Comment on Organic and PPC Attractiveness: two new metrics for a scientific SEO strategy by Bora

Organic and PPC Attractiveness are a very good and interesting concept.

But the article is missing one key ingredient – Keyword Relevancy. Deleting entirely irrelevant keywords is important, but the next step is to rate which keywords are most likely going to make money or whatever the sites goal.
Some keywords are directly on it, while others just related and only a part of the searchers will be interested in the kind of products/services your site offers.

I recommend multiplying the traffic volume by a factor (e.g. 100% for directly searching what you have to offer and 50% kind of related) to get the potential buyer volume.
This can quickly change the top targeted keywords.

PS: Don’t try to make perfect estimates. Some rough guessing will do.

“why do you split 8s” is a question about the basic strategy of playing blackjack. You always split a pair 8s but it doesn’t intuitively feel right in some cases, although the mathematics of the game support it.

If it helps, splitting 8s is related to blackjack basic strategy. Combined you have 16, but you’re allowed to split them and play two hands (requiring an equal bet on your “new” hand). You hope for two face cards to make 18 on each or aces, but whatever you get is a better option than what you started with (even another 8, if they allow to split that again). it’s so basic you have to wonder about this person being allowed to have real money in the first place.

Splitting 8s pertains to the card game blackjack

We see a lot of weird longtail too
