  • Who: This shows who completed the action, along with the information the user has agreed to share with you.
  • Action: The Action being completed by the user
  • Details: Any information submitted by the user via the User Details form or for that specific action. This can include things like the Tweet URL, @profile, photos, videos and also any Custom Fields
  • Where: The location of the user
  • When: The time of entry (this shows your local time which is controlled in your user settings)
  • Worth: The number of entries this Action is worth, you can configure this during setup
  • Status: Actions can have 3 statuses - Valid, Invalid and Winner

In exports the each individual line in the Details column will have its own individual column in the CSV.

Common Reporting Terms

Before we jump into the Reporting it's important to understand some of the terminology used so you can make sense of things.

  • Impressions: This is a count of the individual number of times a user has viewed the campaign. It will only count 1 view per user per 24 hours
  • Actions: Actions are individual entry methods inside your campaign, when one is completed we consider it as an Action completed
  • Entries: Actions can have a value of more than 1, this means that Entries equate to Actions complete x Entry Worth.
  • Users: The number of unique users that have entered your campaign
  • Conversion Rate: This is the percentage of users that have entered your campaign after viewing it (the platform average is ~34%)
  • Events: These are optional metrics outside what you're directly incentivizing in the campaign (i.e. Facebook Likes)

The Viral Share report shows a more specific breakdown of how well the Viral Share Action is performing and also show you who your most prolific sharers are.

  • Viral Share Clicks: This shows how much traffic Viral Sharers have sent to your campaign by sharing via the various sources you've configured during campaign setup
  • Successful Viral Sharers: How many Users have entered the campaigns as a direct result of a Viral Share
  • Viral Conv. Rate: The Conversion Rate of Clicks to Users (if this is low then it's an indication that the audience isn't resonating with the shares)

You can also limit the number of maximum Viral Shares inside the campaign which can skew this reporting, daily actions may also do the same.
