Abstract
Search engine optimization SEO is one of the most important topics today. Search Engine Optimization is considered an essential part of e-marketing or digital marketing techniques. All companies and foundations compete to make their websites get a high rank in the search engine. Getting a high rank means getting more visitors, subscriptions, and interactions. Subsequently, SEO helps companies to achieve more success and money. Therefore, measuring the SEO rank of a website is a critical issue. In previous work, authors propose some metrics to measure the SEO rank. However, these metrics didn`t cover the most critical factors that help assess the rank accurately. This paper proposes a novel metric called Total-Rank (TR) by adding more critical factors. This metric not only depends on on-page factors but also considers off-page factors. In addition, some novel factors have been added. The results ensure that the proposed TR outperforms the previous metric.

Keywords
SEO, Search engine optimization, Ranking factors, Digital marketing, E-business.
