Insight Graph



The Insight Graph gives you the freedom to create graphs with blended metrics, date ranges, chart types, etc. choosing from our rank data and a variety of third-party integrations.

Compare results to the previous period, same time last year or select your own custom date range, and view with your choice of Main or Secondary Axis options.

Color Palette and Display Settings let you create a custom graph design.

When you're finished creating a graph, save a personalized version and then create additional versions using different metrics, variables, and styles of that graph for the same campaign using our Preset feature.   Export your creation to a variety of image types or PDF, or add it directly to an existing Marketing Dashboard or scheduled White Label PDF Report.

Create New Graph

 

The first time you navigate to Reports > Graphs > Insight Graph for a campaign, you'll see a blank canvas waiting for you to create and customize your first graph.

Three categories of metrics are available in the Insight Graph, click one to begin creating your graph:
  • Campaign Metric: this allows data only from the campaign it is being created in
  • Cross Campaign Metric (Enterprise only feature): this allows data from any account campaign
  • Custom View Metric: this allows data from multiple campaigns to be aggregated (learn more...)             
 New Insight Graph

Once you've created a graph for a campaign you can save it as a Preset for future use, and also for use in other campaigns by selecting the Account-Wide option. When you've saved multiple Presets, you can easily switch between them without the need for changing graph settings (refer to Report Presets instructions).

After creating a graph in a campaign, if you'd like to create another for the same campaign, click the Remove All Metrics button.

Linear is for the data that doesn't differ much from each other. However, it is recommended to use Logarithmic for the data that has a very big difference between the two or more metric data. For example, one metric data values are in thousands while the second is less than 10.
If the metric type for two or more data is the same, then use the same Scale Type. If in this case there is a big difference in metric data set both Scale Types to Logarithmic. For the two or more different metric types use the logarithmic scale only for the metric type that has a high metric data value.

Average Rank Rules

If you want Average Rank calculated differently than actual rank, then enter a Rank Threshold number.

Rank Value enter the value you want Rank Ranger to use for keyword rank that is higher than the Rank Threshold you've chosen. Keyword rank value will then be calculated based on the number you set in the Rank Value field.

Enter 0 if you want the keyword ignored completely when calculating average rank.

Leave the Threshold at 500 and Rank Value at 0 to have the actual rank value used in calculating Average Rank, this is our default method.

Example:
In the screenshot, Rank Value is set at less than or equal to rank position 50, with a Rank Value of 0. This combination would cause keywords ranking in position 51 to 500 to not be counted at all in the Average Rank calculation.

Filter by Search Volume by entering a greater than volume value in order to display only the high volume keywords

Average Rank Rules


Blending Metrics
One of the benefits of the Insight Graph is the ability to blend metrics to tell a marketing story. In this example, Average Rank and Traffic Sessions are trended over a 6 month period.

Custom SEO Metric Formula Options
This tool allows you to set the value of keywords that rank in positions 1 through 100. For example, a keyword that ranks in position 1 and has a monthly search volume of 5000 will have a higher potential click through rate than a keyword ranked in position 1 with a monthly search volume of 100. 
  • Under the Formula & Score Settings heading, click Change Settings
  • Select your preferred formula (more information below)
  • In the Rank Score section enter the numbers you want attributed to each of top 100 search engine result positions
  • In the CTR score section make any adjustments you want for the top 10 positions
  • Click the Save button

custom seo metric formula

Formula options include any combination of these:

Rank Score
  • Actual Rank Score
  • logarithmic (Rank Score)
  • Base-10 logarithmic (Rank Score)
  • 1- (Rank Score)
  • 2* (Rank Score)
Operators
  • Plus
  • Minus
  • Multiply
  • Divide
Click Through Rate Score
  • Actual CTR Score
  • logarithmic(CTR Score)
  • Base-10 logarithmic(CTR Score)
  • 2* (CTR Score)
Using logarithmic(Rank Score), Base-10 logarithmic(Rank Score), logarithmic(CTR Score) and Base-10 logarithmic(CTR Score):

These options reduce the high values to the smaller values in the graph as follows:
  • The logarithmic(Rank Score) and (CTR Score) are the mathematical functions of log(Rank Score) and log(CTR Score), which is use do make the Actual Rank Score and CTR Score smaller in case the values are very high. In this case it's a Natural log of Rank Score and of CRT Score => ln(Rank Score) and ln(CRT Score).
  • Base-10 logarithmic(Rank Score) and (CTR Score) is a 10 to the power of that is equals to the Actual values. For example, Actual Rank Score is 10000 => Base-10 log(1000) = 4 because 1000 = 10 to the power of 4.
Scale Type 
Another way is to scale the graph by choosing Logarithmic Scale Type in the Chart Display Settings of the Metric Widget:
Custom SEO Scale Type
In this case the graph scale will be adjusted and the values will not be changed. In the below example the SERP Feature is with the max score of 2, while the Custom SEO Rank Score is in thousands(K). By applying the Scale Type to be Logarithmic the two graph combined with not a significant difference in the ratio but with the actual values.

Featured Snippet Rank Insight Graph

Featured Snippets become Rank Position 1
On January 23, 2020 Google changed the way Featured Snippets vs organic rank are treated in search results (learn more...). Featured Snippets are now considered to be rank position 1 and the link displayed in them is no longer repeated as a separate organic result on page 1. As such, due to the prominence of the featured snippet's visibility (and potential for click through), we have adapted our tracking to include Featured Snippets as rank position 1 when a keyword we're tracking for you displays a URL in it. 

To help you determine if Google's decision has affected a site's SERP performance, we've enabled settings in the Insight Graph that can be used to create a Rank Position #1 trends graph like this example. 

Rank Position 1 Comparison withor without SERP Features


These are the settings used to create the above graph:

All Campaign Keywords Ranking in Position #1
  • Data Source: Rank
  • Metric: Keyword Position Stats
  • Count Type: Position 1
  • Frequency: Day

Select Ranking Data by Day or Month


Chart Display Date
For Google Analytics metrics in Insight Graphs, when the Frequency is set to Month, there is an option in Chart Display Settings for you to select a Display Date, either the 1st or 15th of the month. That setting determines the position (for comparison with other metrics) in the graph where the marker displays the metric number, however, the actual metric date is based on the report settings. If the report dates cover a 12 month period and the graph is set to monthly frequency, then the number that displays is the month's total - it displays the same number whether the marker is on the 1st or the 15th. 

The system requires a date be selected because Insight Graphs allow the mixing of multiple metric types, so if for example daily or weekly Visibility Score or Average Rank were added to a graph along with Analytics data, the Analytics data needs to match with a date of those metrics during the month.

Google Sheets Data in Insight Graph

Integrate Google Sheets data with marketing metrics in an Insight Graph

Google Sheets integration makes it possible for you to produce a graph with internal company data (e.g., sales, offline advertising, net profit, etc.)  that is not available via third-party integration. That data can easily be blended in a graph with our search engine rank and backlink data, search traffic, social media and email campaign performance, and more.

In this example, we've used Google Sheet data for the Total Sales and Offline Advertising expense, and added Website Sales (from Google Analytics tracking) and AdWords Spend per month (AdWords must be linked to your Google Analytics profile - refer to Link Google Analytics and AdWords).

Insight Graph displaying data from Google Sheets, Analytics and AdWords

Insight Graph with data from Google Sheets, Analytics and AdWords



The first step to graphing data from Google Sheets is to authorize a Google Drive account and connect it to a campaign.

Add Google Sheets Metric
Open an Insight Graph or Metric Widget and select:
  • Data Source: Other Integrations
  • Type: Google Sheets
In the Spreadsheet field, copy and paste the URL of the Google Sheet containing the data
 
Define the Metric Data

Select the Sheet name from the menu (each tab in Google Sheets has a label name, e.g., Sheet1, Sheet 2, or user assigned custom names)

Google Sheets Insight Graph settings


There are two options on how the data to be retrieved from the Google Sheet depending on the Data Range Source selection:

  • GS Specified (Google Sheet Specified - where the only the cells range specified for Dates Range and Values Range from the Google Sheet to be displayed in the Insight Graph.)
    • Dates Range - Enter the start cell and end cell that contain the dates
    • Values Range - Enter the start cell and end cell that contain the values
      Insight Graph Google Sheet Specified
  • Correlated with Report (The dates are matched to the Insight Graph Date Range selected in the report and the data dynamically changes when the report data range is changed.)
    • Dates Range - Recommended to specify the column of the dates in order to capture the future populated dates, for example A for the start and A for the end date
    • Values Range - Recommended to specify the column of the values in order to capture the future populated values, for example B for the start and B for the end values 
      Insight Graph Report Correlated Date Range
Using the following Google Sheet example, the Insight Graph settings in the previous image correspond to a Date Range from cells A2 - A13; January 2019 - December 2019, and Avg Position from cells B2 - B13.

Google Sheet Example

Important! Dates must be entered in the Google Sheet as numbers only (e.g., MM/DD/YYYY) regardless of the display format when viewing Google Sheets. In the above screenshot, Jan 2019 is displaying, but if you look in the fx cell the date is 1/1/2019.


Value Type: select Decimal or Integer

Y-Axis Name and Format Settings

By default each metric has its own separate Y Axis with a label matching the Metric Name field.
  • If you want the Y Axis name to be different than the metric name, you can enter the label in the Y Axis name field.
  • If you want a group of metrics all plotted on the same Y axis, then enter the same Y Axis name when adding each metric.
  • You can set the Y-Axis data to display in ascending or descending order.

Y-Axis Format Examples
In this example, the Avg Pos metric has a Y-Axis setting of Ascending, and the Clicks metric's Y-Axis is set to Descending to make a visual correlation between the average position and number of clicks. 

Y-Axis example 1


In this example, the settings are reversed 
Y-Axis example 2


In this example, the Avg Pos metric is displayed as a line with Y-Axis in Descending order and Clicks are set to Y-Axis Ascending order. 
Y-Axis example 3




Insight Graph with Shared Y-Axis

In this example, "Percent" was entered in the Y Axis name field of all 4 metrics to cause them all to be graphed on the same scale. 
shared Y axis

Refer to Metric Display Settings to learn more about colors, chart types, markers, labels and date options.


Troubleshooting Google Sheets data in an Insight Graph
If the Google Sheet data does not appear on the screen at all:
  • Confirm that the campaign is connected the Google Drive account that the Sheet is located in.
  • Confirm that the connected Google account has not exceeded Google's Service Quota. Every time you or anyone you've shared online reports with loads or refreshes a screen, the data is called from Google's API. Therefore, we recommend only using Google Sheets for data that is not available in Rank Ranger via the variety of integrations that we offer.
  • If you see a 0 or a flat line at the 0 position for dates that do have data in your Google Sheet, that means that the selected range of values in the metric is incorrect and you need to replace it with the correct column and row references.
  • If the Google Sheet that you originally referenced in a metric has been modified in such a way that row numbers or column letters changed, then you need to update each metric previously added in Rank Ranger to match the new data structure (e.g., if you referenced data in Value Range B1:B12 and then inserted a column to the left of column B that changes it to column C, then you need to change the Value Range to C1:C12 in your Rank Ranger metrics).
If after following the above instructions, your Insight Graph doesn't display the data correctly from your Google Sheet:
  • Share that Google Sheet with service@rankranger.com and
  • Send an email to service@rankranger.com with the campaign name and Insight Graph location, for example:
    • Campaign Insight Graph report screen
    • Marketing Dashboard, along with page name and Insight Graph custom title
    • Client Dashboard
    • PDF Report name, along with Insight Graph custom title
  • Include screenshots or video of a specific behavior you experienced, if possible

IBM Coremetrics Insight Graph

Create Insight Graphs using IBM Digital Analytics
