I’ve put together a very simple guide to e-marketing in general for Geek With Laptop readers. I’m sure there are some guides coming that will be more explicit with regard to Blogging and E-metrics, but I’d like to take a stab at it utilizing some of their overall guidance.
This article is meant to be an overview and in no way comprehensive… if you think a more comprehensive guide is warranted, let me know.
Perhaps I can write a more comprehensive guide that incorporates more blog, analytics, and ranking technologies.
This guide is specific to WordPress, Google Analytics, and Feedburner… all free and industry standard packages.
This guide to Blogging E-Metrics Simplified is a basic overview of:
- How to implement web analytics into your blog using Google Analytics.
- How to implement feed analytics into your blog using FeedBurner.
- How to measure your blog’s impact using Google Analytics.
- How to improve your blog’s impact.

Nice article. Note, though, that if you are using the Feedburner Feed Replacement plug-in on WordPress you do not need to do anything to adjust the feeds in your header, as in your Step 2.
Hi Jeremy. You are correct about step 2 and we are working on a revised version of the PDF now with more information, so keep checking back for an update post hopefully later today.
