Tracking Your Progress

Posted November 20, 2025Updated November 21, 2025By Zak Kann

The editor's header bar shows you exactly what you need to know: "Am I done yet?"

The Key Metrics

All metrics appear in the top header bar of the editor.

1. Entity Coverage Score (The Most Important One)

A percentage (0-100%) showing how well you are covering important topics compared to competitors.

  • Goal: Reach the green "Optimal Range" shown under the score.
  • How to improve: Add the Red entities in the sidebar.

2. Word Count

Your current article length.

  • Guideline: Aim for 1500-2500 words for comprehensive content.
  • Remember: Quality > Quantity. Don't fluff to hit a number.

3. Outline Progress

How many sections of your outline you have filled in.

  • Example: "3 / 8 Sections"
  • Use it: To make sure you don't skip planned topics.

4. Traffic Opportunity

Estimated monthly visitors if you reach Page 1.

  • Use it: For motivation. This number reminds you why the work matters.

How to Use These Metrics While Writing

  1. Start Writing: Don't obsess over metrics at the beginning. Focus on getting your ideas down.
  2. Check Midway: Around 1000 words, glance at the Entity Score. Are you in the red? Add missing entities.
  3. Finish Strong: Before marking as complete, ensure:
    • Entity Score is Green (in optimal range).
    • Word Count is 1500+.
    • Outline is Complete (all sections filled).

When You Are Done

Your content is ready when:

  • Entity Score: Green (optimal range)
  • Word Count: 1500+ words
  • Outline Progress: 100% (all sections complete)
  • Quality Check: You are happy with the writing

Remember: These are guides, not laws. If your 1200-word article is brilliant and comprehensive, it's ready.
