Direct answer
Ecommerce SEO reporting should connect discoverability to an eligible, purchasable catalog and agreed business outcomes. Revenue alone hides out-of-stock demand, returns and margin; sessions alone hide purchase quality. Report a decision chain from demand and visibility through landing quality, cart/checkout outcomes and net commercial result, with constraints annotated.
Key takeaways
Define product/category/market cohorts; organic source rules; product eligibility and stock states; impressions/clicks; landing/search behavior; add-to-cart, checkout and purchase definitions; gross/net revenue; cancellations/returns; margin access; attribution model; feed/site discrepancies; currency/tax handling; owner and annotations.
Search Console's Performance report provides impressions, clicks and page/query data that can be joined with analytics and ecommerce systems to build a measurement cohort.
Compare like-for-like cohorts and annotate assortment or feed changes. Do not infer SEO causality from a before/after line without considering demand, campaigns, inventory, site releases and measurement changes.
Organic clicks fall while net revenue rises because low-margin discontinued products were retired. The report shows both effects and the catalog-state change instead of calling the period simply a win or loss.

No. Revenue alone hides out-of-stock demand, returns and margin. It should be reported alongside eligible-catalog visibility, checkout quality and annotated constraints.
Yes. For example, retiring low-margin discontinued products can lower organic clicks while raising net revenue — both effects and the catalog-state change should be shown together.
No. Before/after comparisons should account for demand, campaigns, inventory, site releases and measurement changes before any causal claim is made.
