Track scroll events to measure how engaged your visitors are with your content.

How it works

The PostMetric tracking script automatically tracks scroll events. When a user scrolls on your page, it’s tracked as a goal event.

Automatic tracking

Scroll tracking is enabled by default. No configuration needed! The tracking script automatically fires a scroll goal event when a user first scrolls on a page.

View scroll data

In your dashboard, you can view:
  • Scroll events - Number of scroll events
  • Scroll rate - Percentage of visitors who scroll
  • Scroll by page - Which pages have the highest scroll rates

Custom scroll tracking

You can also track custom scroll milestones:

Create scroll goals

Create goals in your dashboard for scroll milestones:
  1. Go to “Goals” in your dashboard
  2. Click “Create Goal”
  3. Create goals for:
    • scroll_25 - 25% scroll depth
    • scroll_50 - 50% scroll depth
    • scroll_75 - 75% scroll depth
    • scroll_100 - 100% scroll depth

Analyze scroll data

Use scroll data to:
  • Measure engagement - See which pages keep users engaged
  • Optimize content - Identify pages with low scroll rates
  • A/B test - Test different content layouts
  • Improve UX - Understand user reading patterns
