SEO Success! 30k pages indexed, #1 on all my major keywords

Discussion in 'Search Engine Optimization' started by Citizen, Sep 9, 2006.

    Well guys, my main two websites finally hit it.

    One has 30k pages indexed and PR4, the other 15k pages indexed and PR3

    Almost 4k visits daily JUST from SE organic traffic, the rest of the from direct or referral.

    I did the SEO the old fashioned way, give it time and build your pages correctly. I think theres probably about 10 things a good webmaster needs to get indexed well, and the best way to find out what works for you is guess-test-revise. Always look to improve your methods.

    Surprisingly, only about 5% of my SE traffic is from Yahoo, and 90% is google. Another surprising note, I get more traffic from multi-word keyphrases than I do the major keywords that I'm ranked highly on. Having diversity is the key to sweeping up those random searches.

    Well, anywho, big thanks to DP and the knowledge found throughout the forum.

    Well, they're gaming genre so the profit margins aren't all that great compared to the traffic, but 1k/month abo.

    The great thing about having lots of traffic on one website is that you can launch other websites and feed off of that base traffic.

    Also, I have advertising space available :)

    It'd take awhile to type up... there's tons of information around DP. I'll start typing them up though and hopefully have them up in a few days.

    Congrats. That's a lot of pages indexed.
    Did you use a sitemap?

    I don't want to "burst your bubble" whilst it's great news on the traffic, and SEO successes, getting 30k pages in Google is not that difficult nowadays.

    How did you find out how many pages you have indexed - was it through site:www.yourdomain.com

    I have 51K pages on one travel website, and I know I don't have that many pages.

    Congrats though.

    perhaps getting a lot of pages listed isnt a big deal, but #1 on all his keywords is an achievement.

    It sure is good.

    I wasn't been critical - just stating that the number of pages in Google is fluppered right now, i.e. broken.

    Both sites have been around for about 1 1/2 years.

    Nope, using a sitemap would be a good idea for most, but i've never had much success with it.

    Gotta love the long tail. :)

    Keep up the good work buddy. Let's hope you have many more sites that do just as well. Keep 'em rollin'! ;)

    Hoping on it :)

    Its tough once you have one big one going to try to make new ones and diversify, but its something we all have to do to make sure we survive. Nothing is ever certain or permanent.

    multi word keyword phrases and niche keyphrases always work. Are you getting top rankings on Yahoo and MSN also? They should be doing better than the 5% you've mentioned. Anyways Congratulations :D
