Hey there everyone. I hope everyone had a great Christmas and celebrated on new years. Here is to a big 2024
I have a question in regards to optimising the search term report and how I am excluding good search terms by accident when using filters.
Let's say we use a filter to find all search terms with zero conversion ( leads ), that is easy enough to do and Google will populate a bunch I can then select all and exclude. However when you look back over data I am finding good search terms have been excluded because, even though a search term showed up in the filter for zero conversions, that doesn't mean that same search term didn't generate leads for another keyword.
Perfect example using the screenshot below. The same search term has fired for 3 different keywords and produced different results.
- The top search term actually produced revenue ( All conversion value )
- The second search term only produced leads ( Conversions )
- The bottom search term produced nothing
So in this case if I were to filter search terms by having zero conversions ( leads ) this search term "rental properties near me" would come up when in fact it is a decent keyword I would keep running for now.
How do you do go through your search term reports? The only way I have found to work is going line by line and searching the search term in another tab ( like I have i the screenshot ) to get the overall results from the entire search term and then make a decision from there. The massive problem with this is the endless search terms that populate in the report, this takes some time.
Any suggestions?
Thanks Epocks
