Each month they are looking for growth metrics not SEO metrics.
They want to see growth especially derived from these 3 KPIs
Jono when you ask him to quantify SEO and determine an ROI on the channel.
It’s not about fixing broken links, or removing duplicate content or ensuring proper canonicalization, it’s about what the customer sees and experiences and whether they convert on our site or not.
How do we get that customer from point A to point B and more importantly remove any barriers for conversion? How do we deliver them an amazing experience with our brand that will keep them coming back for more?
Increasing your conversion rate, decrease your CACCreating positive brand experiences and seeing repeat customers increases your CLTV
Making your site easy to navigate and and adding content to product pages such as ‘customers who bought this also purchased’ increases your AOVAll of these add revenue and produce a return on the investment
As search marketers, we all know that crawl data helps us answer these questions –
Crawl data can show us whats being indexed, whats not being indexed and why.
Crawl data can show us where we have thin or duplicate content

All of this pushes your competitors down the page into never never land.
NO matter how brilliant your campaigns are structured, how savy your copy or how beautiful your ads may be, if your site isnt optimized for that traffic, its all just a wasted opportunity.
THis graph is based on some research Branded3 did around bounce rate and it’s impact on conversion rates. They found that a site loses roughly 7% of traffic for every one additional second a page takes to load.

The grape is the center of the entire wine production process. From harvesting, to refining, bottling and selling.
Without the grape, you have no wine.
SEO is to your businesses revenue growth as the grape is to a bottle of wine.

Its all about perception – How is the other party perceiving the situation? Your executive team doesn’t care about the nitty gritty of SEO, that’s your job. Your customer doesn’t care about your limited resource or lack of budget, they see broken pages and out of stock notifications and they’ll remember that poor brand experience.
