How do you measure success in a web site? How do you know that
your client's money was well spent?

After a minor brush with breast cancer last year (lopped out - I'm
super fine now) and a slowing down of client work at my two-person
company, I'm contracting this year while I figure out what I REALLY
want to do.

I've now been to a few interviews. I ask companies: how do you
measure success? How do you know if you've done a good job?

The answers I am getting are "analytics". Unless I'm mistaken,
this'll be like Google Analytics's reports and graphs.

And I want to know: really? is that all?

What ever happened to Key Performance Indicators? Aren't people
writing in measures of success into requirements documents and
then checking against them after launch?

Inquiring minds want to know.
