Here is a step by step breakdown of your event report, how it works and what you can expect to see. Once you are viewing your report you will see that it is made up of a number of sections. We have put together a simple guide for you to fully understand your report. Firstly let's start with what it looks like.
Overall Reach
- Total number of sites - This represents the total number of sites that the event has been submitted to, this number is totally dependent on the category, location and the level of targeting required for the event.
- Total number of sites live - This represents the number of actual live links we have been issued by the sites publishing the event. We believe all event sites should supply back a live link and we work very hard to educate publishers on the importance of supplying live links of the events we supply.
- Total number of sites submitted - The site has not supplied a live link either because they have editorial controls or do not have the technical ability to supply a live link per event submitted. We also mark data submitted where we have supplied data to events data licensing companies who feed out events information to larger print an online publishers.
- Total Unique Audience Site Reach - We work with event publishers to understand the consumer audience and specifically the site unique user volume that use the site, where the site declares the total monthly site uniques we include in the event report.
- Total Local Uniques - We take a view that because your event is local, we should give you a better feel of the number of local event consumers that will potentially see your event - this figure is based estimated and based on roughly 1% of the total declared site traffic.
- Mobile Apps - Where a publisher has a mobile app and your event will be published and seen via mobile event consumers we track and give you total mobile coverage by the number of unique mobile apps.
- Natural Search - Event search on all 5 major search engines - We know how powerful it is to broadcast and publish an event on to a large network of event sites and we wanted to give you a way to see your event indexing.
