RebelMouse offers unique, customizable GA4 dashboards through Google Looker Studio that provide key insights into
the metrics that matter most to publishers. We give our clients the ability to quickly understand the performance of their sites so that they can then make important decisions on the fly. Here's what you get from the standard setup:
General Site Performance
Content Performance
Primary Sections, Authors, and Primary Tags Performance
The General Site Performance page of our Looker Studio dashboard showcases baseline stats like views, users, sessions, views per user, sessions per user, engaged time per user, and engagement rate, as well as key traffic metrics grouped by their sources:
Facebook traffic
Google traffic
LinkedIn traffic (customizable to your top referral)
Twitter traffic (customizable to your top referral)
Toward the bottom, we include the performance of GA4's Default Channel Grouping and an overview of performance by device.
Content Performance
The Content Performance page of our Looker Studio dashboard shows you which content is performing the best. You can filter by the following parameters to drill down into the data:
Page path (page URL)
Author
Channel
Device
Layout
Social Platform
Primary Section
Primary Sections, Authors, and Primary Tags Performance
The Primary Sections, Authors, and Primary Tags Performance page of our Looker Studio dashboard allows you to see which primary section, author, and primary tag is performing the best during a specific time frame.
Audience and Demographics Performance
The Audience and Demographics Performance page in our Looker Studio helps you understand your audience better based on their demographics, gender, age, geolocation, and which day sees the highest content consumption, as well as the breakdown by device.
This page is applicable when you enable Google Signals inside your GA4 settings.
Loyalty Performance
The Loyalty Performance page of your Looker Studio shows different levels of loyalty, or fan level. We have defined five levels of loyalty audience groups as follows:
New Visitors: users who initiated 1 session
Returning Visitors: users who initiated 2 or more sessions
Loyal Visitors: users who initiated 3 or more sessions
Fans: users who initiated 4 or more sessions
Super Fans: users who initiated 5 or more sessions
This gives you great insight into the amount of traffic that is returning to your site. As you can see in our example above, we also see that as loyalty grows, pages per user and time per user also grow.
Google Search Console Performance
The Google Search Console Performance page sources data from your Google Search Console account. We can see metrics such as search impressions, search clicks, CTR, and average position (rank). We can filter them by page, query, search type, country, and device category to help dig deeper into the data.
Included at the bottom of the page are tables of top-performing content inside Google Search Console, as well as top-performing keywords (queries) as reported by the same.
Questions Search Performance
The Questions Search Performance page sources insights from Google Search Console, where we can see which Frequently Asked Questions from users are bringing in the most visitors to your site.
Source/Medium Performance
The Source/Medium Performance page showcases which sources/mediums and UTM tracking tags are bringing in the most traffic to your site. There are filtering options at the top of the page that allow you to filter by sources, mediums, and time frame.
Referrals Performance
Similar to the Source/Medium Performance page, the Referrals Performance page showcases referral traffic specifically. There are filtering options at the top of the page that allow you to filter by referral source and time frame.
Paid vs. Non-Paid Traffic Performance
This page of our Looker Studio dashboard allows you to compare common paid vs. non-paid traffic performance.
This is built on filtering which follows the industry's most common UTMs for paid sources.
UTMs included as paid traffic are:
Source/Medium which contains "CPC" (Cost per Click)
Source/Medium which contains "PPC" (Pay per Click)
Source/Medium which contains "Paid"
If you are by chance using a custom paid campaign with unique UTM parameters, feel free to reach out to us about the unique UTM name and we can adjust your Looker Studio dashboard page to include your unique paid UTM campaign.
Layout Performance
The Layout Performance page of our Looker Studio dashboard allows you to compare different page layouts on your site and review their performance against traffic.
If you have any questions about your site’s Looker Studio dashboard, contact your account manager or email support@rebelmouse.com.

RebelMouse
brings the strengths of a large publisher (large datasets, expertise, lessons learned from trial and error, close
relationships with search and ad platforms) to smaller publishers. During the build and launch, the team went above
and beyond to ensure we were happy with the new site, and
they flawlessly migrated over 20,000 articles. I can't recommend them highly enough.

We're in a much better position to make it through the current crisis in part due to RebelMouse and their platform.
We've not only saved on overhead costs, we've more easily optimized our traffic with their smart measuring and SEO
tools, as well as their social integrations.

THANK YOU for all the good, fast work you put into making our public rollout such a big success. I know we threw a lot
at you very quickly, but you were calm under pressure and pulled it all off perfectly. Very glad to be working with
you all.

So inspired and impressed by these results from RebelMouse. Check them out and ask Andrea Breanna how they got there!
Just goes to show that spending millions doesn't necessarily get you to the right destination. It's spending no more
than you need on the right technology with the right platform that does! 🌐💙🏎️

to meet our needs. Everyone willingly (and with endless patience!) shares their expertise and insights to ensure we
optimize search and create a great audience experience. As we have implemented the various search tactics, positive
results are almost instantaneous. Training our content creators has been simple. The system is incredibly user
friendly. As a co-worker commented, "RebelMouse doesn't just sell you something, they partner with you to deliver
exactly what you want." I couldn't agree more!

The best thing about RebelMouse is how much they care about their customers. When working with them, I always get a
sense that they go above and beyond for their customers. When working with the RebelMouse team, I very much consider
them to be a partner, rather than just a vendor. Upon migrating to their technology, we have seen tremendous
improvements in many key areas, particularly technical SEO. They have out-of-the-box functionality that is
tremendously helpful to customers. At the same time, their system is flexible enough to allow us to adapt it to any
new business needs that we have.

RebelMouse has shepherded us through the modernization phase, and has been keen, practical, and nimble throughout the
entire journey. They have helped modernize our website through an infinite scroll setup that allows us more
advertising real estate while creating more time on site to capture reader engagement. Plus, the RebelMouse team has
helped educate our own team on the various aspects of programmatic advertising and worked to best implement them.
