Panel Title: Loyalty and Revenue: The New User Metrics
Moderator: Jason Alcorn, MediaShift
Panelists: Denise Law, The Economist; Dave Burdick, Denverite
What user metrics matter most when reader loyalty is your goal? Right now a tectonic shift is happening in publishing from a click-driven era to one that is community-driven. How publishers respond today can determine if they will succeed in building an audience that shows up tomorrow and every day after.
This panel will include a discussion with publishers who are the forefront of thinking about how to measure user loyalty in this new community-driven era to strengthen their brands and use a loyal readership to grow revenue for their businesses.
