What is “good” performance for a new Travel/City guide site?

Please don’t roast me! I’m sure this is a FAQ and I did try search first!

Hyper local website competing with the BIG sites like Yelp, Expedia, the big City Travel pages that are ran by the Tourism Boards.

I launched March 2 with only 8 indexed pages and I have a little over 60 pages indexed now. I’ve had 40k impressions so far with a big recent spike of traffic quickly compounding. It took 6 days to go from 30k to 40k impressions. I’m seeing around 1,500 daily visitors and a 1.2ctr. Avg position is 11.2 but that is dragged down by lowest ranking pages that have high competition from legacy sites. My top pages are all in the 5-8 range. Bounce rate is in the 30% range and time on page is a little over 1.2sec overall with 3.9 events per session.

So is this actually a good start? I have no frame of reference. I’d love to get your feedback!

TIA

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

GMB territory inching with service company

Seeking advice on extending our service area, while our main GMB profile states SD County, we only rank in our neighborhood but we have the team to service much more jobs. The boss wants us to get addresses in these hot territories within the county and use call rail numbers to validate the GMB profile. Question: Does this still work? Will it catch up with us? OR is there a better way to rank in a territory for a service. We are 4.9 stars with 120+ reviews submitted by /u/SoCal619TradesPro [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/9RWmh6i
