A Note to Readers Measuring Up Greetings, discerning readers! And welcome to another issue of MarketingProfs. This week, we kick off a Premium article series by Jim Sterne on his favorite topic: Web site metrics. Having literally written the book on metrics, he's no slouch when it comes to figuring out what works and what doesn't on a Web site, and on deciding which metrics will indicate as much. Jim's also one of the nicest people I've ever met, making him hands-down one of my favorite people in the industry. Several (OK, many) years ago at a San Francisco trade show, Jim took me under his wing during one "networking" dinner, where I felt completely out of my league, and let me pester him with questions all night long. It occurred to me much later that the questions I asked were probably completely inane. But Jim was a gentleman as well as a scholar. And speaking of scholars, have you seen the latest from Google? Thanks for stopping by. As always, your feedback is both welcome and encouraged. Unitl next week, Ann Handley
