These key terms will then be added to our SEO reporting tool – giving you live daily updates on each keyword and its progress (You will receive access to this dashboard).Ā

How Can I Measure The Success of my SEO Campaign?
What is the Difference Between Organic & Paid Search Results?
Organic search results are those that appear naturally in the SERPs due to their relevance to the userās query. Whereas, paid search results are those that appear after a company has paid to have its website advertised.
