How can you:

- quickly benchmark website’s search engine optimization?
- estimate your SEO consultant?
- gauge success of in-house search engine optimization employees?
- evaluate your SEO business?

I am about to share with you 2 expert secrets to track search engine optimization progress on the fly.

For a site promoter, data is the single most strong tool. Three reasons why:

1. Data defines you as an search engine optimization.
If you don’t work s lot with data, neither clients nor the industry will take you seriously.

2. Information tells you how well you are performing.
I am all about customer feedback but 1st thing you got to do is root through your own information to find your SEO strengths and weaknesses.

3. To a client, data speaks louder than words.
How can a customer make sure you are actually getting work done? Data. Will a cheesy “How ya doin” phone call do? No. Management needs reports, daily, weekly, monthly… Share your data, and you are halfway there.

If you take data as seriously as I do, and if you mine lots of it, chances are you are already heavily using search engine optimization software. If not, now is a good time to start and set up a powerful data mining and search engine optimization reporting system for your business.

I am all for automation in my business because the amount of sites I optimize today simply doesn’t leave me any other option but to automate.
Plus, with the new generation of breakthrough SEO SEO Reporting tools out there, you can monitor your search engine optimization progress quickly and easy, just like thousands of SEO professionals do across the globe.

Such software have killer email reporting systems built-in. I use them to set up an annual reporting schedule for each customer and for the entire year the tool sends out fresh and personalized optimization reports to my clients as a follow-up and directly to your inbox for a quick review.
Not only are search engine optimization software reports convenient but they are also professionally styled and full of visuals so the design is one less headache I have to think about.

If you wonder what sorts of metrics are important in SEO report, I’ve pinpointed three:

1. Keyword metrics:
- keyword rankings in targeted search engines
- historic rankings
- expected and up-to-date site visits by keyword
- keyword research metrics – competition, search volume etc.

2. Link building data
- Number and quality of client backlinks
- Number and quality of link building partners
- Number and quality of competitor backlinks

3. On site and on page search engine optimization metrics
- Landing page and page element optimization data
- Keyword density analysis for a keyword niche
- Site structure audit data
