Great post, but it seems like most is just content from conversionuniversity.com no?
I have to spend my full day to read this treasure maybe, thanks for creating this list of good post.
This is another fantastic resource I've found on this site. I'll never understand why companies spend tens of thousands of dollars on analytics packages when GA is free. They should spend that money on the people it takes to analyze the data and make sense of it, not the tool itself.
