We had a question from a client in California who wanted to know how to create a custom 404 error page in Microsoft IIS. Great question. Why would you want to create a custom 404 error page you may ask? Well the obvious reason is to improve the user experience for your site visitors who come across a broken link or an old page that no longer exists and has not yet beem redirected properly.

In the last two columns, I looked at how search plays a part when we’re in two information gathering states: I know what I’m looking for and where to find it; and, I know what I’m looking for but not where to find it. Today, I’ll look at what happens when we don’t know what we’re looking for or where to find it.
In the first two states, our intent is pretty well defined. We’re looking for a piece of a puzzle and we know the shape of that piece when we see it. In information foraging terms, we’ve already defined our diet. It’s just a question of which patch we look in. When we extend that to search engine usage, we have already defined our query, and it’s just a question of how we interact with the results page. In both these states, search engines work pretty well.

E-newsletters are a great way to form and maintain relationships with your customers and prospects. You get to show your expertise in a way that fosters confidence in your company. Great newsletter content will encourage your readers to take action – call you for more info, book an appointment or visit your Web site – whatever action you tell them to do.

If you think about it, word-of-mouth advertising is wrapped up in all forms of marketing. That is because word-of-mouth recommendations can stem from any part of your marketing strategy. If you have a funny television ad running, one person will tell another who will watch for your ad. You did not explicitly ask for that word-of-mouth recommendation, it just naturally stemmed from one of your other marketing vehicles.

If you are looking for a career in web analytics and want to establish a solid foundation of skills as a part of your overall analytics training, then I recommend adding the skills below to your tool-set to help you become a very well rounded analyst before you enter the field. Taking a course on web analytics, reading a book on web analytics or subscribing to a web analytics blog are a good start, but frankly, are not good enough by themselves.

Some people think you should give your business card to anyone that will take it. Others say to only give it to people who ask for it. Otherwise, you’re just wasting your your business card printing budget on people who are just going to throw your card away anyway.
The key to getting people to want your business card is to ask them for theirs first. Most likely, that person will ask for your business card in return. Then your card can get to work for you and you can work on making a new business contact.
