Travel Blog Diary: Week 23 — More Google Impressions!

Here’s what happened in the twenty-third week of my travel blog journey, where I finally started seeing more impressions from Google search.

Last week I finally figured out how to get my newer pages indexed on Google and Bing. This week I was able to get some insights as a result.

My Chase Sapphire Reserve generated the most impressions on Google last week, with 49 impressions and an average position of 15.7, though it didn’t receive any clicks yet. Interestingly, it barely appeared on Bing with just 1 impression.

On Bing, the post with the most impressions was my SF Bay Area gardens post, with 8 impressions, 0 clicks, and an average position of 4.9. Surprisingly, that same post didn’t show up among the top queries on Google.

We’ll see what happens with more weeks of data.

Final Thoughts

It’s encouraging to see impressions going up, but now the next challenge is turning those impressions into clicks. Come back next week to see if I can increase the CTR!
