SEO competition - how hard would it be?

[marcgenesis]

Hello people,

I've been reading the clickbank launch jacking thread and thought I would give it a try. I found a product I could put on my current website (new, nothing really ranking) to promote / review.

I ran the product name in Market Samurai and Ultimate Niche Finder, and I would like some help regarding the competition. Here are the Market Samurai results :



The fourth row is the product's official website.

I'm having some difficulties with the following : In UNF, when I analyze the keyword it tells me that it would be Hard to rank... and I just ran it again while typing this post and it now tells me it is Very Easy! Awesome! It just adds to my confusion.

I see in MS that there is no BLP (page backlinks) for any of the ranking pages (either on Majestic Historic or Majestic Fresh Data), some on-page SEO are full, but without any BLP I am wondering if it would be easy to rank.

The thing I am concerned with is the BLD (Domain Backlinks). Is it relevant for the websites that are not promoting the product directly on their home page?

Thanks in advance.

I would say reasonable easy, seeing as no site is actively targeting the keyword.

My approach would be caution - if the keyword is not really optimised by anyone, you don't want to stand out by building loads of targeted links.

Should be fairly easy to rank IMHO.

if the keyword is not really optimised by anyone, you don't want to stand out by building loads of targeted links.

I think the reason for this is because the product hasn't launch officially yet.

So if I build backlinks you suggest I do part keyword in anchor and random words (Click Here, Read More, First Name, etc) and plain URL?

Yea of course. Keep keyword at 20-30% max, and build high quality links, at a steady rate.

Got to learn how to do that now!
