The scheduled 16 Aug run stalled and wrote nothing. It hung inside Rybbit metrics collection. This is the catch-up collection, run 19 Aug. The collector completed cleanly on re-run, so the stall was a transient API hang, not a code fault. The 28d window overlaps the baseline by 19 days, so traffic deltas are soft. Conversion and backlink deltas are exact.
Landing-page CTA tracking is now firing. Last week cta_click
had never fired on the three landing pages and all three funnels sat at zero. This week they
carry real numbers. The events are wired and the pages are taking traffic, which closes last
week's open question about whether the tracking was broken.
| Landing page | Sessions | cta_click |
|---|---|---|
| /exclusive-offer | 28 (was 6) | 1 (was 0) |
| /exclusive-access | 22 (was 4) | 4 (was 0) |
| /vip-access | 24 (was 4) | 2 (was 0) |
One contradiction to resolve: these pages are live and taking traffic, but they still sit in
the robots.txt disallow block. Either they are real campaign pages that should not
be disallowed, or they are test pages that should not be promoted. Decide which.
Cumulative since 31 Jan 2026. Weekly movement is the subtraction against last week's snapshot.
| Funnel | Path now | This week |
|---|---|---|
| Purchase Journey | / 8,263 → /pricing 2,942 → /checkout 555 → /welcome 94 | +257 / +125 / +21 / +1 |
| Indicators to Purchase | /indicators 4,465 → /pricing 1,855 → /checkout 381 → /welcome 72 | +181 / +74 / +10 / +1 |
| Exit Popup Capture | popup 619 → captured 47 | +229 / +22 |
Roughly 31 new sessions reached checkout this period and the completion step rose by only 1 to 2. The cumulative end-to-end rate slipped from 1.16% to 1.14%. Whatever breaks at checkout is still breaking, and it is now the most expensive open problem on the account. Deliverable D1 targets exactly this and has not been actioned. Move it to the top.
The indicators path still converts better than the homepage path (1.61% against 1.14%). Point acquisition at product pages. The exit-popup flow works and pulled 22 new captures.
Total backlinks rose 136 to 141, but every one of the four new referring domains is scraper spam. Real authority is unchanged because no partner ask has been sent.

The spammy-domain count climbed from 12 to 16. That is the trigger the baseline set. One week is not a trend, but if next week adds more of these, open a disavow file. Dofollow share edged up to 29.8%. Effective clean dofollow links remain roughly 20.
No partner link landed this week. The two Tier 1 asks are drafted and ready in the 10 Aug deliverables folder. They are the only work that moves real equity, and they need no content.
