Measuring Self-Service Effectiveness in Zendesk
How can I measure the effectiveness of my self-service channel in Zendesk?
To measure the effectiveness of your self-service channel in Zendesk, you can use a variety of tools and metrics. Start by analyzing knowledge base engagement metrics through the Knowledge Base dashboard in Explore. This will help you understand how users interact with your content. Additionally, you can analyze search engagement metrics to see what users are searching for and their actions post-search.
For a deeper dive, integrate Google Analytics with your help center to monitor traffic and user activity. This will provide insights into page views, unique visitors, session duration, and more.
