X-ray vision for your Outbrain advertising

Outbrain will show you click volumes, engagement rates, and conversions across your native content recommendation campaigns on premium publisher sites.

But like all native platforms, Outbrain’s reporting has a blind spot: it can’t tell you whether those content discovery clicks turned into real dollars in your payment processor. The journey from “recommended article” to “paying customer” remains invisible in their dashboard.

SegMetrics’ Outbrain Advertising Dashboard fills this gap. Get all your critical ad metrics, including verified financials, with lifetime attribution. (Say goodbye to invisible conversions!)

Everything you need, in one clean dashboard.

Deep Dive

Inside the Outbrain Advertising Dashboard Template

Why this Dashboard

Why use the Outbrain Advertising Dashboard?

Outbrain places your content as native recommendations on premium publisher sites, driving discovery-based traffic at scale. But native advertising attribution is notoriously difficult — Outbrain’s dashboard shows clicks and engagement, not whether those readers became paying customers.

SegMetrics’ Outbrain Advertising Dashboard connects your content recommendation spend to actual revenue, so you can measure the real business value of native content discovery.

Who it's for

This dashboard is perfect for:

  • Content marketers running Outbrain native campaigns to drive qualified traffic at scale
  • Performance marketers who need to prove that content recommendation clicks convert to revenue
  • Agencies comparing Outbrain’s performance against other channels with apples-to-apples revenue data
  • Anyone investing in native content discovery who needs to separate quality traffic from vanity clicks

“It’s not enough for us to just track our ads right after the first click because someone may convert 6 months later. SegMetrics has made a huge difference in our ability to track what we are actually getting from our paid ads. We can even track the impact individual salespeople are having during the sales process.”
