Advertisers and marketing managers can use analytics to determine the success of a campaign, test strategies and make decisions about a site’s creative elements and content. It is important for campaign managers to choose the correct tools to perform analysis. One popular tool in the industry is Google Analytics, but there is a host of other paid and free analytics tools such as Yahoo! Web Analytics and Optimizely.
