Not everything can be measured by clicks
Blogs, news sites or page with no links (i.e. YouTube)
The more reputable the news outlet, the less likely to
provide a direct link
Interest generated is often not immediate
Sometimes requires multiple touch points for
interest to develop
Complements traditional click-through reports

PR Optimization
Search
Last Click Attribution is Not Always Accurate
Last Click Attribution refers to
crediting the last click that a user
made to a site conversion.
In reality, conversion may have
been caused by a number of
touch points in the form of PR,
social media, video, etc.
Understanding how these
assets affect your search
volume and conversion rate is
critical in determining which of
your online marketing initiatives
are most effective.
POLL
Brand Related Search
The majority of corporate search traffic is brand specific.
Until now, there was no easy solution to understand which digital
assets drive brand related traffic from search.
View-through enables marketers to identify which non-linked
content (PR, social media, video, etc.) drives the most brand
related search activity and conversions.
Brand Related Search
Non-Brand Related Search The same digital assets that drive brand
related search may also help to generate
non-brand related search.
View-through technology identifies the
segment of “generic” search traffic that
was exposed to digital assets being
tracked.
Helps identify which marketing campaigns
have the most influence in capturing non-
brand related search.
Can also be used to identify multiple
search query behavior.
Bookmarks
Bookmarks
“Bookmarks” act as a catch-all
scenario in web analytics programs.
This can include many different
scenarios where there is no referrer,
including:
Re-direct
Actual Bookmarks
Directly Typed
View-through data gives insight into
the origin or influencers of this traffic.

Recommendations
