ok i targeted the keyword job lot i did this using (exact) filter when searching and also the country filter (uk)it gets 135.000 local search volume i am now coming top for the keyword job lot and also i come top and second for job lots which has a local search volume of 75.000 combine the two and this should be around 200.000 yet i am only getting between 90 and 150 page impressions a day i have a very respectable ctr of around 40% which i think is fantastic if i just had the visitors that i thought i should be getting i was told i should be getting around 70% of the visitors but this seems a bit high to me 50% would do lol any help would be appreciated in working out why my page impressions are so low and what they should really be according to adsense figures. i mean can adsense be that far out 3.500 page impressions a month from a 200.000 search volume
sorry should of said i am talking about the google keyword tool i searched on keyword tool and got the stats above using exact filter and country set to united kingdom so how come im only getting 3.500 page impressions a month from a 200.000 search volume
Wondering if you are more concerned about calculating figures and keywords than providing content. A website with ads and keywords is not enough to generate clicks if there is no real content for potential visitors, not just search engines.
why cant someone answer a simple question every time some smart arse has to yabber on about content i targeted a keyword i am now coming top for this keyword so from my point of view job done what i am dissapointed with is the keyword tool i used dosent seem to be accurate because if so surely i would get more than 3 thousand page impressions from 200.000 how is you jibbering on about content answering my question its nothing to do with my question and a stupid reply because i am top for my keyword so everything you have said is Irrelevant
I'm afraid that your statistics are "wrong"... They are not actually wrong but when you are considering traffic figures you should also check the trends. If you do you will see that about 90% of the traffic for this keyword occurs in January and February. Still your numbers seem low but that's the only problem I have found looking into your problem... You should probably expect your traffic to increase over time but 70% is tooo optimistic...
thanks dj i understand what you are saying and you are right come april and may the search volume will come down but where i am confused is it says for this month just gone (march) 135.000 search volume so as far as im aware my site should of shown up 135.000 times but only clicked just over 3000 my maths aint that good but i think its someething like a 1 in 70 ratio just dosent make sense
Usually the top ranking for a keyword gets you 20-40% of the search traffic for that keyword. When you say you are coming first for the keyword are you searching with quotes or without?
