Before you start
- Your Search Console exportIn Search Console open Performance, pick the last 28 days or 3 months, press Export and Download CSV. Unzip it and use Pages.csv and Queries.csv together, or one export that has both a query and a page column (the best: it ties each search to its page exactly). No Google sign-in.
- Your Aha Studio accountQuick Wins is for members. It uses no AI and no paid data, so a check costs nothing from your plan.
- Optional: your business in your profileWith a description under About you, searches that share its words are marked Fits your business and come first.
One change per page, so you can tell what worked. A page you change goes on the 90-day ledger and is left alone until its check date: Google needs that long to settle.
PART 01
This week's check
0 of 5 done- Open Quick WinsAt quickwins.ahastudio.net, or press Start something new on your account page and choose Weekly check.
- Pick your filesYour files: Pages.csv and Queries.csv together, or the query and page export. The site is read from the page addresses when you leave it empty.
- Press Check my pagesUp to 10 pages are read (their title, headings and links), and your sitemap, so a new page is never one you already have.
- Tick the changesEach page shows the searches behind it and one proposed change with its evidence. Tick the ones you will make this week, then Make these changes. Nothing is written before you pick. Nothing this week closes the check.
- Make themA title or a link is drafted here: Copy and paste it. A new section or a new page opens in SEO Magnets with the search and the brief filled in.
PART 02
How the change is chosen
The pagesPages with at least 10 impressions sitting in average positions 5 to 20, the ones with the most buyer searches first.
Buyer searchesA search with service, price, cost, best, vs, review, near me, hire and the like in it, or one KeywordIntent's intent scoring calls transactional or commercial, is marked Buyer. The change is made for the biggest buyer search on the page.
The title firstWhen the title does not hold every word of that search, the change is the title, with a suggested one that starts with the search and keeps your site name.
Else one sectionWhen the title has it but no heading on the page does, the change is one section headed with the search.
Else one internal linkWhen both have it, the change is one link to the page from a named stronger page (more clicks and a better position, on the same subject where there is one) that does not link to it yet.
New pagesAt most 2: buyer searches with impressions below position 20 that no page covers (by its address in your export and your sitemap), placed in a folder where your pages already reach the top 10 with clicks. No folder works yet: no new page is proposed.
Pages.csv with Queries.csvThese two files do not say which search lands on which page, so a search is shown on a page when every word of it is in the page address. The query and page export ties them exactly.
PART 03
The 90-day ledger
What it keepsEvery change you pick, per site: the page, the target search, the change, the date and the next check date (90 days later).
SettlingA page changed in the last 90 days shows as settling, check on its date and gets no proposal until then.
Check againEach upload compares every ledger page's position at the change with its position now, in plain words ("Moved up from average position 12.4 to 8.1"). Before the check date it is marked as an early read.
Not made after allNot made takes a row off the ledger, so the page can be proposed again.
