Net Promoter Score in SEO
DIRECT ANSWER
Net Promoter Score (NPS) is a customer loyalty metric derived from a single survey question: 'How likely are you to recommend us to a friend or colleague?' on a 0–10 scale. Respondents are classified as Promoters (9–10), Passives (7–8), or Detractors (0–6). NPS equals the percentage of Promoters minus the percentage of Detractors. In SEO specifically, this means Audit technical health: crawl errors, Core Web Vitals, index coverage, canonical conflicts and Track keyword rankings daily and flag position changes above a configurable threshold — all of which Hadrian's SEO Agent executes autonomously on your live data.
What net promoter score means in SEO
Scores range from −100 to +100. A positive NPS indicates more Promoters than Detractors. The absolute score matters less than the trend over time and the gap versus close competitors. A score of +30 in a category where competitors average +10 signals a meaningful loyalty advantage; the same score in a category averaging +50 signals a problem.
For SEO teams, net promoter score is a lever that needs consistent execution. The SEO Agent reads Google Search Console (impressions, CTR, position by query), Ahrefs / Semrush (keyword database, backlink index, competitor rankings), GA4 (organic sessions, landing page conversions) and applies net promoter score across: Audit technical health: crawl errors, Core Web Vitals, index coverage, canonical conflicts; Track keyword rankings daily and flag position changes above a configurable threshold; Identify topical gap clusters vs competitors using SERP overlap analysis; Generate keyword-to-URL mapping and flag cannibalization risks; Produce structured content briefs (H1, meta, headings, word count, internal links) for priority pages; Monitor backlink profile for new, lost, and toxic links and escalate toxic patterns.

FAQ

How frequently should we survey for NPS?
