How to improve click-through rate from Google without changing your ranking

If a page shows often but few people click, the title and snippet are the place to work.

Find the candidates#

In the performance report, sort pages by impressions. Pages near the top with a low click-through rate are seen and skipped.

Rewrite what they see#

  • A title that names the answer, not just the topic.
  • A description that says what the reader gets, in one sentence.
  • Structured data where it fits, for a richer result.

Google may still choose its own title or snippet; its guides say what makes that less likely.

Prove it#

Clicks rise with the season too. Compare the page with untouched pages over the same weeks.

See it on your own site#

The free website check reads a site you name and reports what holds its pages back, with no account and no card. It changes nothing on your site.
