This is amazing it's been a week since i started out a forum and i already rank in top 2 pages for many of the most competitive keywords related to my forum . here's how you can achieve the same . content - quality and neat . also i had unique content . backlinking - never buy backlinks , the one you get naturally through selection by users at your site are indeed of much quality . i used no black hats , and no focus on anything else , though i share many at my own forum .
I dont get you on that ? I just post my link on one or two sites , and then it gets promoted if the users like it . For SE Most posts are like articles at the site . so users can read and share . I don't offer revenue sharing because the quality degrades sooner or later .
Friend, do you know what is the 'fresh site bonus', 'fresh content bonus' and all other 'freshness bonuses'? If your forum stay high for longer than month, then you can share with us your methods.
How much traffic are you getting from google? My site APC has been around for 10 months, and is just now starting to get real traffic from google. About 200 a day. Jan I had 400 search hits from google total Feb I had 1,000+ March I had 2300+ April I have had 2300+, and is only April 17th. I used this site help me do my metas... http://www.seocentro.com/tools/search-engine-optimization-tools.html Check out their search engine saturation too. Very cool tool to see how indexed you are.
People should put this in perspective. It isn´t that easy. I have a website with the keywords "Koans Zen". It´s the first on google since it started. Because the competition is very, very low. Try that with "Cell Phone". It will take more than a year of content building before you get in the top 50.
I got to #3 for a single common english word with 43million results in 10 days, only beaten by 2 whitehouse.gov pages. Keeping it there is a whole different ball game.
I am quite disagree with this phrase, backlinks sometimes can give you high ranking as well as traffic, unless you get low ranking backlinks.
Some meta analyzer require some payment, they analyze and tell you the problem, is that worth the money?
No absolutely not, there are already a plenty of tools that you can use for free. Try using Google webmaster tools, Google analytics, statcounter etc. These all are free and very effective if used correctly.
