Web Visions Warm Up Tonight
Tonight in Portland, Adam Ware of SwellPath Interactive is speaking on “Beyond the Pageview: What’s Going On with Your Dynamic Content?” as part of a DevGroup NW series.
His session will examine good and bad ways to integrate web analytics tracking beginning in the design phase, and how doing so can benefit designers and developers as much as it benefits marketers. He will discuss how visitors are interacting with a site, and how one can use that knowledge to drive design and development decisions.
