 Measure The Web aims to bridge this gap, by providing evidence-based guidance for empirical web measurement studies. The platform evaluates design choices and their implications by referencing relevant academic publications or conducting original studies where necessary. Measure The Web aims to bridge this gap, by providing evidence-based guidance for empirical web measurement studies.

-For novice researchers in the web measurement field, Measure The Web should provide a complete knowledge base to conduct their study. But it should be helpful also to experienced researchers, who can find here newest practices or proper arguments (or citations) to justify their design. If you are in a mentoring position, consider sharing the website (or directly [[Study design checklist]]) to your mentees and also consider reviewing and contributing to the page. Even small edits, such as supporting some subjective claim, can help make this website stronger.+For novice researchers in the web measurement field, Measure The Web should provide a complete knowledge base to conduct their study.
