This coming Monday, June 17, I’ll be speaking at the NYC Open Analytics Summit. During my session, How People Consume Content on the Web, I’ll be covering Chartbeat’s approach to defining new metrics: the process of going from conversations with customers to research to building technical infrastructure.
In particular, I’ll go over the research that went into measuring Engaged Time and audience development. I’ll also throw in some interesting bits of data that we’ve learned from looking at these metrics across tens of billions of browsing sessions per month.
If you’ve wanted to hear a bit more about the process behind our metrics — either the reasoning or the technical implementation — I’d encourage you to attend. And, if you do, track me down before or after the talk!
Webinar topic: Understanding how to leverage your video inventory and build a loyal audience
Great video content is a huge aspect of your site’s overall health – that much is clear, but what’s the strategy for something that hasn’t traditionally had a strategy in the past? In last month’s awesome webinar we went over ways to get the most of out of your existing video library and covered topics ranging from helping underperforming videos find new audiences to getting maximum ROI out of existing videos. Check out the webinar below, and feel free to suggest future webinar topics in the Comments section below.
