Size Matters?

[Nightwing]

Buongiorno from 19 Degrees C partially cloudy Wetherby UK

In the SEO game I have a number of revolving door issues. The biggest of all is the C word...Content Clients reluctance to ad contnet despite the best explanation Matt Cutts could ever provide gives my my bum a migraine.

After a while i start to feel like the ever frustrated primary teacher who despite his most valiant efforts just cant get the kids to do their homework. ( And no im not out sourcing content needs )

So now i have thought about a different tactic and that tactic is too demonstrate the growth or lack of content of their site over time . I do have WEB ceo which measurs pages indexed but my question is please:

"How do you quantitatively measure the growth of a site in terms of page volume over time"

Grazie tanto,
David

Well, having more and more content over time will 100% lead to more traffic since you'l targer a larger and larger audience.

I find it easier in terms of getting traffic to create more content than to hyper-optimise/target a few pages.

The growing Analytics traffic curve is enough, I think.

I'm not sure if this is really what you need, but you can try with siteliner.com (free service from Copyscape). Their reports show page averages - size in Kb and number of words - and also details for each of the pages checked.

Unfortunately this service is limited to 500 pages per site and I found no way to export reports.
But if no one comes up with a better suggestion maybe this can help.
