#9 Traffic > #7 Traffic

Hey guys well the strangest thing happened to me today.

My arcade is on the first page of google for the term Free Online Games. Well recently it's been moving back and forth, back and forth. For the longest time before, I was #7, averaging around 1500 hits per day. Well after the SERPs shakeup I kind of slipped a couple... to #9 to be precise. The #9 position on google is bringing in x2 more than what I was getting at #7!!! 3000 visits!!!

My earnings on my arcade went from $20 on average per day (mind you day), to right now at $40 and it's only 5:40PM!

So ya, I guess it pays off not being in the middle of the pack. hehe.



Best Regards

 

I get the opposite results when I bounce down in results =/

 

Well when I was at #7-#6 I was in the middle of the pack just hiding. But now i'm #9 I kind of stand out.

 

And to be honest with you, I assume that number #10 will bring you even more traffic.
Hapened to me before. #11 was better than #6 or #7... First one on second page or last one on first... it's a featured.

 

That's quite an achievement; you must have an awfully high CTR to be generating such an income!

 

It's pretty high, but I believe Google won't allow me to tell. hehe.

 

Best postions are #1,2,3,9,10,11,12,20

 

good for you. lucky guy.

 

very good kw, congratulations on that.

 

$48 as of 7:50PM

I made a boo-boo, the reason my money is shooting up is because a site linked to one of my games not from the keyword.

Ohhh so embarrassing. But I am still getting more traffic from #9 as I did at #7

 

Good to know this human psychology.

 

it's intresting to read.

is your site come back to the original place?

 

Yes, it's best to hold all of those positions

 

Possible Just have your inner pages occupy those positions

 

It could be too that some of your inner pages have moved up. But here is some click through data for the top 10

Ranking Number 1 receives 42.1 percent of click throughs.
Ranking Number 2 receives 11.9 percent of click throughs.
Ranking Number 3 receives 8.5 percent of click throughs.
Ranking Number 4 receives 6.1 percent of click throughs.
Ranking Number 5 receives 4.9 percent of click throughs.
Ranking Number 6 receives 4.1 percent of click throughs.
Ranking Number 7 receives 3.4 percent of click throughs.
Ranking Number 8 receives 3.0 percent of click throughs.
Ranking Number 9 receives 2.8 percent of click throughs.
Ranking Number 10 receives 3.0 percent of click throughs.

 

Interesting data. Where'd you get this from?

 

Same question here, from what source you took it from. Numbers don't look totally right.

 

It came from the leaked AOL documents, why don't the numbers look right to you?

 

5 minutes of work wasted right here

FFMG

 

the numbers look right and its on par with what I've experienced with my sites and sites I work on
