CTR (click-through rate) measures how attractive a search result or ad is. CTR in Google is influenced by the page title, meta description and rich results from structured data.
What it means in practice
CTR (click-through rate) is the percentage of people who saw your Google result, ad or link and clicked it. If a result was shown 1,000 times and got 50 clicks, the CTR is 5%.
Why it matters for your business
A higher CTR means more visits from the same position at no extra cost. In Google Ads it also affects the cost per click – a more attractive ad pays less.
Examples and good practice
- Write titles with service, town and benefit.
- Add a call to action in the meta description.
- Use structured data to earn rich results.
- Check CTR in Search Console and improve the weakest pages.
