Ask HN: How to you track if newly released features have expected engagement? When launching new features, how do you track them and how do you measure their "success"? Do you use a tracking plan, like Segment Protocols? How do you determine when the feature is done (doesn't need more iteration)? Disclaimer: I'm the founder of a startup that is focused on feature analytics. It's still early days for us, so here to learn about the existing pains in this space. |
If you hear nothing for a new feature, then no one touches it.
If you're blogging platform, that would be writing more blogs, or whatever metric that guides your business growth.
If yes, then roll-it out to 50%, confirm that the metrics are moving to the same direction and by how much. You should be able to answer the question: "users who have this feature do $X more/less/faster/etc.."
You can implement this all in house or use one of the tens of A/B testing SaaS out-there.
