Key Segmentation Logic
Brand vs. Non-Brand Segmentation
GSC data is segmented using the following 13-variant regex applied to the Query dimension:
zuora|zoura|zuroa|zurora|zuara|zuoro|zora|zuor|zuoara|zoora|zuaro|zaiora|zuoura
Branded Queries: Queries matching the regex (e.g., "zuora", "zoura", "zora")
Non-Branded Queries: All queries NOT matching the regex (e.g., "subscription billing software", "revenue recognition")
Non-Branded Queries: All queries NOT matching the regex (e.g., "subscription billing software", "revenue recognition")
Site Section Mapping
Page-level data is aggregated into logical site sections using URL path prefixes:
| Section | URL Path | Content Type |
|---|---|---|
| /products/ | All pages starting with /products/ | Commercial product pages |
| /guides/ | All pages starting with /guides/ | Educational guides and best practices |
| /glossary/ | All pages starting with /glossary/ | Terminology and definitions |
| /solutions/ | All pages starting with /solutions/ | Industry-specific use cases |
Calculation Methodologies
Month-over-Month (MoM) Change
MoM Change = (Current Month Value - Previous Month Value) / Previous Month Value × 100%
Year-over-Year (YoY) Change
YoY Change = (Current Month Value - Same Month Previous Year Value) / Same Month Previous Year Value × 100%
Average Conversion Rate
Avg CVR = (Total Key Events / Total Sessions) × 100%
Example: (112,113 / 1,190,118) × 100% = 6.15%
Click-Through Rate (CTR)
CTR = (Total Clicks / Total Impressions) × 100%
