An **SEO dashboard** is a single view that collects key metrics of organic search, usually as charts and tables updated from connected data sources. Typical content is traffic, keyword rankings and technical health over time.

## What goes into an SEO dashboard?

Vendor pages from Geckoboard, Klipfolio and Semrush list similar building blocks:

- Search Console data: clicks, impressions, click-through rate, average position
- Web analytics data: organic sessions, landing pages, conversions
- Rankings for a chosen keyword set
- Technical indicators such as crawl errors, indexed pages or Core Web Vitals
- Backlink metrics, in some tools

Which of these belong in a given dashboard depends on who reads it. Management usually needs a few trend lines, while an SEO team adds tables with pages and queries.

Dashboards often run on Looker Studio, spreadsheet connectors or the reporting module of an SEO suite. Teams that want a longer history than the Search Console interface offers can export performance data to BigQuery and build on that.

## Dashboard and report

A dashboard shows the current state at a glance, while a report explains a closed period and what to do about it (assessment).

## Example

A leadership dashboard has three tiles: organic clicks against the previous year, share of branded queries and the number of pages with technical errors. The SEO team adds a table of the pages that lost the most clicks. (Invented example.)
