It's all about targeting the right keywords. Sadly it is an area that lots of people get wrong and then are left wondering why they don't have traffic.
However you are promoting a niche product, so you don't have to compete on the really big terms. You've done well on the villa terms - maybe start down another seem next: maybe luxury accommodation.

Thank you Mat for clarification.
Now I see how it goes per keywod tool of google and am not sure now what to target at all in my SEO to get the clicks . At the end GA tells the truth and I have not targeted good keywords even am targeting strong keywords and for example amalfi coast villas or sardinia villas but there is not guarantee that I will get clicks .
Can you tell me ones more please. How can I get real organic search resuts for particular keyword just as you promote on the picture you sent me . Thanks

See the attached image.
Broad match searches are 4400. Phrase match are 73. Exact match are 36.
Broad match is useful if you are doing PPC, but less so for organic search. In short they are saying that:
36 searches a month are match for "switzerland villas"
73 searches a month are made for phrases containing "switzerland villas"
4400 searches a month are made for phrases that google thinks are related to "switzerland villas". That might include "swiss hotels" for all we know.
As I said - it is VITAL to understand what those numbers represent if you are doing your own SEO work.

Thanks but dont get it simple as I am going on google keyword tool and it tells me global search is 4400 and not 73. Local Gb search is 1300. I do understand it is a phrase and it can be and switzerland villas and villas in switzerland villas switzerland but on all am in first 5 .
I dont get where you get this results of global search for this term 73 global monthly searches as I per google see differente as above?
Thanks
-
Sorry - that just isn't a great phrase. As a phrase match "Switzerland villas" only has 73 Global monthly searches. As an exact search [Switzerland villas] has just 36. Although kwt estiates are never particularly accurate at small numbers, you are not going to get more clicks than there are searches.
The broad match numbers are not really relevant if you are focusing on the organic term.
I'd broaden the phrases you are targeting. Chalets would seem to be a word with more potential for Switzerland.
-
does it means that is nothing if i have keyword switzerland villas or villas switzerland with search 4400 global and GB 1300, on the 3-7 position on .com and Uk google cant get not even a 100 cliecks a month for ?
-
Looking just at that first key term: (initials cdav). keyword tool shows 210 GLOBAL searches on a broad match. <10 on local. However switch that to a phrase match and it is <10 on global.
That means that any traffic from that term is a good thing. It just is not a busy phrase.
When doing keyword research it is absolutely vital that you understand the difference between broad, phrase and exact match.
I doubt that is the answer you were hoping for, but I hope it helps none the less. I would start researching additional terms.

sent per PM . Thanks
-
Can you share the keywords (by PM if not publicly)
-
I dont know . Its results by SEOMOZ. The keywords are good ..but simpple dont understand why isnt it shown as well and on the GA
Thanks for clarification
-
There are really 3 possible causes.
- You aren't ranking as well as you think you are
This is probably the least likely, but depending on how you are checking results you might not be ranking as well as you think. If you are using seomoz rank checker you can ignore this one. - Your click through rate in the results isn't good
Best way to check this is through Google Webmaster Tools. That will show you your CTR in the organic results. It could be that your snippet just isn't engaging people - They keywords you are targeting aren't as busy as you thought
The most common reason for this that I see if that people base their traffic expections on "broad match" in the keywords tool.
Hopefully that will start you off in the right direction.
- You aren't ranking as well as you think you are

Lots of 404s listed in Top Pages by Page Authority
Hi guys, I'm slowly getting to grips with all the aspects of using Moz.
Moz Pro | | giddygrafix
Looking at my link analysis, under the tab labelled Top Pages by Page Authority, there's an awful lot of 404 pages listed. Are these pages which are being linked to (either internally or externally), and should I put a 301 redirect on all the pages listed? I've attached a picture... moz-screen-shot.jpg0 -
Remove geographic modifiers from keyword list
I just pulled a search term report for all of 2013 from my PPC account. What I got was 673,000 rows of terms that have garnered at least 1 impression in 2013. This is exactly what I was looking for. My issue is that the vast majority of terms are geo-modified to include the city, the city and state or the zip code. I am trying to remove the geographic information to get to a list of root words people are interested in based on their search query patterns. Does anyone know how to remove all city, state and zip codes quickly without having to do a find and replace for each geo-modifier in excel? for example, if i could get a list of all city and state combinations in the US and a list of all zip codes, and put that list on a separate tab and then have a macro find and remove from the original tab any instances of anything from the second tab, that would probably do the trick. Then I could remove duplicates and have my list of root words.

Finding all search terms/keywords
Hi everyone! Is there a report I can run on SEOMoz that will show all of the search terms that people are using to find my site? I want to analyze where I am doing well and where I can use some work, but I'd like to have that as a starting point. Thanks in advance!

Keyword difficulty always high
HI there, I'm new here and am just getting used to the keyword difficulty tool. I've noticed that just about every keyword phrase I type in, including ridiculous ones such as "perspex underpants" or "guy debord's shoes" all have a difficulty well over 50% and many over 60%. It makes little difference what my phrase is. Am I doing something wrong perhaps? How am I to interpret this result? It would seem to suggest that It is always very hard to rank, even for a rare and ridiculous phrase.

What is the difference between the Rank Tracker and the On-page Optimization page?
Both of them track keywords. In the Rank Tracker, you add each keyword manually and you associate it with a URL. For On-page Optimization page, the URLs are generated automatically based on searches and traffic?
