However, you will want to further analyze your organic traffic in a separate report. If so, you can add the default “organic traffic” segment to the top of the report. This will allow you to track your audience, behaviour, and conversion reports for your organic traffic segment GOOGLE ANALYTICS.
Now that you know how to find the sbxhrl metrics in Google Analytics, let’s talk about what specific metrics to analyze to get the value of your organic traffic right.
How To Measure The Value Of Your Organic Traffic With Google Analytics
So Why Would You Want To Measure Your SEO Impact?
Because CEOs and SME owners usually underestimate it. However, estimating the value of SEO and organic traffic for your business is a unique challenge.
Because organic search traffic (such as social traffic) is often at the forefront of the marketing funnel, these days, if not most consumers, many consumers do not convert into paying customers when they first visit. They visit your website.
As I mentioned in last week’s post, you may need an email marketing or re-marketing campaign to convert. Thus, organic search traffic is often not given the credit it deserves to generate revenue for the business, and is permanently underestimated by management.
That’s why I use “Multi-Channel Funnels” reports in Google Analytics to measure the value of sbxhrl. Specifically, I recommend using the “Assisted Conversions” report (Conversions >> Multi-Channel Funnels >> Assisted Conversions).
This is probably the best report to investigate whether Google Analytics is reducing the value of organic search traffic (or any channel) with a last-click attribution (a digital analytics model calls any channel “last”. Click “gives credit for the change).
The report focuses on the “assisted conversion” metric, which represents conversions where a channel appeared in the conversion path but did not interact with the final conversion.
Think of help in basketball, where a player may not be the one to shoot the ball through the hoop, but he can help his teammate. Because assistants are important to the basketball team and make “scoring” (or “conversion”) possible, the number of assistants must be tracked in both basketball and basketball to understand the value of a player for a team. Is it an important metric for As in digital marketing?
Therefore, a conversion report is your best option to understand the real impact of your SEO. You may be surprised to learn that your sbxhrl efforts are worth twice as much as you think.
Step: Go To Your Assistant Conversions Report
Click Conversions >> Multi-Channel Funnels >> Assisted Conversions. There you will see the number of supported conversions for each of your channel groups and the value of those conversions.
As you can see from this screenshot, the display has the highest support conversion / last click ratio for the Google Merchandise Store, meaning the display has the lowest estimated impact on the number of business conversions.
Step: View Your Assisted Conversions For Organic Search Traffic
Click “Organic Search” under “MCF Channel Grouping”. Here you will see
Step: Compare The Value Of Your Auxiliary Conversions With The Value Of Direct Conversions For Each Source (Search Engine)
In this screenshot, most of the conversions that come from Google for business, and organic search support come. If you compare this business’s Google Organic Search-assisted conversion value ($ 2912.08) with their direct conversion value ($ 2717.08). You will see that the actual Google Organic Search value for this business is Twice as much. The value of its direct conversion.
In other words, an SEO analyst can show his manager or client that the value of sbxhrl is double. What they actually thought, based on direct conversions only!
Now that you know how to demonstrate the value of SEO with Google Analytics. Let’s talk about which metrics to monitor to understand the organic search performance of your business.

Today we cover: (1) how to isolate your organic search traffic in Google Analytics. Reports and (2) how to measure the value of your organic traffic with Google Analytics.
As you can see, learning to analyze sbxhrl with Google Analytics is not an easy task. It takes a lot of time and money to learn.
That is why we are helping in the humanities. I visit a few dozen companies to improve their digital channels, including their SEO and organic search traffic. Many of these companies run very intelligent and technical co-founders. But even those trained in digital marketing and data analytics often do not have the bandwidth. Or resources to gain practical insights from their SEO data.
That’s why the next feature we’re building into our digital analytics platform is an AI-based tool that recommends the right digital channels to focus on. This AI tool will tell you if sbxhrl based on your Google Analytics data is the right channel for your business, so you don’t have to spend money on the wrong marketing.
