The problem
Nobody remembers what changed three months ago
Traffic rarely moves without a reason. Someone published content, edited titles for SEO, raised the ad budget, replaced the homepage banner or migrated the site. But these changes live in people's heads, in e-mail threads and in scattered spreadsheets.
What happens if it isn't solved
Without history, you can't learn from your own results
When traffic drops, the investigation starts from zero. When it grows, nobody knows what to repeat. Agencies have trouble showing clients which actions made a difference, and teams repeat changes that already failed once.
How WEBPilot helps
One timeline per website
In WEBPilot each website has its own timeline. Every entry records the date, a category (SEO, content, Google Ads, social media, technical change, landing page or other), a description, an optional cost and notes. When traffic data arrives, the entries will be shown on the chart at the moment they happened.
What you will see
Seven categories
SEO, content, Google Ads, social media, technical, landing page and other.
Cost per action
Record what each action cost, in any currency.
Notes for later
Add what you observed weeks after the change.
All websites together
One combined view with the actions of every website.
Status: Available now
The strategy log works today. Create an account, add a website and record your first entry. The connection with traffic charts will be added when data collection launches.
