See your real readers

The “view” and “visitor” counts provided by services like Google Analytics aren’t helpful for written content.

Parable’s “real read” graph shows you how many readers are actually completing your posts each day, and our real read conversion score will give you a measure to improve.

Improve your posts

It can be difficult to understand why your posts aren’t getting as much traction as you’d expected.

Parable provides read depth, read time, reader focus and reader browser information for every visit to your blog so you can diagnose, edit, and improve your writing.

Growth icon

Measure your growth

What you can’t measure you can’t improve, but measuring the success of your posts can be tricky.

Parable automatically keeps track of key performance measures for all your posts individually, so you can identify your most compelling writing and curate your blog.

Rocket icon

Keep on getting better

If half your visitors read your posts to completion, is that bad, good, or great?

Parable lets you compare the performance of individual posts to others from your sites so you can see how your posts hold up and understand where there’s room for improvement.
