Reader analytics dashboard

Find out how to use the dashboard to see how an individual reader interacted with your content

Updated over 2 weeks ago

Use the Reader dashboard to find out more about one of your readers and how they interacted with your content, such as the number of reads, shares, and average read time.

Note: The Reader dashboard is only available if you are utilizing individualized analytics. Find out more about how to get individualized analytics here.



Accessing the Reader dashboard

Within the Teams Dashboard, select the name of the Reader under the “Audience” tab that you would like to review analytics for.

Note: You can also select the reader from the Readers tab within the Turtl Docs dashboard to see the reader's analytics for that particular Turtl Doc.


Navigating the Reader dashboard

There are filters at the top of the dashboard to select from. By default, you can see one row of filters, but simply click on the "Show all filters" on the top right of the filters to show all filters available.

Throughout the dashboard, you’re also able to see comparisons that show how metrics have changed over time. You can view these comparisons as either:

  • Compared to the previous period - this is the same timeframe prior, e.g. if you’re currently filtered on data from the last 30 days, the comparison would be vs the previous 30 days.

  • Compared to last year - this is the same period last year, e.g. if you’re currently filtered on the last 30 days, the comparison would be vs the same 30 day period last year.

First, switch on comparisons using the toggle to the right of the tab titles. To change how the comparisons are calculated, use the dropdown once enabled.

Comparison metrics show the difference in percentage by default, but simply hover over any comparison metrics to see the absolute difference.


Using tables in the dashboard

In any tables in the dashboard, you can use the following functionality.

You can switch on/off the comparison metrics using the toggle above the top right of the table.

You can show/hide any of the available columns by clicking the button in the top right corner of the table.

You can sort any of the tables by clicking on any of the column headers. You’ll be able to see how the table is currently sorted as an arrow will appear next to the column header.

You can search tables by clicking the search icon next to a table title.

There is a number in brackets next to the title column of each table. This number shows the number of rows within the table.

  • Users who are logged into Turtl won’t be counted in any of the analytics. If you need to test whether your analytics are pulling through as expected, use an incognito window in your browser. Please also allow up to 5 minutes for your dashboards to update with the most recent data.
