How Bildap Tracks SEO Growth Using Ahrefs Site Audit and Analytics Tools
Improving SEO is only half the battle. Knowing if your efforts are working is what truly drives long-term success. At Bildap, we use Ahrefs Site Audit and analytics tools to track SEO growth, monitor site health, and measure real business impact for our clients.
Here’s how we combine data and strategy to make sure our SEO work moves the needle—consistently and transparently.
Why Tracking SEO Matters More Than Ever
SEO is not a set-it-and-forget-it tactic. Algorithms change. Competitors adapt. Technical issues sneak in. Tracking performance helps us:
Catch and fix SEO problems early
Measure the impact of content and keyword strategies
Identify growth opportunities
Align SEO with business outcomes like leads and sales
Without reliable data, even great SEO work can miss the mark. That’s where Ahrefs comes in.
Step 1: Run a Full Technical Audit with Ahrefs Site Audit
Every new SEO project starts with a comprehensive site audit. We use Ahrefs Site Audit to scan your website for over 100 technical issues that can affect performance, including:
Broken links
Duplicate content
Redirect chains
Slow-loading pages
Missing or incorrect metadata
This gives us a technical baseline and helps prioritize fixes that can boost rankings and improve user experience.
Example: One client had dozens of orphaned pages (pages with no internal links). We fixed the structure and saw a 35% increase in crawl efficiency and indexed pages.
Step 2: Track Organic Traffic and Keyword Rankings
Using Ahrefs’ Site Explorer and Rank Tracker, we monitor:
Organic traffic by page and keyword
Movement in target keyword rankings
Which URLs are gaining or losing visibility
Competitor keyword overlap
This tells us what’s working and where to optimize further.
Pro tip: We segment data by branded and non-branded terms to understand whether growth is coming from new search audiences or returning users.
Step 3: Monitor New and Lost Backlinks
Backlinks are still a major ranking factor. Ahrefs shows us:
Which pages are earning new backlinks
Which links have been lost (and why)
Which domains are sending referral traffic
We use this data to adjust our link-building strategy, recover valuable lost links, and build on content that’s already performing well.
Example: After publishing a client’s industry report, we tracked backlinks from multiple high-authority blogs. That single piece brought in 15 new referring domains and a 20% bump in organic traffic.
Step 4: Keep an Eye on Site Health Scores
Ahrefs assigns a Site Health Score based on technical SEO performance. We use this as a quick-glance KPI to track:
How many issues have been resolved
How many new problems have appeared
Progress over time across audits
This is especially helpful for clients who want regular check-ins or monthly reporting. A rising health score often correlates with better rankings and crawl performance.
Step 5: Use Reporting to Guide Strategy
Data isn’t just for diagnostics—it shapes what we do next.
Each month, we review:
Technical SEO fixes and outstanding issues
Organic keyword and traffic trends
Backlink growth and link-building targets
High-performing content and pages that need updates
Then we use those insights to adjust content calendars, revise underperforming pages, or ramp up promotion for top content.

Ahrefs Site Audit and analytics tools help us make smarter decisions and keep our clients informed every step of the way. Whether it’s fixing crawl errors or tracking keyword wins, we turn raw data into clear, actionable strategy.
