When content is published on a website, it is always important to get organic clicks and visits. However, this is not always the case and in some cases Searches are done with 0 clicks. When this happens, many users wonder what to do to make it better?
For some search queries it is becoming more and more common to generate 0 clicks because Google gets a lot of information from extensive snippets.
With that in mind, a study by Ubersuggest has shown that over the past four years the number of non-click searches has increased. According to this study, 62.41% of all Google searches worldwide received no clicks in 2020.
