Whether it's blogging, eCommerce (perfumes, clothing etc.), social networks etc. there are tens, hundreds of such websites in any country. Most do a similar great SEO, have good content matching the domain's profile, but Google can't display all first page. Not even 2nd, or 3rd.
But I wasn't talking about that.
First page is for spammers. Those that pay for backlinks, or belong to big packs of websites managed by the same SEO company, or register on thousands of backlinks websites.
@parfumeria33ro great content+no traffic=dead website? first off all you have to consider does your content match with the theme of your site? If you have a great content about 'how to catch a big fish' but you placed it on a site about 'how to train your dog', then Google will see your content and site as irrelevant. If you want to compete with the big dogs, you got to build your site first, make it big in its own world, build your brand, promote your brand. Thats how great SEOs do their job.
I use new no nonsense software to direct my web traffic if you have a website and want to capitalize don't hesitate to check it out, here is the link hhtttp://urlm(.)in/ifjs---remove brackets and ht from the link for it to work.
Yes, more white hat SEO please! And I think it'll even exist in more than 5 years. There's actually nothing wrong with SEO just as long as it isn't black hat SEO.
As long as it's about managing a website's content SEO is a good thing.
:)
But in reality SEO is dirty. Doing a great job managing my website through a clean, fair SEO won't ever compete to other website owners that spend time and money to spam. Their websites will always get better results than mine... Better yet, their sites will get some results, mine not. As someone said in another GoogleWebmasterHelp video, great content + no traffic = dead website. Spammers always get the big traffic.
@niverjeff10 Don't let keyword competition put you off SEO. One tip is to take one of those "good keywords" that have a lot of competition and look for long tail key-phrases that contain that keyword. Long tail phrases typically have much less competition and optimising for that phrase will also help optimise for the "good keywords" contained within it. But I agree that email marketing can be very effective for making money online.
I don't even bother with SEO because there is way too much competition for all the good keywords, I don't have time to do link building and wait around for my site to rank. The world of E-commerce is very tough and new ideas are quickly copied. The fastest way to make money online today is through opt in email marketing & PPC, But not PPC through SE's Im talking about PPC on pages of other websites that earn large amounts of traffic. Think about it.
@Trian3 And how many are winning that game? And a game it is. How many Wikipedia entries thump organizations in various business markets? You're spending how much to be top of all this? Wikipedia actually goes against the rules, and they don't play the game, yet they are everywhere. That's not skills, that's the nature of the algos, which you cannot beat. SEO is, for the most part, meta tags, page restructuring, pointing to your own site, and trying to convince other people. None relevant.
@BeeRich33 SERP1 is not the end-game; #1 slot on SERP1 is. Which is entirely possible for even a relatively competitive search term, but only with the proper SEO skills. To say that SEO is a waste of time is only so if you're going about it all wrong (ie spinning your wheels, getting nowhere) or if you're trying to rank for the wrong keyword terms (non-buying KWs). And what exactly do you mean by the statement, "you only need a small fraction of a search term to be optimized"?
@Trian3 Relying on SEO as a valid tool for promotion is just plain silly. Given the fact that SERP1 is the goal, you only need a small fraction of a search term to be optimized anyway. Huge waste of time.
@BeeRich33 That's a highly unlikely scenario. There is such a huge pool of ever changing content on the internet that grows by the minute that there's no way for all of it to at once find a point of perfect optimization.
