Which metrics matter most to your business?

For my future business, in my opinion, both 'Social Media' and 'Conversion' metrics will matter the greatest to me. As someone who would like to dive into the streetwear business (and HEAVILY market myself online as a ton of my favorite brands do), I will need to have a strong understanding of said business proceedings on a digital scale, both through online sales and social media impressions. We live in a. World nowadays where people cannot manage to get OFF of their phones, so I believe that as a business owner... you should take advantage of that! Especially if it costs you nothing.

Conversions: Ths tells me if people are doing what I want them to do, like buying stuff or signing up.

Engagement Rate: This shows if people like my stuff, share it, and comment on it.

Bounce Rate: This tells me how many people leave after seeing just one page, which shows if my content is interesting and good quality.

As a business owner and content creator, there are several metrics I can use as benchmarks, such as tracking content growth through likes, comments, and shares. Additionally, I evaluate how people respond to the product and how many are interested in the products we sell

Right now I am mainly a "content creator" so my most important metrics are engagement on social media. Specifically likes, comments and shares.

Open, then click rates are most that matters to the ones in charge of our company. I use both percentages and track month to month (due to the seasons) and compare year over year. However, we have seen inverse ralationships between high click rates and low conversions.

it's page views that matters most at the moment, because we care about how long people stay on our website and our social media platforms. So page views at the moment

For us, it's the cost per lead. If we're spending money to get content in front of people, then we want to convert them to either visit our website or engage with the content itself. It helps build our future lookalike audiences while also converting leads—creating two benefits for the price of one.

We care about how long people stay on your website because we don't want them to accidentally being auto searching it, but instead being on it for a reason

My business is promoting myself as a dark fantasy romance author through my social media platforms, newsletter, blog, and author website. To determine successful content there will be several factors I can use to measure across the various platforms. For my webpage and blog, key word tracking, and referral traffic will matter. For my social media platforms will factor in reach, impressions and engagement. The larger audience I can reach and the more engagement I can encourage the more successful my content. My newsletter, blog, and emails will require my attention to gaining subscribers. All these different ways of tracking the success of the content aligns with the platform type as well as how my target audiene view my specific content type.

We rely heavily on email campaigns so open rate and click rate are the two metrics I work with the most. Web traffic would be the next one, I think.
