Can good content alone get your good SERPs?

    Let's say you do on-page SEO and post good content 3~4 times a day.
    Can that alone get you good organic traffic ?

    You will need people to take that good content and add it to their sites with your link attached.. The reason why Google tries to say content is king is because they assume that Good content will be linked to.. Meaning, people will want to link to your site because of the good content.. Doesn't always work out that way.

    And most of all, it depends what your targetted keywords are. High competition...NO, low competition, possibly.

    You do need quality content but keyword placement is more important.
    Quality content will help bring people back to your site once they found you in the first place.

    Having good content is only a portion of SEO.

    no. As much as people say that 'content is king' its only part of SEO. you should also have an extensive off-page optimization plan as well... link building, link building, link building (that is, with quality sites with high PRs)...

    It is possible, but it depends on many things like: how old your domain is? how much seo friendly your website is? quality of your content etc.

    In the way of the internet today, you might get victimized by content copiers resulting to them to rank instead of your site.. Unless you have genuine services only you can provide, it is not easy to get better rankings without off-page optimizing your site.

    can you win an election if no one votes for you? Absolutely not which is why you need quality backlinks as well.

    I disagree with most of you :) Its the good content what you can get you a good SERP. If you are sharing good stuff, I mean really good stuff, then people will link to you -> organic backlinks. Plus those backlinks will be from content, not from sidebar, footer etc.

    Depends on the current web visibility your website has.

    If your website is not popular then you'll have a hard time getting traffic. It is not impossible but it'll be hard to get one.

    If your website is a popular one, take Perez Hilton's celebrity blog as an example, with that kind of web visibility, you'll never care much of organic traffic since your direct traffic will sky rocket everyday.

    I partially disagree with you too. How would people link back to you if they don't even know your blog? If you don't have that web visibility then your content is not gonna help. Time to do SMO for you.

    if your keywords is less competitive then you will get ranked in search engine but for competitive keywords you have to work hard to get top ranking by generating quality backlinks

    Organic backlinks and good content sounds great, but it's no longer realistic unless you want limited traffic and good SERPs only for non-competitive phrases that won't drive any traffic.
