Do people use the social media links on the site? #53

Closed garethrees closed 8 years ago

garethrees commented 8 years ago

Q: Do people use the social media links on the site?

Or do they just get in the way? Maybe even if they're not used, it prompts people to manually share on social media?

[Explain how you will measure this]

Measure Rates of link usage in GA

[What do we need to do to be able to take the measurements?]

"Informs how much effort we make on improving links out to social media

GA docs suggest that this is event tracking, much like the widget code ticket"
