Traffic Reporting and Analysis
After site submittal and an appropriate amount of time has elapsed (We usually wait six weeks), it is recommended to generate reports confirming the success of our search engine optimization campaign.
Search engine positioning reports provide a wealth of information, such as your site's position in the major search engines, how you rank on your targeted keyword terms and phrases, which sites rank above and below you, where you've declined in rankings, and so on.
In addition to your search engine positioning reports, Fenn Design can provide traffic log reports. Is your traffic increasing? Are people finding your site with the search terms you targeted? Which of the search engines are referring visitors to your site? If you have a banner marketing program, we can also monitor the performance.
