I just set up my site, and I am already ranking on google, last result of first page, how is this possible? And is this a good or a bad thing? I guess it could go both ways.
Yes, it definitely depends on the competition for that particular keyword/phrase. To keep your ranking, make sure that you have enough backlinks.
During google updation site's rank's may change only for time being( not permanently) that might be the reason. And rest depends on no. of competition against ur keywords
if you website called for eg mywebsite.com & you are searching in mywebsite and its on 1st page thats not ,.........................dont have words to say .it works like this .Our website called swiftsaves.com & Its on 1st page on google with search term online auctions uk & Online auctions .& search term "online auctions" Have mega computation between mega websites such as ebay ,ebid etc.
Probably because you did not do proper keyword research and are trying to rank for a keyword that nobody searches for. It's a common noob mistake.
Let us know if it sticks or not. Sometimes new sites rank highly for a few days then drop off. It depends really!
New sites tend to jump all around on rankings, it might not be permanent, if it is good job keep up the good work.
I think one, you got lucky as your keywords must have less competition in google. Second google always does that with new sites, eventually maintaining that position is what matters the most. So make sure you maintain the position by various SEO techniques.
