Real Time Home Page Analysis is a Job Requirement

March 9th, 2010 by Tom St John

I have a bunch of searches set up to track the evolution of online news job postings. In particular I am looking for job postings that mention the words “real time”, “monitor site traffic”, “story placement”, “story trends” and other word combinations that capture the convergence of editor, web producer and stats geek.

Similar to the portadista job role I posted and reviewed last year, this one for a site manager at the TheStreet.com just popped up. I have highlighted the interesting chunk.

It is good to see big media sites starting to realize the value of using data and real time metrics to provide content decision support. We are big believers of this growing trend, which is why we are building a business around delivering real time analysis and insight to online news publishers via our service publishflow™.
