I have a website which already ranks for multiple keywords in position #3 - #10, but I want the site to rank in the #1 position. I would imagine that this is a simple task since the site already have a high rank, but I've been struggling for about 2-3 months trying to get #1 position. I have reoptimized the website pages and built more links. Does anyone have any suggestions that might help me achieve my goal of ranking in the #1 position for my target keywords? In advance, thank you!
I would say study the sites that rank above you and try to mimic them a little. If you can find someone with IBP ask them if they will run a top 10 report for you on each of the keywords you want to rank for. Other than that it is up to the site age and # of backlinks. keep at it and you will get that #1 position.
Thank you for the logic. What is IBP? And when you say site age, how long does the site age matter? My site is 2+ years. Thanks.
Okay, thanks. So, better link building? Does this mean building the quality of links, the the quantity of links, the age of links, etc. Please elaborate. Thanks again.
Sometimes these things take time. Mostly probably if your site is on the same level compared to the one in position 1 in terms of both having good contents + backlinks, google will give preferences to the older sites. Just be patient and meanwhile build your sites even further. Who knows one day you might reach the top
