Digital Rain Creates User History and Tracking Module for Self-Publishing Websites.

This latest module was developed to track and log site visitors, and to allow site administrators to Find Users, Search Users and to Analyze User Data. Sorting data by Name, Date, or Visited Page, the administrator can quickly see who is responding to marketing campaigns, where they go in relation to that campaign, and what information they are finding the most valuable. It also allows the administrator to follow-up directly on the needs of registered guests through "permission based" login forms, and to assign varying degrees of Access Rights to members of their organization who may benefit from selected pieces of this tracking knowledge. User tracking is now an indispensible tool for analyzing the success of your web presence or online marketing campaign.

Oxford Advisors Ltd. is a prestigious and exclusive International "Fund" management organization.

Dymaxium's "Digital Rain" division designed and programmed the site to move them into the internet "self-publishing" realm by re-developing and redesigning a new website (Digital Rain developed their first site a number of years ago), that will provide the "administrator" (Oxford) with the ability to add, delete, and edit content of the site via the internet, and from any Internet Explorer (5.5 or higher) enabled computer with internet access. Their changes in the website content are made using technology that allows the user to simply add text to defined fields, publishing it live to the web, instantly. There is no programming required by the "administrator". The "administrator" also has the ability to upload images to the site within these fields.

An additional engine was created allowing them to change the format of the content (bold, font, color etc.) without relying on html or asp. protocols.

The purpose of this website is to provide their existing, and potential, clients a "clear" picture of Oxford as a well-established system and with a highly successful history in the fund and hedge fund industry.
