    Had a good laugh...was going to just flame but were obviously all here to help one another.

    I can understand your frustration but I can assure you hardwork, linkbuilding (Onpage SEO) does in fact pay off and help your SE ranking in Google and other SE's (as if others matter ;p). Content is king (if you have something unique people have to come to you for it). Same principle with any media whether a picture, video, or article. But if you have generic content, then it boils down to a grindfest of links. It takes months of learning/planning and action to visibly see your rankings improve but I promise you they will....don't give up.

    Then try the two word approach:

    Failing businesses #2

    Or I guess I should have shot for the one word approach. Maybe the word Business? And you are correct, this site gets very little traffic...

    You would think due to the world recession and all of the major corporations shutting their doors that people would be interested in this...

    Hey so and so, did you hear that blankedy blank was closing their doors and having a blow out sale? Wow, I wonder what other businesses are closing? Let's try Google. Lets see, if I want to find out what businesses are failing or closing, what would I type... Ummmm Maybe failing businesses... Or going out of business. Wow that is too long though because I am too lazy to type so many words so lets stick to failing businesses...

    This all started while a buddy and I were having a few beers and discussing some of the companies going out of business... I asked him where he got his information and he said, failingbusinesses.com I thought he was telling the truth and he smiled and said it was a joke. I said in turn that it was a great idea and I am sure that people would be interested. I checked to see if the domain was available and it was so I jumped on it.

    Content was a bitch due to the fact that I was initially ripping news articles from news sites. I was informed that using the entire article would get me into legal trouble so I took all of the content on failing businesses down and changed my topic to include the world recession. I then decided to get my content the legal way from 3rd party distributors and so there you have it...

    Instead my plan was foiled due to the gayness of what people actually like. Twitter... Wow, I cannot believe this is actually successful...

    PR 4 With Only 1 Backlink http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=1292075

    Also, Google FAILING BUSINESS #3 of about 52,400,000

    Oh, but this is a "long tail keywords"...


    Instead of trying to be funny or condescending, why don't you actually explain yourself and intentions for posting this... Did you post this to add your opinion, or only to try and stir things up? Most people come here to share knowledge and gain knowledge on things web related. You have failed at delivering any type of message that contributes to these factors.


    Sorry "GURU" I guess since you are so wise, then you don't need to be here on a forum right? If you are so successful, then why are you wasting your valuable time on a forum? And better yet, why do you live in Romania?

    you're welcome. I can see that humor, and the appreciation of humor, are two of your strong points. Probably second only to your understanding of SEO, in fact.

    If you REALLY need to have it spelt out for you, you need to understand the difference between search text IN QUOTES and search text WITHOUT quotes.
