How much traffic does a site need for SEOTesting?

How much traffic does a site need for meaningful statistically significant test results with seotesting.com?

As a rough guide, we recommend testing pages or groups that receive at least 50+ organic clicks per day combined if you want a reasonable chance of getting a statistically meaningful result within a normal test window.

You can test lower-traffic pages, but the result should usually be treated as directional rather than definitive, unless the change is very large or the test runs for longer.

For SEO split tests, it’s less about total site traffic and more about having enough similar pages to create reliable control and test groups. Sites with lots of similar URL types, such as ecommerce, directories, marketplaces, location pages, or large content libraries, tend to be the best fit.

But also remember you can time-based test a specific page + query, and if that's a low traffic but high value page, it may be more about tracking the ranking in the before/after period rather than clicks.
