URLTO GUIDE

Compare keyword observations with recorded dates

Record the observation date and metric period together. A monthly figure changing between checks is not a daily search increase.

Steps to verify

  • Use the same keyword spelling.
  • Record source, date and value.
  • Mark unobserved periods as missing.

How to interpret the result

The rows are observations at those times. Unobserved dates should not be interpolated and presented as actual history.

Deciding what to do next

Separate monthly demand from site traffic when comparing before and after publication. Do not attribute a volume change directly to one article.

Feature scope

Monthly volumes, related terms and competition use Naver Search Ads; trends use Google Trends. URLTO scores and phrase ideas are proprietary references, not invented missing observations.

Frequently asked questions

Can unobserved past values be restored?

Missing observations are not fabricated. Work from stored observations and currently available data.
