Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)
In the KPI table, we break down the content by Articles, Pages, Other and All Content.
- Articles refer to the responsive articles, shown in Reading View.
- Pages refer to the physical pages digitized from your PDFs, shown in Page View.
- Other refers to all content that is not an article or page. For example, banner ads, TOC, Library page, etc.
- All Content will give you the total number for each column. Articles + Pages + Other will equal All Content for all columns, except for Unique Readers and Total Sessions.
The table below defines each metric within the KPI table on the Overview tab.
Definitions of KPI Metrics
Metric | Definition | Calculation |
Unique Readers | The number of unique readers that viewed a piece of content within the date range. A reader is determined to be unique based on cookies stored on their device. If possible, GTxcel will count a subscriber as one unique reader even if they access content from multiple different devices during the date range. | Unique ‘content viewed’ events |
Total Views | The number of times a piece of content was viewed within the date range. A piece of content can be an article, a replica page, an interstitial advertisement, a table of contents, or a popup. | Total ‘content viewed’ events |
Total Duration | The sum of the duration of all content views within the date range. | Total duration of ‘content viewed’ events |
Total Sessions | The number of sessions that took place within the date range. A session is a group of interactions that take place within a period of time that starts when a reader views a piece of content and ends after 30 minutes of inactivity. | Total unique session IDs associated with at least one ‘content viewed’ event |
Bounce Rate | The number of sessions that included only one content view as a percentage of all sessions during the date range. | (Total sessions containing just one content view / Total sessions) x 100 |
Average Views per Reader | The average number of content views that each user viewed within the date range. | Total ‘content viewed’ events / Total Unique Readers |
Average Duration per Reader | The average time that each user spent reading during the date range. | Total duration of ‘content viewed’ events / Total Unique Readers |
