How does site ranks in google without backlinks?

[7th Sense]

You can't rank without backlinks mate. You need to do some off page optimization for first page

 

[THUNDERELVI]

You are still in 2013 mate, website usage, time on site, bounce rate etc are a ranking factor now. There is case study on this http://www.matthewwoodward.co.uk/tutorials/rank-website-fake-usage-metrics-no-backlinks-required/

Of course backlinks and onpage seo is important nobody said it isn't.

Google has 200+ ranking factors, I didn't say they are not. They always were even before 2013. The thing you don't get is each of these factors has a certain "weight" in the ranking algorithm.

If you do perfect on-page and off-page SEO, then no competitor can outrank you just with "good" stats on website usage, time on site, bounce, etc... It won't happen. These factors come into play and have a bit more weight when fighting for #1-10 spots on page 1. But if you don't go to page 1 in the first place, talking about them is like talking what will happen if we travel to another galaxy without even inventing a spaceship capable of doing that in the first place.

Plus you should optimize those things you mentioned not for Google, but to make you money anyway. If your visitors leave as soon as they visit your page, that means your page sucks and you just lost a potential sale. Same with time usage - if your visitors stay more on site, the chances of them buying something increase, etc...

And please don't get me started on Mathew's website. His tutorials were awesome when he first started and I still recommend a couple of them even today to people, but then he became like any other IM-er, who writes crap just to get affiliate sales and that includes his case studies too.

I see this fairly often recently, my guess is massive PBN or possibly that fake traffic thing with pandabot I keep meaning to do but never get past the shit pandabot UI.

Not possible unless you have some unknown niche that no one is targeting. (Like local niches maybe)

 

[HoneyHelper]

Yes it's possible if the keywords are really less competitive; you have at least 6000 visitors per month; your content is not copied; your content is actually relevant to your keywords and you show ad-sense ads on your site!

Cheers!
HONEY!

 

[royserpa]

Sure you can do that. If the monthly search volume is about 10 ...

OMG! Then serpbook is extremely wrong!

Look at the rankings of this site that ranked without backlinks!

God, there must be some other cause that gets me 2k UVs a day! :/

Yeah, create your awesome "King Content" and rank number 5 for 1900 search volume in 6 months? No offense, but time is money and we only live once!

There is a backlinks column too, Please show that!

How about #9 for a combined monthly searches of 123.500 for 2 keywords? Now imagine how much EASIER his job is to take those keywords to the top instead of blasting backlinks from day 1?

Hi BHW,

How does website ranked in Google in without backlinks? is it possible to place a site in 1st page in google without any off page optimization tactics?

It can be possible only by using fresh, unique, trending, interesting content. Invest in your content and make it more meaningful to the users to come back to your site again and again.

He buys backlinks, hit top 3, gets reported by competitors and Boom.... 6 months down the drain.

Like I said, no offense but as long as its still (insanely) lucrative to churn out websites with spun content that takes 2 days to make the above option is simply a waste of time and resources. People are free to go with their own strategy by all means, but for me it all comes down to one simple little principle..

What you put in VS what you get in return. Call me selfish and greedy but I go with what makes me the most money in the shortest amount of time!

Agree with that...But I prefer Long-Term....I am not good at writing Articles so I go your way

You obviously either have never done this before or did a terrible job buying links. My competitors can report me ALL DAY LONG, as long as I leave no footprints and do everything natural, those reports will be thrown to trash. Of course if you buy links for $5 on fiverr, expect a de-index if your site is reviewed manually.

Also Google does NOT have the manpower to check EVERY single website and keyword combination out there. I don't know what the propaganda fed you, but there is a reason an algorithm is used and not people to put websites on top and review them.

Only on extremely competitive niches you will be manually reviewed; for saturated keywords. And you are not targeting those keywords, because you cannot rank them w.o backlinks anyway (remember the whole point of this thread is if it's possible to rank certain keywords w.o backlinks) For others, you will only get algorithmic penalties. Do you really think a Google employee will manually review the top 10 for: "how do I get the cheapest blenders on the market" ? No!

Also, there are millions of competitor's reports every day, most are filtered and thrown to trash, only some make it through to manual reviewers and I told you above the criteria. If Google would review each case individually, most of the people on the planet would be employed by now, so your logic on competitor report is seriously flawed!

Last thing I want to say is, it doesn't take 6 months to rank a keyword without backlinks. It takes maximum 1 month if YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING! Start reading around and you will find out that I'm not making "extreme" statements.

I got a site which brings in good money without lifting a finger.
What did i do ?

1) Old .com domain name
2) Keywords in the domain name
3) Long one page unique hand written content
4) Getting a great bounce rate because of #3

 

[kindarthur]

@ Op, As few others said, it can be possible. But, only on non - competitive keywords. If you want to rank your website without obtaining back links, the keywords you are targeting should have low competition and obviously low traffic.

He must be using the new Pewep Package.

Pewep has mastered ranking sites just by power of suggestion and if it needs a little more kick, he gets a little help from the underworld.

Well this is just 1 site.

Took me like 20 minutes to write the articles, nothing else needed.

Of course I have sites that have backlinks that are ranking in tough niches but this is just 1 site that took 20 minutes of work and the rest is just waiting.

LOL it would be stupid to buy links, i dont have any control over, to this site.

I'm building a 200 sites pbn for this site and get it #1 for all keywords.

In 6 months this site will be a money making machine. It's already making money, but it will be a lot more

How about #9 for a combined monthly searches of 123.500 for 2 keywords? Now imagine how much EASIER his job is to take those keywords to the top instead of blasting backlinks from day 1?

Exactly, now I started a challenge on building a 200 sites pbn to rank this site even higher.

Obviously taking #1 for those keywords will be EXTREMELY EASY as its already in #9 and #1 is just a few spots higher.

This site will rank for more keywords as well but for now everything has been done naturally.

He clearly states he used 6-8 months to rank without backlinks http://www.blackhatworld.com/blackh...te-350-day-december-2015-a-5.html#post8034804 and after all, it was him I was replying to, no?

Dude, you are free to rank without backlinks all you want all im saying is when ROI is a thousand times better when you use them that is what I choose!

 

[shanzay86]

You can't rank good keywords without backlinks unless your site is established in the same niche.
