Before choosing which personnel metrics you are going to measure, decide which system you will use to capture them. Many HR teams start the wrong way round: they ask for a dashboard with the “most used” KPIs and then discover that their ERP does not export the employee’s termination date or that turnover is calculated […]
The most frequently asked questions about HR KPIs Anyone who works with personnel data knows that the theory of indicators is simple; the hard part is deciding which ones to measure, how to interpret them, and when to stop using them. These are the questions that come up again and again in HR teams, with […]
Why a KPI is not what appears on the dashboard In an ecommerce project with around 4,000 SKUs, the team celebrated a growing organic traffic KPI for months. The problem came when we cross-referenced that data with transactions: the growth came from discontinued product pages that were receiving visits from people searching for the old […]
Before defining a KPI: the four-question filter A KPI (Key Performance Indicator) is a metric that you have deliberately chosen to answer whether you are closer to or further from a specific objective. The key lies in “deliberately chosen”: not every piece of data your system produces is a KPI, and that is where most […]
There is a scene that repeats itself in almost every measurement meeting: someone projects a dashboard with twenty metrics in green, and even so, no one knows whether the campaign worked. The problem is almost never the tool. It is the layer of beliefs that has been built around digital marketing KPIs. Here are six […]
Confusing a KPI with an objective is not a semantic detail: it is the silent cause of dashboards that no one looks at and of teams that celebrate figures that do not move the business. The objective is the destination; the KPI is the speedometer. When they get mixed up, the speedometer ends up driving […]
A sales KPI is not a pretty number on a dashboard: it is a signal that tells you whether the sales team is moving forward or just moving. For someone starting to measure, the most common mistake is accumulating metrics without first deciding what they will do with them. Here are concrete examples, with the […]
A goal without a KPI is an intention; a KPI without a goal is an orphaned number. This checklist helps you separate them in practice, especially when an analytics dashboard starts filling up with metrics that nobody knows the purpose of. Quick checklist: is it a goal or a KPI? Check each box. If you […]
The 2026 shift: less vanity metrics, more pipeline velocity If you look at sales dashboards from three or four years ago, you’ll see a collection of metrics that today generate more noise than decisions: number of calls, emails sent, raw leads. The recent trend among sales teams involves measuring the pace at which an opportunity […]
Most businesses I know don’t fail with KPIs because they don’t have them, but because they build a dashboard with twenty metrics that nobody looks at after the third week. Defining useful KPIs is an exercise in cutting back, not accumulating. Start with the decision, not the metric A KPI only makes sense if it […]
I have used Similarweb in three different contexts: an agency evaluating prospects before a proposal, a client who wanted to “spy” on their direct competition, and a project of my own where I needed a quick traffic figure for a report. In all three cases the tool worked, but never in the way people expect […]
Can you see the real traffic of any domain? Not exactly. Tools like Semrush, Ahrefs or SimilarWeb estimate visits based on clickstream panels, provider data and statistical models. According to the documentation of these platforms, their figures are approximations: they get the order of magnitude right for large sites, but they fail on small domains […]
Estimating a site’s traffic without access to its analytics is more an exercise in deduction than in guesswork. Before opening any dashboard, it helps to be clear about what can and cannot be known. This checklist gathers the steps that do provide useful signals, ordered from most reliable to most speculative. Before you start: what […]
When someone needs to estimate how much traffic a competitor’s website receives, the first decision is not technical but economic: is a free tool enough for me, or do I need to pay? The answer depends on what type of data you want to take as certain and how much margin of error you can […]
Estimating how much traffic someone else’s website receives is a common need in competitive analysis, due diligence, or sales prospecting. The practical question isn’t which tool exists, but how much it’s worth paying for data that, at best, is an estimate. According to the providers’ own documentation, no third-party tool accesses another website’s actual server […]
