Most SEO reports are noise. Here are the 5 metrics that actually tell you if your SEO is working.
The Only 5 Metrics You Need
- Organic impressions. Are more people seeing your site in search?
- Average position. Are you climbing?
- Click-through rate. Are your titles compelling?
- Pages indexed. Is Google finding your content?
- Keywords ranking in top 10. The scoreboard.
Monthly Report Template
One page. These 5 numbers. One paragraph explaining what changed and why. One action item for next month. That is it. Nobody reads 20-page SEO reports.
