Inside Medialister

No better place than a changelog to confess our struggle to find the best metrics for PR activities done on Medialister by our clients. One of things we are exploring is measuring the attention. As a Product Lead, I oppose this metric as too vague to be a decisive factor and which even could be backlashed as baloney. Alexander, the founder, fights me pushing the points of its scientific grounding and no proper alternatives. It might be biased from any side, so as a good litmus test, we've agreed to check what the community thinks before adding it to the product.

For now, no harm in learning: https://medialister.com/blog/attention-is-a-critical-component-of-advertising-for-long-term-impact
