Complete Web Monitoring

Vendor Policy

This book is full of examples and screenshots. Many vendors were kind enough to provide us with access to their systems, and we made copious use of the free tools that abound online. Don’t treat illustration as endorsement, however. In many cases, we used a free tool because we had access to it. Also, some companies—particularly Google—are so pervasive and have such a breadth of tools that they figure prominently in the book. Other firms have alternate solutions.

One of the reasons we’re maintaining the www.watchingwebsites.com website is to keep track of the various newcomers and the inevitable failures as the web monitoring industry matures and consolidates.
