Webtrends Introduces Sophisticated Self-Service Testing and Site Optimization

Webtrends Optimize lets marketers perform A/B and multivariate tests and target profitable customer segments with little or no IT support

PORTLAND, ORE., - Aug. 25, 2009 – Enterprise customer intelligence company Webtrends today released a new service that helps marketers identify and publish top converting web content and perform advanced, segment-driven customer targeting in less time than previously possible.

Webtrends Optimize offers highly sophisticated self-service testing and segmentation, including a patent-pending approach to multivariate testing that produces valid results in a fraction of the time of other solutions. The self-service platform is complemented by a range of expert services, online training and best practices.

"Webtrends Optimize fills a void in the market for robust yet simple-to-operate testing and site optimization," said Casey Carey, Webtrends vice president of products. "Now, marketers can optimize content and target customers online with little or no IT assistance – or hand off all or part of the work to the industry’s most experienced testing and optimization consultants."

Webtrends Optimize offers:

• Ease of use. The intuitive interface and streamlined user experience makes set up and execution of tests, segmentation and customer targeting faster and easier than ever.
• Comprehensive solution. The testing and site optimization platform offers A/B testing and single-factor and advanced multivariate testing. Segment-driven targeting lets marketers customize site content based on keywords, geographic location and other factors.
• Flexible delivery. Marketers can manage the self-service platform by themselves using comprehensive online resources and five hours of built-in monthly support – or they can rely on Webtrends consultants with four years of full-service testing and optimization experience to help run or manage the service.

Today’s announcement follows Webtrends` acquisition last month of Widemile, a leading provider of multivariate testing and site optimization technologies and services.

In a July 30 blog post, John Lovett, senior industry analyst, said Webtrends` acquisition of Widemile "adds momentum to the trend that Web analytics firms are augmenting their offerings by adding adjacent and complementary services. Testing is a logical progression for companies that are maximizing their online opportunities with Web analytics data."
