MEASURING SEO RESULTS AND REPORTING

Organic Traffic Bar an Line Graph

SEO is an all-encompassing, long-term, holistic approach, built around the consistent implementation of industry best practices and well-researched strategies.  We cannot guarantee a site will jump to the top of the search results immediately.


We define a successful ongoing campaign as having month-over-month improvements in:

  • Keyword Rankings
  • Organic Traffic
  • Organic User Metrics
  • Organic Visibility

Different tactics impact different metrics. Some tactics might directly impact rankings while other focus more on user flow through the website and other user signals. Each month, the strategist will evaluate the site’s needs and employ tactics accordingly. 

In addition to keyword ranking information available in the customer dashboard, custom SEO clients receive a link to more advanced reporting.


The custom reporting is handled through Google Data Studio, and includes:


Google Analytics Data

  • Sessions, sources & channels, landing pages, exit pages, average session duration, average pages per session, bounce rate, and top cities.

Google Search Console Data

  • Impressions, clicks, site CTR, queries, and landing pages.

Performance & Strategy

  • Forecasted strategies, most recently implemented strategies, and a running list of strategies completed throughout the campaign’s lifetime.
