This morning I received a mail from Google about a new service called “Benchmarking.” What made me skeptic was the words “data sharing.” So logically I checked the FAQ. This is something that is interesting to read. It says ” You can decide if you want to share your Google Analytics data with Google, and also have full control over how you share it with us. Visit the Edit Account and Data Sharing Settings page from within your account to opt in to sharing your data “With Google products only” or “Anonymously with Google products and the benchmarking service.”

Why does your website needs benchmarking. This is good in case you are using Adsense or Adwords. Google writes ” Many customers have requested benchmarking and conversion-based advertising features. If you wish to help improve our services and take advantage of these enhanced features once we release them, select the corresponding data sharing settings.” On Google Adwords there is a feature called Conversion Optimizer, which is an optional feature within AdWords. This feature When enabled, Conversion Optimizer can automatically adjust your bids to maximize conversions at the minimum price. This feature relies on a site’s conversion data to operate, and is already available to AdWords Conversion Tracking users.

I just installed Wordpress 2.5. Its easy.

The Wordpress 2.5 release is most a redesign of the look and feel in the admin side. Some Javascripts have been added. Frankly, its a shock considering the older layout. The Dashboard looks pretty cool. You can update plugins without using FTP.

The growth of frontierindia.net has been encouraging. It touched Alexa Rank of 193,465 few days back. I opened this news source during April 2007. Eight months back, when I applied for some adserving companies, frontierindia.net ranking was not what it is now. So, naturally, the urge to figure out what was alexa ranking about?

Alexa.com (since April 1996) is a Amazon company, say’s the website. Among other things Alexa Site Information is an database of information about sites that includes statistics, related links and more. Is Alexa perfect model?

I just signed up with Kontera and they promised to get back in two working days. I will keep you updated on my experiences with Kontera as it happens.

frontierindia.net has no doubt a very good growth since it was started in April 2007. Its 193,465 on Alexa Ranking if it means anything to you, but i need to tell. It definitely does not have 500,000 impressions per month needed by Kontera. When i registered, it did have an option of below 500,000 per months impression, also since they said they will get back in 2 days means they might be accepting websites with less impressions. In 2 days we will know.

Many people now create and share content on the Internet or blend services from various sites in their daily tasks, reflecting the medium’s clear evolution from a place for simply consuming websites.

The upcoming version of Microsoft Corp’s Internet Explorer, version 8, embraces those trends by adding an “Activities” feature that makes all that easier for PC users. It’s still in a “beta” test mode meant mostly for Web designers to try out.
