If you're investing in organic traffic, you need a way to measure whether those efforts are actually driving business results. ThoughtMetric makes that easy with clear visibility into what’s working and where to improve. Here's how to get started.
First, head over to the Channel section in the left-side navigation menu of ThoughtMetric. Then select Organic Search.
This is your hub for all things related to how people are finding your site through search engines. It’s where you’ll begin to understand how your SEO efforts translate into revenue and orders.
Step 2: Check the Metrics
Once you land in the Organic Search section, you’ll see two essential numbers that tell a powerful story:
-
Total Sales – The revenue generated directly from organic search
-
Number of Orders – How many purchases originated from organic traffic
These two metrics give you a quick snapshot of your SEO's bottom-line impact.
Step 3: Uncover Top-Performing Content with Landing Page Performance
Next, scroll to the Landing Page Performance section. This view shows which pages users are landing on from search engines and how those pages are performing.
Whether you have a blog, a product catalog, or testimonial pages, this report helps you see:
- Which pages are driving the most traffic
- Which pages are converting that traffic into sales
This data is invaluable. It acts like a compass for your content strategy. If certain pages consistently drive traffic and revenue, you’ll know where to focus future content creation. You can double down on what resonates and spot opportunities for improvement.
