1. Start with the geographic definition
A dashboard can become misleading when a firm treats “Belleville” as an undefined market. Bosseo’s public page says its dashboard can show keyword rankings, case-type data and city data. Before reviewing any report, ask whether a location field means Belleville, another place in Essex County, a wider New Jersey target or a metropolitan area. Those are different geographic scopes.
Recommended approach
Write the geographic definitions into the measurement plan. Separate Belleville from Essex County and from any broader New Jersey or metropolitan target. During a consultation, ask to see how city, county and state labels appear in rankings, lead records and attribution.
