5000 attendees. In the last 12 months we made huge progress in our digital marketing & analytics efforts. We grew our marketing team from 3 marketers to 15 currently, and we’re still expanding. With this we had the opportunity to hire a web analist which who I could work with to professionalize and scale our testing program to the next level.
