Oct. 7, 2008 - PRLog -- Avangate, full service provider of electronic software distribution and reseller management solutions for software vendors, publishes its first-of-the-series e-book, the "Analytics miniBible for Software Vendors" (http://www.avangate.com/analytics-minibible/). This is a reliable, step-by-step advisory document on how to benefit from the world's most used analytics tracking service, Google Analytics.

The document is a must-read for software vendors, providing them with the necessary knowledge in order to get user data from their sites and employ it in a revenue-productive manner.

"Every software vendor that has an online business strives to be highly efficient regarding the selling of his software. By understanding better the users that get on his website, he can further enhance this efficiency and be able to put into action a strategy that will take his software business forward and increase his revenue", says Adriana Iordan, Web Marketing Manager, Avangate.

"Analytics miniBible for Software Vendors" helps software vendors: (1) centralize all the tracking data for the website, the software application and the shopping cart in one place, linking them real-time in a dynamic way; (2) find out the success rate of the shopping carts supplied by eCommerce providers; (3) get extra data about their users, which is not explicitly available in the Google Analytics interface; (4) understand exactly how the analytics tracking service works.
