Case Study: From Position 5 to Position 2 in One Week with SerpClix

Last issue we looked at a multi-domain test across 7 keywords. This time, a different firm — different country, different approach, same conclusion.

Coreter Media is a UK-based SEO firm. They wanted to test whether SerpClix could move keywords that were already ranking well — not buried on page 3, but sitting just outside the top 3 positions where the real traffic lives.

The starting point.

They picked keywords averaging position 4.7 in Google. These weren't easy targets — they were terms getting 800 to 1,000 monthly searches. Close enough to the top to be competitive, but not quite where they needed to be.

What they did.

They sent approximately 15 to 25 SerpClix clicks per day for several days. Nothing extreme — a moderate, steady volume of real human clicks.

What happened.

Within a few days, the keyword jumped from position 4.7 to position 2.7.

It kept climbing. After about a week, it reached position 1.7.

In their own words: "After only a few days of sending around 15-25 users a day I jumped from 4.7 to 2.7 and kept rising to 1.7."

Why this case is interesting.

Moving a keyword from page 3 to page 2 is useful. But moving from position 5 to position 2 is where the economics change dramatically. The difference in click-through rate between position 5 and position 2 is enormous — studies consistently show that position 2 gets roughly twice the clicks of position 5.

This is the part of the ranking ladder where small movements translate to real traffic gains.

It's also worth noting that they didn't need hundreds of clicks a day. Fifteen to 25 was enough. For keywords in that search volume range, a moderate daily volume of real human clicks was sufficient to shift the needle.

The usual caveats.

Every keyword, niche, and competitive landscape is different. We can't guarantee the same results for every campaign. SEO doesn't work that way.

But when an independent SEO firm runs their own test with their own money and publishes what they found, that's worth paying attention to.

Please note: there are no guarantees in search engine optimization, ever. There are innumerable factors that can affect search engine rankings. And, realistically, most sites should focus their efforts on traditional SEO before even thinking about using non-traditional techniques like SerpClix. All SEO efforts can involve an element of risk. Some techniques are certainly more risky than others. SerpClix employs real human clickers, so we think our service is far less risky than trying to use automated or robotic click methods. But, like all SEO strategies, there is an element of risk because Google’s algorithm is unknown and subject to change at any time. For more information please see our Buyer FAQs.
