A Big Blunder

Hi,

when checked this keyword using IE
http://www.google.com/search?source...s=GGIC,GGIC:2006-39,GGIC:en&q=myspace+graphic

The first result is ev1servers.net

G gle

 

thats weird. I wonder how that happened.

 

it may be due to keyword targetting

 

Shows again that about everything at Google is beta...

 

Maybe it is because they are number 6 for allinachor

 

I also wouldn't have thought 'Myspace Graphic' would be a particualy competitive keyword. I'd guess most people are targeting the plural 'Myspace Graphics'

BigPhill is reight though, it's because they've deliberately targeted the term.

 

I have seen it previously also for some other terms (once even for my own site's "site:" command. Thats a gotcha.

 

i was on top for that word
but not now

No regrets tho

I know how to beat them

Just wondering

Google should be changing its algos now for sure, other wise all giant firms will target all popular names/keywords despite their relevancy

 

Nice catch guest!
But i wonder what made it come to the top for something unrelated..

The site even donot contain any keyword of "myspace graphic". That site must be jumping the Google logic and coming over top 1

Let me work on that to fix it up kidding!

 

What makes every other site rank for what they do - links from other sites using the keyword in their anchor text.
This - http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=allinanchor:myspace+graphic&btnG=Google+Search

There's really no mystery here people

 

Yep no wonder
But its not just "backlinks" dear.

 

so.. anchor text is a big thing!! right?

 

No, there are other factors, but in my experience the biggest factors by far are backlinks from on-topic pages and a good trustrank of the site.

Yes massive

 

Yes, welcome to SEO!

Prime examples:

http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=click+here
http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=miserable+failure&btnG=Search&meta=

You can get a blank page #1 for a keyword with enough links. With brute link force you can overpower any on page effort.

 

yep abhi, considering other factors in to consideration.

I have observed some strange results for different themes.

some (sites) got great positions for some themes with not much work for backlinks for good competitive words.

 

Do you have any examples?

 

http://www.google.com/search?as_q=m...as_dt=i&as_sitesearch=&as_rights=&safe=images

Anyone willing to find out how many of these sites point to EV1 ?

 

If you could share with us how you plan to beat 'em, it would be mighty helpful eh!
