One of my sites was ranking at 10th position for a phrase keyword, not broad or exact keyword. The phrase keyword has 3600 monthly searches, today I got ranked at #6. But no traffic yet. What is the matter? (#27 for exact search)
#6th #position #traffic

    I would guess the problem is that you're number 27 for exact search

    3600 monthly searches might be a bit low.

    The keyword you chosen very low searches. Atleast the keyword should have 50000 above searches to get normal traffic to your site.

    you will get max 30-50 visits per day from 3600 exact searches only if yo rank 1-2 stops.

    What do you mean #27 for the "exact search"?

    When you do a Google search, you can either do a broad match (without quotes) or phrase match (with quotes) search.

    What are the exact global monthly search figures for your keyword?

      I think I know what you are trying to say but its actually impossible to do anything else but an exact match and phrase search at Google.com. Broad is only something that can be seen in the keyword tool because it pulls back data on multiple searches but a single person can really only do one exact match at a time well unless they use operators which very few people do.
      For the OP

      Your phrase search isn't the same as exact but even if you were getting 3600 a month that would be 120 a day and the traffic at 6 would still be low. Like around 5-7% of the 120 so like 6 a day and that doesn't mean it comes in regularly. It can come in spurts. Days without anything and say a "spike" on certain days averaged out for the month.
