Top SEO Factors for October 2022

I wish team Digitaleer could take the credit for the collection of this data, it's actually really useful when you look at months compared to each other before and after updates to see what "may have changed, in regards to the top SEO factors to focus on.

But sadly, I can't.

This particular table is but a small part of a much larger project put together by Ted Kubaitis, owner and developer of Cora and Cora Lite.

His site, TopSEOFactors.com, is built off the back of data collection of Cora users. That data is then anonymized and sent to a central server where all the measured factors from the software are put together to create this Top 200 report.

This allows us to get beyond looking at just our own keyword data sets in individual markets and compare those trend reports with data collected from a much wider user base.

As will all data, understand that there are several factors that can influence the Top SEO Factors, and regardless of the information gleamed you'll need your own experience, testing, and implementation methods to fully leverage this information successfully.

Here is a brief walkthrough of the data you can find on Ted's site, and more importantly, what the columns mean in the table below and how to leverage them when measuring you're own top SEO factors.
