About the workshop:

Explore the emerging landscape of metrics and measurement in the world of the social Web.

The workshop will begin with an examination of the traditional measurement tools available on the Web, explaining their pros and cons, before looking specifically at the new suite of tools needed to discover 'actionable insights' for your social media projects.

We'll look at questions like:

  • What is a 'well performing' Web site?
  • How might this differ from a social media project?
  • How will you know your if social media projects are successful?
  • What constitutes success and how might you benchmark it?
  • What tools are available for free or at low cost?
  • What combination of qualitative and quantitative results might you report back to funders?
  • What are the implications of social media measurement for your traditional measurements?

Those who  use Google Analytics and can provide read access to their reports will be able to have their organisations featured in the workshop and will gain greater insights and takeaway form the workshop. As the workshop is strictly closed-door, it is a mutual understanding amongst participants that all data revealed and shared will be held in strictest confidence.

  • Insights into current issues around online measurement
