- Unique Visitors ONLY Come in One Size
- Eric T. Peterson Weblog, Sunday, March 22nd, 2009. "Back in January I published a note about the proposed IAB Audience Reach Measurement Guidelines that generated a fair amount of interest. At the time I applauded the IAB for providing guidance regarding the definition of a 'unique user' or 'unique visitor' while noting some concerns about how the proposed definition would actually manifest. In summary, the new IAB definition of 'unique visitor' needed to have some basis in underlying data that is based on secondary research that can be directly tied to 'a person'. Now that the IAB Audience Reach Measurement Guidelines have been officially published we can use the IAB’s own words..."

- Review: The Web Analytics Report 2008
- by Nick Arnett. Web Analytics Association, 13 February 2008. ""The Web Analytics Report 2008" is a long report. No, it is a "very long report," writes its principle analyst, Phil Kemelor, who is vice president of strategic consulting for Semphonic, in the report's opening words. "That is intentional." It is 343 pages of user guide, thorough backgrounders on web analytics applications, technology and acquisition - and the meat of the report, in-depth reviews of 15 web analytics products and services. Long reports are bad when they are poorly organized. This is not a bad report. Nobody should have to read the whole thing, but that is only because nobody should have to read everything about every product..."

- By Jason Burby. The ClickZ Network, August 28, 2007. "Last week, the Web Analytics Association (WAA), released its most recent round of Web analytics definitions.
