SEO SEA strategy
-
Hi, At this time i encounter the next problem as SEO at a retailer. They increased there SEA budget on branded and non branded keywords the generate more traffic on the Adwords campaign. But Now the SEO traffic is decreasing and the SEA traffic is getting bigger and bigger.
Especialy on mobile devices where you only see the adwords link and no organic link without scrolling.
It's also good for the conversion rate, so we have to do this. But i am curious how other SEO's deal with this thing. What will you do to find new sources of organic traffic? Are you using more longtail keywords or low volume or other things. Like to hear from you.
Grtz, Leonie

Hi Monica, i am also not happy with this situation, especialy it's gonna be difficult to reach my kpi's when SEA is performing on SEO's traffic, but i have to find a solution to reach my goals. the conversion rate has changed, 1% less.
what you say: "I cleansed the AdWords account of everything I wanted to rank for organically. As the CTR increased organically the AdWords spend decreased"
Is something i want to do, i told the SEA guy about his, but he said it has no use, but now you write te same i'm gonna do it. Thanks for that!
Grtz, Leonie

Hi Leonie,
I hate organic cannibalization. The company I am working for now had a monthly AdWords spend of 100k and 0 organic rankings. Of course, you need an AdWords campaign, but you shouldn't sacrifice the organic rankings to have a productive campaign.
I cleansed the AdWords account of everything I wanted to rank for organically. As the CTR increased organically the AdWords spend decreased. If the key term is on page 1 organically and paid you will exponentially increase your CTR, however you want to attract those clicks organically because CTR is important to your rankings.
Is the conversion rate higher through paid traffic? Just out of curiosity is the AdWords campaign affecting the conversion rate of organic traffic?

SEMrush Backlink Damaging SEO?
I did a test recently with a sponsored article for some of my products, including my most popular product (https://www.spaceanswers.com/sponsored/sponsored-wear-a-piece-of-the-universe-with-the-space-collectives-meteorite-jewellery/) and it just so happens that recently this very product dropped from 2nd position to 51+, I have since managed to restore it to 6th position but I am wondering if this article is damaging my efforts? SEMrush is showing a page score of 4/100 and a trust score of 3/100, which is obviously very low. Is this helping or hurting my SEO?

Relevant SEO factors
Ive been out of SEO for the last few years and I’m just getting back into it wondering whether meta data and black-lining are still relevant SEO. If not what on page factors should I be looking at.

SEO Question
If you Google - "San Diego DUI Lawyer" (a competitive term), this guys site comes up: sandiegoduiattorneys.weebly.com/san-diego-dui-lawyer.html Run his site in Opensite Explorer and you won't believe the results. This guy somehow has as much domain authority as Facebook, and maybe more than Moz. How is this possible? How is he getting all those links from random Weebly sites? I'm not saying I want to copy him, but I think it's highly problematic that somehow that site has been rigged to get all that link juice. Any feedback would be appreciated.

Ever Get disillusioned with SEO
Many times now we have pushed certain keywords for homepage listings but we have found the traffic levels to be very poor and many cases first page listings turn out to be vanity. The frustrating thing is that sometimes we have to tell some of our SEO customers that in order to get a good market share for there industry they will always have to do google adwords. What are your thoughts on this . Thanks
