Brasher Travel Lite Socks
I am learning at the moment that it is not only important to give your feet good quality shoes, trainers or boots, but that it is also important to give them good quality and suitable socks too. "Proper" walking, running, cycling, hiking, skiing and other kinds of socks are packed full of technology just like shoes are these days, and you are really doing your feet a favour by spending a decent amount of money and choosing those over bog standard socks from any clothes shop.
But that's not extended to every day socks is it? I mean, those bog standard socks you buy from department stores and fashion shops are fine for wearing to work or just for wandering around town aren't they?
Brasher have a wide range of socks for walking and hiking, and amongst them are these new Travel Light Socks. These aren't designed for long treks or harsh conditions, but for wearing on a normal outdoors day. They are designed to wear with any pair of walking shoes or boots, when you are travelling or spending a leisurely day on your feet.
These socks have been designed for comfort – they are made from Merino wool which is light, warm and soft. They also have "Thermo Cool" technology which aids heat regulation, keeping your feet not too hot and not too cold whatever the weather.
What you get is a pair of symmetrical socks (marked left and right), with extra padding under the heel, underfoot and toe area. The double cuff at the top keeps the socks pulled up, the lycra support bands prevent slippage and rotation, and the flat toe seams stop those annoying indentations.
Wearing Them
My first outing in these socks was probably a bit more strenuous than what Brasher have designed them for… perhaps. I walked 10 miles in two sittings and spent a very pleasant day being a tourist in Lincoln – I was on my feet all day. I teamed these Travel Lite Socks with my trainers because I knew I would be on tarmac and concrete all day and so I needed the cushioning.
My first thoughts were that these socks are thicker than the socks I normally wear with trainers, I had to loosen my laces quite a lot really. But once my trainers were locked in place I have to say I hardly thought about them all day (I don't think I even pulled them up once). The socks offered comfort and warmth and I did appreciate the technology such as the flat toe seam – while my feet ached after being on them all day like that, there were no sore areas or blisters or anything like that.
Since then I have already washed, worn, washed and worn these socks. And I am impressed. I have not worn them with trainers since, I think I'll stick with a different type of sock with those, but I do like to use these socks when wearing walking shoes.
Once again Brasher has turned me into a sock snob. At £11 a pair from the Brasher website these are way more than I would normally spend on everyday socks (for example, I bought three pairs of what I thought were decent socks from M&S for £4.50 just before these arrived), but I am really tempted to treat myself to a couple more pairs of these so when I'm on my feet all day on holiday or something like that I have some really comfortable and sensible socks that are going to look after my feet nicely. They aren't going to replace my drawer of ordinary socks, but I definitely am beginning to appreciate the need for a decent sock more often than not.
Heat Holders Slipper Socks
A little while ago I reviewed Heat Holders Socks here on Splodz Blogz.
I loved how cosy and comfy they were and said that I enjoyed wearing them around the house as well as out and about, but later commented on twitter that they were a bit slippery on my wooden floors. So Heat Holders sent me a couple of pairs of their slipper socks to try out (I think they were trying to prevent me from hurting myself!).
They have the same 2.3 tog brushed fluffy inside which is seriously comfy and cosy for your feet. The only difference between these and the ones I've already reviewed is the rubbery bits which give these a non-slip bottom. Whereas I could easily slide from one side of my kitchen to the other (on purpose and by accident), the bits on these mean I can walk normally. Phew!
Once again Heat Holders get the thumbs up from Splodz Blogz – they are a joy to wear and now I won't fall over in my kitchen!

Whooga Ugg Boots
I received an email not so long ago offering me the chance to review a pair of Whooga ugg boots. Whooga ugg boots? Never heard of them… so I naturally had a look into them and discovered that they are one of a seemingly large number of companies making the popular Australian ugg style boots. So I said yes, and received a pair of "classic tall" boots in chestnut in double quick time direct from Australia.
As you can see the boots really only just fit my larger than average calf size. As such they are a little squished around the ankle. I am sad to say I've always had big calf muscles, it used to be because I was a hockey player and triple jumper as a teenager but it's no longer muscle that causes the problem! But these are not uncomfortable and I think I just about get away with them. If I had bought my own I think, I know, I would have gone for the shorts to be on the safe side – I would hate to have to send something back because my legs were too fat!!
Apart from the narrowness of the boots the fit is great. I ordered my actual size and they are perfect, there was no need to go up or down.
Whooga say right from the off on the home page of their website that there are a lot of misconceptions about ugg boots and which are "real" and what are "fake". Much of that is marketing talk, of course, but they make some valid points, and it's sad they feel they have to in order not to be considered as fakes. Whooga uggs boots are of course the real thing – they are not "fuggs", they are not rip off UGG Australia boots as the term "ugg" refers to a style of sheepskin boot not a brand, and you get the impression from the Whooga website that they feel very strongly about that! EMU and other brands are in the same position, and actually I reckon I've seen loads of other brands become better known – still top end prices and good quality products, but not the market leading brand.
Anyway… Whooga ugg boots are made with a thick inner fleece which wrap and blanket your feet in clouds of warm air. They work by trapping and circulating air in amongst the fibres, keeping feet warm in winter and cool in summer. Obviously I've only done the winter bit at the moment, and I can definitely testify to them being warm. These boots are made from twin faced leathers and are hand stitched and very light.
They seem to be made really well. The stitching is sound, the uppers are brushed evenly, and the thick liner is plush and soft and goes all the way down to the toe end of the boot. Whooga recommend you wear these with no socks – I tried them on with socks straight from the box but since then have happily gone bare foot when wearing them. It's something to do with the thick shearling and how it traps the air, and the fleece does feel nice!
Now I admit that the only other pair of ugg style boots I own is a £30 pair I bought from River Island a couple of years ago. And I love those. They are shorts and are nice and wide – I wear them a fair amount under and over jeans. Like those, I would never wear these in the rain and definitely never in the snow. Those are thin though, not furry inside like these; these are much more cosy on the feet and while I will happily wear these with no socks, the River Island ones definitely require a pair between my toes and the inners. But I can't compare these to the infamous UGG Australia boots that appear to be the market leader. For one I would never be able to spend £180 or there abouts on a pair of boots that you can't go out in the rain in – not when I live in the UK!
The thing with this style of boots is the sole. My husband commented that you see girls wandering around walking on the side of the boot. He's right – it looks terrible and must be awful for their feet. They are designed with soft uppers and light soles and as such collapse after not very much wear really. So far so good with these ones, and I would always be careful to walk properly anyway. The sole does seem pretty solid and has some grip on the bottom. I'll let you know.
To be completely honest the jury is still out on whether I consider these fashionable or not. Ok so a lot of the fashion magazines say they are, but I wonder if that's more to do with label rather than style. I don't know. I mean, I'm no fashionista. But I do know that these are comfortable and very warm and that is what counts most of the time, and for that reason I'm giving these a virtual thumbs up. I shan't be power walking miles in them but they are great for putting on after a long walk for my feet to relax in for sure. I like them.
These classic tall Whooga ugg boots come in at £89 (half the price of an equivalent UGG Australia boot).
The North Face Slippers – Down for the Feet
I saw these first on a fab surfer's blog (Ashleigh Bennetts) and as I was already looking around for the perfect pair of slippers to replace my worn out Animal boots I decided to investigate. And I feel in love. And I treated myself.
The North Face Nuptse Tent Mules are slippers designed for the coldest of feet. With 450 fill down insulation they are warm and cosy, just like the traditional down jackets and vests The North Face are known for. I have them in the ivory colour, which is light and feminine. My size 7 feet fit into the small just right – they are a snug fit but a close fit is the idea and there is some give in the material (the small is for 6.5-8).
I have no intention of trying these out at the top of a mountain or at the North Pole (just yet – anyone want to sponsor me to go on a massive expedition?!) but I like to think that these would keep my feet warm there too. Apparently they're also water resistant and durable and so can be worn outside as well as in – mine will absolutely be kept indoors though! In fact they may be the first slippers I pack to take on holiday, I've never done that before, is that normal?!
Oh and the green factor – the upper is made from recycled plastic bottles. Nice touch.
Price wise these are on the expensive side at £35 (I got mine for £24.50 from Two Seasons, making them more affordable) but from the second I put them on I would say they are worth every penny. Sometimes it's just worth spending a little extra.
Sarenza Shoe Addict: Chuck Taylor All Star
Not just one but several people sent me the link to this Sarenza blog post this week…
Sarenza, "Your Ultimate Shoe Closet", are looking for a new Ambassador to receive and review shoes from their site each month. Application is via a blog post about a pair of shoes currently in their online shop, and so this is my entry. I mean, I couldn't resist could I? I am a shoe addict. It's a good job I don't have much spare cash because if I did I would have shoes and boots and trainers coming out of my ears. Some might say I already do, but I really don't… honest!
After extensive browsing (which, lets face it, I do regularly), I've actually gone for something that won't surprise any of you. A pair of Converse low tops. I've written about them enough on Splodz Blogz for you to be able to predict that!
These are the Chuck Taylor All Star European Leather Ox in Brown. And I love them. I need them.
Converse low tops are seriously comfortable. My current grey canvas pair fit just perfectly and are very well worn. I'm desperate for another pair. And in this year of getting outdoors I can think of nothing better than choosing a pair of pumps that I can wear all year round with a massive variety of outfits, in all weathers. These are a casual supple flat shoe, the leather makes them more weather proof than the canvas ones, and the All Star style goes with jeans, trousers, skirts, dresses, everything.
I mean, when I go away for a week on the motorbike I have room to pack just one pair of shoes. Yes – just one. And they have to be petite – not bulky – and not ruin if squished at the bottom of my panniers. These would be just perfect for that job. I've no need to be overly smart, but I still want something that is stylish and won't look out of place. It's a bit like if you were back packing and had very limited space but needed something for stomping around town and walking coastal paths. Or if you were going on a holiday somewhere hot with just hand luggage (stupid check in baggage prices) and need something in addition to those flip flops for checking out the local castle or relaxing in the pub in the evening.
But these aren't just suitable for sticking at the bottom of your bag for when your feet aren't in biking or hiking boots. They are perfect with jeans for every day, with shorts on holiday, with little dresses on summer days. Fabulous all round style and comfort.
So even though I had free rein and could choose any pair of shoes from the Sarenza shop for this post, I chose Converse. Why didn't I pick some amazing high fashion sky scraper heels or over the top party shoes? Or some stunning knee high boots or even a decent pair of trainers for the gym? Well because when you're like me you have to pick shoes that you will wear over and over again to warrant an £85 price tag.
If I was lucky enough to become a Sarenza Ambassador then I wouldn't play it safe every month, of course, but be reassured that the shoes I pick will be me all over.
Sarenza offer free delivery on everything (and free returns, just in case things don't fit) and have shoes for the whole family on their site. Have a look, and if I'm lucky enough to be chosen for this Ambassador role, come back here for more reviews in the future.
Heat Holders
I'm sat here catching up on Masterchef with these blue socks on my feet. They are cosy and fluffy and definitely warm.
Heat Holders sent me a pair of their 2.3 tog socks to try out. I'm not sure I've ever worn socks with a tog rating before, but I like the idea of a sock that is rated in the same way as a duvet!
Tagged as "the ultimate thermal sock", it is the extra heavy bulky yarn, long pile cushioning and intense brushing process which all add comfort and warmth. Tog ratings are used to measure the potential warmth of a product; the higher the rating, the warmer the product should be. A high tog rating is achieved by holding as much warm air in the fabric as possible, which is by Heat Holders are brushed on the inside – not just for a fluffy comfy cosy sock but also for a very warm sock.
To put it in context, the 2.3 tog rating compares to the apparent 0.4 tog of an average cotton sock. Much warmer and much more suited to the winter months.
So how do they feel? Well I've already alluded to the fact that they are cost and fluffy and warm. Not a "pretty" sock in that they are thick and add bulk to the foot and ankle, but that's not what these are about. They are definitely comfortable and that is obvious from the second you pull them on, and that brushed pile on the inside is so lovely on my soles.
I have worn these socks a lot since they arrived. Apart from just slobbing in them in front of the telly, I've had them on with shoes and boots to go for walks. With all footwear I found I needed to loosen the laces (quite considerably on trainers) because of the thickness of the socks, and I'd be wary of wearing these with certain pairs of shoes as I wouldn't want to stretch them. But with walking shoes and walking boots, both of which I wear with thick socks (or two pairs) anyway, there was no problem. When I took them off I was expecting a mass of blue fluff all over my feet, but while I did have a bit of fluff between my toes it was nowhere near as much as I was expecting, and a lot less the second wear. I guess you get toe fluff with every new pair of socks, and I don't think there was any more than I normally find. Fluff aside, these socks absolutely kept my feet warm. Happy feet!
They are thick socks – definitely casual wear to pair with boots or shoes for a walk, although I was more than happy wandering around my house in these – I reckon they are warmer than my slippers.
Heat Holders are available from The Sock Shop priced at £6 a pair. They are available in a variety of colours. There is also a long version of the sock, and a wellington boot version, both of which I think I need.
Davina For Next Preview
Well it's nearly the end of 2011… thinking about those New Year's Resolutions yet? Got big plans for 2012 that require a stunning outfit? Do you have to choose your outfits based on what you own that fits rather than what you own that will knock them dead?! Maybe you're sat at your computer right now (like I am), not able to get quite as close to the desk as you could because you've got more around your middle than this time last year (like I am!)?
Yea yea I know. We shouldn't be worrying too much about fitness and shape and weight etc right now though (not before the Christmas and New Year Celebrations are out of the way)… but come 1st January I bet a good number of my readers will be making promises to themselves to get fitter in 2012 so they can get more out of life and have more energy.
Yes??? Me too.
But it's ok, I'm not writing a post about how you should better yourself. I'm a woman, and I know that the first thing us girls do when we've promised ourselves we'll do more exercise is to make sure we've got the right kit! And if you're like me then your starting from a point which means you don't look great in tight cropped leggins and crop tops yet – what you want is something that is comfortable to wear, stylish, and doesn't cost the earth.
Next have teamed up with fitness fanatic Davina McCall and will be launching a brand new range of workout and post-workout clothing, as well as footwear, so you can start your new routine wearing something you like that will take you to the next level. Next gave me some preview images of the range to show you, and I have to say of the pictures they sent this is my favourite outfit…
This stripey loose fitting top and cute joggers would be perfect for all sorts of classes (or exercise DVDs etc) and look really comfy. I reckon I could get fit wearing that pairing for sure!! And yes I know I can't wear two pairs of trainers at the same time but I was thinking the black pair for exercise and the metalic pumps for going home afterwards?! The prices are pretty good too – the top £18, joggers £25, trainers £45 and pumps £28.
There are other designs and styles too. Think fitted and supporting tops, tshirts perfect to slip on after that spinning class, ballet pumps with specially designed soles to reduce stress on load bearing joints.
I have done a few of Davina's DVDs and recognise her enthusiasm for getting and keeping fit – it's infectious and I wish I was a little more like her. I wonder if clothing can encapsulate that motivation? I guess we have to wait until the range is launched and available in the Spring to find out.

I recieved an email from this company if that's what you want to call them. They offered a 15 day free trial of their weight loss pills for $4.95 S/H. When I recieved the pills there were 2 bottles of 15 pills each mailed in seperate packages. Since you are only supposed to take 1 pill a day, I knew they sent too much. I noticed there was no invoice that came with it or even an advertisement offering to sell more pills so I dug the email back up and went online to their web page and that is when I saw their little tiny statement that said must agree to terms and conditions. When I clicked on it there was 14 pages of their so called terms and conditions. I put in 2 tickets to cancel and six days latter this woman called me and told me that the only way I could cancel this was to send her $49.95. My attorney said I should so I did. If I hadn't smelled a rat my credit card could have been charged $149.95. $49.95 was bad enough. I'm only hoping they will do something illigal so they can be put in jail.
Sand Springs, Oklahoma
EDitor's Suggestions on how to get your money back!
Go to your bank within 60 days of the charge, or as soon as you know about the charge, don't delay, and tell them that there has been fraudulent activity within your account. Explain that you wish to file a dispute, and demand that they assist you in accordance with Federal Regulation E.
According to the majority of victims interviewed by Rip-off Report, those who immediately called their banks to dispute the charges did not get very far. Many victims got the following responses from their banks: we could not do anything for you or you waited too long; it has been more than 60 days.
If the bank is says that you have waited too long, explain to them how you called their 800 number as soon as the charges were found, and were told by the bank that nothing could be done. Remind the bank that they failed to assist you properly at the 800 #, and instead, provided you with an inadequate explanation of your right to dispute. Tell the bank that it's their fault time has expired, and since they gave you the wrong info to begin with, they will just have to deal with it, take the loss and reverse the charges.
Tell them the truth; this was unauthorized and your account was NOT to be charged! Keep emphasizing how you never authorized anything! Direct them to the hundreds of victims reports that were filed on Rip-off Report.com. And if you're at the bank, walk them over to their computer and make them go to this site! If you are on the phone with them, tell them you will wait while they access this site! Either way, be persistent!
Let them know nicely, that you were advised to Report them (the Bank) and this situation to the Banking Commission in your state. Since each state has a different name for the agency/controller over banks, find that name before you call or get to the bank so you can throw it in their face. The more knowledgeable you appear to be, the further you will get.
And just continue to demand the Federal Regulation E form! The bank CAN, MUST and WILL reverse the charge! But, you must be persistent; ask to speak to the supervisor or the area manager for all the branches in the state.
Let the bank personnel know you are meeting with the media later in the day, that you would much rather they do the right thing (as most other banks have) by looking at the complaints and immediately reversing the charge(s) to your account; no matter how long ago it was. Be sure to call the Media if necessary so you are telling the truth.
If you have to, be loud (but nice) in front of other customers. If you are just calling by phone, the above tactics should still work. The bank can easily fax or mail to you the Federal Regulation E dispute form.
If the charge was to your credit card (not debit card, check card, or checking account), contact the credit card company as soon as possible to request a dispute form. Consumers usually have a little longer to dispute fraudulent credit card charges (up to 6 months), but it is better to act right away. In this type of situation, credit card disputes are usually successful since fraudulent companies often won't contest the disputed charge. In rare cases, credit card companies will review disputes, but refuse to reverse the charges. If this occurs, complain to a manager and let them know you will be filing a report here.
Remember Don't let them get away with it! Make sure they make the Rip-off Report .. The more Reports filed on a Company or individual, the more likely it is that the authorities, media and attorneys will want to take action.
And good luck Let us know how you do!

#1 Consumer Comment
They are criminals! The double talking terms and conditons are a pathetic joke.
AUTHOR: Theresa - (U.S.A.)
SUBMITTED: Thursday, March 15, 2007POSTED: Thursday, March 15, 2007
The double talking terms and conditons are a pathetic joke. For instance, what is a one time recurring shipment? It's either one time or it recurs. It can't be both. How does a free trial cost $49.95. That is not a free trial. How do they jusify the fact that you must agree to a sixty day shipment every month.
You were lucky. Most people can't even get through to cancel, they get voice mail and no one returns the calls. They are scammed for $149.95, and if you give these crooks an argument, they turn you over to a collection agency for $280 to $300.(They switch the numbers around to look authentic.) It happened to me and many others.
Last but not least, I had the pills analyzed by a consumer lab at WCBSTV, who ran a feature on Phentrazine 37.5. They found it is nothing but caffeine, and will do nothing to suppress appetite or help weightloss.. Go to WCBSTV.com, you may be able to access the article. To me all of this reeks of fraud. Don't give up, encourage all your friends to write to the Attorney General and the FTC.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

As always, you'll find further insight in the Internet Statistics Compendium.

Half of UK retailers are struggling to connect in-store and online

According to research from RetailMeNot, 59% of retailers cite a lack of visibility across channels as the biggest challenge they face today.

Despite 92% of large retailers selling online, nearly two-fifths are still failing to provide consistent pricing across the board.

With the recognition that a more consistent experience is needed, 42% of businesses are said to be restructuring in order to integrate in-store and online teams.

27% of consumers display no brand loyalty

A new infographic from the DMA has highlighted the four different types of loyalty that consumers feel towards brands.

While 40% of consumers are 'active loyals', i.e. people who stay loyal to brands for both special and routine purchases, 27% are 'active disloyals' – displaying no brand loyalty at all.

In general, disloyalty is said to increase with the value of items, meaning that consumers are more likely to shop around for expensive products like technology and furniture.

Twitter suspends 235,000 accounts in six months

Twitter has announced that it has suspended 235,000 accounts in the past six months due to violation of its policies relating to terrorism and the threat of violence.

With 313m monthly active users, Twitter is struggling to control the amount of terrorism-linked accounts on its platform.

Daily suspensions on the platform are up 80% on the previous year, bringing the overall number of suspensions since the middle of 2015 to 360,000 in total.

A third of people use only their mobile to make purchasing decisions

Research by xAd has highlighted how crucial mobile is in the path to purchase.

In a survey of 1,500 consumers, 39% cited a smartphone as the most important tool used to research a product.

What's more, 29% admitted that it was the only tool they used to make a purchasing decision.

With 56% of consumers buying immediately or within the hour after researching, the 'always on' nature of mobile means that marketers need to place more focus on engaging consumers in the right time and place.

Failure to achieve targets is top reason for SEO agency terminations

According to a study by Artios, the biggest cause of businesses dropping SEO agencies is a failure to hit long-term targets, with this accounting for 29% of all terminations.

25% of terminations are said to be due to a lack of transparency around methods, closely followed by out-dated SEO techniques causing 15% of dismissals.

The study also found the longer the relationship, the more mutual the ending - after three or more years, 'friendly terminations' are the most common parting of ways.

Visits to online retail sites up 2.6% this back-to-school season

Data from Hitwise, a division of Connexity, has found that the 2016 back to school season has been the biggest ever for the top online retail sites.

Compared to the same time last year, visits were up 2.6% in the run up to August 13th, equating to around 100m more online shopping visits so far.

Hitwise also revealed the hottest products for kids, with the most sought after including Pokémon backpacks, the iPad Pro and Yeezy trainers.

Heavy discounting leads to highest online sales growth in 20 months

Figures from the IMRG Capgemini eRetail Sales Index show that online sales grew +19% year-on-year in July, making it the highest yearly growth since November 2014.

Heavy discounting from retailers across the board is said to have contributed to the surge, with the average basket value of goods purchased online falling from £80.52 to £78.39 in a single month.

Out of the best-performing categories, clothing and home and garden came out on top, with a period of sunny weather encouraging us to spend online.

35% of organisations believe technology is key to understanding customers

Our latest report, Secrets of Elite Analytics Practices, delves into the relationship between customer analytics and business results.

The research found that organisations of all maturity levels agree technology is a massive contributing factor for success.

When asked what they believe has had the greatest impact on better understanding customers, companies with both elite and average analytics capabilities cited having the right technologies for data collection and analysis.

High-performance ads deliver an average of 180% ROI

Analysis by Warc has shown that the average profit from high-performing advertising is 1.8 times the initial investment.

This data comes from the Warc database which includes figures calculated within the first year of a campaign.

As a result, it does not take into account the long-term return, with the total predicted to be much higher as time goes on.

In fact, the long-term payback is said to be twice as high as the short-term.

China predicted to become the world's biggest retail market

It is already the largest in terms of ecommerce, but according to eMarketer, China is set to surpass the US to become the single biggest retail market in the world.

Research suggests that total sales will increase 13% to reach $4.886 trillion in 2016. In comparison the US is set to grow at just 2.6% to reach $4.823 trillion.

Over the next four years, this gap will widen even further, as China's retail sales value is forecast to stand at $7.086 trillion by 2020.

In one sentence, describe the product/service your company offers.

Essentially, TotallyMoney.com helps consumers get a fairer deal when applying for credit.

We offer personalised search results, ranked according to what the best credit product is for them.

What sets TotallyMoney.com apart from other comparison sites?

Our company is driven by a passion for making the credit market fairer for consumers. We're independent and unbiased and on a mission to help every UK credit card holder save money.

It's amazing to think that 15m people have never even checked to see whether they're eligible for a better credit card deal - if they had the same attitude to comparing credit as they do to switching car insurance or energy provider they could be saving a fortune.

Without vast TV spend, how do you optimise your media mix to stay competitive?

We're a lean, agile business, and we take a data-driven approach to our marketing. We measure the performance of every campaign we build and follow an iterative cycle of improvement.

We move quickly in the market to explore new opportunities across all channels - building, measuring and most importantly learning quickly is more important than whether individual ideas or campaigns succeed or fail.

To stay ahead of the competition, we're starting to tap into the possibilities that machine learning and big data can offer.

You place a lot of focus on producing long-form content – how do you measure its success?

Our content marketing is about building brand awareness and connecting with our target audiences.

By taking a creative approach to the subjects of value for money and better decision making, we've overcome the inertia and resistance to personal finance topics.

We've moved out of the personal finance sections and into the lifestyle pages of national publications. We measure success by the coverage we receive and the interest and interaction we see.

How is the business adapting to the rise in mobile use over desktop?

We adopted a mobile-first approach to product development and marketing over two years, and we first saw visits on mobile phones eclipse desktop visits in October 2014.

Today, more than 70% of consumers use our service on mobile phones with another 10% using tablets.

We've invested in understanding the challenges of context and interaction on mobile devices and refined the user experience accordingly.

What do you see as the biggest challenge in future for consumer-facing finance?

The internet is an unstoppable force that weights things in the favour of the consumer; it gives them direct access to all the information they need, rather than having to rely on self-appointed experts.

Therefore, the biggest challenge for consumer-facing finance is to align themselves with what customers actually want, rather than focusing on short-term profits.

This change is the biggest challenge because many businesses are not set up for it and stuck in the past.

How does regulation affect innovation in customer experience?

We support the FCA's drive to ensure that customers are treated fairly. Regulation exists to protect the consumer interest.

We take a customer-centric approach to building better user journeys; we embrace regulation that makes the market more transparent and ensures a level playing field for all.

Finally – what's the best thing about your job?

It's got to be the people I work with; it's a smart, energetic team that works hard, shares responsibility and celebrates success together.

There's a great sense of unity that comes from everyone working together to change the credit market for the better.

Econsultancy recently surveyed 225 execs at manager-level and above in ecommerce, marketing and analytics in North America (with reported 2015 revenues above $250m).

The responses form part of our new report in partnership with IBM, entitled Secrets of Elite Analytics Practices.

Here are some of the findings...

Only 30% have a 'thorough, up-to-date view of the customer journey'

Remember, these are companies with more than $250m revenue in 2015.

Though customer journeys are increasingly complex, across owned media, social and advertising (on different devices and platforms), there's still a whopping 34% who have only 'some view', 'limited view' or 'no view' of that journey.

Customers rarely interact with a business in a single channel or in one visit and organisations are still coming to terms with this online.

Attribution, user testing and customer preferences all being neglected

The chart below splits out the 30% with a thorough view of the customer journey and the rest of the sample, asking each about component parts of their analysis.

Outside of the top performers, only 29% of respondents include customer preferences as part of their analysis. Without this focus on customer centricity, improving user experience is hard to achieve.

Similarly, in the same group, only 29% analyse marketing touchpoints (essentially attribution) or seek to understand customer struggle (through analysis of individual sessions).

41% of businesses are doing too much leg work

Part of the difficulty businesses face during a digital skills shortage is maintaining business as usual, whilst improving processes and upgrading legacy technology.

41% of respondents to our survey said their analytics solution requires analyst involvement to produce insight.

This was par for the course as digital marketing was maturing, but in order to concentrate on innovation of product and experience, businesses must now have analytics software that provides insights to practitioners and stakeholders on a regular basis.

Indeed, 80% of those with an analytics solution with some degree of automation said they made significant time savings.

This automation provides an early-warning system and frees up analysts to fry bigger fish.

Three sequential challenges of analytics maturity - tying together data, increasing budget, getting senior buy-in

The table below shows challenges faced by analytical elites, the average and the laggards (as defined by number of tools at their disposal and the sophistication of their use).

The greatest challenge for each respective segment is highlighted, showing that tying disparate data sets together is the initial big challenge, followed by securing more budget, and ultimately senior buy-in.

Laggards are in a chicken-and-egg scenario, the average are scaling up, and elites have realised the strategic gains to be made.

QED perhaps, but further evidence to show that data comes first and everything else follows.

Overview

The pursuit of growth through improved customer experience is driving companies in every sector to build new capabilities in customer analytics and improve on existing ones. This report explores the relationship between these efforts and business results.

Secrets of Elite Analytics Practices, produced by Econsultancy in association with IBM, examines a variety of different disciplines within analytics for their maturity and impact on key performance indicators. The report is based on a survey of 225 executives at the director level and above at organizations reporting revenues over $250 million in 2015. Respondents were also qualified based on geography and knowledge of ecommerce, marketing and analytics.

Better information leads to happier, more profitable customers. This logic is borne out by results; companies with strong capabilities in multiple disciplines of customer analytics see an advantage over their peers in tangible metrics such as conversion rate, customer satisfaction and even revenue growth rate.

Key topics covered

The relationship between the strength of specific capabilities and results.

The ranked benefits of analytics practices.

The meaningful differences in customer journey analysis between companies with strong and weak capabilities.

The important challenges to overcome for companies wanting to elevate their analytics practices.

The analytical capability that correlates with the greatest improvement on conversion rate.

To help, here is one approach to organising social media results to help management understand the value of social channels.

On one hand, social media is one of the most transparent marketing activities. Everyone can see a brand's strategy in one place and, in many cases, can see how well its posts are performing.

Comments, likes, and shares are all public so brands cannot hide a viral success or an idea which has bombed.

But on the other hand, it's surprisingly difficult to know how well social media is performing for a brand, even to its own management.

The figures, or metrics, used to gauge performance seem to be different from team to team and there is little agreement about what social media success truly looks like.

One approach to making social media performance clearer is to have a look at what a similar discipline uses to measure success; public relations (PR).

The PR industry categorizes results into what is commonly known as the three O's: Output, outtakes, and outcomes.

The definitions of each are well-documented elsewhere, but for the sake of helping the social media professional to start organising his or her results, they are summarized below with relevant examples.

Outputs

Figures which are used to measure success purely based on a team's activities are called 'output metrics'. They answer a simple question, did the team do their work on time, within budget, and on message?

Though this sounds like a rather basic way of measuring social media success, it is still a major part of the strategy for many brands.

Social media teams are routinely tasked with simply producing a certain number of pieces of content per day.

For example, look at Toyota Malaysia's Facebook posts. The brand typically has one post per day about its cars and additional posts when there is a special event.

Though it is, of course, likely that the team has broader strategic goals, it would not be surprising if one of their targets was simply 'post at least once per day'. Achieving this is an output metric.

Output metrics can usually be managed by the members of a social media team unless global coordination is required.

In these cases, management of output may be done by using a content marketing platform such as Percolate, Divvy HQ, or Kapost.

Output metrics are the easiest to report, yet the least satisfying to management.

Sure, the team is following orders and producing regular content but the question remains, how does the output benefit the brand?

Outtakes

Instead of just measuring production, social media teams can also measure the direct results of their efforts, or the 'outtake metrics'.

Outtake metrics will tell you things like:

How many impressions did your post get?

How many people watched the video?

How much engagement did you get?

Social media platforms typically provide this data. Facebook has reported organic and paid reach for some time and Twitter now offers extensive analytics of tweet performance.

Other platforms are also starting to provide these metrics via dashboards.

The reach of a single post, however, is rarely the goal of a social media team. Instead, it is more interesting to look at outtakes in context.

One tool which provides this data is Socialbakers. It not only tells you the reach of your posts, but will also give you engagement metrics per number of fans (example: Mini Thailand)...

...how well posts are performing against one another (example: Honda Philippines)...

...and how well posts are performing against other brands in your industry.

Outtake metrics are preferrable to output metrics for a number of reasons.

First off, outtake metrics give management much more information than simple output metrics.

They offer a glimpse at how much of an impression you are making with the brand's market. Outtake metrics with industry context are even better.

Also, social media engagement figures encapsulate a lot of other information about your posts which is useful for improving your content.

How many people reacted to your post, without promotion, is a good guide to the overall quality, relevance, and 'shareability' of your team's work.

Finally, outtake metrics are typically underrated by social media teams and so using them to improve could give your brand a competitive advantage.

Outcomes

The most important metrics for the lasting success of a social media team, however, are outcome metrics.

Outcomes are figures which report on the actions people took as a result of your social media posts. That is, what change did your social media efforts make in the real world?

Some people use outtake metrics, such as likes and shares, as a proxy for outcome metrics.

That is, if your fans are sharing your post then you can infer that it has had a positive effect on how they view your brand.

But outcomes also go much farther than whether your fans liked your posts or shared it with their friends.

Outcomes also ask questions like:

Did customer loyalty for the brand improve?

Are your leads more qualified?

Did more people buy something after seeing a post?

These questions are much more difficult to answer and, as a result, are much less frequently part of a social media team's KPIs.

In order to measure customer loyalty, brands should gather customer experience (CX) metrics such as net promoter score (NPS).

Then, following a particular campaign, if the NPS score has increased you can attribute success to social media, to some extent.

For lead quality, social media teams need to agree a 'lead score' metric with sales and aim to improve that through targeted social media campaigns.

And finally, the most controversial topic. Do social media campaigns actually increase sales?

To answer this question, companies need to implement attribution modeling so that social media views are taken into consideration when giving various media credit for sales.

Attribution modeling, however, is still quite difficult to do and accuracy might not meet expectations.

Though it is still worthwhile to try, it may be better to start by targeting campaigns to a specific region or demographic group and look for large bumps in sales for them.

The results and the outcome metrics for a significant result will be more obvious and more meaningful to management.

So...

Social media metrics are important for teams who want to improve performance and report upwards to management.

Though many social media teams are still using output metrics, such as successfully completing a post per day, there are other ways to measure success.

Outtake metrics will let you know whether your posts are reaching the intended audience and tell you something about the quality of your work as well.

These should be looked at closely by teams as they are an underrated metric.

Output metrics, which link social media to business objectives, are the most impressive figures for management, though.

They are typically more difficult to extract but once they become part of your reporting framework, it will be much easier for you to justify the social media team's budget.

Essentially, we're talking about AI in the context of a technology that aims to solve a specific problem, one that uses datasets in order to learn and replicate information and behaviours.

So, don't worry, nothing like this...

With AI playing an increasing role in all our lives, our Marketing in the Age of Artificial Intelligence report predicts the various ways it will continue to impact consumers.

Here are five takeaways from the research.

1. Reducing the clutter of choice

As well as making things more complicated for marketers, the appearance of multiple social channels has led to a non-linear and fractured path to purchase.

From researching products to comparing reviews, consumers are now faced with an overwhelming amount of information and choice.

Consequently, AI can be used to help to narrow down the decision-making process. By finding patterns in large datasets, it can potentially provide consumers with the answers they're looking for.

While it's easy to assume that taking away choice would be a negative thing, research suggests that in mundane circumstances, this can leave us with energy for more important decisions.

2. Providing relevant products

With such a vast array of brands to choose from, the control is now in the hands of the consumer.

As a result, contextual factors are incredibly useful for engaging customers and driving loyalty, and AI is the easiest and fastest way to do this.

By analysing factors like weather, location, age and gender – product recommendations can become even more personalised and relevant to the individual consumer.

3. Speeding up the supply chain

One of AI's most significant features is its ability to predict future behaviour based on what it's already seen.

This is becoming increasingly relevant as brands attempt to meet customer demands for fast and even same-day delivery.

We've already seen the likes of Amazon Prime Now utilise AI technology to facilitate 'anticipatory shipping', and this looks set to become all the more common in future.

4. Enhancing communication with brands

As well as the customer's expectations for delivery, it also applies to a growing desire for instantaneous and one-to-one communication with brands.

This is where chatbots come in.

Taking away the need to deal with customer-service staff, and meeting the consumer desire for a text-based service, automated chatbots can deliver easier, faster and more contextually relevant communication.

With an estimated 2.5bn people using at least one messaging app, chatbots also enable brands to enter into the one area that has so far eluded them – dark social.

5. Greater understanding of customers

Data doesn't just relate to what products customer are buying and where.

Now, with personalisation at the heart of every consumer experience, brands are looking towards social media platforms to discover insight into every day trends and topics.

Facebook's AI engine, Deep Text, is built to understand the meaning and sentiment behind everything posted on the platform. In turn, it can surface content that is of interest to the user.

Of course, there must be balance, as brands run the risk of alienating consumers if they impose too much control over decision-making.

Is it a gimmick or a pizza-lover's dream?

Here's a bit more info.

How to sign up

Before you get too excited, the chatbot doesn't just provide pizza on-demand. Dom is a bit more discerning that that.

First, customers are required to sign up to the Easy Order system, which along with an address and contact details, saves a 'favourite basket' which can be requested via the chatbot in future.

While this might sound ultra-convenient, my concern is that it surely takes away the opportunity for spontaneous pizza behaviour...

I mean, say a person comes home after a few too many carbonated beverages and thinks 'I don't fancy the same old cheese and tomato with a side of dough balls… Bring on the MEAT FEAST'.

Sadly, Dom will only remember the meal that's been previously selected, meaning that the customer would need to change their basket or just order like normal. Oh, the agony.

How it works

Chatbot technology is taking off, and nowhere more so than via apps like Facebook Messenger where it is able to facilitate direct communication between brands and consumers.

For a company like Domino's, the chance to provide a specific service as well as build a one-to-one connection with customers is incredibly valuable.

So, what does Dom sound like?

During a recent conversation in the name of research, I was pleasantly surprised to find that he's not just a dough-brained bot, but one with a bit of a sense of humour at least.

With an irreverent tone of voice, Dom brings a refreshingly human feel to an otherwise faceless brand.

Of course, there are limitations, and as Microsoft's Tay proved there's always the danger that this early-stage technology can go awry.

But as chatbots go, Dom's got a little personality at least.

Will it take off?

I doubt that occasional Domino's customers will be inclined to use the chatbot, especially as it is a bit of a faff to set up.

For dedicated customers, however, it might provide some amusement as well as convenience for the very laziest.

It is perhaps a way to build brand awareness more than anything else, as well as a sign that brands are getting serious when it comes to entering dark social.

Who else is doing it?

We've already seen the likes of Taco Bell launching an order-based chatbot for Slack-users, offering customers the opportunity to order without leaving their desks.

Now, hot on the heels of Domino's, Pizza Hut is set to deliver its own bot later on in the month.

Reportedly offering extra features like customisation, Q&A and specialised menus, it sounds a little more sophisticated than anything else we've seen so far.

Sorry, Dom. You might need to step up your game.

Don't forget to download the Internet Statistics Compendium for more, and ready, set, go…

Only 21% of businesses track return on digital marketing spend

New research from Ruler Analytics has highlighted how marketers are failing to practice what they preach, with the industry being the worst at measuring the ROI of its marketing activity.

Out of an index of 100, marketers and PRs scored just 28.6.

In contrast, retailers are the most likely to be using analytics, closely followed by the travel and tourism industry.

Brits will spend over 3.8bn hours reading about the Olympics online

Teads suggests that there is a huge opportunity for brands to reach beyond traditional audiences this summer, as Olympic fever sweeps the nation.

A study found that 55% of people who aren't normally interested in sports plan to watch events in Rio. What's more, 76% of them plan to read Olympic-related articles online.

Overall, Brits will reportedly spend over half an hour each day reading sporting content this summer, amounting to 3.8bn hours in total.

Official suppliers of Wimbledon comprise less than 1% of tournament conversion

A new study by Black Swan has found that being an official supplier of a high profile tournament doesn't guarantee automatic success.

When comparing Pimms (an unofficial supplier) and Lanson (an official supplier), the latter ranked seventh in terms of volume of mentions, while the former ranked second out of nine.

This demonstrates how sponsorship deals are no longer enough, with brands now needing to create opportunities for social sharing and earned coverage.

Online conversation means that hotels can no longer rely on legacy reputation

A new report from Crimson Hexagon has highlighted how the openness of customer feedback continues to disrupt the travel and accommodation industries.

With 78% of conversation on hotels involving people seeking or giving feedback, brands can no longer rely on the long-standing reputation of their brand.

Out of the most-talked about topics, 14% related to comfort and luxury, while 9% focused on convenience of hotel location.

Adobe reports Pokemon Go and Brexit impact consumer goods prices

Adobe's monthly Digital Price Index has identified how the value of online consumer goods has fallen in the last six months.

For the UK, Brexit is continuing to impact travel prices, with flights to London falling 13.3% and hotel prices in the capital dropping 9.8% since the EU referendum.

Despite the explosion in popularity of Pokemon Go, the report also found that sales value for Pokemon items fell 2.9% month-on-month.

UK viewers clock up over 165,000 tweets during the Olympic opening ceremony

With a live UK audience of 1.838m, data from Kantar Media has revealed how the UK reacted online during the Friday night opening ceremony.

Londoners were the most vocal during the coverage, accounting for 15% of unique authors tweeting throughout. Moreover, men were the most active, making up 60% of the most active authors.

Out of the 165,409 tweets overall, there was a third more positive tweets than negative ones, with the most common emotion being admiration and respect for those involved.

60% of travel searches start on a mobile device

Research by Hitwise, a division of Connexity, has revealed how consumers are heavily relying on mobile phones during the early stages of holiday planning.

Based on the activity of 3m UK shoppers and 1m mobile devices, a study found that 60% of all travel site searches originated from a mobile device.

In terms of the subject, 83% of searches were for the 'best time' to visit a destination, 68% for 'flights from' and 83% were for 'flight status'.

The report also found that mobile phones were the device of choice while on holiday, with 'near me' generating 88% of searches.

81% of organisations have problems achieving a single customer view

The 2016 Digital Marketer Report from Experian has found that, despite 95% of organisations wanting to achieve a single view of the customer, 81% find difficulty in doing so.

The biggest obstacles include using technology to integrate customer data in real time, as well as gaining access to data from across organisations.

With 95% of enterprise companies planning to run cross-channel campaigns next year, it is vital to overcome these challenges in order to do so.

Over 90% of publishers find off-site distribution has positive impact

AOL have just released its Publisher Outlook Report, based on insight from 300 premium publishers in the US.

Despite initial panic, opinion about third-party publishing platforms now looks to be largely positive, with 90% believing distributed media has had a positive impact. Likewise, 53% deem it 'extremely positive'

With publishers receiving 25-50% of traffic via syndication referrals, it has become an essential part of strategy for many.

25% of influencers asked not to disclose brand involvement

A new survey by SheSpeaks has found that online influencers are being asked by brands to deny compensation.

In a survey of 347 online influencers, while 95% said they were upfront with their audience about taking payment from a brand, 25% also reported that they had been specifically asked not to divulge the information.

Despite the Federal Trade Commission stipulating that compensation or free products should be disclosed, even large corporations like Warner Bros have failed to be up-front.

Remember, if you're looking for a new challenge in digital our jobs board lists hundreds of open positions, and you can benchmark your own digital knowledge using our Digital Skills Index.

Alternatively, if you already work in the digital industry and would like a Day In The Life profile, you can email us via email@example.com.

Please describe your job! What do you do?

I'm Head of EMEA Insights for LinkedIn Marketing Solutions. My team and I are responsible for turning LinkedIn's huge data resources into actionable insights for our brand and agency clients.

So whether you are a tech business looking to reach senior CTO's in India, a consultancy wanting to tap into your alumni network or a car manufacturer wanting to reach recently promoted professionals, we provide brands with the insights to drive their campaigns and achieve their marketing objectives.

I also spend time supporting my marketing and PR colleagues with requests to help them better communicate with their target audiences.

Whereabouts do you sit within the organisation? Who do you report to?

I work within the Marketing Solutions part of the business, which is focused on helping brands connect with the over 400m professionals on our platform - as you can imagine there isn't anywhere else in the world that has this quantity or depth of data.

My role covers Europe and the Middle East and I report into our Global Director of Marketing Solutions Insights over in the US.

I'm currently based in London and also meet with our UK Country Manager, Josh Graff, every few weeks to ensure we are fully aligned on objectives and helping the business the best we can.

I find this really useful, as Josh is a great sounding board and he helps keep my team and I focused on the most important things.

What kind of skills do you need to be effective in your role?

There are certainly some obvious technical skills that you need to be effective, such as being able to get around tools like Tableau or understanding SQL (a programming language), and of course a curiosity for data and what trends lie behind it, is a must.

As important though, in my opinion, are those softer skills which help bring the data and insights to life.

There's often a misconception that data analysts should be, or even enjoy, sitting in dark rooms playing with data.

In fact, without the ability to effectively communicate what we have found, or do it in a way that excites and inspires people, then our technical ability only enables us to do half the job.

Likewise we need a real understanding of how our clients work and who they are looking to reach to give them useful and actionable insights to achieve their marketing goals, so razor sharp commercial awareness is key.

Tell us about a typical working day…

I didn't want to give you the stock answer of 'no two days are the same.' But I am.

Because it really is true. The nature of a tech business, with so much data and a large group of clients means that the internal and external demand for actionable insights can be very wide ranging.

I usually spend a good chunk of my day focused on my team, too.

That might be catching up with colleagues across different regions to share and leverage the projects we are working on, having one-on-ones with peers or focusing on hiring the best new talent as we have had a number of open roles recently.

I also get to travel a lot, which I love.

I go to the US a few times a year to catch up with my direct reports and I'm also often travelling to other countries within Europe to meet colleagues or clients and also attending events (next up is a workshop on the luxury sector in Paris).

What do you love about your job? What sucks?

There is genuine variation in what I do and I love this, and it also means I get to work with a huge variety of great teams and people.

This might sound a bit cliché but I really do love working for a company with a really clear purpose.

We always put our members first and our mission, to connect the world's professionals to make them more productive and successful, is something I really care about.

Helping brands connect with members with useful, relevant content is an important part of making this a reality.

As I'm sure any company with big data will agree, there can of course be frustrations around certain requests of the data.

Without an understanding of the complexity of what is required to dig into it and importantly make sense of what it means, expectations can easily become misaligned.

My team and I are therefore really clear from the start with what insights we believe we will be able to gather for a project and how long it should take.

Finally, I have some frustrations around external perceptions around our craft. While this is changing, there are still many businesses and people who think of data analysts as a back office, internal-facing function.

As I have said, this couldn't be further from the truth and without great communication skills the best analysis is wasted.

What kind of goals do you have? What are the most useful metrics and KPIs for measuring success?

I'm measured on the growth and success of the Marketing Solutions business.

If my team and I provide our clients and teams with the right insights to build world leading campaigns then our business will continue to grow and we will help even more brands reach their target professionals.

What are your favourite tools to help you to get the job done?

There are obviously a bunch of technical tools which help me be effective every day, from SQL to our internal data analysis tools and messaging systems.

But ironically I am actually quite old school. I still use a paper diary and post-it notes, it's a system that works for me and every time I've switched from analogue it hasn't worked.

How did you get started in the digital industry, and where might you go from here?

I definitely wasn't someone who at 14 was thinking "I want to work in data when I grow up"!

Just as big data was emerging I had entered the world of research to do a PhD.

Having decided that I didn't want to go into the life of academia, but still wanting to quench my thirst for research and curiosity around data, I took a role as an analyst in the advertising sales team at Google.

It was there I was first introduced to the world of online marketing and then moved to work with the rich, unique data at LinkedIn Marketing Solutions. I haven't looked back since.

In terms of where I might go from here, clearly I'm keen to move into more senior, director level roles but as important for me is ensuring that the role of insights continues to build its profile within big business.

Which brands do you think are doing digital well?

It's default for many people to point to big, consumer brands who are doing digital well but there are a tonne of B2B brands leading the way too.

You only have to look at this year's Cannes Lions winners to see how the likes of Lockheed Martin or GE are injecting creativity into digital to capture professional imaginations.

Closer to home I have been really impressed with what EY has been doing across our platform to lead the 'big four' into a new era of marketing.

From its use of video to demonstrate the brand purpose to harnessing data to tap into its alumni network, EY has been thinking creatively about where its audience is and how it can help reach them.

Do you have any advice for people who want to work in the digital industry?

It's a fast moving industry and so one of the best, most simple bits of advice I would give is to read up on the industry.

Make sure you are able to talk about the latest trends and stories in your sector as well as know who the latest start-ups and disruptors are.

For those looking to get into data, of course a professional curiosity and appetite to embrace data analysis is key but good questions also count for a lot.

Make sure you ask lots about what someone is looking to achieve and only once you have a solid understanding of this, turn to the data to see how it can be used. You will avoid a lot of cul-de-sacs that way!

To Whom It May Concern:
My name is Denise Jones and I am writing this complaint on the company called THE CCA Home Shopping Network Advantage! When they called my home I was taking chemo for my breast cancer at that time my thinking was not clear at all. I feel that they took advantage of a person even though I tried and called them to stop payment by calling their company and by calling my bank.
When I realized it was too late they had sent me these magazines. Then they tell me that I cannot get my money back that they took from my bank acct for the amount of $199.99.
While I was in the hospital someone called my home and said they could help me get my money back. They left a number (800) 760-4645. I have been trying for days to call this number and its always busy. So my alterative is to write you and then national cancer society for help.
Please help me to obtain that which was unlawfully taken from me back thank you so much.
Thank you,

Would love some help please???
I had someone install a custom WP theme to my server with no fantastico.
I created the domain on the server using a new separate ip, and the dns is all ok, both on the server and the nameservers[self-serving].
Once the WP installation was complete, when entering the url with www. at the front of the url, I would receive the cPanel Apache error page. When entering the url without the www. the site re-directs to the ip number and displays the WP Blog.
It now re-directs to the ip number entering the url with, or without the www.
There is no .htaccess file, and am not sure whether this may be the problem.
Would appreciate any help??
Thank You

Does Stream support WordPress Network?
And, if so, can it restrict access to superadmins only?
Does Stream support WordPress Network?
And, if so, can it restrict access to superadmins only?
This is something that I am also interested in.
Thank you both for chiming in on this!
To answer your question: no, at this point Stream does not work on WordPress multisite networks, but this is definitely a planned enhancement. See #63 in the GitHub issues.
You can track the progress of this feature there, and also feel free to contribute if either of you are interested.
Thanks again!
Also see #59 which is a related issue, giving access to certain roles.
TCBarrett and Failedprocess. If you are looking for a plugin to keep a track of all activity on a WordPress multisite network, you can use WP Security Audit. If we are not mistaken it is the only plugin of this kind to support WordPress Multisite.
Actually, this plugin is closer in scope to Stream and supports multisite:
THat's what I've been using so far but Streams tracks a lot more stuff so I'll replace the above with Stream in a heartbeat if it supports Multisite.
For now, I started work on a new client site using multisite (I've always done multilingual with multisite... I hate the usual plugins for it). I already have a couple editor working on content there so I installed Stream and activated on each site separately and it works. But of course it won't record network level events.
Any ETA when multisite support might be added?
Hey Stéphane,
We are tracking this feature in GitHub issue #65, we're making good progress on it and are striving to make it the most robust multisite activity tracking solution out there.
Still a lot of testing to do, so no firm ETA has been set.
Hey Frankie,
Thanks for your (impressively) quick response! I'll track the GitHub issue.
+1 for multisite!
and if you can add something similar to 'bbg record blog role changes' and 'sitewide comment control' with it, you're my new friend!
u did say something about making suggestions, no? ;)
