Dashboards: Top Outlets and Top Contributing Articles

Have you wondered: What are the top performing publications that are generating the most views and how are the views for those publications trending over time? Our Top Outlets widget provides you with how views for top performing publications trend over the time range you've selected and includes a list of articles that are garnering the most views for those top publications.

You can use the Top Outlets Widget drilldown feature to view each article and see individual article performance over time. You are also able to select a specific day in the date range to determine which articles received the most views from selected publications. With this tool, you are able to better understand which publications are generating the most engagement with your target audiences, along with details on what type of earned media content is driving engagement and how that engagement is trending over time!
