    Our life coach site is taking it very slow on the rise... #7 for allinanchor on 'life coach' and #200+ for serps for some time.

    Any seo advice for the Life Coach?

    Actually if you use the mcdar keyword tool it paints a fairly interesting picture. (site: www.life-coach.org.au keywords: life coach)

    Looking at the results - I'd say you would need to increase the KW's within your content, get some higher PR backlinks.

    Thanks for your feedback Darren.

    Our keyword frequency is already very high (and prominant) so I'm reluctant to increase it.

    But I will definately persue more strong PR backlinks.

    Dominic - I have the same problem with 'vacation rentals' I don't want the site to look over the top with keyword riddled text - I've gone for higher PR links instead, and that seems to be working.

    The site has climbed from #500+ to #38 within the last two months.

    I know our sites are not themed the same but I don't mind placing a link on my links page, which is PR5. Let me know if your interested.

    You've picked a highly competetive keyword...

    "It's 300 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and I'm wearing sunglasses."

    "Hit it!"

    I've linked from three sites, all themed to a degree. One currently has PR4 on the link page (www.weightlosscoaching.co.uk/resources.php) and the others used to, before I changed 'em over from link.htm (www.trance-formation.co.uk/resources.php and www.hypnosisaudiocds.com/resources.php)

    Maybe I should do an article about coaching on the weightloss site, with some links from the article text<g> Lets get you to the top for life coach :D

    Adam, you rock... not only is that my fav. quote from one of my fav. movies, but that was very generous to donate links to the cause.

    Anyone else feel like supporting a worthy cause (see sig file)?

    Damn us West Yorkshire members are generous! :D

    I'll get on with the link tonight Dominic - don't worry about returning the favour, it'll make the link stronger! (I think!)

    Aye, reckon so :D

    Maybe we should propose this for the SEO challenge :D

    And similarly don't worry about the reciprocal linking... I'll donate some google juice for the sake of experiment.

    You know I had a long day today, but stuff like this just keeps me going. The fact that people are willing to support our efforts just fires me more and more.

    Thanks all. I wish there were more people like you who were so generous. :)

    I'm targeting three phrases with this site: life coach, life coaching and personal life coach... with those pages.

    I added a lot of content to the life coaching page to make it a bit longer. Also gained a pr7 link directly on 'life coaching.'

    Hopefully this will help but no movement yet.

    Thanks to all who have given advice and donated links so far.

    No problem being an aussie site, we are Sydney based and it doesn't matter what country domain extension the link comes from anyway. Not sure what you are saying?
