Number 1 On Google... Yet No Traffic?

So, I'm just messing around the old net, and I'm checking one of my sites. I wrote an article a while back to promote it, it's just a weebly site at:

How to Make a Girl Moan - Home

I was trying to rank for "how to make a girl moan"

The article is NUMBER 1 in Google. It's been viewed 4261 times.

In the Google Adwords Keyword Tool it is searched for 720/month

In WordTracker: 123/day

I get... maybe 15 a day (and no sales)

Doesn't make a lot of sense to me. Can anyone educate me.

Here is the Google search:

    I thought that might be it, but wouldn't I still get the initial traffic. I realize the content might be different than what the user is looking for, but I just wonder why no traffic...

    Well the term that you are chasing gets around 720 visitors a month which means that it only gets searched for about 24 times a day so the fact that you are getting 15 is about right.

      Actually, that makes sense.

      Well, I changed the entire site, since the term is pretty specific. I think it'll convert better. Let's hope so! Thanks for the input everyone.

    Like Terry, I think if you get 15 visitors a day out of 24, that's a pretty good 63% click rate. Of course, you say you are in first place. However, I don't see your page anywhere in the top 100 either. I don't think your traffic is coming from Google from that search term. I'm sure a bunch of us guys just clicked the link. None of us are coming from Google and likely none of us will buy either.

    Assuming you are on top in Google, I find your description tag "Learn how to get the hottest girls on the planet!" poor. Seems to me that if you want to make her moan, you'd have the girl first. Your description makes one think it's about HOW to get the girl, not the other stuff once you caught her. Cart before the horse kind of thing. The title and description are contradictory.

    But assuming you do get a few hundred visitors a month, how many guys are willing to pay $47 to basically learn how to make love to a woman? I certainly did not learn from a book. I just don't think it's a viable product.

      My site isn't number on in Google, just an article.

      I changed the complete site last night to offers on how to give a girl an orgasm. In Google analytics, I see visitors from search terms such as "how to make a girl moan" and slight variations of that. It's not a big site of mine, but it'd be cool to make some sales.

    I see it. It shows in 3rd here but no matter. The question is, how many click on that article's links to your site? I still don't think many guys would buy it. Your conversion rate will probably be below 1%.

      Seems like a it would be a popular niche. I changed the products, meta tags and header to cater to the crowd that wants to learn how to please girls. And I'm writing a bunch of articles to promote it. I'm getting more clicks on the actual clickbank products, so we'll see how it goes.

  • #1 is also relative to the searcher. Not every query for the same phrase will return the same result. Google is getting better at IP Targeting and using those sneaky cookies they plant to return results.

    How could that happen? You have no traffic? I just don't get it.

      How could what happen? If you have some suggestions that's cool, but if you're just going to be discouraging, you probably shouldn't comment.

      I have very little traffic, but I'm working on promoting the site. That's what you do when a site has very little traffic, you work on promoting it.

      My initial question was based on my shock from finding an article I'd written a long time ago at the top of Google. I realize now that it didn't match the theme of my site, therefore, I changed the theme of my site.

    The good thing is that your site is visible and customers can find it easily.

      It would be a lot better to work on traffic as well. I think you have to learn to promote it more to users who can relate more to it.

    > long tailed keywords are very easy to rank but it has less traffic.

    True, but I think he's doing the right thing to target such a phrase. He's targeting better quality traffic and that converts better. Quality, not quantity.

    you say you get about 15 clicks a day,so that would make it about 450 clicks a month.The monthly search volume is 750.That is a high CTR and definitely is good.
    However,if you are not getting any sales then there must be something wrong with your landing page.
