Some statistics related to web marketing in Asia(continue)



Upto 45% of daily actions are done by habit, without conscious thought. We don’t initially read the text on the page; we look for matches in the shape of the characters in the query.

Rather than people evaluate all results on the page at once, we first evaluate a single 3-4 items in chunk and move to the next if we don’t find a match. 50% of time, searchers click on results in the first chunk. This is one reason why a number one ranking is less important than people think. If you rank top 3-4 results and have the most compelling title and descriptions, you may win the click over the sites ranking above you.

60% of searchers rely primarily on the title of the result when evaluating whether the click. Searchers don’t even evaluate the entire title – they look primarily at the left half of it. The description displayed under the title and the URL also factor into what a searcher click on. Search engines bold words in all three places that match the query, which can draw a searcher’s attention.

55% of business to business buyers said they would navigate to a site they already knew through search. You can see this trend in the top search terms, nearly all are branded. IF a brand the searcher hadn’t previously considered shows up in results, it is added to a consideration and a brand not listed may be dropped from a consideration set.

When searchers were asked if they remembered seeing brands in the search results, fewer than 30% did if the brand was only in a paid search ad, but nearly 60% did when the bran appeared on top of both paid and organic. Only appear in organic can definitely causes more brand lift.

Seeing a company listed among the top results on a search engine makes me think that the company is a top one within its field. …

Views of online video opportunity continue to increase 41% from august 2008 to august 2009.

62 % of searchers click a result on the first page of results and 90% click within the first 3 pages. Data shows that the first page rankings are even more important, as 90% of clicks within that data set were on the first page of results.
