It’s been a while you brand new explainer video is embed in your website.
We are sure your video is of the highest quality and perfectly represents the
spirit of your business and product. But how are you going to measure it’s
effective performance? In order to measure the success of your 2D animated
video, take into consideration a few key performance indicators also known as
KPI’s. The following metrics will certainly help you to accurately measure the
success of your explainer video.
Bounce rate and time-on page of the video
What is bounce rate?
The percentage of viewers who come to your website and leave it without
browsing on any other page on the website is known as the bounce rate.
What is time-on page?
The time spent by the visitors on your webpage who did not bounce is the
time-on page.
With the help of these two concepts you’ll be able to measure the
overall performance of the page (where your video is embedded). Let’s say if
the bounce rate is high (60%) combined with a low time on site then it might be
an indication that the page as well as the animated explainer video needs adjustments and changes.
Generally the average attention span of a visitor is 10-20 seconds on a
website. They are likely to stay for a longer time on a good page with clear
and concise value proposition. A high quality animated explainer video will
hold attention of the viewer, will increase time-on page and hopefully also
decrease the bounce rate. In two minutes the audience if the audience is
persuaded and convinced to make a purchase then it’s you’re totally in the
winner’s circle of success.
Video click-through rate and View-through rate
Now when it comes to monitoring precisely the performance of your
explainer video then two metrics can be used Video click-through rate
(CTR), is the number of viewers who click on a video out of the total viewers
who view the page. Your animated explainer video is considered more effective if the video CTR is high.
Whereas, the View-Through Rate (VTR) is the ratio of the video completely
viewed vs. the total number of page views. In other words, the number of people
who landed on your page and watched the video till the end.
SEO Ranking
One effective way of tracking the performance of your animated explainer
video is comparing how your site ranked before and after embedding it on your homepage.
When the video is good then it increases the viewer’s time on the webpage and
automatically reduces the bounce rate. This in turn, helps the site rank better
in search engines and consequently improves web traffic (alongwith other SEO
tactics).
And before we sign off, we leave you with a few questions that might
help you further measuring your animated
explainer video’s performance:
- Is your marketing video placed in area that’s easily visible on the website?
- Does it give out a clear, entertaining and informative message?
- How enaging and appealing is the thumbnail or the video?
- Is the content that’s around and inside the video matching with each other?
