- How does our study compare against others? Lets start by looking at the top 10 results In this graph we see normalised the results in order to compare our curve like-for-like with previous studies. Straight away we can see that there is higher participation beyond the top 4 positions when compared to other studies We can also see much higher CTR for positions lower on the pages which indicates that searchers are more comfortable scrolling below the fold.
- When we look at the entire top 30 we can also see a decent amount of clicks on pages 2 & 3 This means we need to start thinking beyond the top 10! This curve will also give us a better understanding of the potential uplift in visits when improving rankings from positions 11-30 But it’s also important we don’t just rely on one single click curve
- Top 10 Results
- Results 11-20
- Results 21-30
- Brand influence is also something that we need to consider. In particular, How does the size of the brand influence the curve? We banded our each of these domains into small, medium and large categories based on the sum of brand query impressions for each individual site across the entire duration of the study. We can see that better known brands get a sizeable increase in CTR Small to medium sized brands are in fact losing out to results from well established brands. Keyphrase selection will be important for smaller brand. Know where and when to fight your battles
- We also looked at long tail search queries to understand whether query refinement had an impact 1 word searches are likely dominated by larger more well known brands in higher positions so it’s no surprise we can see a high CTR for those types of queries However we can see the highest CTR as primarily for queries with 4 or more words which indicates higher satisfaction as users refine their searches
- Fortunately publishers have a number of options when it comes to optimising the CTR of their content. Page Titles Page titles add meaning and relevance for both human searchers and search engines. Using relevant keywords in page titles are heavily weighted by search engines Page titles should be descriptive and relevant to page content Keep titles under 70 characters (512 pixels) in length, including spaces Include keywords at beginning of title Each page should have a unique title Meta Descriptions Although meta descriptions are not directly used by search engine algorithms they are an important way to influence CTR. It’s therefore vital you write compelling ad copy. Keep under 160 characters in length (including Spaces) Add as many unique selling points as possible Include a clear call to action Add a unique and relevant description for each page Rich Snippets (Schema) A regular snippet displays the sites meta description or automatically generated description of the page content. A rich snippet however, gives more information about a search result such as review information, product name or price. Aggregate star rating for example can really make sure content stand out and influence both CTR and conversion in a positive way. The page content must contain the correct mark-up for search engines to understand the content and display the rich snippet Microdata outlined on Schema.org is the preferred form of mark-up. Google currently supports rich snippets for people, events, reviews, products, recipes, and breadcrumb navigation URL Optimisation Although your URL makes up a relatively small part of the search snippet, it can still be a valuable way to make the snippet stand out to users.
