FAQ
Questions, answered plainly
No signup required to read these. If something still feels unclear, start with How it works.
Who is Growth Dashboard for?
Non-technical site owners, solo founders, and marketing leads who want SEO and GEO readiness guidance without becoming specialists. Not (yet) for enterprise agency hierarchies or rank-tracking power users.
How long until I see a baseline report?
After you add a domain, the baseline audit is designed to complete in a few minutes. Connecting Google is optional and can come next for trends and CTR opportunities.
What Google permissions do you need?
Read-only access to Search Console and Analytics when you choose to connect. Tokens are encrypted. You can disconnect and request deletion flows as described in the privacy policy.
Do you give a 0–100 SEO or “growth” score?
No. We show Fix these vs Worth considering with evidence. Fabricated composite scores are out of scope on purpose.
What does GEO mean here?
Generative Engine Optimization readiness: crawler access and content patterns that help answer engines use your pages. We do not claim AI citation rankings or guarantee inclusion in ChatGPT/Perplexity answers.
Will this work on a JavaScript-heavy site?
We fetch HTTP HTML. SEO-critical tags should be in the first server response. If a site is JS-heavy, we communicate partial coverage instead of pretending we fully rendered the app.
How do the three weekly actions get chosen?
Priority order: crawl/index issues first, then CTR opportunities (roughly positions 4–10 with weaker click-through than expected), then pages/queries with a material negative trend. Each action includes evidence and a hypothesis — not certainty.
Is this Ahrefs, Semrush, or an ads tool?
No. We are not a backlink index, full keyword suite, ads manager, or “AI rank” chatbot. We turn trusted Google data plus a standard-based audit into a guided weekly story.
How do you handle my data and privacy?
See our privacy policy for account, site, audit, and Google connection data.
Can I try without connecting Google?
Yes. Add a site and run the baseline audit first. Connect Search Console and GA4 when you want trends, CTR opportunities, and richer weekly actions.
