Right sifting through the rankings for the keyword "seo tutorials" the other day and i came across this site. http://www[DOT]irelandseoagency[DOT]com It had appeared out of no where at rank 10 for the keyword, i was very surpised and continued to investigate further upon my investigation i made my assumption that the website was brand new as it has near to no backlinks, no page rank not even 0 a hugely high alexa rank and the whois data also confirmed it was registered one month back. I check again today and the website is now ranked 5th, can someone tell me how the hell a brand new website, with no backlinks, rubbish other statistics get to rank position 5 for such a competitive keyword. Am i missing something here? And to the owner of the site, nice site
They're not showing up in the 10 ten here, though they are close. They are using the abbreviation "SEO" a LOT on their home page though. When I checked out their incoming links, they all pointed to seochampion.com as well as a couple other sites owned by the same person. I'd be tempted to check the Google Cache for those links because I can't find them in the pages themselves, but I've got a full plate as it is.
Thanks Dan, so its not a mistake or just Google being weird, you think its just through the proper use of SEO and backlinking.
