1. Start with the exact geography your firm serves
Desert Palms is recorded in Riverside County. A firm may serve Desert Palms while also accepting matters from elsewhere in Riverside County, across California or in another defined service area. Those are different reporting scopes. The dashboard page describes city and case-type data, keyword coverage, source attribution and trends over time. A useful review should distinguish a Desert Palms target from a Riverside County target and from a statewide target. It should also identify whether a location label refers to a search target, a caller’s stated location, a landing-page location or the office’s service area.
Recommended approach
Before selecting a dashboard scope, write down the places your firm wants to measure separately.
