    I must be doing something right for once :)

    I have finally made it to page 1 in the SERP's for one of my sites that I am building up and for a single keyword!

    The keyword is 'Merimbula' (my home town FYI :) ) and the site is

    http://www.magicalmerimbula.com.au

    Hopefully I can stay there, or even improve on it.

    You guys have been great helping me to get there along the way. :)

    Good job. What about traffic? Google Keyword tools says "90,500" searches per month

    1st place in 1st page improve traffic ;)

    sorry to ruin all your dreams, but i have a website that it's in 1st page in google for many keywords and i still can't get more then 80-100 unique visitors/day.

    when you will climb a litlle, you will see the results ;)

    good luck buddy !

    I must admit. Traffic has not gone up one bit yet. Still ~20 visits per day.

    maineexista looks to be right so far :)

    Congrats!!

    "sorry to ruin all your dreams, but i have a website that it's in 1st page in google for many keywords and i still can't get more then 80-100 unique visitors/day."

    Then the sites above yours are better and provide all the content that searchers needs or it's not a very searched keyword. Your site can be the number one result for "garblebucket" but if not alot of people are searching for it, you're not going to get alot of hits.

    *shrug*

    One of my sites ranks on the first page on google also, I get around 2k us per day for that one.
