PORTLAND, OR, June 17, 2008 - WebTrends Inc., a leading provider of Web analytics and online marketing solutions, has reduced the time and effort needed to generate Web 2.0 and other business insight using the industry's most powerful and open analytics platform.

With the release of the new WebTrends Analytics 8.5, marketers can quickly assess the results from their growing investments in online video, blogs, social networking and other interactive media — and then use this business-critical insight to increase visitor engagement and conversion. Available now in an on-demand hosted format and later this month in software, the new release adds dynamic reports to a host of existing capabilities for testing, tracking and measurement of Web 2.0 media.

• Take charge of Web 2.0. Dynamic reports add standardized tracking and reporting, along with graphic views of results, to WebTrends Analytics existing Web 2.0 capabilities.
• Create calculations on the fly. Marketers can compare the results of online activities and web site performance by dragging and dropping these metrics in reports. New ratios are automatically calculated and added to reports.
