How to Find Inbound Developers in Reo.Dev

When managing developer audiences in Reo.Dev, you may track activity across both first-party assets (your website, docs, product, Slack community, LinkedIn page) and third-party assets (competitor or complementary GitHub repositories).

While integrating competitor & complementary GitHub repos expands your TOFU (Top of Funnel) audience for targeted ads and email campaigns, it can make the Developer Tab cluttered when you need to focus on developers engaging with your owned assets.

To streamline this, we recommend creating an "Inbound Developers" segment—a filtered view of developers who are active on your first-party assets, excluding those only interacting with third-party repositories.


Steps to Create an Inbound Developers Segment

1) Navigate to the Segment Creation Panel

  1. In Reo.Dev, go to Segments panel.

  2. Click Create New Segment.

  3. Select Advance Segment & Choose Developer Segment.

  4. Name the segment "Inbound Developers".

  5. Set Segment Type to Developers.


2) Define Segment Criteria

Use the Advanced Filtering options to include only first-party engagement activities.
