Dimension:

• A dimension is, typically, an attribute of the Visitor to your website.

• The source that someone came from (referring urls, campaigns, countries etc) is a dimension in your web analytics data. So is technical information like browsers or mobile phones or (god save you if you are still doing daily reports on) screen resolution or ISP used.

• The activity a person performed such as the landing page name, the subsequent pages they saw, videos they played, searches they did on your website and the products they purchased are all dimensions.

• Finally the day they visited, the days since their last visit (if returning visitor) the number of visits they made, the number of pages they saw are all dimensions as well.

• Dimensions almost always appear in rows in a report / excel spreadsheet.

About Me

My Coop Experience at The NATO Council of Canada, Toronto, Ontario

                                                                         

My name is Khushboo Kaul and I did my coop from The NATO Council of Canada (NCC), Toronto, Ontario. The NATO Council of Canada is a registered charitable organization promoting cultural, political, and economic interaction between the members and partners of NATO.I worked as a Marketing and Media Coordinator and had a great experience working with NCC. I was involved in Media Inquiries, Advertising & Branding through social media, Public Relations (PR) and E-mail marketing and organized various Social, Fundraising and Charity campaigns. Implemented Constant Contact in order to increase the list serve numbers of the NATO Council of Canada.I also used Google Analytics to keep the track of the audience visiting the NCC's page on the weekly basis. The tasks assigned to me by my coordinator Robert Baines, really helped me to boost my experience in Marketing and the skills that I have learnt during my coop will definitely help me in near future.

Venice- Italy

Venice- The City of Romance

Venice is a city in northern Italy, the capital of the region Veneto and is world famous for its canals. It is built on an archipelago of 118 islands formed by approximately 150 canals in a shallow lagoon. The islands are connected by around 400 bridges. Transportation within the city is by foot or on water. It is considered by many to be one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Venice was also a very important centre of commerce especially for silk, grain and spice trade and art in the 13th century up to the end of the 17th century. The classical Venetian boat is the gondola, although it is now mostly used for tourists, or for weddings/funerals. Most Venetians now travel by motorised waterbuses (vaporetti) which ply regular routes along the major canals and between the city's islands.
