• Visitors are the number of people who visited your Web site by clicking on a banner ad for your site that was placed on an affiliated Web site.

• Shoppers are the number of visitors referred by banner ads who reached a page in your Web site designated as a shopping page.

• Attempted buyers -- are the number of potential buyers referred by banner ads who reached a Web site designated as a page for summarizing and paying for purchases.

• Buyers -- are the number of buyers referred by banner ads who actually placed an order from your Web site.

• Source-- indicates the specific Web site from which visitors came to your Web site.

In trying to increase the number of on-line customers, you must determine your Web site's success in converting visitors to actual buyers. You must also look at the abandonment rate-the percentage of attempted buyers who abandon your Web site just as they were about to make a purchase. Low conversion rates and high abandonment rates are indicators that a Web site is not very effective. You also must identify likely Web site partners for a new advertising campaign. Use the MTR with your spreadsheet software to help you answer the questions below. Include a graphics presentation to support your findings:

Questions:

1. What are the total numbers of visitors, shoppers, attempted buyers, and buyers at your Web site for this period?

2. Which sources provided the highest conversion rate to buyers at your Web site---that is, the percentage of visitors from a previous site that become buyers on your site? What is the average conversion rate for your Web site?

3. Which sources provided the highest abandonment rate at your Web site-that is the percentage of attempted buyers that abandoned their shopping cart at your Web site before completing a purchase. What is the average abandonment rate for your Web site?

4. On which Web sites (or types of Web sites) should your firm purchase more banner ads
