Why it matters
Brand search volume is a leading indicator of brand awareness and marketing effectiveness. A successful top-of-funnel campaign — content, PR, paid social — should produce a measurable lift in brand search volume 2–8 weeks later.
How to improve Brand Search Volume
Invest in content that gets shared (original research, frameworks, contrarian takes), build press and PR that gets brand name mentions, run awareness campaigns in channels your ICP uses.
Track as a relative trend month-over-month. Rising brand search volume indicates increasing brand awareness.
Prooflytics tracks Brand Search Volume automatically from your connected sources and flags it in your daily briefing when it moves significantly.
