First Check-in! What data should I collect?

Spencer, I’m using Plausible for Analytics. Plausible doesn’t delineate between traffic types, so there’s no “organic” traffic metric. However, it does show traffic sources. You can see a live example of the data it collects here: https://plausible.io/plausible.io
Any traffic from Google would be organic. May I use Plausible and count Google traffic as organic traffic, or am I required to set up and use GA4?

Hey y’all here’s my update and Niche Reveal 😱😱

Hey Spencer! Apologies, I didn’t see a notification for this one – is there somewhere special we are needing to be uploading this? :/ The original challenge post doesn’t seem to have any updated on it either – Sorry if I’ve missed it!

Mine here (Late, but results are unchanged hehe)
1. Organic Search Traffic from GA4: Currently 0 – I’m building out a Print on Demand store and need some base products up and live before I want to launch and build blogs around the topic 😉 Hopefully live within the week.

2. Clicks in GSC
Also, 0 🙂 Hoping the getting prepped strategy will work better in my favour rather than launching an unorganised store to start with…

3. Total Traffic in GA4
🙂

4. Total # of articles
0 Blog articles as such, but building out Collection and Product pages to hit specific researched keywords.

Been using Keysearch for keyword research and doing lots of research on SEO, AI and POD – big learning curve and taking as much in before I really get stuck into it!

Spencer,

Can you create a thread for each checkin video? Give it a good label so we know where to post our videos?

I just posted under the Week 1 thread and probably should have posted my video here. Sorry for the duplicate entry.

My original idea of a review site didn’t work because chatGPT was producing false information. Moving on to a politically themed niche.

Hi sorry I’m late with it, I’ve just done the video and form now. I’m not too late am I? I’m in the UK so my timing is a little different.
