The Google News Effect
I submitted one of my sites last week to Google News, and it was approved for inclusion. It was indexed this week. The site is a news sites that was initially geared towards local Cleveland, Ohio people, but also included national and international interest articles. It was averaging about 25 to 50 uniques for the past couple months per day with no promotion, links or anything. That's pretty low traffic. It's only about 3 or 4 months old. Since being included in Google News, the traffic is rising considerably. Check out the stats (last column is unique visits):
10 Oct 2006 27 11 Oct 2006 25 12 Oct 2006 19 13 Oct 2006 16 14 Oct 2006 21 15 Oct 2006 17 16 Oct 2006 24 17 Oct 2006 135 18 Oct 2006 525 19 Oct 2006 591 20 Oct 2006 878 Oct. 17th was when it was added to Google News, late in the day. Pretty neat. I always wondered how much of an impact it would make to be included in Google News. I'm curious to see if it keeps rising... So far, entertainment and sports stories are the biggest draw.... Also, interestingly, the Google News traffic seems to produce a higher click through rate on AdSense ads on the site. I don't get that kind of click through on any of my sites with similiar traffic levels. I will also be watching this to see if that remains steady. I wonder if people who use Google News are more likely to click the ads. Last edited by Julie : 10-21-2006 at 08:10 AM. |

It wasn't any one particular news article. I have lots of articles posted daily, each one getting hits from Google News. But the most popular seem to be entertainment and sports related ones.
The turn around time from it being published on my site and being included in Google News seems to be about 5 minutes. |

I think Google News only publishes the best one isn't it.

Very nice information. Thanks for sharing. I submitted a site to Google News close to a year ago and got rejected. Not entirely sure why, but it is something I had been planning on revisting in the future. It is nice to see you get a decent flow of traffic from it.
