The Content Insights page shows you metrics related to the Content published inside your Insights. To see these metrics, go to Insights > Content.

📄 Recommended Reading: Filtering Insights

The metrics available for insights can be filtered to narrow or example results, including Campaigns, Segments, and more. The information presented is also dependent on the reporting period you select from the time filter in the upper right hand corner of your screen - this filter is based on Publish Date of the Content when viewing Content Insights.

To learn more, please review: Insights Actions.

Content Metrics

Once you're on the Individual Content Metrics page, you will see metrics for all the Content published in your Instance during the selected reporting period.

When reading the table, the top row is the total metrics for the column and rows included.

Below are the columns of information you will see on this page:

Post

The title and post image for the piece of Content. You can view this piece of Content by clicking the icon below the title.

The number of Categories tagged to this piece of Content. If you click on this icon, you will see a pop-up modal that includes the names of the tagged Categories.

Segments

The number of Segments targeted or restricted to this piece of Content. Click the Segments icon to review a list that includes the name of the Segments and whether or not the Content was restricted to this Segment.

Source

The name of the source the Content was pulled from. If it was not pulled from a source, this will be blank.

Audience Reach

The number of Unique Subscribers who have had the opportunity to log an impression through all available channels.

Aggregate Audience Reach % = (Audience Reach / Delivers) * 100.

Example

A piece of Content is delivered to 150 Subscribers and 90 of those Subscribers open the News Digest. The Audience reach is 90. The Aggregate Audience Reach % is 60%.

Impressions

The total number of opportunities your Subscribers had to view your Content through all available channels. An Impression does not mean that the Subscriber engaged with the Content. It just means that the Content appeared on their screen.

Example

Subscriber “A” is shown a piece of Content inside their News Digest, and Subscriber “B” is shown the same piece of Content in their News Digest and when they visited the Content Archive. The total count of Impressions is 3.

Clicks

The unique number of times a Subscriber clicks on a piece of Content. This means that we count only the first time a Subscriber clicks on a piece of Content and no more times after that. This gives you an accurate representation of your Audiences engagement with your Content.

Example

If a Subscriber clicks on 3 separate pieces of Content in their News Digest, they will record 3 clicks.

Click Rate

The rate your Subscribers are clicking on the Content that is presented to them. This is calculated using the formula (Total Unique Clicks / Total Impressions).

Example

If 10 pieces of Content appear on my screen and I click on 3 separate pieces of Content, my Content Click Rate is 30%.

This page is broken up into two different tabs: Overview and Details.
