Website effectiveness network

The web effectiveness group operates across private, public and non-governmental sectors and has more than 200 members across Europe, North America and Asia helping you to stay in touch with the key operational and strategic issues – and how they are being addressed by fellow members around the world.

While most of the members work in Fortune 500 corporations, we welcome senior managers from public sector and non-governmental organisations with responsibility for large web presences. Managers from very different organizations discover that they are facing the same challenges, and share ways to tackle them.

Membership benefits

Member-hosted member-only networking events

Group meetings are based round two presentations on top-of-agenda issues, but invariably develop into lively discussions that reveal practical insights into current challenges and future opportunities for online communications. But as big a draw as the topics is the opportunity to network with fellow professionals in an informal environment.

Each meeting is hosted by a network member and they are held at different locations around the world. Since 2003 there have been more than 20 meetings. As a group member you can attend as many meetings as you wish or keep up to speed through access to all speaker presentations and the anonymised minutes.

Unique market research

With Bowen Craggs as a facilitators you can request invaluable, and cost-free, market research from among your peers. Need to know how others deal with specific issues? Ask the group and get real answers fast.
