There is one site in my industry that I can not figure out at all how they rank number 1 across the board on google, yahoo and msn. The term I am looking at is pool tables. There is another site that is number 3 across the board. This has been consistent for almost a year. Anyone have any thoughts on what they might be doing to be ranked that high and be that consistent across the board on all major engines?
domain age, trust, and a huge number of quality backlinks with "pool tables" as anchor text. this market is not that hard.. you can do it too, but why are you asking do you have a similar business/ website ? cheers.
Domain age helps and alot of back links are what you need with text with keywords in it. They should be from similar sites and topics to help your site.
