Google Uses Click Through Rate (CTR)

| | Comments (0) | TrackBacks (0)

Google has presented its latest method of ranking well in the Google's search result page, the click through rate (CTR). I believe many will be happy about Google's latest method. Click through rate is a process which ranks the paid search results, which is why Google decided to use this kind of method.  It was originally exclusively used in regular search results or organic search results. This is a really good system because the more clicks an ad gets, the higher it will be ranked in the search results.

Is it worth it to consider CTR?

The click results from top 10 are all have similar click partners. A certain percentage of web surfers click on the first result, fewer people click on the second result, even fewer people click on the third result, etc.

In general, the distribution of clicks on the different search results is similar for all keywords. For example, the usual number of clicks on results 1 to 10 is from top to bottom. 1 is the top and 10 is the bottom. But if one web page in the search result received an unusually high number of clicks then Google could easily find that out.

Another example, result number 6 receives more clicks than the average number of a number 6 result, so it means result number 6 is appealing to many users for some reason. Google of course wants to return the best and most attractive search results. The more clicks on a search result, Google might decide to give that page a higher ranking on the result pages.  

For this reason, Google would rank eye-catching web pages higher, and at the same time searchers would be happier with the search results. As usual, a website that has good quality content, obtains more benefits.
