    Have you ever stared at yourself in the mirror, and thought, I don't look to bad. But then you see yourself on a recent family video and you say, Thar's me!

    Well, I am at a loss for what I need to do in order to get my hobby site going. I think it has real potential.
    I just can't seam to break the top ten spot on Google for the KW - Branson Shows
    And, not in the top 20 for the KW - Branson

    I will not use thousands of links I have available for Serp advancement (most would be from same IP anyways)

    www.Bransoncritic.org has me wondering what to do next.

    Your thoughts will be very appreciated.

    You can see the stats here.

    For Google I would make more incoming links with the anchor text "Branson Shows" then.

    Do you see any problems with the structure? URL's? I think I am blind to this site. If it is just links I may go out and buy some more. I am spending a few hundred a month now on some pr7 links (advertizing, not just for PR boost; for the anal on G rules). ;)

    My suggestion is to get outgoing links into these resources. And find sites with the Branson theme to feature you. Be more specific now. Maybe there are some family forums and you can make a post in a thread called Branson something that you start and have the post or your siggy deeplink.

    On your navigation bar on top left your anchor text is "Branson Shows:".

    I am not an expert on special characters but it may help to remove the : from the anchor text.

    Also I am at work and I cant view page source from some odd reason but it doesnt seem that you have a <h1> anywhere with the term Branson Shows in it. That may help for you too.

    And yes more links with that anchor text if that is what you are after will help with ranking for that keyword.

    Good call on the H1 on index, I must have deleted that.

    Great look, I forgot I have no outgoing links on index, except my site.

    I think he means to get these sites to link to you not you link to them. I dont know I am confused. :)
