SEO - Re-Adjusting the Most Common SEO Metrics And Goal Orientated Mistakes

By Murtaza Habib

Submitted On May 09, 2014

"For internet marketers that are following their campaigns, the tedious waiting period between measurable SERP jumps can lead to the tendency to over-analyze.

This reaction can get further compounded by the immense amount of metric and reporting tools we have at our disposal. When someone gets too jumpy, it can be easy to read into metrics the wrong way and start second-guessing one's self.

This can lead to bad decisions that alter an otherwise solid SEO campaign. In order to avoid this, there are a few adjustments that you should make to common metric mindset mistakes.

The following are some of the most common misuses and misreadings of popular metrics.

If you're guilty of any of these, consider trying something different on at least one of your campaigns and measuring your results. Chances are, you'll be surprised at what you see:

- Ranking

Ranking is an extremely tough metric to look at because in the end, you do want to get ranked the highest. We all know that the top spot in SERPs gets the most traffic, but we also know that getting there is extremely tough-without paying.

Don't fall victim to the lure of the dark side. Stay away from Link Farms and other autonomous services provided by the SEO companies.

Only become a sponsored link on a search engine if you need fast results-they won't last long, but they will make you look good on a quick report. Slow and steady wins the race, so try not to pay too much attention to your rank.

Overall, your ranking will always fluctuate based on the user's search history, social media connections and location-you can't win them all so don't try.

- Amount of links

Links play a large part in determining a site's quality in the eyes of a search engine's crawl, but paying too much attention to the number of links you have can be a bad thing.

It used to be that the more links, the better, but that's not the case any longer. After the Penguin update, Google changed the game for good. Unnatural looking link profiles get penalized nowï€ as the focus has shifted from quantity to quality.

One solid, strategically placed link that is useful to the user is worth ten average links.

- Success with broad keyword

Broad keywords are the most searched so can be very enticing to website and business owners who don't know much about SEO. They see a word that everyone is searching for and don't think about how competitive it is.

Measuring success on broad keywords is going to be a losing battle and if you don't explain this to your clients, you're going to be out of work soon. It takes years to turn anything around on a broad keyword, let alone see traction in the SERPs. Target some campaigns on long tail keywords and really go after your niche.

You'll see improvements sooner rather than later.

The bottom line here is that you want to stay patient and look for metrics where you are showing improvement. Capitalize on these and your other metrics will start to show the same upswing.
