Re: The Greatest Danger in Marketing: Metrics

Great post Eric. Love the bit about picking the right metrics. Can't tell you how many hours we've seen wasted reporting, analyzing, and discussing metrics that were never right from the beginning.

... and I think we'll see consumers much more comfortable with "registering" if it involves authentication through Facebook Connect (over 800,000 sites now using, versus about 8,000 a year ago), or other less-threatening authentication methods. I also think more and more sites will find ways and reasons to employ these types of registration/authentication methods.

It'll be interesting to see how this changes in the future though, as more sites (e.g. this one) have you authenticate (e.g. via OpenId, FB connect, etc.) to interact. How that data begins to be passed from the authentication providers into analytics, and how it is used will be an interesting factor in the unique visitor discussion. Tools that can pass that authentication info into their the analytics identification process may be able to provide much more accurate and complete data on unique visitors.

I like the "onfocus" idea also. If that was something that could be "played around" with more, I think we'd see the industry standard shift quite a bit. Having it be 30 min for "most" sites makes no sense, with the variety of differences between various sites' functions.
