Just a little success story using the network

Hey Guys,

I just checked on a little test I had been running for a term I am only playing with for fun. I have been tackling "photography blog". Nothing that difficult, not a ton of traffic, but when you are moving 2-3 spaces in the top 5, passing up long time established sites (2-4 years), and completing with the sites that use the keyphrase in the domain, its can require a little work. Well I have had the network up for 2 weeks, and managed to go up two places in the top 5, and establish about 40 links to the site. If I got number one that might piss off some people in the top slot. haha.

So cheers to Shawn, and the fun I have had. Thanks!

Ben

 

thanks for sharing your story

 

Care to share what you did to move up the ladder ?

 

I believe he means that his move up the ladder is attributable to the network.

 

Yes, the network was basically the test. I monitored links heavily, even down to times that google picked up other links. The link network just attributed to the move in rank in Google, how much I would not know. It was for fun, easy, and as a test for other sites. Its not over, as its been only several weeks. Months will definately add more to the effectiveness of the network.

 

and what "weight" do you have in the network?

 

Yeah the traffic looks minimal but there are over 2 million results for that phrase and you don't even have your internal linking setup for that phrase.

thanks for sharing.

 

excuse my ignorance - but what is this "network" ?

 

Regarding the weight I was given, it was rather very low, from what I have seen. 1740 I think it what I started with. Being a blog however, new pages get added regularly so the number is rising, and hopefully I can refer a few people along the way.
