Metrics

In this report, we show keyword metrics for all of your tracked keywords.

Use the filters to refine the list and focus on the keywords that matter to you.

The "Metrics" report can act as a "shortcut" to see the important keyword metrics at a glance.

See the “Parent Topic” for your tracked keywords

Parent Topic determines if you can rank for your target keyword while targeting a more general topic instead.

To identify the Parent Topic, we take the #1 ranking page for your keyword and find the query sending the most search traffic to that page.

For example, we’re targeting the keyword “alternative search engines.” However, the Parent Topic tells us that we could rank for both “search engines,” and “alternative search engines,” with the same page.

In this case, it might be worth optimizing for the Parent Topic, then adding the keyword to Rank Tracker.
