Seo

How do I know if website changes improved SEO?

Compare the page's clicks, impressions, CTR, and average position before and after the change, using the same query or page group when possible.

A more useful answer

Use the same date range length on both sides of the publish date. A weekend or holiday can fake a drop.

Also watch form submissions from that page. A better ranking that creates no requests is not a win.

What to do next

  • 01Save baseline metrics before publishing.
  • 02Wait for enough Search Console data after the update.
  • 03Judge by trend and conversions, not one-day movement.
