SEO Reporting

How to report on SEO


Reporting is about telling
the story of what
happened on your website
to influence what you’re
going to do next.
Start by setting SMART goals and
establishing KPIs for your website.
SEO is an iterative process.

You can't go after everything all at once.


Don't get carried away
and over-optimize.

If you change too many things at once,


it could adversely affect your rank.
How do you monitor results?

• Use Google Search Console to check your search performance


and rank for a keyword or page.
• Use Google Analytics to track organic traffic to a page.
Connect your website to
Google Search Console.

This will give you great


insights into organic
traffic, as well as metrics
relating to your site,
indexation of pages,
errors, etc.
Always track everything you
do and tie it to a goal.
Let’s take an example of a fictional company, The Pet Box, which sells a subscription
box service for pet owners.
Goal: Increase sales by 20%
over the next six months.
To reach this goal, the marketing team
decided on a few steps:
• Optimized the product page using on-page SEO best practices.
• Wrote a series of blog posts teaching their audience about
different types of pet food.
• Made a pillar page on how to find the right pet food.
The metrics they'll track to determine if they're
on the path to reaching their goals are:

• Organic traffic to the product page, pillar page, and related


blog posts
• Conversions
• Bounce rate
• Sales made from these pages
Goal: Increase monthly page
visits by 50% and boost position
above #5.
The marketing team’s strategy to reach this
goal is:
• Optimize the product page for search intent.
• Boost page authority by getting backlinks from reputable pet
care blogs and pet food companies.
The metrics they’ll track to see if they're
meeting their goal are:

• Organic traffic to the product page


• Its position in SERPs
• Number of search impressions
• Backlinks acquired
