  • What metrics are pulled onto SEO reports.

  • What does each metric mean?

  • What is the source for each metric?

  • How to provide insight that is useful to the customer.

Report Calls

Account Managers (AMs) are responsible for reviewing SEO reports with customers. However, as SEO Specialists, it is important to understand the data we report on. There might be instances where you will need to join a call with a client to discuss the report.

By learning about the reporting process, you can dive deeper into a customer’s campaign in order to provide better insight and analysis.

Creating Reports and Establishing Value

  • Learn how and why we report on Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to customers:

    • Read Chapter 1: Moz: Reporting 101

      • Learning to think of SEO reports as “telling a story” about SEO campaign performance.

      • Reporting on SEO data should be S.M.A.R.T.


What are Essential Metrics to Report On?

  • Learn how to compile the most useful data to deliver to customers:


NinjaCat

NinjaCat is our data management for compiling SEO performance data into a report to send to clients. It pulls the data from three different areas; the Work Done Import tab, DS Import tab, and the Client Tracker.

NinjaCat Access

You will need login credentials to access the accounts within NinjaCat.

NinjaCat Reporting

Our Juniper team is largely responsible for generating the reports within NinjaCat. However, familiarizing yourself with the format of the report will help you gain an understanding of why we format the Work Done Import tab the way we do.

Specifically, we need to ensure that the ID numbers for both the client sheet and SEOmonitor account for each client are there and accurate.

SOPs

The following Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and meetings help aid your understanding of keyword research from internal documentation and virtual trainings.

Reporting with Work Done Import Tab

Adding all our completed monthly tasks for a client in the Work Done Import (WDI) tab ensures all the data is included in the report. However, you must also ensure the information in the WDI tab is formatted correctly so that when it is pulled onto the report, it is presentable, accurate, and organized.

Rows must be created to include all aspects of our monthly tasks. This includes rows for:

  • On-Site Optimization focus (what page(s) you worked on).

WDI Tab Example:

Reporting

Report Call Script

When Account Managers perform a report call with a client, they use a Report Call Script to more effectively communicate results. This provides more meaningful insight for clients, which can lead to more productive conversations.

While Account Managers handle the majority of contact with clients, there are instances when the SEO rep will need to join a report call to talk about the report. For these cases, it is important to understand the format and data of the reports. Please review the Report Call Script from the Client Solutions (CS) resources to aid your understanding about reporting calls:

5.0 Report Differences
