My Twitter Account Sleep @?

A website called SleepingTime.org analyzes any Twitter user’s tweets to figure out when he or she is most likely to be sleeping.

All you Twitter Users got to do is;

  • Plug a Username into SleepingTime.org main page.

  • Sleeping Time determines the Twitter User’s timezone from his/her location.

  • Sleeping Time looks at the times of day he or she is least likely to send out tweets.

  • Then Sleeping Time figures the “must be” when the user sleeps. If there’s consistently a big block of dead air.

  • Sleeping Time also estimates how much sleep he or she is getting.


All you have to do is plug a username into SleepingTime.org main page. It determines the user’s timezone from his or her location and looks at the times of day he or she is least likely to send out tweets. If there’s consistently a big block of dead air, it figures that must be when that user sleeps. It even estimates how much sleep he or she is getting.

So Run your own Username to see what the results will look like: Mine is below;

Adwords Conversion Tracking for ClickBank

Set up Adwords Conversion Tracking for Clickbank Products


Having placed the Adwords Conversion tracking is to successfully track those keywords converting into sales and which don’t. Also these are the keywords you want to pay special attention to. You put each of them into a dedicated ad group, you constantly split test your ads, you create dedicated landing pages for them… In short, you do everything you can to further improve the conversion rates of these keywords.


Now, the big question is to find out, which keywords turn into sales and which don’t?


In the past, you basically had 2 possibilities:

1. You setup conversion tracking in your AdWords account and you ask the product merchant to copy/paste the conversion tracking code on the products “Thank You” page

2. You use ClickBank tracking ID’s: This can work, but unfortunately the setup is a tedious. I often had conversions that weren’t counted using tid’s.

However, ClickBank have implemented “Integrated Sales Reporting” feature, which allows you to setup conversion tracking for Google AdWords, Google Analytics and Yahoo Search Marketing in less than 7 minutes.

Here is a quick overview of the steps to setup Google conversion tracking in your ClickBank account:
  • In your AdWords account, click Reporting -> Conversions -> Create a New Conversion Action
  • Provide an action name (for example: Flight Booking); Select Purchase/Sale; set the conversion page security level to http://
  • Click Save and copy the tracking script into a text file.
  • Log in to your ClickBank account. Click on the Account Settings tab, then My Account. Then click Edit on the right side of the Integrated Sales Reporting box.
  • Click Add Tracking Code and select Google AdWords from the Type field.
  • Enter your Google AdWords Account ID from the script you copied into the text file and paste it into the field “Google Account ID”.
  • From the same script, copy the value from the label “google_conversion_label” and paste it into the “Purchase Label”.
  • Click “Save”.

Enable Omniture SiteCatalyst to Track Online Campaigns

Easy Steps to track Online Marketing campaigns by enabling Omniture SiteCatalyst:

  • Define a URL campaign parameter (known as a query string parameter)

    • The URL Campaign parameter is the container (within the URL) that defines which specific campaign tracking code a visitor has clicked. SiteCatalyst will be configured to look for this value and, if found, set the campaign variable. The first step would be to determine what the parameters or identifiers are. SiteCatalyst is very flexible and can be configured to look for the parameter names you have already defined within your current system.

    Generate campaign tracking codes

    • Tracking codes will be the values contained after the parameter. Every campaign creative element that you want to track must be associated with a unique tracking code.

      Understanding F-Shaped Pattern for SEO

      Understanding F-Shaped Pattern for SEO Landing Page Design



      Summary:
      Eye tracking visualizations show that users often read Web pages in an F-shaped pattern: two horizontal stripes followed by a vertical stripe.

      F for fast. That's how users read your precious content. In a few seconds, their eyes move at amazing speeds across your website’s words

      A study found that users' main reading behavior was fairly consistent across many different sites and tasks. This dominant reading pattern looks somewhat like an F and has the following three components:

      • Users first read in a horizontal movement, usually across the upper part of the content area. This initial element forms the F's top bar.

      • Next, users move down the page a bit and then read across in a second horizontal movement that typically covers a shorter area than the previous movement. This additional element forms the F's lower bar.

      • Finally, users scan the content's left side in a vertical movement. Sometimes this is a fairly slow and systematic scan that appears as a solid stripe on an eye tracking Heatmap. Other times users move faster, creating a spottier Heatmap. This last element forms the F's stem.


      Obviously, users' scan patterns are not always comprised of exactly three parts. Sometimes users will read across a third part of the content, making the pattern look more like an E than an F. Other times they'll only read across once, making the pattern look like an inverted L (with the crossbar at the top). Generally, however, reading patterns roughly resemble an F, though the distance between the top and lower bar varies.

      Heatmaps from user eye tracking studies of three websites. The areas where users looked the most are colored red; the yellow areas indicate fewer views, followed by the least-viewed blue areas. Gray areas didn't attract any fixations.


      The above Heat maps show how users read three different types of Web pages:
