What is Google Traffic Estimator? How can we use it? Is it useful?
It's meant more for adwords users, it will not tell you how much traffic you will get to your site accurately unless you are investing in an adwords campaign. You can see traffic, but everything else is down to your own SEO skills at gettign a piece of that traffic
Thanks for your reply Thissoli. That clears the air a bit. With so much information out there things can get a bit confusing at times.
Mostly used for checking the CPC of a keyword phrase. The Cost Per Click (CPC) that is returned on the traffic estimator is an estimate of what an adwords user is likely to pay per click and not what you as a publisher should expect when someone clicks on an ad. You will get a percentage of that CPC, not sure what the percentage is, which is why you look for keyword phrases with the highest CPC.
Google traffic Estimater tool can not calculate the exact traffic. Do not fully rely on SEO tool.

How can I get Google traffic?I get traffic from other places but barely from Google. Does it only depend on my use of SEO or are there other things to get traffic from there.

Hi everyone,Since Google's updates these past couple of months, I've noticed a significant traffic drop (about 20%). Every time I gain some traction and hope, it's a case of going back two steps again. I'm sure I'm not alone! I thought it might be a good idea to start a healthy discussion here to...
