Separate observed results from assumptions. Check the actual page, relevant account data and the business outcome being measured. Compare suitable periods and note other changes that may affect interpretation. Where evidence is unavailable, record the gap instead of inventing a volume, ranking or conversion figure.<\/p>\n<h3>A common mistake to avoid<\/h3>\n<p>Avoid confusing visibility with a qualified business result. More pages, links or impressions do not by themselves establish useful growth.
