Best Ways to Rank on Page One for Competitive Keywords

    I need to rank on page 1 for a few terms my website isn't established enough to rank for.

    I'm looking for websites I can use to get on page one for moderately competitive keywords.

    Here are some ways I know to do it, does anybody have any others they use?

    Article Directories (ezine, etc)
    Squidoo
    Hubpages
    Youtube
    Press Release Websites

    I'm not looking for SEO/link building tips, just websites whose domains are powerful enough to achieve first page rankings that I can make a keyword focused article/post/lens/whatever on.

    Hopefully we can build a killer list here.

    Thanks to anybody who can help!

    Why do you need 1001 ways to bring traffic to your website when you can not follow even 1?

    Tip: All the above methods are good.
    Bonus Tip: Always search the forum before posting to avoid infractions.

    Not sure where you got this from... I like to be thorough and wanted to make sure I'm not missing any good methods. I have time to follow a dozen methods, why limit myself to one?

    As for searching the forum first, if you know of a good list please feel free to share it. Even the "similar threads" coming up for this one are completely unrelated to my question. I don't believe there is a comprehensive list, but again if you know of one please feel free to share it.

    You seem to have listed all the ones I know of. I would be more specific with the article ones i.e Triond, Bukisa, Ezinearticles, Article Base. I have seen Triond Rank #1 for a lot of competitive keywords.

    Are you trying to completely own the first page of your keywords with this list?

    I'll have to check out Triond, I haven't heard of them before.

    Not necessarily, but that could be fun I guess. Most of the terms are too competitive to do that though. There are only a few weak antelope on each one.

    How about Scribd? - When you make an article, do a pdf version, with live links, and upload to scribd :)

    Also, guest posts on decent blogs can work really well! - There are some sites setup to connect those wanting links, with those wanting guest posts - google 'guest posts' or something? - See what you can find :)

    Great suggestions andrewbernes/mark watson. This is why I created this thread, I knew there were methods I was missing.
