    Hi,

    I found this post on another forum. When you search the keyword "stock trading" www(dot)stocktradingtips(dot)com comes up #1 or #2.

    They only have 1 page and not much quality backlinks. This is an extremely competitive keyword.

    Can any SEO expert explain.

    Where are you searching? It's not showing up at all for me on Google.

    You can't trust Google's report of links. Yahoo shows 817 backlinks - still not a lot for this term.

    A lot of these seem to be from MySpace. Hmm, I wonder why all those teenagers linked to a stock trading site?
