Measurement Framework

How We MeasureResults

A metrics framework built for clarity, accountability, and real business outcomes.

MAINERMEDIA evaluates performance using a structured measurement system designed to reflect real attention, real engagement, and real conversion—not vanity metrics.

4 Dimensions

Reach

Visibility that matters

Depth

Trust and intent

Business impact

Not vanity metrics. Real outcomes.

The Problem

Why Most Metrics Fail

Many organizations track activity instead of impact.

Is the right audience paying attention?

Do they trust what they see?

Does it compound over time?

Does it produce measurable outcomes?

MAINERMEDIA measures results differently.
Our Approach

Our Measurement Framework

Four dimensions that provide a complete picture of performance.

Dimension 1

Reach

We measure visibility that matters—not raw exposure.

Representative Signals:

Total organic views
Accounts reached
Discovery-driven growth
Geographic relevance

"Reach is only valuable when it is targeted, organic, and sustainable."

Dimension 2

Depth

Depth indicates trust and intent.

Representative Signals:

Comment quality
Save/share behavior
Watch time
Direct interaction

"Engagement depth matters more than surface-level activity."

Dimension 3

Retention

Retention measures whether content continues working over time.

Representative Signals:

Long-tail views
Evergreen performance
Search discovery
Repeat audience

"Compounding content is infrastructure—not a campaign."

Dimension 4

Conversion

Attention must translate into outcomes.

Representative Signals:

Profile → inquiries
Content → leads
Content → sales
Content → partners

"Conversion defines success. Everything else is supporting data."

Leadership Insights

What These Metrics Tell Leadership

How visibility turns into business impact

If a metric does not support decision-making, we do not prioritize it.

Results Are Engineered—Not Assumed

By measuring the right signals and ignoring noise, content becomes a predictable, compounding asset rather than an expense.
