Tip of the Week: Alarms

Errors, Damage, Problems, Hurdles and Murks

The need for optimization is indicated, among other things, by faulty links, form errors, aborts and bounces, abandoned shopping carts or unused content.  However, the causes of negative changes in key figures such as visits, target achievements, orders or time spent on visits should also be investigated.
