This is part of my other local journey site journey but thought it warranted a separate thread for discussion. Some of you might've remembered the Rhinoplasty Plano challenge couple of years back where Kyle Roof could rank with just Latin text and optimized using Page Optimizer Pro. I enjoy running test and knew local was a fairly low competition space so wanted to see if this is still possible.
About a week ago I setup a simple one page site with 1,500 words for a keyword with 90 searches (this may sound like not a lot but for a local term this is decent, local search is crazy inaccurate and 90 searches should hopefully bring in 100+ leads a month which is probably worth $x,xxx a month). I optimized the content with Page Optimizer Pro (I'm not affiliated with this tool in any way but I'm really enjoying using it, I've used it on a couple of sites although it's too early to discuss ranking influences). I managed to score 100/100 for this piece of content and set the site up with GSC and an indexing tool.
It's been a week and I'd sort of given up thinking Google had crawled the site and discounted it as spam but I just refreshed my rank tracker and it's finally indexed and main keyword is sitting at #38
To be honest, I'm not expecting rankings to hold but who knows. Another test I'd like to try is just with random generated text (English, not Lorem Ipsum) in case Google has perhaps included indexing filters for Latin text after the experiment couple years back, idk.
I'm going to wait a week and see if rankings climb/hold, then re-evaluate and start building some links and just see what happens.
