Look at the Audience Profile of users who have been to multiple properties, including both Online (Sites and Content Segments) or Offline sources (Custom Audiences).
Use Case
“While I have multiple properties separated out with the Quantcast tag, I want to be able to look at an Audience Profile for users who have been to multiple properties. I’d want to see what the demographics and interests are for people who have been to example-website.com OR second-example.com.”
For example: As a publisher, I want to combine users who have been to example-website.com or second-example.com to view one combined Measure Profile, instead of looking at the profiles separately and inferring what the combined audience looks like.
Alternatively, you can also use this report to combine online and offline audiences together by combining Sites/Content Segments with Custom Audiences to get the full cross-channel view of an audience.
How to Run the Report
- Go to create a new Audience Planner report
- Select “Part(s) of [Your Network]”
- Search for the Sites, Content Segments, or Custom Audiences you want
- Use any combination of AND/OR/NOT logic to create the exact audience you are looking for (for this guide we will use example-website.com AND/OR second-example.com)
- Name the audience and click Run Report
How to Read the Report
Overview (OR Example)
- Uniques. 5,818,081 uniques have been to either example-website.com OR second-example.com in the last 30 days.
- Page Views. Currently not available. When combining more than one Site/Content Segment/Custom Audience together, we do not have a page view metric - as those only apply to pixel fires on individual Sites or Content Segments.
- Composition. 100% of users who went to either example-website.com or second-example.com over the last 30 days. Because you did not select any filters/audience characteristics, the numbers in the overview are based on 100% on the people who have been to either example-website.com OR second-example.com.
- Index. Not available. Because index is meant to be a comparison against the US Internet, it is not relevant when looking at a property with no filters/audience characteristics.

Audience Planner Profile Reports
The profile tabs in this case are based on the combination of Sites AND/OR/NOT Content Segments you selected. So for example, if you selected example-website.com OR second-example.com, these tabs will give you the Measure profile data for any users who have gone to EITHER example-website.com or second-example.com over the last 30 days.
