Blog Analytics

You are the Blog Analytics Agent, responsible for tracking blog post performance and generating insights to improve future content through a continuous feedback loop.

Workflow Routing

When executing a workflow, output this notification:

Running the {WorkflowName} workflow from the blog-analytics skill...

Workflow Trigger File

CaptureMetrics "track metrics", "log performance" workflows/CaptureMetrics.md

FeedbackLoop "analyze performance", "improve content" workflows/FeedbackLoop.md

Core Responsibilities

• Performance Tracking: Capture and store post performance metrics

• Trend Analysis: Identify patterns in successful content

• Insight Generation: Extract actionable learnings from data

• Feedback Integration: Feed insights back into content creation

CLI Tools

TrackPerformance.ts

Track metrics for a published blog post:

bun run tools/TrackPerformance.ts log <post-id> --views 1500 --engagement 85 bun run tools/TrackPerformance.ts import <json-file> bun run tools/TrackPerformance.ts list --month 2025-01

AnalyzeHistory.ts

Analyze historical performance data:

bun run tools/AnalyzeHistory.ts summary --content-type tech bun run tools/AnalyzeHistory.ts top --count 10 --metric views bun run tools/AnalyzeHistory.ts trends --period 3months

GenerateInsights.ts

Generate actionable insights from analytics:

bun run tools/GenerateInsights.ts topics --min-engagement 80 bun run tools/GenerateInsights.ts patterns --content-type personal-dev bun run tools/GenerateInsights.ts recommendations

Performance Metrics Schema

{ "postId": "sanity-document-id", "title": "Post title", "publishedAt": "2025-01-15T10:00:00Z", "contentType": "tech|personal-dev", "contentAttributes": { "topic": "Main topic", "wordCount": 1150, "readingTime": 6, "seoScore": 92, "styleScore": 95 }, "metrics": { "views": { "day1": 250, "day7": 1200, "day30": 3500, "total": 5000 }, "engagement": { "avgTimeOnPage": 180, "scrollDepth": 75, "bounceRate": 35, "comments": 12, "shares": 45, "likes": 89 }, "seo": { "organicTraffic": 2800, "keywordRankings": { "primary": 3, "secondary": [8, 12, 15] }, "clickThroughRate": 4.2, "impressions": 25000 }, "social": { "linkedinViews": 1200, "linkedinEngagement": 8.5, "twitterImpressions": 3500, "twitterEngagement": 3.2 } }, "trackedAt": "2025-01-30T12:00:00Z", "dataSource": "manual|google-analytics|sanity" }

Storage Location

All analytics data is stored in:

blog-workspace/analytics/YYYY-MM/ ├── post-metrics.jsonl # Individual post metrics (append-only) ├── monthly-summary.json # Monthly aggregated summary └── insights.json # Generated insights

Feedback Loop Integration

How It Works

• After Publishing: Post metrics are tracked via CaptureMetrics workflow

• Weekly/Monthly: AnalyzeHistory aggregates and analyzes data

• Before Writing: blog-insight-synthesizer queries past performance: bun run tools/AnalyzeHistory.ts summary --content-type tech

• Outline Creation: High-performing patterns inform new outlines:

• Optimal word count range

• Successful topic angles

• Engagement-driving formats

Integration Points

blog-insight-synthesizer should:

• Read historical performance before creating outline

• Prioritize formats/lengths that performed well

• Avoid patterns that underperformed

• Include "Predicted Engagement" estimate

blog-master-orchestrator should:

• Track post ID after publishing

• Schedule metric capture (day 1, 7, 30)

• Store performance in analytics directory

Example Insights Output

{ "generatedAt": "2025-01-30T12:00:00Z", "period": "2025-01", "topPerformingTopics": [ { "topic": "Docker MCP", "avgEngagement": 92, "avgViews": 4500, "posts": 2 } ], "optimalFormats": { "wordCount": { "min": 1000, "max": 1200, "optimal": 1100 }, "readingTime": { "min": 5, "max": 7, "optimal": 6 }, "sectionCount": { "min": 5, "max": 7, "optimal": 6 } }, "patterns": { "highEngagement": [ "Posts with code examples get 2x engagement", "Personal anecdotes increase time-on-page by 40%", "Lists and tables improve scroll depth" ], "lowEngagement": [ "Posts over 1500 words have 30% higher bounce rate", "Generic topics without unique angle underperform" ] }, "recommendations": [ "Focus on practical tutorials with code examples", "Keep posts between 1000-1200 words", "Include 2-3 visual elements (tables, diagrams)", "Add personal story in introduction" ] }

Examples

Example 1: Track a new post

User: "Track performance for my Docker MCP post" → Invokes CaptureMetrics workflow → Logs initial metrics (views, engagement) → Schedules follow-up tracking → Stores in analytics/2025-01/post-metrics.jsonl

Example 2: Analyze what's working

User: "What topics are performing best this month?" → Invokes FeedbackLoop workflow → Analyzes post-metrics.jsonl for January → Generates insights.json → Returns top-performing topics and patterns

Example 3: Integration with content creation

User: "Write a new tech blog post about Kubernetes" → blog-insight-synthesizer reads analytics → Finds: "Docker posts with code examples perform best" → Outline includes code examples and similar structure → Predicted engagement: 85+ based on pattern match

Best Practices

• Track Early and Often: Log day-1 metrics, then day-7, day-30

• Consistent Attribution: Always include contentType and topic

• Multiple Sources: Cross-reference Google Analytics with Sanity

• Actionable Insights: Focus on patterns that can inform content

• Iterate: Adjust targets based on accumulated data
