By now you should know that search engine optimisation is an iterative process, part of that process includes reviewing the success of your past action to plan future action.

There are three main areas to measure month after month to keep you on the right track. They are:
Web Analytics: who visited your site, where did they come from and what did they do?
Search Engine Rankings: are you gaining or losing ground for important keywords in the search engine results pages?
