If everything on the web can be
measured, why are we having so
much difficulty?
Perhaps it’s the process not the tools….

Traffic Metrics
What traffic tells you:– How effective your outreach and third party social media
efforts are in driving visits to your main site
– How effective your content is in meeting audience needs
– What content is popular with visitors and what is not
– Where your visitors are coming from
– What pages/offerings are ‘sticky’

Value Metrics
Value equals economic value in terms that make sense for the
business– Value is extremely difficult to measure until your members start interacting with each other and
the site on a regular basis
Analysis is difficult if you base it on social media and site metrics
alone – Be Creative and Build Relationships!– The best value analysis comes from comparing member behaviors against CRM data , but you
must unmask your followers/fans/visitors first in order to start moving towards value
Examples of Value Metrics– Purchase frequency or amount of active member vs average customer
– Lift in sales from use of exclusive offer or code (trial offers)
– Cost of lead generated through social media vs traditional direct mail or tele-marketing efforts
– Customer/Partner/VAR share of wallet or organizational revenues contributed
