This was Iollowed by building a sense oI community amongst customers (92), providing relevant product inIormation (89), tracking and reporting on unregistered/anonymous users (87), and tracking and reporting on current/registered users (81). Although tracking/reporting on unregistered/anonymous users had a comparatively lower percentage oI respondents saying it needed improvement, it had the highest rate oI respondents indicating 'strong improvement is needed (18). in 10 Say Business Knows Prospects Well In one positive sign, a combined six in 10 (61) respondents said their company knows/understands the prospects it is selling to either well (41) or extremely well (20).

No other type oI inIormation Iield is included by anywhere near the same percentage oI respondent companies. Industry (24) and company size (9) are the only other individual Iields with a signiIicant inclusion percentage, while 12 include all oI the above and 9 include a combined other. In addition, the highest percentage oI respondents (31) say a typical webIorm on their company`s site contains Iive to seven Iields, while 29 say a webIorm contains two to Iour Iields and 21 say eight to 10.
