Do you hear a buzz? WASP v1.0 launched!


After about 18 months of nursing, the WASP is finally coming out of its nest and making its way out!

You still don't know what is WASP? It's the Web Analytics Solution Profiler, a specialized Firefox extension aimed at web analytics professionals who want to do quality assurance and understand how their web analytics solution is implemented.

There are three types of WASPs:
  • Free: Part-time analyst, and occasional testing.
  • Analyst: Full time analyst and marketing consultants.
  • Pro: Implementation specialists and consultants.

Developing such a tool is a long and tedious task. The web analytics community (that's you!) helped me out by providing invaluable feedback and suggestions. In return, WASP was free.

A free version will always be available, but now is the time for WASP to fly on its own and bring enough revenues to justify the countless hours spent nurturing it. But what's even more important, continue to improve WASP in the future.
