Some other tools/ideas that can guide a #SEO Specialist in your journey towards being more data-driven.
There are a lot of loanwords from #datascience in here!
Another thread again π§΅π§΅
SQL and DBMS (Database Management System): the former is a language to perform queries on a database, the latter is a system to manage a database.
If you're tired of ""storing"" your data in unreliable Excel sheets then you're in the right place...
...Google BigQuery is one top-tier tool that you can explore for storage and for queries/calculations.
SQL is the most important technical data skill you can wish for!
Data Visualization: manipulating data and automation can be cool but you need visualization skills.
Spend some time to think about the best way to represent your data and how you can tell a story with them.
It seems easy, trust me, it is not!
Statistics: yes, you've read it right, Statistics. The nightmare of many students and one of the most tricky subjects on the planet...
...Fortunately, understanding the basics very well can get you far in #SEO and digital marketing, given that you acknowledge those scenarios where you admit you need someone more experienced!
Cloud solutions: if you are going to code something you'll face the hard truth of deploying models on cloud, such as AWS, Azure or GCP.
I recommend learning Google Cloud Platform (GCP) because, you know, as an #SEO you normally work with Google APIs.
Domain knowledge: this terms is much more frequent in #datascience and in the SEO world it's close to having the so-called business knowledge.
It doesn't matter actually, the important is to have an understanding of what you can expect from the data in a given domain.
Linguistics: #NLP and Knowledge Graphs are rooted in natural language, so studying some concepts can greatly improve the understanding of some algorithms.
I think that if you start learning a little bit of each you can have a different perspective on many tasks and/or strategies.
Being cross-disciplinary can make you more attractive in the job market as well!

1. Sitemap analysis: check content velocity and how much content your competitors have per section. You can also look for most common words in their URLs to have a high-level overview of what they post about
2. Broken link checker: pretty basic. Highly suggested when you need a lightweight function and don't want to launch Screaming Frog or other tools.
