Snoobi has launched an official WordPress plugin for its web analytics service. The plugin appears as “Web Analytics” (rather than Snoobi) on the Adminstrator dashboard. They even have a new web interface which looks slick.

I like that plugin uses OAuth to tie in the Snoobi account with the WP site – but this signup process is not without hiccups (something I’m sure their R&D guys are working on). 

Once you set it up, you see its a simplified version of Google Analytics with the ability to home into exact visitors, especially if they are visiting from corporate IP address block.  I like how they updated their logo with a Santa hat inside the web interface  to reflect the season – very Googlish.

We are pleased to see a number of new Apps listed in our analytics section. This section lists web applications that help identify visitors and turn them into leads for the sales team. We’ve had tremendous visitor response as well as vendor feedback. To keep this momentum, we will be releasing a snazzy infographics about the analytics market. We are looking forward to new exposure for these tools. So if you have any vendors to suggest then please contact us.

Tonight we’ll be moving our site to a new server. This means that our service will be disrupted for a few hours because of DNS name changes. Hopefully this won’t cause any major problems. Stay tuned and we look forward to being on a faster server by tomorrow.

We have implemented our first rendition of “predictive search” on the primary search bar. Its supported on all modern web-browsers, including IE 9 (surprise). But older versions of IE may have problems with it.
