Daily SEO Fix: SEO Reporting — More Specific Use Cases

When rolling out an SEO strategy, an important step is to establish goals you’re able to report on regularly. With Custom Reports in Moz Pro, you have the ability to set up automatic reports to send to key stakeholders regarding the goals you are seeking to achieve. In the previous Daily Fix edition we talked through the basics of creating reports. This time, we’ll dive deeper into some specific use cases that may help you and your team better relay critical information regarding your SEO goals and objectives.

Use Case: Rankings Opportunities

Staying on top of rankings opportunities and how your site stacks up against your competitor may be a critical piece in your SEO strategic puzzle.

In this video, Varad will walk through how you can further supplement the existing Rankings Opportunities template. This report will offer ongoing insight into possible opportunities to tackle next.

Use Case: Competitive Analysis

Setting up a competitive analysis report can help you answer questions from clients and team members regarding how they are performing next to their competitors. This is a common question when working in SEO and having a report ready to go can help set you up for success!

In this next video, Meghan will go over the Custom Report template for competitive analysis and how you can further segment data to bolster your reporting efforts.

Use Case: Site Audit

If you are in charge of the technical SEO for your site, or your client’s site, you will likely be asked to regularly report on what issues you’ve resolved and what you’re currently working on. Moz’s Custom Report templates offer a variety of options for Site Audit reports which can help you stay on top of issues and better communicate with interested parties. You can even add in data from the Performance Metrics part of Site Crawl which reports on a tracked site’s Core Web Vitals performance.

Emilie will go over the different options available for Site Audit reports and how to add in that Core Web Vitals data.

Use Case: Traffic Reporting

If increasing organic traffic to your site or to a specific page on your site is one of your goals, it can be helpful to have a report set up to regularly send you updates in a digestible format. With Google Analytics connected to your Moz Pro Campaign, you can create traffic-related reports in the Custom Reports section.

In this next video, Christy will go over which modules you can add to your report so you’re able to keep tabs on organic traffic right alongside your other Campaign data.

How to Identify and Refresh Outdated Content

When someone regularly adds new content to their sites, they face an inevitable question: What happens to my older articles? The way blogging works is really unfair to your past work: It gets buried in archives, losing traffic and relevance. Is there a way to keep your content always up-to-date? Yes, but first let’s discuss the why. Why update your content? Keeping your content fresh and updated is more than overcoming the unfairness of your past work fading away. It's actually a legit marketing tactic that saves money and makes your users’ on-site experience smoother. So let’s dive into why updating old content is so important: 1. User experience The most obvious reason is that you want each of your site pages to be an effective entry landing page: Outdated content and broken links will likely result in bounces. These are lost leads and clients. 2. Search engine optimization When it comes to SEO, content updates offer quite a few advantages: Maintaining more consisten...

How Your Local Business Can Be a Helper

Posted by MiriamEllis “When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, ‘Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.’ To this day, especially in times of disaster, I remember my mother's words, and I am always comforted by realizing that there are still so many helpers — so many caring people in this world.” — Fred Rogers This quote is one I find myself turning to frequently these days as a local SEO. It calls to mind my irreplaceable neighborhood grocer. On my last essential run to their store, they not only shared a stashed 4-pack of bath tissue with me, but also stocked their market with local distillery-produced hand sanitizer which I was warned will reek of bourbon, but will get the job done. When times are hard, finding helpers comes as such a relief. Even the smallest acts that a local business does to support physical and mental health can be events customers remember for years to come. While none of us gets ...

How to Create a Useful and Well-Optimized FAQ Page

Posted by AnnSmarty The golden rule of marketing has always been: Don’t leave your customer wondering, or you’ll lose them. This rule also applies very well to SEO: Unless Google can find an answer — and quickly — they’ll pick and feature your competitor. One way to make sure that doesn’t happen is having a well set-up, well-optimized FAQ page. Your FAQ is the key to providing your customers and search engines with all the answers they might need about your brand. Why create an FAQ page? Decrease your customer support team’s workload. If you do it right, your FAQ page will be the first point of contact for your potential customers — before they need to contact you directly. Shorten your customers’ buying journeys. If your site users can find all the answers without having to hear back from your team, they’ll buy right away. Build trust signals. Covering your return policies, shipping processes, and being transparent with your site users will encourage them to put more trust into...
