How to 2x your organic CTR (real SEO breakdown):
I recently took a uSERP client from 167,000 organic clicks in 6 months to 1,000,000+ the following 6 months. That resulted in...
One of the biggest questions I got: How do you increase CTR now that Google shows a bunch of SERP features that incentivize people not to click? Increasing your SEO click-through rate is all about (a) ranking position (b) copywriting. The first ~5 ranking positions in organic search get the lions share of clicks. But even within the top 5, if Google has SERP features in the way, your CTR can decline. However, you can boost your CTR with good copywriting. To increase organic CTR, you need to focus on writing better titles. On differentiating your piece of content from the sea of regurgitated junk. What unique differentiatior can you tap into? Put yourself in the shoes of the searcher. When they search for something, what else do they think of? What's the main problem they are trying to solve? And how can you craft a title that instantly addresses that? Example: I want to find the best AI copywriting tool. Which headline will I click on?
Probably option 2. A huge pain point or fear of AI tools is that they can't replicate authentic writing. Get creative. Stop using boring, keyword stuffed headlines. Appeal to what people actually want to solve or learn or get when they click. Calling yourself the best tool = broke. Tackling objections before they even click = woke. -Jeremy |

"Unique root domains" are destroying your SEO....Here's why:SEOs have become way too obsessed with "unique root domains" for link building."We don't want a link from there, we already have one!"This is dead wrong. It's outdated advice.I've built links for 400+ brands and have droves of internal data on what works for MANY companies, not just one site where you can't separate correlation vs causation...Getting multiple unique root domains (individual websites) linking back to you is...
How to forecast SEO costs, time to rank, and return on investment: Ask yourself these 7 questions...1. Is it possible to rank for this in 3, 6, or 12 months?2. If I rank top 3, what is the CTR from organic search / expected clicks? 3. How fast do I need a positive ROI here, or is this a long-term (1-3 year) play?4. Is the intent to buy (faster ROI), or just get information (long-term)? 5. What is the CPC of this keyword / what are people bidding?6. How much will it cost to write/build out...
Today you’ll learn to accurately predict SEO success or failure, before spending a single dime. Sound good? Cool, read on: Most SEO initiatives fail due to unrealistic expectations. Meaning they don’t actually fail. They just aren’t given enough time to succeed, or prioritization goes out the window for shiny objects. “We want to rank for XYZ keyword that our competitor has been ranking for, for the last 5 years, in the next 6 months!” This isn’t a strategy. It’s a goal, but it doesn’t help...
