Is your business based on guesswork or analysis? - GoFuckYourself.com

Are your business decisions based on guesswork or accurate analysis and tracking?

I'm under the impression that most webmasters on here just guess what works best for them.

Is this true or not?

Discuss.

After carefull review of your question I have come to the opinion that I guess so.

I take each page I create for programs and let it sit for a week, then go back and analyze what is working and what isn't...i have tons of click tracking and stats in place to tell me what to change and what not

i try and work hard on each page and i rarely just guess what works

How would "analysis" help the average McDonald's employee that posts on GFY?

Lots of tracking, and a bit if guess work.

Guess, guess, guess until you get enough information to analyze (and then you start your business).

It's a good combination of both, meaning that there's a time for one and a time for the other.
