ACTIVE DASHBOARD FORECASTS EFFECTS OF WEBSITE CHANGES.

WebSideStory (NASDAQ:WSSI), has launched HBX Analytics 3.0, the latest version of its web analytics service. HBX 3.0 introduces Active Dashboard, the first web analytics tool of its kind that enables marketers to conduct real-time business scenario analysis to forecast the effect of web site changes. Offered as an extended service through WebSideStory's professional services team, Active Dashboard gives marketers an intuitive, graphical representation of their web metrics and how those metrics affect their business objectives. HBX 3.0 also employs a highly graphical interface and seamless integration with a new keyword bid management application called WebSideStory Bid. HBX 3.0 is the cornerstone of the WebSideStory Active Marketing Suite, a collection of integrated, on-demand digital marketing applications that includes web analytics, site search, web content management and keyword bid management.

"With Active Dashboard, WebSideStory delivers yet another intuitive analytics reporting capability," said Ethan Giffin, product manager for Allegis Group, one of the largest staffing companies in the world with more than 220 offices in the U.S., Canada and Europe. "Being able to forecast the impact of web site changes is critical to effective web site marketing. It not only helps you focus your efforts, but it can help substantiate a larger budget."

HBX Active Dashboard adds to WebSideStory's extensive list of alternative reporting capabilities, including HBX Report Builder, a plug-in for Microsoft Excel and considered one of the most advanced reporting tools in the industry; and Active Viewing, a browser plug-in that overlays key metrics right on top of a web page. HBX 3.0 was developed with feedback from one of the largest enterprise customer bases in the industry. The new version offers:

- HBX Active Dashboard - Interactive, graphical dashboards that enable marketers to create sophisticated "what if" scenarios in real time. For example, what will be the impact on total monthly revenue if I can increase my average order size by 5 percent? Active Dashboard are available to customers based on site type -- e-commerce, lead generation, media and self-service -- and are designed and delivered by WebSideStory's professional services organization. Active Dashboard can be delivered as embedded objects within a Power Point presentation.

- Enhanced User Interface - HBX 3.0 contains a new highly graphical, customer-driven interface that improves user interaction and productivity

- Integration with WebSideStory Bid - HBX 3.0 provides seamless integration with WebSideStory Bid, a new keyword bid management application that is part of the Active Marketing Suite. Bid is one of the industry's most powerful applications for managing and measuring large numbers of keywords through a single marketing console. Bid uses AJAX technology, a web development technique, resulting in state-of-the-art interface design that streamlines the bid management process.

"HBX 3.0 links keyword bid management into the Active Marketing Suite and sets new standards in interface design and reporting," said Rand Schulman, chief marketing officer of WebSideStory. "This release delivers on our vision of integrated marketing and making it as easy as possible for marketers to improve their initiatives."
