280k pages indexed, 6k Visits per day

relation between indexed pages and refering visitors

[konmicha]

Hi,

my project has like 280k pages indexed in google, and we get like 6k-8k refering visitors per day from google serps. is this a good or normal number, or ist it too low?

what is the relation between indexed pages and refering visitors from google? i have absolutly no idea.

Choose some pages at random and type the keywords they are focused on into a Search Engine. If they don't appear within the first four pages of SERPS then you can't expect to see much traffic.

I would think, from the limited information you have provided, that your web site is on the right track.

I would focus more on conversion rather than volume of traffic. Of the 6-8k visitors from Google, how many are telephoning you for your service or product? Qualified traffic is the best kind of traffic but if they don't convert to sales it is a wasted opportunity (unless of course your webpages are intended to direct the qualified traffic to other web sites because your intent is to get the traffic to click a banner or search engine ad to elsewhere in order to grab a nickel or dime here or there; this is a form of reverse marketing that Internet marketers globally seem to easily profit from, at the expense of innocent people's search engine marketing budgets [but that's another story I suppose]).

Sorry I got off track a bit.

there is little direct correlation between the number of indexed pages and visitors.
i would look at the pages providing 85% of the traffic and look for answers there.

i'm sorry to give you a cliche answer, but it really does depend on how much traffic there is the niche you are marketing to.

I saw some analytics stats for a newspaper today and they have around 65000 indexed pages and get 22-25000 visitors from google per day.

I've even seen 100 page sites get 10k visits per day.
