Half of Fortune 500 Have No Natural Search Visibility

Manoj Jasra - Thursday, February 18, 2010 0 Comments



In a recent study conducted by Conductor, Inc reveals that although Fortune 500 companies spend a massive amount of online spend on paid search, their organic search results perform very poorly.

Key Takeaways
  • The Fortune 500 as a group spent approximately $3.4 million per day on 97,559 keywords – yet only 25% of these keywords rank in the top 50 natural search results.
  • Only 2% of the domains (not companies) surveyed showed a significant number of their terms in the top results. All of these positive domain scores were offset by other owned domains with significant visibility issues.
  • 15% of Fortune 500 companies studied showed mid to strong presence for their most advertised keywords.
  • 32% of Fortune 500 companies have low to mid presence.
  • 53% of Fortune 500 companies have no natural search visibility for their most advertised keywords.
  • Fortune 500 natural search visibility decreased with longer search queries.
  • 68% of keywords were found on a landing page (e.g. www.amazon.com/cellphone) versus a top level domain page (e.g. www.amazon.com).
