Detailed Explanation
This chunk focuses on the key metrics used to measure content performance. Each metric provides valuable insights into how well content is engaging with the audience:
- Time on page: This metric indicates how long visitors are staying on a webpage, reflecting their interest in the content.
- Scroll depth: This measures how far down the page viewers scroll, indicating whether they are reading the content fully or leaving early.
- Social shares: This shows how often content is shared on social media platforms, which can amplify reach and engagement.
- Organic traffic growth: This reflects how much traffic is coming to the content from search engines, indicating its effectiveness in SEO.
- Conversion from content: This metric tracks how many visitors take a desired action, such as signing up for a newsletter or purchasing a product, after engaging with the content.
Examples & Analogies
Think of a restaurant. The time on page might be compared to how long diners stay at their table, indicating how much they are enjoying their meals. Scroll depth could be like the diners exploring the menu: if they only look at a couple of items and then leave, they may not be fully engaged. Social shares are similar to guests recommending the restaurant to friends. Organic traffic growth can be likened to the number of new customers coming based on word-of-mouth or online reviews. Finally, conversion from content is analogous to diners deciding to order dessert after their meal.
