Hey,

So.. This is my number 100 post, and i wan't to share something with you guys - it's not actually an advice, but something to think about for sure! I read and commented on a thread the other day, and come to think about: Hey... I have a website which is ranked 8 for 3 different keywords/keywordphrases (the thread was about ranking-ctr's), and I'm quiete happy about this, but then I thought.. Hey, if I was number 1 for these 3 keywords, how much would my income STATISTICALLY grow/gain?

I have calculated on this... A LOT!

My website is right now recieving 25 visitors per day on average
My website is earning about $4,17 per day on average

This is $125,1 per month for 750 visitors on average (this is adsense, and I'm happy enough)..

Now.. I told you that my website is ranking EXACTLY number 8 for 3 keyword-phrases, which is lucky, because this makes my calculations a lot easier..

Now take a look at this graph:



Now as you can see.. This graph tells me that I should STATISTICALLY recieve about 2,91% of the visitors searching for my phrases.. Now the number one spot recieves 56,36% of the visitors!

remember, these are not exact numbers, and can swing because of the Meta title, meta description, and how the link looks! Is the title catchy, you could recieve more visitors, is the title messed up, you could recieve less, and this goes for the description, and the link to.

Anyway.. I recieve roughly 2,91% of the visitors searching for the phrases. Look at this little calculation:

56,36 / 2,91 = 19,37.. My income should STATISTICALLY gain 1937%.. So while I'm earning $125,1 per month now! I could.. With a bunch of SEO be able to earn stunning $2423,19 per month! I have researched my phrases and competitors, and actually.. I think that if I put 100-120 hours in these phrases and this site - I would be able to rank number 1 for each phrase!

I KNOW that I can't trust this entirely, but it sure can boost my income! Right now I'm bashing a bunch om micro-niche sites up, but now I can see that I actually could just own 8-10 websites to recieve the exact same income!

There will be more work with the big sites, no doubt about it - but still! Even if I just used a couple of hours per day the next week or so I could increse my positions, and therefore my income!

This was just a reminder - I hope that you guys can use it! Because what more motivation do you need? A bunch of hot chicks jumping around in a Ferrari (nude?).. Hehe.. Oh well.. If you liked it, you can thank me, or don't.. That's up to you..

Any comments on this ?

Best Regards,
Wi

    Congratulations on your success and sharing your knowledge.

    A good idea is showing a couple of adsense links between your articles. Not over doing it of course. But a excellent call to action method

        Hi Wi,

        While you could get 8-10 more websites, why not just add some pages to your existing website that are optimized for another 25-30 keywords? Less work, less expense, same income.

        Surely their must be hundreds of long tail phrases that you could rank for on the same website. In doing so you will likely build more authority for your niche which could help you get many #1 positions, boosting your income even more.

          How did you calculate the numbers in your graph? Assume a normal distribution? What else? Thanks.
