How do I find the best converting keywords
-
I rank decently on local search for some of my keywords but find that the traffic coming to my site is not from those keywords. I also find that they never convert to sales queries.
Is someone able to help me out with that?
Thanks
My domain is www.hykano.com

comp? competitive?
We are doing well on web design business durbanbut just not getting conversions.

Hey Nigel, that's exactly what I would like to do... just not too sure how. there is tons of opportunity, I just need to find out how to get in there.
I'm in Durban, South Africa which is even more niche and full of opportunity!!
Really appreciate your help!

Have you conducted a keyword research for the keywords that do have a traffic in your region?
You can select South Africa as a location in Google Traffic Estimator. Perhaps it's worth looking in there for some opportunities? It seems there is some traffic for the long tail phrases surrounding website desginers?

Hey Nigel, My biggest problem here in South Africa is that our traffic numbers are so low. I only get about 200 visits a month if that. Some are on the keywords I like and some are on some really long-winded arbitrary ones. I really feel like I'm flying a little blind here...

Hi Simon,
Do you have analytics tracking set up for your website? This will be the easiest way of working out which keywords are currently converting but have low traffic so you can focus your efforts on those.
In order to find these keywords you will need to go to Traffic Sources > Keywords. These will be split into paid and non-paid. The non-paid will be displaying the organic searches that are sending traffic, with ecommerce tracking set up correctly you'll be able to see which keywords are converting.
In terms of keywords that you are not currently ranking for but you wish to see the conversion rates for, this is quite difficult as conversion rates will vary from site to site. It is therefore difficult to produce a global list.
Hope this was of some help!

Find archived sitemap of a website that no longer exists
I am trying to figure out the site structure of a website and the urls of all the pages. Normally this would be easy but a couple of months ago the website went down and I don't think it will ever come back. Any help would be appreciated.

Competitor research: No data / results displaying on Keyword tools, Aexa
Hi there! I'm trying to research a few competitors using various Keyword tools (SEM Rush, Compete, Keyword Spy -- even Alexa for high level insight). While the bulk of the competitors generate expected results through these tools (a smattering of their top organic and paid search keywords, some traffic estimations through Alexa), ONE of these competitors lists "No results" across all categories and all tools: http://www.bgstar.ca Despite this, we know that they invest heavily in search -- and my SEM Rush toolbar indicates that they have a Google PR of 5 (though I recognize that that should be taken with a grain of salt). So I'm stumped! Has anyone encountered this before? Is there something structural that they might be doing, that's blocking not only Google-based platforms, but Alexa too? Thanks for your help!

How much keyword density for Google?
I have several pages on one site which have gone down during the past few months. They keyword density on those pages, which is not unnatural, pleased Google for many years. it still pleases Bing. But Google now seems very picky. Based upon your experience, what is the ideal % keyword density for 2 and 3 word phrases, and should they be left out of alt tags even when proper to put them there? While Google dominates, we do not wish to alienate BIng/Yahoo. It is a huge mystery, and experimentation with more non-keyword-related text has so far not born any fruit. Thank you, GH

How to compare my pages with a Keyword Difficulty Report
I'm very new to SEO, but know just enough to be dangerous. I've run my first full KWD report and formatted the results per Jordan Judson's blog post. Now I'd like to compare how related pages on my site compare to these results. Unfortunately I can't figure out how to accomplish this task. Any guidance would be very much appreciated. Thanks, Steve
