SEO success is achieved when competitively searched keyphrases are highly ranked in the organic (free, natural) search results. SEO success can come in terms of video ranking, News ranking, image ranking but is usually associated with the positioning of web pages. SEO success can be accomplished by optimizing on-site ranking factors (content, architecture, navigation, images, page Titles, headings, emphasis ...), off-site ranking influences (link popularity, social media signals, external blog ...) or a combination of both.

Hi Clerisy:

You can do a lot of technical analysis of your bounce rate, view time, etc., but I feel there really is only ONE true gauge of your SEO success: Sales.

Have they gone up? If yes, then your SEO campaign is a success. Of course, that assumes you don't have any other marketing efforts.

If you do have other marketing efforts, then you need to ask each time how they heard about you.

All the other indicators are secondary. Of those, your most important metric is where do you rank with the search engines? The others can tell you where to improve, but SERP ranking is critical.

[ovishsmith]

when you get the exact ROI by doing a particular keyword it means SEO gives the best results & you going well

[jahnarisha]

high level measurement of seo success
1. increase in traffic
2. increase in rankings for your keywords
3. increase in revenue

Monitor the traffic to your website, check Google Ranking of the keywords you are targeting, track the sales and revenue you are getting.

seo is a very difficult task for me, so my basis for seo success is getting high traffics, ranking on different search engine, especially in google at number one. high reputation and taking away bad or negative comments on my website.

website should be seo friendly to get all these and it means also that you need to maintain the advertisement on it.

[seoshub]

By using webmaster tools to your website.

[indusharma]

You can check either you are getting succes in seo or not by measuring how many backlinks to your site, how much traffic to your site, your targeted keywords ranking in search engine, daily visitors to your site etc.

[seoshub]

Measure of SEO success is based on
