White Labeling
- Embed the dashboard on your own website
- Setup a "mobile app"
- You can also embed client logos into their client marketing dashboards by utilizing our custom text box widgets with the WYSIWIG editor
Rank Tracker Settings
- Use URL scope to determine which pages on a site are eligible to be reported in the rankings module
- This one is CRITICAL! You can decide whether you want positions in the Google 3-pack/map pack/local pack to be included in your normal organic rankings. They ARE included by default! We recommend leaving them on, but this is totally your preference.
- Don't forget to connect your Google My Business pages for the most accurate Google Local and Google Mobile rankings! Connect as many as you like (no extra charge) for rank tracking purpose
- SERP tracking is not an exact science, and many times rankings checked on two different rank trackers - or checked via a standard Google search - will differ. This document covers the most common scenarios.
Reports
- Create CUSTOM report sections. You're not limited to our stock sections. Add a blank section, edit the title, add widgets from multiple integrations, and organize the section with title headers to create an SEO, Traffic, or PPC overview etc.
- Add and configure custom report widgets, where you can add arbitrary text and images via a WYSIWIG editor. Great for providing commentary, analysis, upsells, coupon codes, custom charts/graphs, client logos, and more.
- Import data from 3rd party integrations that we don't natively support by sending it from the 3rd party API to Zapier.com to a Google Sheet, and finally to our reporting system. This same method with embedding Google Sheets can also be used to pull any arbitrary spreadsheet into our system.
Client Dashboards
- Import data from 3rd party integrations that we don't natively support by sending it from the 3rd party API to Zapier.com to a Google Sheet, and finally to a dashboard widget. This same method with embedding Google Sheets can also be used to pull any arbitrary spreadsheet into our system. Click here to learn more about adding and configuring Google Sheets dashboard widgets
