First Time On First Page... FIRST DAY!

    Well, I purchased the domain http://tourthemes.com and http://9630themes.com when rumors surrounding the release of a new BlackBerry cellphone started swirling.
    'Tour' was the nickname and 9630 was the supposed device number.
    I took my chance right away by nabbing the 'themes' domain because this is the BIGGEST thing with BlackBerry users. We love our themes and aren't shy to pay for them either.
    I made the site live about a week ago and finally the Blog was recognized (or whatever you want to call it) by Google.
    Today was the first day I started receiving search engine hits. It started a few hours ago actually. I checked at 2 p.m. on my lunch break (for activity) and there were no search engine hits. I just checked again a few minutes ago and whola! 53 Search Engine hits on 9 Keywords!
    This is going to be big as soon as Themes for the device start being developed. BlackBerry Devs are currently creating the program that will allow people (anyone) to make themes and it looks like my site will be the go-to site, I already have contacts with some of the best BlackBerry theme developers so wish me luck :).
    Breakdown:
    1.
    blackberry tour themes: 32 FIRST PAGE 3RD RESULT!
    2.
    blackberry tour theme: 8 FIRST PAGE 3RD RESULT!
    3.
    tour themes: 6 FIRST PAGE 2ND RESULT!
    4.
    themes for blackberry tour: 2 FIRST PAGE 4TH RESULT!

    Thanks a lot man. What do you mean by 'high number of paying rates?'
    I don't know of too many tips. I just used the SEO plugin which helped a lot.

    It is actually a great business to buy domains for terms like that as soon as rumors start. When the whole iPhone talk begun those domains were are bought up within seconds :)

    Lol people said the same about my last site and it still consistently gets 300+ google hits a day.
    I'm on first page because of my domain name, not a honey moon.
    The hits will only get better, not worse.
    Today, the first full day I've been on google ended with 239 hits.
    No I'm not getting top hits from quotes.
    I'm perfectly happy with the stats right now seeing as how my site has no content. Just two blog posts that indicate the content is coming soon (no themes have been developed yet as the software hasn't been released to make the themes with).

    Thanks a lot guys and gals. I'll keep you updated.

    Great going dude!!

    One suggestion-The bounce rate is slightly on the higher side... not to discourage you but it could be a problem in the future..

    Yeah, like I said there's only 2 posts so far so I'm not expecting the bounce rate to be low.
    As soon as I start getting content it will drop dramatically.
    Thanks a lot.

    Congrats mate, usually the domains will help a ton when trying to rank for your keywords.
