Don’t assume the data hidden in “not provided” was even that valuable to begin with

And it’s never been very scalableUnless you enjoy scouring hundreds of thousands
of phrases for a few gems

@AlanBleiweiss #BlueglassLA
Sometimes “Not Provided” isn’t even the worst fail. “other” can be a lot worse

From 15k organic visits a day to more than 60k visits a day
without the use of granular keyword data

Even smaller sites can still see tremendous annual growth
Without relying on Google Organic Keyword Data

No, I’m not talking about having a

on your site*
*Missy Ward probably has an affiliate link

@AlanBleiweiss #BlueglassLA
Maximum SEO without granular keyword data will only
work if your site is already properly optimized
![Page 13: Alan bleiweiss bgla2012](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070314/554ce9ceb4c905ae138b4652/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
@AlanBleiweiss #BlueglassLA
If your site is anunorganized, chaotic,
poorly optimizedpile of trash
Forget about what I am about to show you.
You have bigger problems
to fix first.

My methods can help only if you
have a well organized site
with discoverable content

Unlearn your organic keyword habit
RememberWhat it was like
Before you Became
Dependent onGranular data

@AlanBleiweiss #BlueglassLA
Remember there’s other data already waiting for you to
make use of

@AlanBleiweiss#BlueglassLA
Look for ways other than Google’s keyword data to determine phrases people find relevant
Google Analytics “In Page Analytics” can reveal areas to improve or remove

@AlanBleiweiss #BlueglassLA
Already have highly converting pages?
Don’t ignore them or rest on your laurels!
Add more pages directly related to them
Do more off-page SEO to keep the momentum going
Use social media to remind people “these are our best products/services”
![Page 22: Alan bleiweiss bgla2012](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070314/554ce9ceb4c905ae138b4652/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
@AlanBleiweiss #BlueglassLA
Highest Visited and/or Stickiest Pages not converting?
Test ways to improve them!
•A/B Test your Call to Action
•A/B Test your content wording and message
•Review the persona the page is targetingIs it your likeliest prospect? Or is it speaking to lookers not ready to buy?
![Page 23: Alan bleiweiss bgla2012](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070314/554ce9ceb4c905ae138b4652/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
@AlanBleiweiss #BlueglassLA
Lowest visited, least sticky, and lowest converting pages
Can they be salvaged? Should they be salvaged?
On your worst performing pages: ask: can you better optimize them or should you 301 to higher value pages?
Remember to evaluate individual pages and then entire sections
![Page 24: Alan bleiweiss bgla2012](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070314/554ce9ceb4c905ae138b4652/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
@AlanBleiweiss #BlueglassLA
Poorly performing pages? Do new keyword research to see if there are better, more appropriate, more relevant phrases
Sometimes phrases that made sense a year ago may no longer be valid
Sometimes a market has learned new ways to describe something
![Page 25: Alan bleiweiss bgla2012](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070314/554ce9ceb4c905ae138b4652/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
@AlanBleiweiss #BlueglassLA
Follow this processAnd you just may get such great results you’ll think you’re in heaven!

@AlanBleiweiss #BlueglassLA
Organic Keyword Data will go away completely
Make use of other data you already have
Track referrer & page title data through to conversion
Examine page visits, stickiness, conversion ratios
Look for opportunities to build on the great, improve the good and fix or scrap the bad
Takeaways:
