Silly SEO: Unique Valentine’s Day Gift for Grandson…
If ever there was a question that the multitudes in quest for Internet success want answered, this must be it. But we all know that even if we could crack the Google algorithm the answer would vary for every search term and in some cases what is required is, well, really not very much at all.
I’m known to lurk on a number of forums and one of the things that makes my eyes roll back in my head is to read about ‘miraculous’ near overnight Google ranking success stories. You’ve probably seen them too. The tend to read like this:
“Wowee! My new site ranks on page one of Google for my main search term after only 1 week.”
With a little effort you can easily determine that the phrases are pretty darn easy material. Usually a four or five word phrase that VERY few folks would ever type in. Somthing like:
unique valentine’s day gift for grandson
Now that shouldn’t be too hard, in fact maybe, just maybe, someone could rank for a phrase like that just by using it on a page. Anyone want to take bets?
******************************************************
Now for the update I forgot to do sooner. Of course we got to page one of Google for the phrase above. In fact we are page one of Google! See below.
