Hey, One of my sites is on page 16 for a rather competitive keyword. Few weeks ago, it was too, but begin august it lost it's rankings, and didn't rank anymore. Yesterday, i was 188 and today 163! Now, since the drop I've been dong alot of linkexchange with that anchor. Is it coinsidence that I'm ranking, and would it be worth it to work on that particular keyword? Or does being on page 16 mean nothing? Also what do you recommend me to do? I've been doing alot of directory submission and lately also link exchange tons of link exchange) If i rank in top 10 for this, all my problems are over (for this site ) Thanks!
yes keep on building backlinks backlinks and backlinks.Try out article submission and social bookmarking and search engine submission.
Link exchange doesn't help much. Links from only directories won't bring you ranking on a 1st page if it is a a competitive keyword.
You first need plenty of links from directories. Many sites can achieve a pr of about 3 or 4 just from directories. Then, your site will rank a little higher. Do article submissions? Put a link in your signature. After a while, if people like your site, they will start to naturally give you links. DMOZ listing helps a bunch if you are lucky enough to get one.
wats is your website, is it dynamic and always updated ? if yes, let me try to have good rank on google. pm me the keyword, i will analyze and give u the price. money back guarantee if not rangked by google.
OK; people, many of you advice the man to get a lot of directory links. Now, please can anyone show how, in what time and with links in which directory (s) he/she improved his SERPs. On the other hand, Sanzo, are you willing to share URL of your site? It is hard to tell a diagnosis to an uknown patient.
More links are always good, but if you can get them to be one way links, from relevant and important sites they will help a lot more.
Hey, Sorry guys, but I don't want to reveal the site I'm talking about. Though my rankings have improved alot! I was able to get upto page 3, but today I'm back to page 7 witch is very frustrating :\ I guess I'll need to google for even more backlinks. Any tips? Thanks!
Sanzo, there are some ways you can get free backlinks. You don't have a link here in signature, not in your profile... If you don't want to reveal a site, we maybe don't want to help promote you what we don't know.
I'm sorry but I just can't show it off for the moment. Thanks though for reminding me that I had no links in my signature. I added one of my arcades. I was pretty sure it already was in my signature :\ Thanks.
