7 Secrets To Top Search Engine Rankings (Yes, Even 1 Positions!) For SEO Dummies

while I achieve such incredible rankings without being some SEO guru or even obsessively optimizing my site?
yes it is possible

Now I honestly believe there are only two MAIN things which support seo and in the process, reward your website with the high rankings you desire.

These two things are Keyword Rich Content and Targeted Back Links which we'll talk about later...

Here then are 7 powerful secrets you can use to model your website after to explode your high search engine rankings!

Step 1: Determine Highly Searched Keyword 

Determine highly searched and targeted keywords/keyword phrases related to your site and put them into a list. Here're the tools to use: 

http://instantmarketingsecrets.com/keyword.htm : compares results of keyword searches from Overture and Wordtracker and displays them side by side. 

http://smtek.info/cgi-bin/keywordtool.cgi : allows you to find relevant hot keywords with a single click...very cool very useful. 

http://www.goodkeywords.com : excellent software to find targeted keywords in Overture and various other engines. 

Step 2: Register Keyword Rich Domain Names 

While there've been contrasting arguments about whether having keywords in your domain helps, I strongly feel it does. The same goes for dashes between words in the domain.

Use these to source for domain name ideas:

You can also register your domains for a price of a peanuts per year here:

Step 3: Use Your Targeted Keywords In Your Copy 

Use the list of keywords in step 1 within your website copy, especially in the title, headline and first paragraph. The important thing is to make them flow smoothly within the context of the copy so prospects will not find it weird.

Step 4: Insert Keyword Rich Relevant Content

Next, build up your site's content with relevant topics containing your keywords. Don't worry, here are some ways to get instant content: 

- Posting suitable articles that contain your keywords. These can either be your own or from article directories like

 http://www.ezinearticle.com ,

 http://www.goarticles.com or

 http://webpronews.com 

- Posting newsletter issues in an archive online if you write any 

- Do reviews and commentaries on related products and services in your market as content 

Step 5: Aggressively Acquire Targeted Back Links 

This is the second most important (some say it's the first) factor to note after targeted and relevant content. 

Get as many good quality incoming links from other sites as you can, believe me, this will really make a huge difference to your rankings. These links should come from sites in your market and preferably those with high PageRanks of 5 and above. 

Use http://www.webmasterbrain.com/prog/ to search for sites with top rankings in Google for your specified keyword/keyword phrases. It also reveals their individual PageRanks next to their listings. 

An excellent resource to check PageRank can also be found at http://rankwhere.com. 

Alternatively, you can download Alexa toolbar from http://ww.alexa.com as it also shows Alexa traffic ranking for any site. This is very useful for seeking high traffic link partners.

Step 6: Hand Submit Your Site To The Top Directories and Search Engines

 There's no point in using those 'submit to millions' services as only a few search engines really matter. 

Using those services may actually cause your site to be penalized by these major engines. 

In fact if you've done enough important reciprocal linkings, you don't even need to submit your sites as spiders which crawl your link partner sites (already indexed) will pick up your link easily. 

However, if you must submit, do it by hand at these directories and search engines here: 

Google

Yahoo

Ask Jeeves

LookSmart/Zeal

Mama

Open Directory

All The Web

Inktomi

Step 7: Tune Your Site For Maximum Optimization 

The final step would be to constantly monitor and analyze your website traffic against rankings. This is so you can review and tweak for further improvement in your rankings. 

I hope this article will prove highly useful to you. Do not be scare away by SEO, it's simple once you follow the above system. While these steps are not everything you can do, it'll be enough to get your site ranked very well for the targeted keywords you chose.
