I'm on the 4th page for my keywords, what can I do to make sure I get to the top. I already know of backlinking, traffic etc. What else is there that can help me on my quest to greatness?
I'd take a good long honest look at your content, and the quality of said content. In fact, this is one of those times I'd step away from the SEO mindset and take a long good look at usability - find out of the content is relevant and good enough for people to link to (not to mention talk about). If you're trying to sell something, make sure the Web copy leads (persuades) the reader to want to buy your product and/or service.
Absolutely... improve the quality of your content... don't write it to imporve the keyword density or proximity.. but only write it for the users to read and buy... it should be highly relevant.. however, apart from that what you can do is link to good themed sites with good pr.. that can really help...
Think of the user in stead of the search engines Try to make your website more user friendly and your website will rank better
Your title suggest that youve nearly hit your goal, but I would say you have a bit to go yet. Take the advice of others and keep pushing on, remember getting from page 100 to page 4 is a lot easier than getting from page 4 to page 1. Once you are there you will need to work hard to keep your position - it never stops! Good luck
Just continue what you are already doing, you've reached the no. 4 spot, meaning there are chances to be in no. 1,. Being in no. 4 simply means that all seo techniques you've applied works. Do all the advice above!! goodluck
