  ‘Data is better than gut’: Gather, analyze, act




          Photos on Flickr by Emran Kassim, left, and Vee Dub (CC-BY)
THE METRICS PROCESS


              INFORMATION




               INSIGHTS
                 KPIs
             Who, how, why

Funnel           ACTION
of love
Map goals to metrics
Goals                               KPIs to measure

• Grow email list                   # newsletter subscribers

• SEO: Increase online visibility   increase in traffic or linkback #s

• Increase comments on blog         avg. # comments/post
• Increase positive mentions of     mentions or pick-ups in blogs
  organization or program           & social networks
• Have visitors stick around        stick rate, bounce rate
• Make our content more viral       # of shares
• Get people to take action         # of petition signatures
• Get people to attend event        # of registrants, year over year
KEYWORDS ARE KEY



What does your site rank for?
     Search your own site’s keyword juju
      on semrush.com & spyfu.com
New metrics of engagement
                Beyond page views
                 "We don't really care about
                  page views as much as we
                 care about comments. If we
                get 1,000 video views, that is
                  good. The comments are a
                     focus group with our
                   influencers. If they like it,
                   they'll spread it and that
                      helps get us to our
                           objectives."
                 - Jake Brewer, PowerShift

5. GOVERNMENT USE OF SOCIAL MEDIA



Open government
                          When citizens believe
                          their governments are
                               sharing more
                           information, they are
                             more likely to feel
                          satisfied with civic life.

Key takeaways
• Begin with an aligned strategy,
  not with the tools.

• Measure, measure, measure!
  Evaluate, iterate, relaunch.

• Tell your stories.
• Use your community — your
  biggest resource: your advocates!
Don’t settle for the status quo

If you do not change
  direction, you may
end up where you are
       heading.


      — Lao Tse
Thank you, let’s talk!
