hey there, I am confused in SEO stuff. Please, any expert help me regarding this. Why the ranking is so confusing ? For the keyword: buy gold standard whey The Top 10 results; do not have keyword in title and url, i mean exact match. But the website, goldstandardwheyprotein.us/ is ranking on 13# on page 2, even though it has the exact keyword in title, but not in the url. Surprisingly the website got , 208 backlinks. which is higher than most the site backlinks on page 1. People said its easy to outrank amazon site, but with 77 backlink, with no on page optimization, is on top spot 1# ; beating other site with 1000 and 400 backlinks each. So I really don't understand this at all ? Is it worth it, to create any mini site that target keywords, even long tail keyword is dominated by most of the ecommerce and authority site like amazon. I am really fed up of this shit ? Those IM gurus claims that they make lots of money, but with such rankings confusions, how can they make a consistent income ???
There are more than 200 factors for assigning rank on SERPs. Keyword in title, in domain etc are just some of them. Maybe other factors are more influencing in your case. As you have said that there are more number of backlinks for a website and it is not ranking, well its quite normal because ranking depends on quality of links not on the quantity of links.
Hi there, 1. First the main thing is you are pure affliate to Amazon and by using iframe you are being promting the website 2. Your website has "zero" backlinks 3. "Zero" PR 4. Amazon is a Big Brand, its very harder these days to beat by having keyword/product specific URL.., because in GOOGLE panda update some big guns got there shot. 5. Number of Backlinks doesn't matter. Quality of Backlinks matters the most. 1000 backlink site can rank #1 and even 3-5 (quality, theme related) backlinks also rank at #1 6. It is having very high search volume, so can't expect so easy results. 7. Previous Google Panda Update, google started throwing affiliate sites into trash., as to give more leverage to brand/product selling websites only. 8. Now a days having keyword in URL trick has gone away. and there are HELL lot of reasons for not to be ranked.. hope this piece of info helps you out better.., regards, uday
I agree Uday11. Moreover, you don't have anything(content) of your own. You don't have any site structure also. You need to work really hard to position your self to the first page of Google.
