It's an amazing feelings. Last night, I posted Latest Updated top SEO Forums List - 17th June, 2008 in my SEO Blog. Within an hour, it showed up in first 5 results in both Google.com and Google.co.uk for "top seo forum". Can you believe it ... no tricks! Just a simple blog ... that's all! By the way, everyone may find it same place ... please search for "top seo forum" and let me know which place you find it. I'm searching from London.
thats what i was saying.. link building directory submission and buying 10000 links doesnt work i mean it works.. but not the way it means it works... gaining high search engine position is its about content and relavancy.. and how many ppl clicking on the links or search engine position one two three link is more then enough from big brand forums or social bookmark sites create a buzz.. or make a tool.. and see yourself in no1 within 24hours.. after that see ppl linking you back..
I'm in Washington and I didn't see that page showing up at all but I did see the homepage (www.hasan-online.com/) show up on page 18.
That's the power of blog it get indexed quickly but it will also disappear so quick if it's not having a good backlink.
Frankly speaking is it bringing you traffic .. if it isnt then i dont see the benefit of it bieng first or last
