    Hi folks, not very good with SEO so I am wondering if anyone can help me with this.

    One of my sites: www.use-your-equity.com is ranked:
    #1 on msn for "Use your equity"
    #96 on msn for "Home equity loans" <- very competitive :eek:

    from a SEO point of view, why is this, and how can I get even higher for the term "Home Equity Loans"?

    Thanks a lot!!!!

    It's because MSN is relatively easy to rank on at the moment for a chosen phrase. Enjoy it while it lasts because they will be changing their algo very soon if they haven't already begun.

    Do the usual onpage and offpage seo.

    Sounds cliche, but thats all thats really needed ;)

    Read old (and new) dp threads for tips.

    To rank #1 on MSN you just need to buy the hyphenated domain of that phrase. That's it. I wouldn't be surprised you'd rank #1 for 'Microsoft' if you buy microsoft-microsoft-microsoft.com.

    When you do, let us know how well the 2 visitors you get convert...
