~ Knowledge is embodied in people gathered in communities and networks. The road to knowledge is via people, conversations, connections and relationships. Knowledge surfaces through dialog, all knowledge is socially mediated and access to knowledge is by connecting to people that know or know who to contact. ~ by someone I don't know (just being honest)

While exploring different tools in Adobe Omniture Suite, I am finding a new piece of information everyday which I'd like to share with you all. Hope you all find these informative and don't hestitate to pass your invaluable feedback. Enjoy!!!!

How to exclude yourself from being tracked in SiteCatalyst

What if you want to exclude yourself being counted as a visitor when you access your site? This surely skews stats as you keep checking your site regularly (if you are truly into Web-Analytics). One, a comparably difficult to implement but easy to maintain solution is to use VISTA rules to exclude all IPs which you think are skewing your results.
So tell me something simpler then!!!!
Make use of Exclude by IP option in Admin dropdown. This option allows you to exclude your IP address or your machine by cookie. My preference is cookie unless you hate them :) 

Now some limitation; this setting will exclude only your machine. VISTA rules are still the best way if you want to exclude multiple IP addresses belonging to your internal traffic.
