    Guys I am very happy to see my site in top 3 positions for my main keyword: The Webmasters Forum.
    It took long time to learn everything but now I know how to rank on google.
    Thank you DP forums for your help. :)

    Ranking for your domain name should be easy - especially when the term isn't competitive.

    Proper keyword research is a must before you spend time trying to rank for the keywords you select. Ranking #1 for a keyword that has zero daily searches isn't going to bring you any traffic.

    I have a lot of top ranking keywords for competitive terms - it just took years. I made the same mistake when I first started and targeted some keywords that brought very little traffic. With the online tools available today, it makes keyword research a lot easier.

    A new site shouldn't target highly competitive keywords if they want immediate traffic. Stick with less competitive keywords to start - but ones that will at least bring you traffic.

    I don't know yours but I think that term is somewhat competitive.
    Also I already have done keyword research and started targeting small term, now I have achieved that so I will move further.

    Can you please share tools you use?
    It will be helpful.
