Visit South Walton ! Multi-Channel Analytics Report March 2015 1 CONSUMER SITE PERFORMANCE ©2013 Zehnder Communications, Inc. 2 OVERALL HEALTH Stick Rate is defined as the percent of visits that last more than one page. VSW’s March stick rate of 40% is slightly lower than the industry average of 55%, and is most likely lower due to the current online media campaigns. The industry standard for time spent on site was around 5:35, which is higher than the average 1:50 minutes that VSW visitors spent on the site in March. VSW site visitors viewed between 2-3 pages during their time on the site in March, which isn’t far behind the industry average of 4.16. These engagement metrics were almost identical to last month’s.

Visitation was highest this month compared to any prior month. Pageviews also continued to increase with a 40% growth difference compared to last year’s average amount of monthly pageviews. Despite that increases in visitation, bounce rate continues to increase, but seems to follow a trend compared to last year. Last year however, more pages were viewed per session starting in January, but it appears as if that is not the case this year with a 5% decrease in monthly average of pages viewed per session. 71,896 86,557 88,965 87,882 101,491 69,685 51,905 60,629 89,789 100,996 127,988 MONTHLY AVERAGES: UNIQUE VISITORS 56,298 vs. 83,790 ↑ 49% 257,068 53.8% 3.2 APR 295,689 362,173 384,601 356,923 341,166 285,314 228,240 263,586 302,525 48.0% 3.5 3.5 46.3% 3.6 52.4% 44.4% 50.4% 48.7% JUNE ©2013 Zehnder Communications, Inc.

Social, which has historically been a midlevel performing traffic source, was highly engaged this month and the most engaged visitors began their journeys on the site either on the Home or the Blue Mountain page. The mid-level performer this month came from Amazon Kindle devices. On these devices, the wake screen ad appears once the user turns on their Kindle. Users can either select the call to action button “Find Your Perfect Beach” which sent visitors to the “What Makes Your Perfect Beach” page, or users can swipe to open their Kindle device home screen. These visitors had an average duration of nearly 2 minutes and 2-3 pages viewed during sessions. The least engaged visitors came from Video and Display - they had bounce rates exceeding 80%, low pages viewed of 1-2 and less than 30 second visit durations.

The x-axis represents the amount of pages visitors viewed, the y-axis represents average duration, and the size of the mark denotes the amount of sessions the ad brought to the site. The color of the mark represents the creative used in the banner and the shape represents the size of the banner. BANNER ANALYSIS ! • The most visits (and some of the most engagement) came from visitors who clicked on a banner for VSW Signature Events. This month, banners promoted the Sandestin Wine Festival and South Walton Beaches Wine & Food Festival. ! • Engagement per creative was somewhat varied this month, but size indicates a trend in relation to engagement of visitors. The most engaged banner visitors came from clicking on a 300x250 (circle) banner, as well as 160x600 (x) and 728x90 (triangle). Those visitors looked at about 1.5 pages during visits. The least and lowest volume of visitors continue to come from 320x50 banners (which are the mobile banners). ©2013 Zehnder Communications, Inc.
