Post Rank back up! Analyzing Analytics

12
5.4K followers

My post rank is back up to 32 today! That is a great improvement over 57 yesterday. I am not sure why it tanked just a day or two after posting it and I am not sure why it is back up so fast. It could be due to all the great traffic and comments I received. I enjoyed reading them and returning the favor of commenting on other's sites. I met some interesting people!

It could also be due to my editing and telling Google to re-fetch it. Who knows. It could just be chance as Google works its magic with the rankings of a new post!

In any case I am happy!

I am also happy to see how much my traffic is up the last few days. Looking at the last few months of traffic in Google Analytics, I can see just what a waste it was to spend so much time on Twitter! I received very little traffic from it. In the time I spent I could have written many new posts and had this kind of traffic all along! So, I am totally convinced that spending time on creating content for our sites (with excellent keywords of course) and exchanging comments is the best use of my time. If you are spending a bunch of time on social media and not getting traffic or getting traffic but no sales, I would suggest you re-focus on adding new posts to your site instead and go on Site Comments or the WA comments thread and give that a try instead.

Go forth and conquer the web friends!

Well done, Jessica.

You are so dedicated, results will come for you.

John

Thanks John. Now the more recent post I did is suffering the same precipitous drop in rank like the last one...maybe it is just a normal fluctuation a few days after posting.

That's great to hear Jessica. I haven't seen much from Twitter either as far as results but I'm fairly new to it.

Yes, I have about 900 followers now...still not much traffic to my site, though I get lots of people looking and liking my posts.

Great Jessica .. Cheers, William.

Thanks William

Good advice Jessica, it seems to be about that evaluation and monitoring investing time where there is the best return is the better investment every time.

Yes, thanks!

Congratulations on the improved ranking

Thank you.

Awesome Jessica! Happy for you! Thanks for the great tips. Reminds me... I just published what I consider to be my best work so far and I haven't fetched as google yet! Oops!

On which site? I will check it out this weekend.

On my new one, laurenkinghorn. Thanks Sweets. Just took your advice and fetched as google. Now... where to check ranking? Am never sure.

I use http://www.whatsmyserp.com
It isn't totally accurate but apparently none of them are. I find that if I click the green circular arrow again and make it reload I may get a slightly different rank. I don't know why. So take it with a grain of salt.

Right now it says my natural cat food post (the one I was assessing the fall and rise for) is ranked 28. When I go to Google and open an icognito window it I find it in position 31. It is pretty close and much better than some of the other free serp checkers.

You can tell it to add another line and add more of your post titles one by one. I have a bunch of them all on there. Everytime I go back to whatsmyserp they are still set up and they show what the last rank was the last time you checked and it shows what the highest rank was. So when you go back days or weeks later you can refresh each one (first refresh the whole page with your arrow at the top left of your screen, then refresh each search you are interested in by clicking the green arrow next to it) and see how the rank has risen or fallen or stayed the same.

Thanks so much Jessica. I'll test it out now.

That's terrific Jessica. You're a great accomplisher!

Ha ha! Thanks Mike!
