    You've been fighting your main competitor for over a year .. your No.2 and they are No.1 and all of a sudden you become No.1

    It just happened to me and I celebrated with an nice ice cold can of Harp :D

    payoutwindow - I never thought about that :D It's not a high traffic keyword phase, but it's brought around 100 uniques a day in position 2 so we'll see how much that increases.

    vlead - good feeling isn't it.. just hope it holds out now :D

    Congratulations

    I should be smart enough to choose a topic that doesn't have millions of results infront of me for my target keywords ;)

    I discovered a one word search term came in at 10 out of 16 million just the other day. It won't lead to anything; I don't think but still; I was impressed.

    Congrats on getting number 1 wwhhomes. Whats the keyword and URL? I'd be interested in hearing the kind of results you get from going from number 2 to number 1. :)

    Congrats on getting # 1. I am still fighting my # 1 competitor but I am not having to do much since they are kind of doing the work for me. I figure it will take about 3 months and I could or should be able to take over that position from them unless G changes its algo again and throws another shell into the fire.

    I've actually got #1 for quite a few key phrases. Unfortunately their ones that get searched for about twice a year. :( Still feels good to be #1 though. :) The one's people actually search for is getting better though with the things I've learned here plus the ad network.

    Nope....Haven't gotten into slavery yet :) Why...Are you in the market? :) We have been responsible for about 500 or so marriages so far though. Not bad for a rather small service like ours.
