Expanding the Yahoo! Web Analytics Consultant Network

ywacn-emblem-logoNote: The following is a post by Charlie Holbech, who is a Sr. Yahoo! Web Analytics Manager out of Los Angeles. Charlie was the one running the Partners division (and half our revenue I might say) at IndexTools.

As I am sure most of you recall we (Yahoo!) launched Yahoo! Web Analytics Consultant Network (YWACN) at the beginning of August 2009. Since then we have been literally inundated with applications (apply here) from all corners of the globe from smart, enthusiastic and extremely analytics savvy consulting firms. These companies excel in their various regions around the world and provide an invaluable analytics service to their customers in areas such as:

  • Vendor Selection
  • Training
  • Tracking code Audits
  • Tracking code Deployment from scratch
  • Universal Tagging solutions
  • And of course Consulting and Optimization!!

Expanding YWACN

So today sees further expansion to YWACN and I’m extremely pleased to announce an additional 20 Consulting firms have been accepted into the network – taking the total YWACN membership to 71! We have focused primarily on expanding members in markets where, until today, we lacked representation and are very happy to have a fantastic group of experienced companies onboard. We are also welcoming a number of folks from existing markets who, based on their experience, we simply couldn’t say no to!

All these consultants are a substantial compliment to the Network, have a breadth and depth of insight into their various regions that is an invaluable resource to YWA users and are, most importantly, charismatic and passionate analytics individuals! If a 60 second ‘get me pumped about web analytics’ pitch were a pre-requisite to joining YWACN these guys would nail it!

So without further ado, our new consultants are:

www.resultrix.com, www.pop.us, www.vml.com, www.bell.ca, www.techwyse.com, www.purevisibility.com, www.cadastra.com.br, www.interactivo.cl, www.mvconsultoria.com, www.neoogilvy.com, www.sqliagency.com, www.clicmetrics.com, www.overalia.com, www.hub-sales.com, www.optimics.cz, www.queromedia.be, www.freshegg.com, www.iihnordic.dk, www.wattproject.com and www.orangevalley.nl

Full contact details for all of our Consultants are located on the YWA website. Welcome all of you, we’re looking forward to an exciting 2010!

Here’s a snapshot from our YWACN Homepage:

Yes, there are still areas of green remaining :-) But seriously, we’ll be expanding the network further in 2010 and are always looking for Consultants in Cities and Countries not yet covered. Located in a ‘green’ area (or white if you happen to be in Greenland!) and want to become a YWACN member, apply here.

Cheers,
Charlie

    Exciting, indeed. I was all over the moon screaming and bumping around the office like a jolly yo-yo when I learnt we’d been accepted :-)

    I would love to say thank you to Dennis for letting me in on a YWA demo, where I realized the sweet features and sheer power of the tool. Also, my thanks go to Emer for her support. @Exxx beats @OmnitureCare hands down :-)

    And also, congratulations to all fellow members. Good luck to all of you and let’s keep sharing and networking!

    Hey Nikki, Jiri, Eric and of course Joost

    Thanks! I do honestly believe that we are getting to the point where users of YWA can get, not just great support and consulting, but excellent analysis ninjas to work their data.

    Again. We are the ones to thank YOU for participating in YWACN.

    Finally IF any of you or the other 20 new members are at ad:tech New York these days, let me know and Diet Cokes are on me.

    Cheers
    Dennis :-)

    Hi Eric, Joost, Nikki and Jiri,

    Thanks for the comments and great to be given the opportunity to welcome you to the YWACN! I am super excited about 2010 and would love to discuss ideas you have for expanding your customer adoption of YWA and how I and my team can help you do that.

    Look forward to personally touching base with you all shortly.

    Cheers,

    Charlie

    P.S. Jiri, these ‘happy pills’ you’re popping, I want some :-D
