Keyword traffic estimator 29th November 2010 2:00 PM
It makes sense to me for the following reasons:
It's not a competitive keyword and services such as hairdressers are typically searched online for less than for example, an accountant.
Domestic services, from my research over the last couple of years when doing keyword research, generally has less search volume than a B2B service.
People are also misguided by the 'search results' displayed at the top of Google. That's broad search results thus the phrase you quote is showing 133,000 search results.
....meaning anthing that includes the 3 words of 'milton' 'keynes' 'hairdressers' in any order and within any same or longer phrase. Thus most of those results are likely to be completely unrelated to your business. It is not 133,000 people searching on the exact phrae of 'hairdressers milton keynes'. My research shows me there are an average 2 a day searching on that exact phrase so exlcuding how many times oyu are typing it in each month, that's how popular it is. Not very, as you can see.
Furthermore, are your stats showing 2-30 day for your total unique visitors or is that 20-30 per month for that exact keyword alone, excluding all other keywords searched on that from your monthly visitor total?
Lastly, you are showing as No. 1 in Google maps local listing and not in the natural search engine results. Not that it matters, as you are No. 1 top of the page, so mission accomplished none the less.
I'd say you'd generate more traffic to your site via a Facebook page than Google if you work it locally, and regularly.
