Why is this blog ranked so well in G?

http://www.1stmakemoneyonline.com/ is ranked 9th in google serps for: make money online

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=make+money+online&btnG=Google+Search

Site is PR1
has 725 links (No substantial high quality links from what i can see)

I cant see why its ranked so well, can anyone put their finger on it?

 

from what i can see its that it has very relevant links

 

The domain name has a lot to do with that site having good google rankings

 

Put his url in yahoo's site explorer and he has alot of backlinks from article directories.

 

Blogs are SEO friendly as links are embedded within Content and Serach engines like such link placements as they consider them natural

 

All valid points that i have already considered but I still dont think its enough to justify that ranking. Of course i could be wrong

 

even I think that it is due to the domain name and maybe using those keywords in the blog articles.

 

Keyword in the domain name is not a major factor.

They have written plenty of articles that have been picked up and published by other sites. This is why they rank where they do.

 

I agree with allen there.. its definitely not the keywords in the url... in google that isn't really a factor. Maybe in yahoo but not google IMO

 

It must be mainly due to the article submissions, looking back at the links there are far more article links then I first saw. Even so, I for one have underestimated their power.

 

its incoming links are relevant

 

It's only coming up at 18 for me.

 

go to yahoo and type linkdomain:http://www.1stmakemoneyonline.com/ to see all links coming into the website.
