View clicks data right on your homepage any minute you want
For any news website, it’s critical to monitor which news story is climbing the ranks. IO dashboard helps you track the performance of each article on your homepage so you can optimize the performance of your news blocks in the most beneficial way.
Managing your news homepage effectively allows you to:
-
Distribute content on your homepage according to reader interest
-
Spot overperformers instantly and react quickly
-
Experiment with articles’ positions to see how it affects reader engagement
-
Define underperforming articles and replace them with the content that stands a higher chance to shine
We consider 3 important metrics when reporting on your articles’ performance:
Page views (CTR)
Average time on page
Recirculation
For small homepages
When one article doesn’t appear repeatedly, use homepage overlay to instantly see the number of clicks for each article.
For big homepages:
-
Track an article’s performance in different news blocks.
-
Monitor the performance of each block. Watch how an article affects overall block performance. If the current article in the news block performs less than average for this block — change the picture, re-write the headline or start headline test.

Managing your news homepage allows you to define what correlates with reader interest every day and better monetize the most trending articles by placing them on hot spots. It also singles out underperforming content that you may remove or replace right on time. Instant feedback from your readers makes your whole workflow efficient by encouraging acting on data which guarantees greater engagement in the long run.
Automatically display the best performing headline for each article

reduce bounce rate
Experiment frequently to:

How Can Content Analytics Help Monetize My Website?Content engagement directly correlates with the viewability of your sales inventory. Content Analytics tools let you make faster and smarter decisions to achieve goals you’ve set. Reports that you receive produce a comprehensive picture of what your visitors/readers/prospects want and how your content meets their expectations. The more loyal your audience becomes, the more traffic you drive in, the more revenue your site generates.

What Are Your Advantages Over Google Analytics?Standard web analytics tools (like Google Analytics) contain a lot of data that's irrelevant to content teams. In order to stay universal and free, Google Analytics makes sacrifices by delaying your data and lowering accuracy (e.g. sampling). Content analytics tools provide insights that are focused on digital content. Engagement metrics, such as readability rate (how engaging content is), recirculation (how often your reader chooses to read another story), session depth (how readers interact with your materials) are used in fast-paced news environment by many teams across the globe. With such tools at hand, you can benchmark your content quality at any given moment in time without interruptions.
