my forum http://www.postgamepub.com (Sports Discussion Forum) cant seem to get listed with my keywords. What I mean is if you google sports forums or sports discussion forums, im nowhere to be found. Yesterday we were on page 8 when, it was the first time we had ever been found under the search term sports discussion forum. Today I check it again and we arent there. Didnt move up and it looks like we moved well behind to the point that i cant find it. Any insight from anyone is greatly appreciated.
should linkbacks be formated like http://www.postgamepub.com or according to my site's title which is Postgame Sports Discussion Forum
Backlinks should be formated exactly like your targeted keywords: sports forums or sports discussion forums
yes, people will not use 'Postgame' as a search keyword. The text of your links (or anchor) should resemble the keywords you want to target
is it hurting the title being there? I understand people wont search for postgame to find sports forums. i see some forums that say xxxxxxx sports forum etc. Thank you guys for taking the time to answer my questions if you have any links or sites that you want to listed on mine just let me know. We have a link forum.
They should use anchor text like in your title. Some of them should be exact, some should say post-game, some shouldn't use that word at all. If all of your links have exactly the same text, that might not sit well. Definitely don't use your URL, since no one will ever search on that, except SEOs. Submit to directories. Post comments on sports forums and blogs. Post links on your site to other sites related to sports analysis; if you send traffic, and start a good discussion on your forum about something unique the other site did, they'll return the favor and link to you.
You have to work on your site to be listed, write new content, submit articles etc... It takes time... p.l.u.r.
fellas i cant thank you enough. Not only did the forum return to the search phrase sports discussion forum....but moved up 3 full pages!
lol we dissapeared from search results again today. i guess these are just things we have to get through
just an update. we are now getting listed near the top of page 2 on search results for Sports Discussion Forum.
Sports is a tough one, I should know. I've been working with my site since the start of the NFL season. "Free Sports Betting" has gotten me to the 1st page of google... Problem is, even though I'm on the first page and getting some visitors it really hasn't brought me any cash or users.
You need more SEOs for your site for sure. how many back link you have got? and how old is your forum. put it together and figure how to do it yourself. get more info from this forum ^^
