EURO 2016
WAKOOPA CASE STUDY
JUNE-AUGUST 2016
Motivation
International sport events are commonly acknowledged to have sales boosting effect on a
number of markets, especially in entertainment and betting industries.
Their commercial potential gets additionally enhanced by the development and expansion
of Internet communication technologies like online betting sites, video sharing servers and
social media.
In this regards, a natural issue of interest for firms who recognize sport fans as their target
customers is to know how active are the web users on a local level within a particular
country while its national team is competing at the final stage of a big sport forum.
Thanks to the wakoopa-based passive metering solution S/Marlowe, the analysts of
STEM/MARK were able to carry out a pilot behavioral study of the Czech web users’ online
activity during the UEFA Euro 2016.
EURO - CASE STUDY 2
Research Questions
The present STEM/MARK study aims at answering the following three key questions:
• What were the sport news servers mostly visited by the Czech respondents who
searched for information on the internet for the UEFA Euro 2016?
• Which events Czech football fans paid most attention to during the UEFA Euro 2016?
• What betting sites enjoyed highest popularity among the Czech panelists during
the UEFA Euro 2016? Which surfing paths they used to reach the betting servers?
EURO - CASE STUDY 3
Main Findings
The results of the study imply that:
Czech fans are rather not fans of football but of the Czech national team in football.
(After Czech team dropped out, football related pageviews dropped drastically as well)
Czech football fans are driven by negative events.
(The captain and the coach of the national team attracted most of fans’ attention after the
former was injured and the latter announced its resignation, respectively)
When searching for football related pages Czechs visit seznam.cz more than google.cz.
Tipsport.cz appears as a major betting hub on the Czech web which generates visits to
other bet-related sites like betradar.com. Betting traffic is induced by live tv streaming
servers, ceskatelevize.cz, livesport.cz, online.sport.cz, as well.
EURO - CASE STUDY 4
Project scope
• Cawi questionnaire about intentions to
watch EURO 2016 preceding the measuring
• a sample of 47 panelists that passed the
screening (intention to watch)
• wakoopa-based online metering solution
S/Marlowe is applied to track their browsing
behavior, namely
o main web locations visited by the seniors
o average frequency and duration of the seniors’
visits to different web sites
o for a period of 1 month (9.6. –11.7. 2016)

Number of football related pageviews
There were big expectations from the Czech team
(in Czech republic only)
The highest peaks in pageviews follow relatively
good results against
• Spain (loss after goal in the 85th minute)
• Croatia (tie after Czech penalty in the 90th
minute)
After the match with Turkey there are no high peaks
(the match ended Czech hopes)
During the rest of the championship there was low
volatile interest.

EURO - CASE STUDY 12
User engagement segmentation - sites
User engagement segmentation is based
on two measures:
• Frequency = breadth / loyalty
• Duration = depth / commitment
Chart only shows a selection of urls (either
frequently visited or topic related):
• Facebook – most visits, 30 sec avg.
• Youtube – over 1 minute avg.
• Sport.cz – 1 minute (reading articles)
• Goldenclix – 4 secs on page avg.
(pay-to-click page)
Betting: Tipsport is more often visited with
shorter duration (it may be easier to make
a bet there)

Restrictions
• Euro football fans were recruited online, therefore the studied
sample cannot be considered fully representative
• It is a pilot study - the number of panelists is too low to provide
more detailed analysis
In this regard, we would rather consider the presented results of
the survey as a demonstration of the potential of S/Marlowe
metrics for the purpose of market segmentation, target audience
classification and profiling.
