Who in this forum has achieve top rankings?

Who in this forum has achieve a top ranking on competitive keyword using personal SEO techniques? And What techniques were used to achieve it?

 

i have achieved page 1 rankings for a variety of keywords for space-clothing.co.uk using directory submission, article submission, digg.com and squidoo.

 

search for compaq netbook in Google and the 3-rd result is my blog NetBookin.com

 

Well i ranked many clients sites in top10

and my own sites for terms wuith 70 milion results

My techniques is my personal biz ...

 

I have multiple sites on first page for competitive keywords. My strength is quality content and I mostly stick to free methods of building backlinks like directory and article submissions.

 

I have achieved many top rankings too. I prefer using strategies like article submissions, directory submissions, mini websites (on networks like squidoo.com, hubpages.com, work.com, etc), blog comments and forum signatures. I diversify my link building strategies as much as possible and the search engines love it.

 

I have achieved that for my clients too. I only concentrate on high PR dofollow blog commenting with hyperlinked keywords and it works.

 

My main forum and my blog hold several #1 - #5 spots in google, yahoo and bing. It has taken years to get there and I do not want to discuss all of the techniques that I used.

I will tell you this, unless your willing to dedicate 2+ years to a website, go ahead and get out of the market. Because it takes a lot of work and a lot of time to promote a site.

 

I think those hidding secret techniques may be using Black Hat techniques.

 

I purchased a site that has many 1st position terms but there is a reason I purchased it and didn't do it myself . Back when I was in high school 8 years ago I created a page that got a #1 ranking on a term searched for 50K times/month with only on-page SEO and no link building but it is was easy back then. It still holds the #4 position but I sold it for $100 years ago when I didn't know I could actually make good money with it.

 

Do you think relevance is part of the game here?

 

I got my website ranking on the first page for main keywords, unfortunately, I'm struggling to make it to top 3, it's getting more and more difficult to move up when you get to the first page.
In order to get there I realised that your links must come from different places and just directories or forum signitures won't do you any good.

 

I have several key terms on page one. Mostly long tail stuff, but keyterms very targeted to the people who will recognise the benefits of my companies services.

 

Not really, there are some very easy keywords which you can rank easily for (within 2-3 months) and make very good money from.

One of the main ones I am working in is with tradesmen, such as builders, plumbers etc.

A lot of websites for builders city are not SEO'd at all and someone with a little knowledge can easily get to the No.1 spot.

Once you are ranked you can then rent out your site for a decent monthly amount. A single job to a builder can be worth hundreds, if not thousands of dollars. They can then afford to pay you decent rent for your site. You can hire phone numbers for like $2 per month which transfer the call to the building company and logs the number of calls, this way you can keep track of how many enquiries they have had etc for if they try to barter. If you then create several of these sites you can then link them up to create a strong network which will be difficult to beat.

 

It's actually easy to rank for any keywords you like as long as you got the right tools and networks for you SEO campaigns. It maybe surprising to some but you one can rank even a competitive keyword for only 4-6 months.

 

m achieved the top.. main part is link building... work with may forums and also submitted in many places.. also working content updation as well little bit on page optimization

 

Many ways to slice the cake. I've worked with a number of SEO companies, besides for doing my own stuff.

My current company uses tons of link submissions / directories that have been vetted out. It gets us really good results. (Google "SEO Company" and click the number one link. Alternatively, click the "I'm feeling lucky button.)

In the past I've used article directories, link submissions, and social bookmarking, all quite effective and affordable, not too expensive.

I hate manual labor. Intense social media marketing, tons of content on my site just aren't my thing (unless I can hire someone for cheap ).

On the blackhat SEO Side, I've done blog networks, with a mix of autoblogging techiques along with RSS Feeds. Worked quite well, always a risk you'll get banned if you go too far with it...

 

I think many people have archived high rankings, The key is hard work ;-)

Just stick with it and you to will get high rankings
