The top brand awareness metrics are online brand mentions, social media engagement data, earned media coverage, share of voice, branded search volume data, survey data, leads and sales, and website and blog traffic, shares, and backlinks.&nbsp;<br>&nbsp;<br>Now, let\u2019s get into the metrics themselves.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><ol start=\"1\"><strong>1.

A combination of brand monitoring and social listening, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cision.com\/resources\/articles\/complete-guide-to-brand-mentions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">brand mentions<\/a> offers a measure of how often your company, products or services are being talked about online within online forums and social media platforms.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When tracking, you want to consider both <strong>direct<\/strong> (i.e., explicit references to your brand name) and <strong>indirect <\/strong>(i.e., references to your brand or its product\/solution without mentioning it by name) mentions. Indirect brand mentions include misspellings of your brand name, references to products only (i.e., \u201cMacbook\u201d without \u201cApple\u201d), and use of taglines or slogans without your brand name.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How to Track Brand Mentions Online<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>To track brand mentions, we recommend the one-two punch of a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.capterra.com\/social-listening-tools-software\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">good social listening tool<\/a> plus a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.g2.com\/categories\/media-monitoring\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">media monitoring <\/a>solution.

These can be pooled together manually for deeper reporting and analysis.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, if you are hoping to track deeper metrics like sentiment and more easily create dashboards or better analyze community reactions, a social media listening tool is invaluable.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><ol start=\"3\"><strong>3. Earned Media Coverage<\/strong><\/ol><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Earned media coverage looks at the promotion of your brand through external, unpaid channels.

SEO solutions like Semrush, <a href=\"https:\/\/ahrefs.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Ahrefs<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/moz.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Moz<\/a> can also help you navigate the data around search volume, while social listening tools can further complement reporting.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Related Read \u2013 <\/em><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pancommunications.com\/insights\/maximize-revenue-by-combining-seo-and-ppc\/\"><strong><em>Integrating SEO and PPC to Boost B2B Revenue<\/em><\/strong><\/a>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><ol start=\"6\"><strong>6.

After all, if people are signing up to hear more from your brand or purchasing your products and services, it can only mean they\u2019re aware you exist and do good work.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How to Track These KPIs<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcmag.com\/picks\/the-best-crm-software\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Customer relationship management (CRM) solutions<\/a> are going to be the best place to pull KPIs related to leads and sales, as well as keep an eye on the customer journey from the top of the funnel to the bottom. If your CRM is separate from your email marketing platform, make sure the two are integrated so you can be confident the numbers are accurate. An integrated CRM also ensures that you and your teams can track contacts across platforms, nurture budding relationships through every stage of the customer journey, and easily identify contacts who are ready for sales outreach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><ol start=\"7\"><strong>7.

As any smart marketer knows, surveys are an incredible opportunity to gain unfiltered insight straight from your customers.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In an era of all-digital everything, the opportunities for how and where to conduct brand awareness surveys are endless \u2014 via email, SMS, social media, and even e-commerce point of sale (POS). Simple Google Forms can handle brand awareness surveys, or you can opt to integrate via your CRM or tools like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.surveymonkey.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">SurveyMonkey<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.typeform.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Typeform<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Though multiple channels are available, to truly judge awareness, you will likely want to target a questionnaire randomly to best gauge true brand recall. (Pro tip: Seek out a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pancommunications.com\/services\/strategy-planning\/\">brand strategy agency<\/a> for help acquiring a deep knowledge of your target audience via surveys and research.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Brand Awareness Survey Questions<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s important to customize a brand awareness survey so that it best fits the needs and goals of your company.

Website Traffic<\/strong><\/ol><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the simplest and most tracked brand awareness metrics, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wix.com\/encyclopedia\/definition\/website-traffic\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">website traffic<\/a> measures the number of visits to your website. Whether you have one page or 500, it\u2019s important to keep track of brand interest via website traffic.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In fact, the very basis of digital marketing relies on the simple measurement of website traffic and its rate of conversion. Website traffic is often also tied to other brand awareness campaign efforts, like organic social media or paid digital ads.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Simply put, high traffic breads brand familiarity.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How to Track These Metrics<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Most likely, you\u2019ll want to track this data using Google Analytics, but tools like <a href=\"https:\/\/amplitude.com\/get-started\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Amplitude<\/a> and other Google alternatives are also available. No matter which solution you use, make sure you follow <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/UTM_parameters?trk=article-ssr-frontend-pulse_little-text-block\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">UTM tracking parameters<\/a> and are tagging all campaigns accordingly. Doing so will ensure you can trace actions to specific campaigns and understand attribution.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><ol start=\"9\"><strong>9. Blog Traffic and Shares<\/strong><\/ol><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pancommunications.com\/insights\/what-is-content-marketing_\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Content marketing<\/a> efforts, like blogging, are huge drivers of brand awareness \u2014 and that\u2019s likely why you create read-worthy resources in the first place. If you are blogging (or if you have a resource center with other strategic storytelling-forward content such as case studies or white papers), then blog data offers invaluable metrics.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Beyond simple traffic to blog articles, make sure you also capture social media shares as a measure of how your audience views the quality of your content. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Note:<\/strong> If you want to take tracking a step further, scroll depth and time on page can also help paint a picture of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pancommunications.com\/insights\/9-tips-for-creating-great-content\/\">content quality<\/a>.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How to Measure Blog Traffic and Shares<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Google Analytics should be your go-to for blog traffic data. In addition to page views, use it to capture referral traffic from social media as a broad measure of shares. If you hope to track shares directly, make sure you\u2019re labeling all social media posts accurately either within the tools you\u2019re using or via a manual process. From there, you can more easily narrow down and get a view of blog shares compared to other content types.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pancommunications.com\/insights\/content-marketing-b2b-repackage-repurpose-reoptimize\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"243\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pancommunications.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/20240709_PAN_BlogGraphic_7-1024x243.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23357\" style=\"width:650px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pancommunications.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/20240709_PAN_BlogGraphic_7-1024x243.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.pancommunications.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/20240709_PAN_BlogGraphic_7-300x71.png 300w, https:\/\/www.pancommunications.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/20240709_PAN_BlogGraphic_7-768x182.png 768w, https:\/\/www.pancommunications.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/20240709_PAN_BlogGraphic_7-1536x365.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.pancommunications.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/20240709_PAN_BlogGraphic_7-2048x486.png 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><ol start=\"10\"><strong>10.

Not to be confused with broad referral traffic, <a href=\"https:\/\/moz.com\/learn\/seo\/backlinks\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">backlinks<\/a> help you understand how often visitors are arriving at your website through external links from other sites.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This type of referral is so valuable because it has the added benefit of boosting your <a href=\"https:\/\/moz.com\/learn\/seo\/domain-authority\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">domain authority<\/a> and search engine rankings.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How to Track Backlinks<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>An SEO tool, like Moz or Semrush, is best used for measuring brand awareness from backlinks.
