If you read Google’s official guide on performing A/B testing for your AdSense ads earlier this month, you’d probably already have a strong sense of what split testing is. But if that has been your only exposure to it, then I’m afraid that there’s a chance you might have been fooled to believe that split […]
Crazy Egg - a click tracking service with all the fluffy features demanding publishers will love - just launched today. It isn’t the first entry in this space, with a (completely or very much) similar service in clickdensity (available to the public since June), plus semi-similar services in Google Analytics (has a Site Overlay feature, […]
After having had to read (and post to) blogs under the strict limitations of a PDA, I’ve finally realised how important it is to make blogs PDA-friendly. “Finally” because I’ve actually read (quite a number of) articles promoting usability for handhelds (and you probably have as well), but never found the drive to conquer sheer […]
