Parse.ly Product & Support Updates

  • Product update: August 10, 2023

    Update to converting visitor and converting visitor rate

    Conversions are viewable in a number of ways, and we’ve introduced several new ones with this update.

    The Conversions Count is the sheer volume number of how many conversions happened for the content you are viewing. The Conversions Rate is what %  of those page views converted.

    What’s new in this update is that we are introducing Visitors as a metric for Conversions Count and Conversions Rate. Previously, it was calculated via Page Views. Now you can select between either Page Views or Visitors.

    Converting Visitors is available everywhere you can see Conversions, and Converting Visitor Rate is available everywhere you can see conversion rates.

    New metric: conversion rate

    It’s important to know how effective your content is at converting visitors. Of course, posts with a high number of page views are likely to get the highest number of conversions. But what about those lower traffic posts which are converting at a higher rate? Conversion rates can help you identify those high-value pages. Learn more about this new feature here.

    Filter posts by words in the title

    You can now filter your posts by a single word or multiple words in a title. Use this to exclude posts with certain title words, or to focus on posts with certain words in the title. Level up your filtering by then creating a Saved View you can refer to in the future.

    This is available as a filtering option on the posts view in your dashboard. Learn more about filters here.
