Click-through rates? It's tricky but is possible too. How? Let say you have your log file for last month. You mine it to find how many clicks you got from Yahoo for a particular keyword. Later, you use the yahoo keyword research tool to find out how many people searched for that keyword the previous month. You know the math that follows.

I work for a company with almost a complete freedom of what I do with a retail website. My firm owns several websites that have PPC campaign selling the same products to the same ppl (bcoz same keywords). Currently our website are being hosted by an IT company that decided to serve the same market thus became a direct competitor. My firm decided to swap to another IT firm that has some stake interest in another wesbite which also co-own with my firm (another direct competitor) but not me. My question if my firm have them hosted under the same host, would search engine discover that the websites have the same owner thus impose rules on them for organic purposes?
