    I am so excited. I thought I would just let you guys know that I finally got one of my sites on the first page of google for its keywords.

    The keyword is "are you sober". The domain is areyousober.com

    I had some people stumble the site.

    Why do you think that I got on the first page of google? I didn't get any backlinks other than stumbleupon.

    Do you think just the stumbles and the keyword domains got me first on the domain.

    Thanks for your input in advance.

    Well your domain name certainly helped and the stumbles may have helped a bit.

    But at least for my searches you're pushing the back of the 2nd page on Google. Keep in mind that newer sites sometimes get bumped up quickly and slowly work there way back into the "fold" after a few days or weeks.

    But what do I know? Apparently I'm drunk :)

    Sadly right after I posted this thread, I got bumped to the second page. :( . The website is around 2 months old.

    your keyword is your exact website title, that did have a lot to do with it. I have a few like that, but they rank way back in the SERP's.

    "are you sober" is not exactly a phrase that people would be looking for in search engines.
    I don't think that this means much.

    Hey there,

    If you website is only 2 months old, I am surprised it is ranking at all.

    New sites usually end up in the sandbox for awhile.

    Congradulations though on achieving this milestone.

    Now, shoot for more competitive keywords ;)

    Sincerely,
    Travis Walters

    2 months is impressive, and you found DP, this place will get you there. It has helped me. I hope I can return the favors others have supplied, So for now here's my support. It will happen, I hat being sober, but my liver likes it.

    Yup! I think the right keywords did it for you. At least I know you were sober when you put up those words. Next time try thinking of key words while you are drunk. Let's see what will happen. Hik!
