3) Web Marketing

Perfectbanner
Perfectbanner is a web app which integrates with Google Adwords as well as many other traffic networks. It claims to positively increase conversion rates of banner ads and another ad format by automating A/B testing.

Perfectbanner lets you create variations of your original banner’s different design elements including alternate images, headlines or text colors.

When connected to your Google AdWords account, Perfectbanner can identify and pause poor performing ad designs while identifying better-performing alternatives. By gradually eliminating all poorly performing  designs and increasing the use of high performing ones PerfectBanner constantly improves overall conversion rates.

Ideal for AdWords users who need to increase conversions without having to invest further in more manual tests.

Kickbox
Kickbox is a web app which has been designed to check and thoroughly verify the quality and integrity of the email addresses in your newsletter distribution list. Weeding out bad email addresses from your newsletter distribution list is very important, as the percentage of undelivered or bad addresses in your list directly influences deliverability of your messages.

My comment: A useful tool for any serious marketer having a large list of email contacts but not seeing relevant open and click through rates. Also very handy for those publishers who have acquired a newsletter email list from others, have revived old lists abandoned for some time, or do not know the origin of addresses in their lists. (note: you should always verify the origin of your email lists)
