Parsely: Content Publishing Analytics Done Right

If your company is investing in the development of content, you'll find standard analytics nothing less than frustrating. Here are a few reasons… authors, categories, publication dates and tagging. There are specific questions you get asked by your company that you simply can't answer:

• What content that we published this month performed the best?
• What author drives the most traffic to our site?
• What tags are most popular?
• What categories of content are most popular?

Parse.ly partners with digital publishers to provide clear audience insights through an intuitive analytics platform. Thousands of writers, editors, site managers, and technologists already use Parse.ly to understand what content draws in website visitors, and why. Parse.ly's dashboards and APIs are used by customers to build successful digital strategies that allow them to grow and engage a loyal audience.
