Why this helps
Ranking reviews can trigger reactive work when changes are noticed without context or a clear comparison period.
- Review a defined keyword set on a schedule
- Keep notable changes documented
- Make comparison limits visible
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Ahrefs and Dovetail once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation named for keyword ranking change reviews.
- 3Tell Notis which keywords, site, and comparison period to review and ask it to document only notable returned changes and their evidence in a Dovetail doc.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real review and check that the comparison period and any missing baseline are stated.
Questions about this workflow
Can Notis detect changes without a prior report?
It needs comparable history from Ahrefs or a baseline you provide. Without either, it should document current results without claiming a change.
Can I define what counts as notable?
Yes. Include your threshold or decision rule in the automation instruction.
