- Very good book for novices in the same way 'GA for dummies' would be
- Can be read in 7 hours! i.e. a tad superficial - not for anyone who has used a web analytics package before, or even new users that have spent a little time navigating around GA.
- Some minor inaccuracies. For example, Administrator privileges can be set on a per profile basis is not correct (its on a per account basis).
- No deep understanding of e.g. filters, utmSetVar, A/B testing
- No analysis, no real world quantitative case studies
Essentially this book is a description list of all the reports available in GA - some 80+ covered in 15 chapters. That's useful for begininers.
Worse point: Most report screenshots contain 0 data or single digit numbers.
Best point: Gets people thinking about goal based web design which has to be a good thing.
