5 Facts Reveal Why Top Rankings in Google Drive Sales...
& Why SEO is Crucial to Your Success
When someone realizes they have a problem and need to find a solution, or want to improve, remove or fix something, what’s the first thing they do? They “Google it” of course…
The act of searching Google is now so automatic, it’s become a colloquial verb for finding answers! It’s little wonder then that Google is the single biggest source of ‘looking to buy now’ leads in the world.
So where is Google currently sending everyone searching for the things YOU offer? To your highest ranking competitors of course! But wouldn’t it be better if Google sent them to you?
Rise above your competition and beat them where it counts, in Google!
According to figures released on the 24th of May 2016 by Google, their search engine handles “at least 2 Trillion searches per year”. Bear in mind, this was their first update on search volumes in four years, and when this number was statistically analysed by mathematicians at Search Engine Land, they extrapolated Googles claims as follows:
Searches per second: 63,000
Searches per minute: 3.8 million
Searches per hour: 228 million
Searches per day: 5.5 billion
Searches per month: 167 billion
Searches per year: 2 trillion. (at least)
These are mind mindbogglingly numbers, and they are probably conservative, because they are based on Google making an “at least” statement. You can check out the statistics and the way they were extrapolated for yourself here
