How to seperate paid from organic conversions?

So we have a little fallout with a client. He has his ads account managed by another agency. We only do SEO, but we see the data from the ads account.

He pays over 4x in clicks than what he pays us monthly for content management and work on organic rankings. 75% of his paid traffic bounces. Yet he still has amazing results overall. We can't really differentiate between "our" results and what is to be credited to the ads.

What should we do? Try to become the exclusive agency for ads and SEO, drop the client, or keep up the work and let him burn money for clicks while he is reluctant to pay us more for the amazing organic rankings we already reached and continue to deliver?

For clarification. We let him cut the budget by 50% because the alternative was him not being able to afford us due to liquidity problems. Clients not paying. Payroll Overhead. yadda yadda...

No wonder he can't afford us when he blows so much on clicks that don't bring in new clients.

I am really torn with this one. Please give me some sound advice on how to handle this situation.

Legit Reviews

The google review thing is insane I have gotten 2 legit verified reviews that i ask client to screenshot and observe goolge not post them, pretend like they never happened and when i sent them the image a policy message was sent . As I was browsing through the google forum a lot of ppl are getting hit with legit reviews being removed. While all this is going on i have observe a company go from 12 reviews to 65 reviews in a two month period with some stuff that dont make sense on some of them. Seems like a new business or profile is being limited while aged accounts can have a free for fall but who really knows. Still waiting for a resolution on a if any. submitted by /u/Ok-Bowl-6167 [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/zkbfgDH

Local seo vs. natiowide seo?

I've done SEO for local businesses but I recently got my first client that sells an item nation wide. ​ Any suggestions for doing nationwide SEO? ​ I am used to making geopages for local towns. I was going to do the same with some input from the client about what cities or towns he would like to show up in? submitted by /u/Letmeinterviewyou [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News http://bit.ly/2JHy0k0

7 SEO Lessons I've Learned in 2025 (So Far) - From Building a Competitor Analysis Tool

Hey r/SEO , I've been spending a lot of time lately building a competitor keyword research tool (more on that below!), and it's really forced me to dig deep into how SEO works today . Here are some of the key lessons I've learned – hopefully, they're helpful to you too: Keyword Gaps Are Gold: It's not enough to just know what keywords your competitors rank for. You need to know what they rank for that you don't . This is where the real opportunities lie. Focusing on these "gap" keywords has been a game-changer for my own site. (This is actually why I built the tool – to make finding these gaps easier). Relevance > Volume (Sometimes): High search volume is great, but relevance is even more important. A keyword with 100 searches per month that's perfectly aligned with your niche and audience is often more valuable than a keyword with 10,000 searches that's only tangentially related. I've seen much better results targeting tho...
