Where does the SEO team's work show up?
Everything the team produces lands inside the open project, across three sub-tabs in the centre of the SEO workspace: Data holds the files it saves (the findings and the tables behind them), Analysis lets you look through those tables, and Charts shows the charts it built for you. You open the project, then click between those tabs to read the work.
Before you start
- Open a project that has been run. See How do I run an SEO audit with the team?.
- If a project has never been run, these tabs are mostly empty. That is expected until the team has produced something.
Step 1: Open the project
Click the project in the left column. The centre shows a header with the client and project name, a Run team or Stop button, and the three sub-tabs: Data, Analysis and Charts.
Step 2: Read the files in Data
Click Data. This lists the files the team saved for the project, the way a folder would. Click a file to preview it on the right. This is where the written findings and the data tables behind them live.
- If a file cannot be shown inline, use Open to view it in the right app on your Mac.
- Before a run has produced anything, this reads "No data files yet".
Step 3: Look through the tables in Analysis
Click Analysis to browse the data tables the team saved as a grid, with a box to Filter rows… so you can find a specific competitor, keyword or page. This is for reading the numbers behind the findings yourself.
Step 4: See the charts in Charts
Click Charts. It opens on Curated, described as "The team's self-reviewed charts". These are the charts the SEO Executive built and checked before publishing, so they are the ones meant for you and, in turn, for your client.
Next to it is Explore, "Chart any dataset yourself", where you can chart the saved data your own way if you want a different cut.
If a project has no tabular data yet, Charts reads "No datasets yet" and explains that tables the team saves appear here to chart once you run an analysis.
Watching it as it happens
While the team is still working, the Live View at the top of the right column mirrors the page an agent is reading. That is a live look at the work in progress, not the final output. The finished output is what lands in the three tabs above.
How do I know it worked?
- Data lists one or more saved files you can open and read.
- Charts shows self-reviewed charts under Curated.
- The project's status reads Done and the Team dots are green.
Common problems
"The tabs are empty." The project has not produced anything yet. Run it, or wait for a run in progress to finish. See How do I run an SEO audit with the team?.
"A file will not preview." Some file types do not show inline. Use Open to view the file in its usual app on your Mac.
"There are no charts." Charts are built from tables the team saves. If a run produced no tabular data, there is nothing to chart yet.
