Hi and welcome to another edition of Whiteboard Friday. I'm Zoe. I work in the Learning team here at Moz, and my focus is on developing educational materials and resources to promote understanding of our STAT tool. Today, we're going to take a look at how you can use STAT to surface additional insights in your keyword data. Looking for value in your keyword data is important if you're a brand trying to stay visible and on top of the forever-changing SERPs. Looking for those additional insights is paramount to making informed SEO decisions.
What is STAT?
So what is STAT? If you haven't come across STAT before, it's a large-scale rank tracker, but it's also fantastic for many other things, SERP analysis and intent, a competitive landscape tool. Its value is really how you can dig into the data it provides.
Quick wins
So where are the quick wins here? Well, we know that usually improved ranking position means increased or at least some uplift in traffic for that term. Knowing where you sit on the SERPs and what features you're winning can make or break your content strategy. This is where STAT's dynamic tags can be hugely useful.
Dynamic tagging
Dynamic tagging allows you to group keywords together based on criteria you set. That group is then automatically populated daily with keywords based on changeable filter criteria.
