Quick reference
| Task |
Action |
| Explain SEO vs SEA to client |
SEO = free organic results below ads; SEA = paid ads at top |
| Justify SEO investment |
Position 1 gets ~31% CTR; position 2 gets ~14%; below page 1 is near-zero |
| Explain dual purpose of SEO |
Traffic acquisition + reputation management (reviews, Knowledge Panel) |
| Moving up one position |
Increases CTR by ~30.8% on average |
| Google Analytics channel check |
Acquisition > All Traffic > Channels > Organic Search |
Core principles
- "Je doet er goed aan om de eerste, de beste te zijn" - rank 1 is not just better, it is exponentially better in clicks.
- Google evaluates 6 factors: Relevantie, Populariteit, Uniciteit, Actualiteit, Kwaliteit, Leesbaarheid.
- SEO has two jobs: attract new visitors AND manage your reputation (what shows when someone Googles your brand name).
- Google is permanent infrastructure. Social media platforms come and go; Google has been the dominant search engine for 20+ years.
- On-page SEO = what is on your own site. Off-page SEO = what others say about your site (backlinks, reviews).
- Organic search is a compounding asset. SEA stops when budget stops; SEO keeps delivering.
- Position 1 to 2 jump: +28.4% CTR. Position 5 to 4: +43.1%. Biggest gains are in the top 5.
- Reputation management: a well-optimised brand page owns the Knowledge Panel (address, reviews, opening hours) and controls what strangers see first.
How to apply (for any new Weblyfe site)
- Verify Google Analytics is installed and Organic Search channel shows data under Acquisition > All Traffic > Channels.
- Confirm Google Search Console is linked and verified.
- Define the 6-factor goal for the site: which queries should it rank for (Relevantie), what makes it unique (Uniciteit), how often will content be updated (Actualiteit).
- Set up Google Business Profile if the client has a physical or local presence - this feeds the Knowledge Panel.
- Frame SEO goals in positions, not just traffic: "get from position 8 to position 4" is more concrete than "get more traffic."
- Explain to client that results take months, not weeks. SEO is an investment, not a campaign.
Anti-patterns (what the PDF says NOT to do)
- Competing only on SEA without building organic presence. Budget runs out; the tap closes.
- Ignoring reputation management. If a competitor or bad review dominates the brand SERP, that is an SEO problem too.
- Treating Google and social media as equivalent channels. Social media algorithms change constantly; Google's core ranking logic is stable.
Examples and templates
CTR benchmark (from PDF slide):
- Position 1: ~31%
- Position 2: ~14%
- Position 3: ~10%
- Positions 4-10: declining steeply
- Page 2+: near zero
Moving up one position increases relative CTR by approximately +30.8%.
Reputation use case: when someone Googles "IMU" (Internet Marketing Unie), the Knowledge Panel shows 4.8 stars, 195 Google reviews, opening hours. That is SEO working as reputation management, not just traffic.
