We\u2019ve mentioned many times that SEO is a long-term activity. It usually takes several weeks or months before we start to see the results of our efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But that doesn\u2019t mean you should just sit back and wait. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Absolutely not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During that time, we can detect signals that will tell us if we\u2019re heading in the right direction<\/strong> or if, on the contrary, we need to make some adjustments to our strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And to see those signals, we need to be able to measure the impact of everything we\u2019re doing<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Want to know how I measure SEO?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this post, I’ll talk about the so-called SEO metrics and show you which ones, in my opinion, are the most important SEO metrics for efficiently tracking<\/strong> your web project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let’s get started!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What are SEO metrics?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

SEO metrics are indicators used to evaluate and measure the performance of a website<\/strong>, especially concerning its positioning within search engines and the effects derived from it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Therefore, they provide objective information about the direction your web project is taking and are a fundamental basis for decision-making within any SEO strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The main SEO metrics I review daily<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There are a wide variety of SEO parameters that allow you to assess different aspects of your website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are no better or worse metrics; the use of one or another will depend on the objectives you want to achieve within your business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next, I\u2019m going to show you the 7 metrics I usually pay the most attention to<\/strong> and that best allow me to measure the effectiveness of my actions as an SEO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Organic Traffic<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We start with the metric I consider the most important of all: the visits our website receives from Google<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the end of the day, we are measuring the results of our work as SEOs, whose goal is none other than to improve our positions in search engines so that users end up reaching our website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Therefore, the value of organic traffic and its evolution over time will tell us if we are achieving our goal or if, on the contrary, we need to rethink some aspects of our SEO strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to measure a Website’s Organic Traffic?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

There are several software applications that provide information about a website’s traffic, but if you want the most accurate and reliable data, it’s best to always go to the source, that is, Google.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google Search Console (GSC) is the essential tool<\/strong> that every SEO should be familiar with. In its “Performance” section, it shows us real data about the organic traffic of our domain.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"SEO<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

You will see a graph with the total clicks your website has received each day, as well as a table with the queries, URLs, countries, or devices that generated those clicks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is very valuable information that you can filter and export to a spreadsheet for more detailed analysis if you wish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why is this SEO metric important?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Organic traffic is an objective indicator of how relevant our content is to users. However, when analyzing this metric, you can’t just focus on its overall value; you need to pay attention to the details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Filters by keywords, URLs, or countries are the ones that will truly indicate whether your visits reflect your actions as an SEO and have the potential to convert into sales or if, on the contrary, Google is telling you that you need to change your strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
