Explanation of average positions - 7, 30, 90 and 365

This article describes how we calculate the average position at 7, 30, 90, and 365 days in the Rank Tracker.

For example, rather than it be the average position of 90 days, it is the average position from 7 days worth of data - 90 days ago.


MaxDateProcessed = the latest confirmed data we have from Search Console

Latest Position = Position from MaxDateProcessed

7 Day Average = Average position from the 7 days before MaxDateProcessed (so does not include latest position)

30 Day Average = Average position from days -30 to -36 based on MaxDateProcessed

90 Day Average = Average position from days -90 to -96 based on MaxDateProcessed

1 Year Average = Average position from days -365 to -371 based on MaxDateProcessed
