The Ultimate Guide to Branded Community ROI and 53+ Things to Measure

April 13 2010 by ~ 18 Comments

Over the past few months, I’ve written a 9-part series of articles on measurement and ROI for branded online communities. This series includes some ideas for things you can measure to help you determine what the ROI is for your community. The series also covers  some activities and metrics to examine that may not have a direct financial impact on your business, but can still be very valuable.

I covered over 53 things you can measure in this series.

I wanted to consolidate this series of articles to help you see easily see them all in one place. You can see each of the posts in the series by clicking on the links below or see them all together by clicking this community measurement link.

Part 1 – How to Measure the ROI of Your Community Website

Part 2 -  Overall Statistics

Part 3 – Content and Activity

Part 4 – Member Info

Part 5 - Influence

Part 6 – Sales Information

Part 7 – Community Messages

Part 8 – Other Ideas

Part 9 – ROI

I hope you find these posts valuable. Remember – it’s up to you to define goals and objectives for your community so you can decide which metrics are important for you.

If you aren’t setting benchmarks and measuring, you’ll probably end up like other marketers who are unsure if social media can generate measurable results.
