Is it Better to Be Ranked #10 or #11?

Mar 31, 2008 - 9:55 am 3 by

What would you consider a better scenario? Would you rather be below the fold on page one or above the fold on page two of the search results? If so, why?

The answer may depend on your wants and needs. On DigitalPoint Forums, a forum member is saying that he's getting a lot less traffic in the #10 ranking than in the #11th position.

While few don't see a difference between page 1 and page 2, many say that page one is obviously better. It gives you incentive to work towards ranking even higher on page one. And that should be a goal you shouldn't sit on -- it's a consistent work in progress.
