Little Coop Experiment

Well I figured I post this because when I was deciding if Coop was worth my time I couldn't find any definite results to say it really worked. Well so I signed up and I figured I'd run a quick little experiement to see what sort of results it yeilded.

OK simply pointed about 1.2K weight at one of my sites www.rsboards.com with the keywords in link being "Runescape Forums" and over the space of just over a week my site went from 27th in Google for the search term "Runescape Forums" to 6th, which I consider pretty suggestive evidence that the Coop even at low levels can go a long way to improving rankings within Google.

Now I don't consider this conclusive evidence but I will setup a few more experiments over the coming weeks to test this across a few more keywords, and I will also and apply it to a few more competitive search terms.

 

I think that's the best way to use co-op, adding smaller weights over a longer period of time.

 

"OK simply pointed about 1.2K weight "
Is there a way to point a specific amount of weight?

Example. I have 50million weight, but in starting a new site, I would like to only point a little to the site. Understand?

 

There's a 'set weight limit' option in the edit settings menu.
