And what’s this shocking new number one ranking factor?

– > Click Through Rate (CTR)!

Yes. That’s it! (see meaning on  WikiPedia )

The more people click on your entry on SERPS, the more Google thinks your content is important to its users and this highly affects your ranking as per recent changes in their algorithm.

Think about it for a moment!

If you are not even seen on SERPS, you are not going to have to benefit from this new top ranking factor. However, some SEO experts think it’s going to be easier for most to grab the most admired SERP spot ->  position #1 on page #1 by just doing some simple OnPage SEO adjustments.

So what are you going to focus on next?

2 OnPage SEO points -> Your Page Title and Meta Description

These are the two things people see when they search on Google. The more attractive your titles and description, the more your CTR so you simply have to work on these factors.
