CTR - Brand Searches - Traffic Bots < Your views?

Hi,

I would keep it short.

1. How important a factor is CTR in your opinion?
2. Is brand name search even a factor at all or its only me who thinks it is one of those 200 ranking factors?
(It could only be CTR as well, as the brand searches have ctr above 50%)

3. How is it to use a traffic bot that searches your keyword on google, then goes to your site and browses it...??

Has it been helpful to any of you guys at all?

Your views and feedback is very valuable for me!

Not sure about the bots, but you can test and play around with CTR and decide for yourself. https://serpclix.com/

Also, there are so many threads already on it started this year alone, why not contribute/ask something there instead of creating a new one?
