The dashboard is made of 2 main sections Content and Performance. The content section provides insights as to how your content is engaging your audience. The Performance section is displayed once you've configured a conversion goal, and it shows the total conversions completed and the website's conversion rate (%). Next to the conversions graph you can see the top sources of your conversions and the top content items. Select the timeframe you wish to view at the top right: 4
To setup your conversion goals, go on the Main Menu at the left to Conversions, and choose "New Conversion Goal" at the top right: If your goal URL is outside the site, you need to add a tracking code to that page to allow the system to track successful conversions: 5
To setup your call to actions, like banners or forms, go on the Main Menu at the left to Call to Actions, and choose "New Call to Action": You can choose between Banner or Form. If you would like to setup a lead/sign up form, fill in the relevant fields. If you are interested in integration to 3 rd parties like MailChimp or other services, please contact our support for more info: 6
TrenDemon can scan your site and automatically populate the discovery feed with your most effective pages. You can also define custom pages to promote (external content, for example). Here is how to add them: 1) Go to Content on the left menu, and select New Custom Content: 2) Define the URL, title, description and add any media (image or video) you want to include. When done, press Save: 7
You can manage the auto populated content the system has found during the scan. 1) To view scan results, go to Content > Scan Results (at the top): 2) The scan results show which pages the system has found on your site, relevant media they have, if there are any issues with how they are configured (for example, if no og:image tag or title is defined) and when they are expected to appear on the discovery feed (since content items are published to the feed in a pre-defined manner. You can change those setting, more on that below). From this page, you can also instruct the system to ignore certain pending pages if you don't want them to appear on your users' feed or upload other media (images) to replace those that were found (Upload): 5) 8
