Optimization

Analyse, approve, execute, read back, observe, verify. Then again.

A change that went live has been made. A change that worked has been measured. Signal keeps the two apart in the record, in the dashboard and in every report, so improvement is something shown rather than something claimed.

The loop

Six moves in every cycle

  1. 01

    Live

    Analyse

    Nightly reads of search, traffic, ads and the public site become ranked opportunities with impact, confidence, coverage, effort and dependency.

  2. 02

    Live

    Approve

    Each proposed change is written up with the expected outcome, the access it needs and the approval level it requires under your scope.

  3. 03

    Live

    Execute

    The Signal team makes the change in your account or on your site, and records who made it and when.

  4. 04

    Partial

    Read back

    The live account or page is read again to confirm the change is really there, in the form that was approved.

  5. 05

    Partial

    Observe

    The data is left to accumulate for the measurement window the change needs. Nothing is called a result early.

  6. 06

    Partial

    Verify, then adjust

    The observed outcome is compared with the expected one and recorded as verified, failed or rolled back. Either way, the next cycle starts from it.

Applied is never shown as verified. A change that went live has been made. A change that is verified has been measured against what it was supposed to do, after the observation window, and the comparison is kept.

What the record keeps today

For website fixes, the record already holds the baseline scan, who selected the action, when it was deployed and with what reference, the re-scan it was verified against, and the verdict. The approval step and the observation window are being added to the same record; until then they are tracked by the team in the engagement notes.

Who executes

Managed by people, recorded by the platform

Signal managed execution

With your authorised access and agreed guardrails, the Signal team builds and changes campaigns, keywords, negatives, budgets, targeting, ads, landing pages, tracking and follow-up now. Every change is recorded with what changed, why, who approved it and when it went live.

SignalIQ automated execution

SignalIQ does not change any account by itself. Automated changes are a separate product capability with their own scope, approval, validation, audit history, live read-back and outcome verification gates, and they are not switched on today.

Status today

The capabilities behind this page

Ranked opportunities

Live

Search and website findings are turned into ranked actions with impact, effort and risk, refreshed nightly.

Signal managed execution

Live

With authorised access and agreed guardrails, the Signal team makes campaign, keyword, budget, landing page, tracking and content changes now, and records each one.

Change and verification record

Partial

Website fixes are recorded with who selected them, when they were deployed and a re-scan verdict. An approval step and an observation window are not yet recorded.

Automated Google Ads changes

Planned

SignalIQ makes no changes to any ad account. A test in the codebase fails the build if a write call is ever added. The Signal team makes agreed changes by hand.

Start the first cycle

The free audit is the first analysis. What you approve after that is up to you.
