The plan emphasizes enhancing data quality and user engagement by focusing on metrics like Data Accuracy Rate and Bounce Rate. Data Accuracy ensures that the information collected is reliable, minimizing errors and optimizing decision-making. For instance, maintaining a 95% or higher accuracy rate boosts trust in reports and analyses. On the other hand, a well-managed Bounce Rate between 26% to 40% signifies effective user engagement, pointing to successful content delivery and navigation design.
Ensuring high Data Completeness (90% or higher) means no critical information is omitted, which aids in comprehensive analysis and decision-making, while maintaining low Error Rates (less than 3%) guards against disruptive mistakes in data processing. Lastly, Data Validity guarantees that the data meets predefined standards, further solidifying data reliability and effectiveness.
Top 5 metrics for Data Quality And Engagement
1. Data Accuracy Rate
Percentage of data correctly recorded as intended.
What good looks like for this metric: 95% or higher
How to improve this metric:- Implement validation rules for data entry
- Regularly audit data for errors
- Provide training for staff on data entry best practices
- Use automated tools to correct data inaccuracies
- Ensure regular updates and maintenance of databases
2. Data Completeness Rate
Percentage of data records that are complete and not missing information.
What good looks like for this metric: 90% or higher
How to improve this metric:- Mandate complete entries in forms
- Conduct regular checks for missing data
- Simplify data entry processes
- Provide feedback to team on completeness levels
- Use data profiling tools to identify gaps
3. Bounce Rate
Percentage of visitors who navigate away from a site after viewing only one page.
What good looks like for this metric: 26% to 40%
How to improve this metric:- Improve page load speed
- Enhance user experience with intuitive navigation
- Use engaging and relevant content

- Automate error reporting and correction processes
5. Data Validity
Extent to which data entries meet specific rules, constraints, and requirements.
What good looks like for this metric: 98% adherence to requirements
How to improve this metric:- Define clear and specific data entry rules
- Implement constraints during data collection
- Regularly update validation protocols
- Ensure compliance with data standards
- Utilise software that flags invalid entries
