Hi Everyone, I own Cool Fonts and as you can see by my anchor text I'm trying to get #1 position for the term Cool Fonts. It get's about 150 searches per day. I'm onto the 3rd page (http://www.google.com/search?q=Cool+Font&shl=en&safe=off&as_qdr=all&start=30&sa=N) and I want to be 1st page at #1. So far the only work I've done is: 1. Put keyphrase in site title. 2. Put keywords in site content. 3. Get a few links from other sites (about 3 PR2 and one PR5) with Cool Fonts anchor text. 4. My site has 600 backlinks according to iwebtool.com so I just got alot of natural links. Then I left the site for about a month to let everything settle and see how much SE traffic I get. I'm a predicted PR3 with the next update. Now I want to know how to get into the #1 position. I have just hired someone to submit my site to 500 directories (100 PR5's in there) using title text that contains the keyphrase I want to rank for. What else should I do? Just keep building quality backlinks? Any tips are greatly appreciated.
There are two types of search engine optimization. Onpage Optimization Offpage Optimization Properly planned offpage optimization will make the difference between your website ranking #900, and ranking #1 on Google! Offpage optimization basically consists of all of the ranking factors that are NOT located on your webpage, that the search engines look at when ranking a website. These include: 1 Which websites link to you 2 The number of websites linking to you 3The Google of the website linking to you 4 The page title of the website linking to you 5 The anchor text used in the link linking to you 6 The number and type of links linking to the website that's linking to you. 7 The number of outbound links on the website that is linking to you 8 The total number of links on the website that is linking to you 9 Whether or not the websites linking to you are deemed by Google as an authority website. 10 The IP Address of the websites linking to you. ? Plus some other things that we'll get to later...
I suggest a few things. Extend your domain registration as long as you can. This tells the search engines, you are not going anywhere for a while. Then i would build some high PR links, and a couple hundred low PR links. A good way to build the low PR links is in the BST section on DP, buy blog posts from networks. Just be sure to tell them I sent you coz then I get a discount booyah!
