Position 1 Ranking on Google Vs. Pos 2
Backlinks – What Links Means to Your Traffic
Two guys are walking across a large treeless field, when they see a mad bull running full tilt towards them…
Frantically, one of the guys puts on his running shoes.
Surprised, the other guy asks “Do you think you can outrun a bull?!?”
“I don’t have to outrun the darn bull,” says the guy, “I just need to outrun you.”
This is very much the not-so-pretty reality of ranking on Google and using our quality back-linking SEO strategy.
It's war, it's Your bottom line.
All you need is to be just a little better than your competition, in order to knock them out of the top search engine positions you want to grab for yourself.
Remember, there is no such thing as the “perfectly search engine optimised” website, or a “perfect SEO strategy” – there is always something more you can do; Like getting more backlinks, posting more keyword targeted and content rich content to your site.
Consider the following…
When you run a Google search, you get served the Google page 1 rankings – the top 10 search results.
The Organic Search Result you see in position number 2 can be expected (On average) to get 21% of traffic, especially if well optimized in it's title, description, URL etc.
That sounds high, but did you know that the first result can be expected to get 42% of all search traffic for your keyword?
This is a huge difference of double the organic traffic…
So what’s the difference in effort needed to rank higher? Does a site which ranks number 1 in Google need to do twice the work of the second ranking site?
Not at all!
Actually, the site that is in second position in search might be equal in almost every aspect to the site in first position:
- the same PageRank
- the same domain age
- the same on-page search engine optimization (SEO) factors, such as keywords in title and meta tags, alt tags etc
The difference could be something as small as one tiny little better-quality-backlink on the #1 site, than the ones the site ranking in the number 2 position has.
Imagine! Just one QUALITY link more!
Remember:
One good link could mean the difference between 42% of traffic and 21% of traffic…
Which means twice (or half) as many visitors, opt-ins and sales for your site.
