79,000 organic clicks. 1.75 million impressions. A 4.5% average CTR at position 6.9.
These aren’t numbers from a massive media company. They’re from an affiliate marketing blog — managed from Kolkata, built on consistent SEO, and pulling nearly 26,000 organic visitors every month from Google alone.
This Kolkata SEO case study covers 3 months of performance data captured after 5 months of continuous SEO work. Here’s what that looks like in practice.
Kolkata SEO Case Study: Affiliate Blog Hits 79K Clicks & 1.75M Impressions in 3 Months
- Industry: Affiliate Marketing / Blogging
- Location: Kolkata, India

- Timeline: 5 months total SEO work | 3-month data snapshot

The Numbers
| Metric | Result (3 months) |
|---|---|
| Total clicks | 79,000 |
| Total impressions | 1,750,000 |
| Average CTR | 4.5% |
| Average position | 6.9 |
| Estimated monthly clicks | ~26,000 |
A 4.5% CTR at an average position of 6.9 is the number that stands out most here. At that position, most sites see 1–2% CTR. Getting 4.5% means the titles are compelling, the meta descriptions are doing their job, and the content is matching exactly what searchers are looking for.
That’s not accidental. It’s the result of optimizing every entry point — not just rankings.
What 5 Months of Affiliate SEO Looks Like
Affiliate blogging is a patience game. The first few months are about building the right content architecture — identifying which topics have real search demand, which keywords have buyer intent behind them, and how to structure content so Google understands the site’s topical authority.
Months three through five are where it compounds. Content that was indexed early starts climbing. New pages benefit from the authority built by older ones. Internal linking starts channeling value to the highest-priority pages.
The graph in this 3-month snapshot shows exactly that pattern — a strong opening, a natural settling period as Google recalibrates, and then a clear upward trend through late June and July as the compounding effect kicks in.
By July, the site was consistently hitting 800–1,100 clicks per day.
Why CTR Matters More Than Position Alone
Most SEO reports focus on rankings. This one tells a different story.
Position 6.9 is a solid but not spectacular average. What makes the difference here is the 4.5% CTR — nearly double what you’d expect at that position. That gap between where you rank and how often people click is pure content strategy.
When titles speak directly to what the reader wants to know, when meta descriptions give a clear reason to click, and when the content delivers on that promise — Google notices. Pages get clicked more often, dwell time improves, and rankings follow.
That’s the feedback loop that drives sustainable affiliate blog growth.
