Search Result Indexing Traffic Test – Update 1

It has been a month since I integrated wordpress search result indexing to Cherez.com, one of my everything/nothing sites. The site currently has only 598 results in the google. 154 of them are from search result indexing. The site can attract more than 3000 uniques due to its highly optimized seo structure eventhough its has a low index count. So, what effect did the wordpress search result indexing have on visitor counts?

Here are the unique visitors counts according the Extreme Counter visible on every page of Cherez.com:

We can actually see a pattern of oscillations in weekly visits forming a sinusoidal shape. One of the reasons could be the fact that Googlebot is actually trying to compare the search result pages to actual content pages and drives different traffic each day. Its still to early to form a proper conclusion.

Like I said in the first of the series, I am going to wait till the index count increases to somewhere around 2000. It should not take long since people do different variety of searches everyday on Cherez.com (which could be very, very nasty)

While checking the logs, I just noticed that two of the single post pages on Cherez.com ranks as number 1 for the search term “britney spears” on google.com.tr. Its above Britney Spears’ wikipedia page and the official site. I think I should congratulate myself for achieving that. :)
