Just wanted to make a quick Oh-I'm-so-happy-post.

So yeah I started a website. Launched it, nowhere to be seen.

Built some more pages to fill up the site, but still nowhere as of course right?

However, I have spent the past week doing heavy onsite and on page SEO optimization. Did some careful selective backlink building and....

Finally on page 10!

Yeah yeah yeah....whatever right? But not for me. It's a high competition keyword and I can see my website!

Time to celebrate and make a doll!
 
Everybody put their pants on one leg at a time, but don't stop now.
 
Congratz, what do you define as highly competitive keyword? I'm working on my own medium to hard kw.

keep grinding!
 
Well, let me put it this way. It's a search term that's used for a local service. Let's say for instance...Chicago Motorcycle Repair. I've been using SEO Powersuite and the backlinks the top ten have are pretty strong. They have been around for years, one site has been around for at least 10 years. When I use Google Keyword Tool it also says that it's high competition.

At any rate when I first started optimizing it I got it to page 10. Maybe bounced a bit going down into page 12 or so.

I've been continuing to better my on site/on page optimization as well as continuing to build backlinks.

I am now on page 4 from 10. On spot away from page 3.

So exciting I think.
