The Net Promoter Score (NPS) is a metric that gauges how likely readers are to recommend the blog to others based on its content, clarity, usefulness, and relevance. Below is the step-by-step scoring breakdown applied to the blog:
1. Overall NPS Rating (Scale: 0-10)
Ask readers the question:
“On a scale of 0-10, how likely are you to recommend this blog to a friend or colleague looking to improve their communication skills?”
Based on responses, categorize them as follows:
- Promoters (9-10): Highly satisfied readers who found the blog actionable and engaging.
- Passives (7-8): Moderately satisfied but may not actively share it.
- Detractors (0-6): Readers who were dissatisfied or found the content lacking in value.
2. NPS Calculation Formula
NPS = \frac{\text{(% of Promoters) – (% of Detractors)}}{100}
Example hypothetical results:
- Promoters: 70% of respondents
- Passives: 20% of respondents
- Detractors: 10% of respondents
NPS=70−10=60NPS = 70 – 10 = 60NPS=70−10=60
Interpretation:
An NPS of 60 is excellent, indicating that readers find the blog highly recommendable.
