The present invention provides a computer implemented method and system for collecting information on a user visit for web analytics. An information collection module is sent to a client in response to a page opening request from the client. The information collection module is for collecting additional information on user visit of the client. Additional information on user visit and basic information on user visit of the client is obtained from a web service request. A web beacon request is generated based on the obtained information. The invention adopts a non-intrusive information collection manner that does not require modifying code of a web application and thus, is much simpler, feasible, and cost-effective than prior art. Further, centralized collection and management for the information on user visit can be implemented. Thus, it is more flexible and convenient for maintenance and optimization.

A system and method provide a summary comparison of data. The summary may compare filtered and unfiltered data or one set of filtered data to another.

The present invention overcomes the deficiencies and limitations of the prior art by providing a direct tracking module for keywords. In one embodiment, the system comprises a direct tracking module, a bid management system, a web analytics tool and a search engine. The direct tracking module interfaces with the bid management system to provide user interfaces for reviewing data about specific keyword and ads / text pairs. The direct tracking module uses unique codes to provide specific information about which combination of keyword and text generated specific Web traffic, such as traffic that generated a sale. This is particularly advantageous because the keyword / text pairs that generate a large number of sales can be reused to generate future traffic. Similarly, keyword / text pairs that do not generate Web traffic can be eliminated from the words that are purchased by the advertiser. Thus, the present invention greatly reduces the uncertainty presently provided by keyword purchasing schemes offered by present-day search engines. The present invention also includes a novel method for the direct tracking of keywords to ads / text.

A stateless cookie operations server machine can provide real-time, actionable, user-specific tracking abilities in the collection of impressions and user interactions with a company's digital properties. The client-side code (e.g., in a web browser) may load an image element configured with parameters and a hyperlink (e.g., URL) that causes name-value pairs to be sent as parameters, along with a cookie data file, to a remote server. The remote server may process the parameters and perform operations based on both the value and the name of the name-value pairs. Mathematical and / or other operations may be performed on the parameters and the results saved into the appropriate cookie data file. The server sends the update cookie data file and any requested content (e.g., a transparent image pixel, or other information) back to the client-side device. As a result, the client-side application may use the information in the updated cookie data file to perform one or more web analytics and personalization functions on a real-time, user-specific, actionable basis.
