Enterprise SEO

Automated SEO analysis and reporting for enterprise teams

At enterprise scale the largest single SEO risk is not competitors, it is your own release calendar. A replatform, a CMS change or a URL restructure can cost a year of growth in a weekend. GSC Wizard measures a migration URL by URL and section by section, checks the redirects themselves, and keeps history that outlives Google's retention window.

Multi-property, team seats, migration comparison and up to 10 years of history.

The real enterprise risk

Nobody gets fired for a slow quarter. They get fired for the migration that lost 30% of organic.

A traffic graph tells you a migration went badly. It does not tell you which 4,000 URLs stopped ranking, which redirects went to the wrong target, or which section of the site took the loss. Recovering a migration is a URL-level problem, and it needs URL-level before-and-after data captured before the switch.

The problem

The problems that only appear at scale

Organisational as much as technical, which is why tooling has to address both.

1

Migration damage is diagnosed too slowly to reverse

The rollback window is days. Reconstructing which URLs lost what, from exports taken after the fact, takes weeks. By the time the analysis is done the argument has moved on and the loss has been absorbed into the forecast.

2

Google's 16-month window deletes your baseline mid-project

Enterprise programmes run for years. The pre-migration baseline, the year-one comparison, the evidence for the business case - all of it expires on a rolling sixteen-month schedule, usually right before the board asks for it.

3

Twelve properties, six teams, and no shared source of truth

Regional sites, brand sites, the help centre and the careers site all sit in different accounts owned by different teams. Nobody can answer 'how did organic do this quarter' without a week of collation, and every team's number is calculated slightly differently.

The setup

How to set it up

The migration tooling is the part to configure before you need it.

Step 1

Compare the migration URL by URL

Upload the redirect map and set the go-live date. Migration Compare puts each old URL next to its new one, before and after the switch, groups the result by site section, and checks the mapped redirects for chains, loops and wrong targets. The redirect check works from launch day; click data follows once Search Console has finalised the first days.

Step 2

Capture the baseline before you need it

Full storage properties retain up to 10 years of Search Console data, so the pre-migration and year-one baselines are still there when the post-mortem or the board review happens.

Pricing and storage →

Step 3

Put every property under one roof with seats

Teams and roles let regional and brand teams work in the same account with access to their own properties, so 'organic performance' finally means the same thing in every deck.

Teams and administration →

Step 4

Detect breaks automatically instead of by inspection

Change-point and anomaly detection across every property surfaces statistical breaks without anyone manually reviewing twelve dashboards, which at this scale is the only way problems get found in time.

Anomaly detection →

The output

The week-three migration report

The report that decides whether you roll back or fix forward.

MIGRATION COMPARE - day 21 after go-live
Most recent 21 days vs the 21 days before go-live

RECOVERY     75% of baseline clicks per day
PACE         ahead (on track averages 30% over days 1-21)
PROJECTION   90% between day 58 and day 96
             (likely range; low confidence this early)

BY SECTION        pages before   clicks before   recovery
  /products/            18,400          41,200        94%
  /guides/               6,880          12,900        97%
  /category/             2,140          18,700        44%
  /support/              9,210           9,800        22%

REDIRECT CHECKS                 mappings   clicks before
  Migrated                        33,100          70,300
  Wrong target                     1,880           8,900
  Redirect chain                     640           2,100
  Flag: canonical on old site      2,140          18,700

RECOMMENDATIONS
  high  Point the canonical of 2,140 redirect targets at the
        page itself (the new /category/ pages)
  high  Check 1,880 redirects that miss their mapped target
        (all in /support/, they end on the support hub)

This is the difference between an enterprise migration and an incident: two sections, two named problems with URL counts in week three, instead of a downward graph and an argument. Both are fixable, so you fix forward. The projection is a range, and it narrows as more days come in.

What to watch

The enterprise governance scorecard

URL success rate

The share of migration units (old URLs and the new URLs they map to, judged together) that won back at least half of their clicks, counting only units with enough traffic to judge. It tells you where the damage is rather than that there is damage.

Recovery by section

Clicks recovered per folder of the site, with numeric and ID-like segments folded into one template, and per redirect rule. Enterprise problems are template problems, and this is where they become visible.

Portfolio anomaly count

Statistical breaks detected across all properties per period. Correlated breaks mean an algorithm update; isolated ones mean a release.

Baseline availability

Whether you can still produce the comparison the business will ask for in two years. With Google alone, the answer is no.

Frequently asked questions

How do we measure a site migration properly?

URL by URL, against a baseline from before the switch. Upload the redirect map and set the go-live date: Migration Compare reports each old URL against its new one, groups the result by site section, verifies the redirects themselves and projects recovery with a likely range. You get the URLs and sections that lost ground, and the redirect or canonical problems on them, rather than a traffic graph.

Why does data retention matter at enterprise scale?

Because your programmes outlast Google's sixteen-month window. Pre-migration baselines, year-one comparisons and multi-year business cases all expire on a rolling schedule. Full storage properties keep up to 10 years so the evidence survives the project.

Can multiple teams work in the same account?

Yes. Teams and roles let you add seats and scope access per property, so regional and brand teams see their own sites while central SEO sees the portfolio, and everyone is reading the same definitions.

How do we monitor a dozen properties without twelve dashboards?

Anomaly and change-point detection run across properties and surface statistical breaks, and the cross-site summary puts every property on one screen. The goal is that nobody has to manually inspect a dashboard to find out something broke.
