There is a lot of hype surrounding Personalized URLs these days, but what’s the reality behind the hype? Do these applications deliver on the promise? “Personalized URLs: Beyond the Hype,” the fourth in Heidi Tolliver-Nigro’s Marketer’s Primer Series, addresses this question. The answer is one that every marketer and 1: 1 print provider should take to heart.
Personalized URL applications have a wide variety of uses, including lead generation, direct sales / cross-sells, customer surveys, event registrations, information dissemination, and customer and user feedback. But while they have generated a lot of success, they have generated a lot of disappointment, too—primarily because of a lack of realistic expectations.
This reports provides a no-nonsense look at the role of personalized URLs and 1:1 printing in increasing the effectiveness of companies’ marketing programs. It looks at key application categories, “best in class” case studies, lessons learned over time, common marketer misconceptions, and best practices for optimizing their use. Printers and marketers can optimize the value of this report by purchasing an enterprise license to allow full distribution within their enterprises for training and education.

Section 2 looks at the primary differentiating factors between personalized URL software solutions and the variety of pricing models used by 1:1 services providers.
Section 3 looks at the role of databases, including the use of personalized URLs to turn mailing lists into prospecting databases and the critical need to focus on relevance, not personalization. We also look at some marketers’ concerns about personalized URLs, including how they relate to other data-gathering techniques, including website forms.

About this product: Content Distribution Networks (CDNs) are a rapidly growing service on the Internet. CDNs distribute and co-locate content to be geographically close to the users (of the content). This content mirroring 1) reduces the load on the origin server, 2) reduces traffic on the Internet, and 3) improves response time to the users. For CDNs to be feasible, methods of routing of HTTP requests originating from users are needed. URL routers need routing tables similar to IP routing tables in IP routers. However, the methods used for IP routing cannot scale to URL routing. In URL routing the number of destination addresses (URLs) greatly exceeds the number of IP addresses. In addition, URLs are not stable - new ones are constantly created and old ones disappear. The large size of URLs, their very large number, and their dynamic nature makes URL routing a difficult problem. This is the problem that is addressed in this book.
