hey all ,

How should a site be assessed to know whether it is successful as far as search engine rankings are concerned?

What is considered a good ranking?

thanks

Hi,
A successful site is one that ranks high enough for its chosen search
terms that it gets sufficient visitors to achieve the objective that you
had in setting up the site in the first place.

Search engine success is defined differently by each individual. There's no standard. Getting site listed under the keywords that are being used to find sites is a major success.

For my radio site, I really don't care where it ranks. My audience is mostly Winthrop students who will hear about the site from something other than Google. I'm focusing more on keeping the site up to date with the show. Hopefully traffic in one place will help the other.

I guess it all depends on if you want to get a lot of people. My advertising will be mostly offline methods. Search engines just don't matter to me.
