You may be surprised to find out that traffic isn't the #1 metric I look at when trying to determine how a client's SEO program is working. 

Yes, traffic is important to SEO growth, as are SEO keyword rankings, but there are other metrics that I believe are more important when you're an entrepreneur who's looking to grow and scale your business. 

Find out what else you should be checking and tracking in this week's podcast episode.
