Not Getting The Amount of Traffic I should be

TigerRaging · 08-03-2011, 06:50 PM

Hey whats up guys,

I have ranked multiple sites on the first page of google. However, one of my latest sites has an estimate 14k search volume in google.

It is ranked number 2 in google, however it it is getting like 30 people a day. Fortunately this is not the case with my other sites but this is very confusing to me.

Anyone have any input

Is the search volume "exact" match?

The KWT tool reflects an average estimation. Some people believe that running a PPC campaign for the targeted keyword is the only accurate measure you can use to identify the number of searches a keyword receives. I personally disagree with this approach because searches for a specific keyword are dynamic.

There are number of factors that can influence the stats provided by Google. One of them is internet marketers like you and I who serach for our keywords 10x a day to check our rankings

The site in the second position usually receives around 10% of the traffic for a specific keyword. If you can get your site up to the first position your traffic will triple.
