Local Market Reporting

comScore Media Metrix Local Market Reporting represents a major advance in the market-specific measurement of Internet usage. comScore Media Metrix is the only system to report usage in 101 markets.

The local markets reported through comScore Media Metrix represent more than 90 percent of all U.S. Internet activity, across nearly three times as many markets as are offered by competitive services. In addition, comScore offers the only local market audience measurement tool to track Internet use across home, work and university locations, in contrast to other services that track home usage only. Like all comScore Media Metrix services, Local Market Reporting is founded upon random recruitment methodologies.

With consumers increasing their reliance on the Internet as a source of local information - including news, directory and movie listings, maps and local search offerings - the ability to measure Web site traffic and demographics at the local level is critical. comScore Media Metrix Local Market Reporting delivers previously unavailable insight to aid newspapers, city guides, directories and advertisers in quantifying the size and value of local audiences, gauging cross-visiting habits and tracking in-market usage versus competitive sites.

Key Benefits of Local Market Reporting Include:
  • Fully integrated with industry-leading comScore Media Metrix 2.0 audience measurement system and available through the easy to use MyMetrix™ Web interface for convenient, efficient analysis
  • Reports market-level detail for users driving more than 90 percent of U.S. Internet activity across 101 local markets, compared to just 35 markets available through competitive services
  • Tracks thousands of sites across 90+ categories and sub-categories using the Media Metrix Client Focus Dictionary
  • Local reporting of comScore's unique Buying Power Index (BPI), which transcends measurement of traffic alone to value audiences based on actual online dollar spending
  • The only tracking of Internet usage at all locations (home/work/university) compared to home usage only for competitive services
