Overview

Turn Web data into knowledge about your customers.

This exciting book will help companies create, capture, enhance, and analyze one of their most valuable new sources of marketing information—usage and transactional data from a website. A company's website is a primary point of contact with its customers and a medium in which visitor's actions are messages about who they are and what they want.

Editorials

From the Publisher

...a well-written treatise on the method and value of extracting information about transactions on web sites. If readers are looking for justification to initiate data mining, the first chapter presents several good arguments that can be used to strengthen a business case study. Through the book, but especially in the final chapter about putting all the parts together, Mena's advice inserted between instruction is practical, appropriate, and obviously based on experience. In short the book is highly recommended, without reservation. - First Monday, August 200
