3 More Studies Examine Wikipedia’s Page 1 Google Rankings

Wikipedia is highly visible in Google search results, though not nearly as much as Intelligent Positioning reported in February. Even in the case of one-word search queries, Wikipedia results appear on the first page 8 out of 10 times, not 99 percent of the time as IP suggested, according to a new study by Conductor.
In Wikipedia in the SERPs, Conductor offered another look at the Wikipedia/Google bias issue. Their findings are similar to those of our recent Search Engine Watch study, though the scope of Conductor’s report is slightly different; where we examined Wikipedia results on Google vs. Bing, they broke queries out into transactional vs. informational. This segmentation allows for a better look into Wikipedia distribution according to how people actually search.
Slingshot SEO and SpyFu also threw their hats in the ring; Slingshot in an examination of a slightly larger keyword sample size and SpyFu with a historical look at Wikipedia rankings over the last five years.

Wikipedia Results in Google Top 10 for 60 Percent of Informational Queries

Conductor found that Wikipedia results are more prevalent for informational queries, ranking on the first page 60 percent of the time. For searchers seeking information, this is indeed a logical result.
For transactional queries, ie.: “boots on sale” or “where can I buy a black ereader,” Wikipedia still appears on the front page 34 percent of the time.
"I think this study highlights the importance of looking at Wikipedia results based on the intent of the query," Nathan Safran, Director of Research at Conductor, told SEW. "The same holds true for the length of the query."

Wikipedia Dominates for 1-Word Searches, Often Takes Top Spots

Intelligent Positioning had found that Wikipedia results appeared on Google’s first search engine results page 99 percent of the time. Not so, says Conductor.

We did see questions and criticisms after that first study, based on their keyword generation method; they used a random noun generator. Conductor used Google Suggest, keyword research website Soovle, and the Google AdWords keyword tool to populate their lists of search terms. In their report, they note that, “Care was taken to mix high volume searches with lower-volume, self-generated queries to produce a balanced keyword list that is reflective of what actual searcher activity might look like.”
In this study, Conductor found that Wikipedia ranked in the top 10, on the first page, for 85 percent of informational and 73 percent of transactional one-word queries. They do note that it is more difficult to determine searcher intent with a one-word query; at two words, there was a significant drop in Wikipedia’s dominance of Google.

Where Wikipedia did appear on the first page on Google, it often took one of the top three positions, where most clicks occur. Even in transactional searches, Wikipedia was one of the top three results 63 percent of the time. Similarly, 66 percent of informational queries brought back Wikipedia results in the top three.
In our SEW study, our findings were similar, with Google showing Wikipedia results in one of the top three positions 70 percent of the time. Bing, however, did so even more often; 79 percent of searches showed Wikipedia in the top three on that engine.
Conductor analyzed 2,000 informational and transactional queries: 1,000 keywords each for informational and transactional queries. In the report, they note that “an analysis of a subset of navigational keywords showed Wikipedia was largely not visible for these kinds of queries, so we did not complete a full analysis of these terms.”

Slingshot SEO Finds Wikipedia in Top 10 for 28 Percent of Terms

SlingshotSEO also took a crack at examining Wikipedia distribution in Google search results, though their methodology differed again from the others. They used a larger sample than Intelligent Positioning had (2955 keywords), had terms ranging from one to nine words in length, and compiled the keyword list using in-house client data.Read more...

Optimizing News for Searchers, Search Engines & News Publishers

While content is central to news publishers’ value proposition, you could say that distribution is a close second. Before the Internet, consumers either got their news from a newspaper, a magazine, or a TV broadcast (and word of mouth, but for our purposes, we’ll stick with the media versions).

These media channels are essentially “push” distribution vehicles delivering, at scale, a produced and edited unit – the news – for mass consumption. Even if consumers wanted to engage with multiple news sources, it's difficult to read five newspapers in a day or watch three separate news broadcasts simultaneously.

This paradigm changed dramatically with the advent of the Internet, as readers could now easily read snippets of news from various sources with a few clicks of the mouse. You could scan the front pages of several newspapers, or even more simply, scan the headlines on a news aggregation site in a matter of seconds to get a quick feel for what is happening in the world. Furthermore, if there was a single big story that day, you could read through dozens of articles on the same subject for different angles and tidbits.

With this paradigm shift, news distribution has evolved into being more of a “pull” mechanism, where consumers are in greater control of what news they consume and how they consume it. News discovery has evolved beyond deciding which TV station to watch; consumers can request information on particular subjects and they’ll come right to your computer screen. Search plays a critical role in this discovery process, and when analyzing the data, some notable patterns emerge.

News Search Optimization – Search Engines vs. News Sites

 

Keeping up on news search optimization is a daunting task for any news publisher or marketer. With the news business being so dynamic, it's hard enough keeping up on all of the latest news stories, let alone optimizing your search campaigns to capitalize on breaking news at a moment’s notice.
SEO and SEM professionals at these organizations are constantly trying to come up with evergreen architecture and techniques to maximize their exposure as events unfold. Although this is often the most pressing concern with news search, there is an overlooked area worth paying attention to as well:
  • Is the way that searchers look for news on search engines any different than the way they look for news on news websites? 
  • Is there anything we can learn from this that would allow us to better prioritize our marketing efforts?
News-related searching has ballooned over the past few years, both on search engines and on news sites, but how people search on these different sites and what they search for differs greatly.

For the purposes of this research, search engines are defined as the big 5 web searches – Google web search, Yahoo web search, Bing web search, AOL web search, and Ask web search – while news site search includes the six largest news sites based on their search totals – Yahoo-ABC News Network, Google News, Bing News, NYTimes.com, CNN.com, and MSNBC.com.

In February 2012, U.S. searchers conducted 371 million news related searches on search engines, as defined by comScore’s intent categorization methodology, which accounted for 2.3 percent of all search engines searches performed during the month.

But searches performed on non-search engine news sites actually outdistanced search engines news search, totaling 581 million searches in February. Although search engines play an integral role in the news discovery process, the actual news providers and aggregators are still leading the pack.

Behaviorally speaking, it appears that consumers of news data are still more likely to go directly to a “news” specific search engine than they are to run news searches on search engines themselves. The vertical nature of these sites appears to resonate with the searchers, as news searchers are less interested in extraneous results for their news searches that they may get on the broader search engines (e.g., Whitney Houston CDs being sold right next to the news article they want to read regarding her funeral).Read more.......
