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.

For more information about these options, please review: Filtering Your Insights.

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.

Categories: 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 Subscribers who have been sent a piece of Content. This is calculated using the formula (Audience Reach / Delivers).

Example

The News Digest (with this piece of Content) is delivered to 150 Subscribers and 90 of those Subscribers open that News Digest. Based on these numbers, the Audience reach is 90. This means this piece of Content reached 60% of the Audience.

Impressions: The total number of opportunities your Subscribers had to view your Content across the reporting period. An impression does not mean that the Subscriber engaged with the Content. It just means that the Content appeared on their screen.

Example

Subscriber β€œA” is shown 7 pieces of Content inside their News Digest, and Subscriber β€œB” is shown 9 pieces of Content in their News Digest. These Subscribers would log 16 Impressions.

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). EX.

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%.
