🚀 New Scrolling Report: See How Far Your Readers Really Go

David -

Why the Scrolling Report Matters

Have you ever wondered how far your readers actually scroll through your posts? With the brand-new Scrolling Report, now you’ll know.

Until now, you could track how many views a post had. But now, you can go deeper: are visitors reading the intro only? Do they make it halfway? Or all the way to the end?

This insight helps you:

  • Fine-tune your content’s structure and length 📝
  • Place calls-to-action (CTAs) where people actually see them
  • Identify drop-off points
  • Improve engagement and boost conversions

It’s a natural next step after the Click Report—moving from knowing what happens to understanding how it happens.

What You’ll See in the Scrolling Report

The Scrolling Report includes:

  • 📉 Average scroll percentage — how much of the post readers go through on average
  • ⏱️ Segmented breakdown — see what % of users reach 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% for example.
  • 🌍 By language and country — compare how reading behavior differs between audiences (e.g., 🇺🇸 vs 🇩🇪, English vs Spanish)
  • 📱 By device type — see if people on mobile scroll more or less than on desktop or tablet
  • 🔍 Post-by-post comparison — spot which content retains attention best
  • 📅 Trends over time — find patterns like long reads on weekends or drop-offs after a redesign

All wrapped in the same clean, friendly interface you're used to in Ghostboard: visual, intuitive, and fast.

4 Key Benefits You Can’t Ignore 💡

1. Spot Drop-Off Points

If readers quit just when a new section starts, the report will show you. You can then rework that part or move important info higher up.

2. Optimize CTAs and Buttons

If your CTA is at 75%, but most readers leave by 50%, it's not working. Use the data to reposition strategically.

3. Improve Reading Experience

Based on scroll depth, you can decide whether to add summaries, images, or subheadings to keep readers moving.

4. Trustworthy, Actionable Insight

Pageviews alone don't tell you if your content works. Scrolling shows how much they actually read—a more reliable success metric.
