Google analytics did not introduce formal mobile device reporting until November of 2009, but that does not mean you cannot track your mobile traffic before that time. There are a large number of discussions about how to configure current GA features to track mobile visits, but how do you track historical information and compare apples to apples if you did not configure Advanced Segments or set up other tracking methods a year or two ago? Here are a number of ways in which to track your mobile device site visits previous to November 2009:

This week, Crain's Chicago Business published their list of Chicago Web developers and Imaginary Landscape is there, one of 52 companies. Already, I've begun receiving congratulations.

<meta name="description" content="">
<meta name="keywords" content="">
I see the above empty meta tags on Web pages with disturbing frequency. If a page is going to bother having a placeholder for such things, it seems prudent to actually put something there.
The usefulness of the description and keywords meta tags is hotly contested and often speculative. Since search engine algorithms are protected as zealously as the formula for Coca-Cola, the search engine optimization (SEO) industry is left to infer the utility of meta tags. Perhaps certain "lesser known" search engines make use of them, some say. Every once in ...
