    Figuratively speaking, you need to invest to make your website known in the World wide web, either with money or just hard work. Although if you consider time and your effort as money, then money is indeed part of it but you can invest with no actual money but just your strategies, knowledge and time. Just make use of it and you can make your website grow with money investment.

    To be honest this is a terrible question to ask, who in this world will admit to link buying for god sake.

    If you want to rank well then yes invest in your business.

    If you are an SEO yourself then why do you need to spend? If you are a good SEO you should know ways to help your site rank well.

    It's depend on your quality of competitors, your content and your site traffic reputation. In other words, your site should have a great features in all aspects ( i.e ) both in usability and must search engine friendly.

    Without atleast investing time into your site doing SEO work then no basicly, as time is money no matter how you look at it your will be investing in SEO.

    If your doing it yourself of course you can keep costs down to a minimum but to be honest if its a competative market then chances are its going to take alot more than just basic free ways of doing SEO.

    If you are well versed in the SEO development you can probably get away with doing most aspects of the seo process yourself, but you can not forgo it altogether and hope to rank high in the search results. You need to earn your spot.

    No, woth out SEO it's not possible. There are many other steps to be concurred to establish an internet identity. Submit your site to search engines and free directories, this will enhance your website crawl ratio

    Of course you can rank for competitive keywords without having to buy links, or pay for SEO services, of course it'll mean that you'll need to do more work promoting your website, building links etc.

    It's possible, but you basically have to spend 100x the effort and time to make high quality content and also wait forever for your content to be linked to by other high PR websites. In short, very few people who make serious money online do it like that.

    It is possible to get high ranking with some easy keywords but impossible with some good keyword with many competitors.

    I don't really care about page rank, that's just some dummy G brand. What I meant was high result position without paying links, seo campaigns...

    Yes, it is possible. I do all my own SEO. I do not buy links. And it's been a long, long while since I've paid for a directory review and listing. In other words, I pay nothing for SEO.

    Results? 90,000 unique visitors a month to site in signature link 2.

    It is possible. But if you don't have money to invest you will need to invest time/work .

    yes i think it is possible to rank without spending money on SEO

    i have been doing everything alone - gues posting, article submitting, etc etc and some of my keywords got me to rank on the first page of google..

    I just recently noticed that I became the #1 result for a keyword (out of 1 million + results)
    - which is pretty dam cool

    impossible if you dont invest in seo for organic traffic or for paid advertising you must do the seo yourself or your website will never be found.

    No dispute about this. BUT: What you are saying is that you do not PAY anybody to do the work. Nevertheless, you ARE investing - because your own work is an investment.

    People don't seem to think that their own work is an investment, but it is!

    And if someone does not want to invest -paying something to do it, or investing his own time in doing the work- then you he cannot expect ANY returns. As I indicated in my previous post, there is no such thing as a free ride.
