Web analytics can help us … ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],How does web analytics do this?

[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Data  Information  Knowledge This is the realm of Web analytics!

What is web analytics? ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
