    -Be part of a SEO industry experiment -

    Do user statistics (i.e. bouce rate, average time at site, pages visited, etc.) affect search engine results in the major search engines??​


    Help by following these instructions, and after you do, leave a post here and I will send you the report with the results from this study.

    First, follow these steps:
    1.) Visit Google and search for the phrase: Rapid Prototyping
    2.) Find and navigate to the page from Google with the url: metrorp(dot)com (is currently result #11)
    3.) Stay on the home page for over 1 minute, then click to an interior page.
    4.) Stay on this interior page for more than 1 minute, then click to another interior page.
    5.) Stay on this page for more than 1 minute, then you can exit out, or feel free to search and browse longer around the site.

    Then, leave a post in this thread stating you have completed these steps, then I will send you a report with the findings from this experiment. We will be tracking the user stats and SE rankings from Google Analytics over the next couple weeks to see how this will affect the results.

    The more people that participate, the more we will all learn. Tell your friends!​


    Gain valuable information from this study into the insight and minds of Google to see what truly affects the search engine rankings and posistion.

    I currently work for an Indianapolis based web design and SEO firm and we are conducting and hosting this experiment to see how user statstics can affect search engie rankings.

    Please feel free to post any questions or comments you might have regarding this study/experiment.
