Analytics For Seo Resources
How does the data quality checklist pass?

It passes when events, properties, metric definitions, cohort logic, dashboard freshness, and owner approval all have visible evidence. A partial pass should become a hold note, not a recommendation. The practical test is whether the evidence, caveat, and owner are clear enough for a reviewer to approve the next step without guessing.

What should happen when a required property is inconsistent?

The affected metric or segment should stay held until the schema is fixed or the analysis is scoped to clean data. The checklist should name the affected report and owner. The practical test is whether the evidence, caveat, and owner are clear enough for a reviewer to approve the next step without guessing.

When should metric definitions hold planning work?

Hold planning work when numerator, denominator, population, exclusion rules, or time window changed without a break label. The team needs a like-for-like comparison before acting. The practical test is whether the evidence, caveat, and owner are clear enough for a reviewer to approve the next step without guessing.

Why is dashboard freshness a checklist item?

Freshness tells the team whether the behavior is current, stale, or partially loaded. Without it, the team can take action on old or incomplete product analytics data. The practical test is whether the evidence, caveat, and owner are clear enough for a reviewer to approve the next step without guessing.

How do we know the event completeness check is ready?

For Product Analytics Data Quality Readiness Checklist, check event completeness before changing the recommendation. Keep the recommendation caveated when hold if any decision-critical event lacks evidence, definition, trigger clarity, or owner.
