Recent surveys have reported that 80% of online searchers do not actually go beyond the first page of Google. This means that if you are not ranking on the first page, the chances of getting traffic (and thus customers finding your web site) is dramatically reduced.

In addition, with increasingly sophisticated web users, online search behavior has also changed. Results from the 'Think Eyetracking' study shown here highlight these differences. Unlike search behavior in 2005, online searchers in 2008 focused primarily on the top 5 results on the first page, with the most clicks going to the top 3 ranking sites. 

These findings are supported by a Cornell University study which found that the top 3 Google results get 79% of all clicks.

These statistics show the critical importance of knowing how to use search engine optimization to get to the top of Google's search results.

Business owners face some big challenges when it comes to search engine optimization:

	Often, Google doesn’t even know their site exists (this is VERY common)
	Even if Google does know about their site, it never shows up in search engine listings
	Even if their site does show up in some kind of search, it’s hardly ever the “keyword phrase” that the owner would like
	Even if the owner could dictate to Google what keywords to show the site for, most business owners don’t know which words and phrases are the money makers!

Any expert who tells you that they know the secret to how Google ranking works and/or guarantees that you’ll get into the top spots (for a fee, of course), is being less than truthful. Aggressive ranking efforts done the wrong way can even get your site de-indexed, which means that it will be removed from Google's index and will not show up at all in any search results.
