Get google rank #1 in two days with black hat

Can someone explain this to me?


For over a year, I’ve been building backlinks for a client in the rent-a-car industry in a small city. We’ve outranked big players like Carwiz, Europcar, etc. However, there’s one local rent-a-car company that’s cemented in the first position — Google literally never moves them.


My client keeps bouncing between positions 3 and 10, with the highest rank being #3.


I use the same backlink strategies for other clients, and they get locked into top positions.


The competitor’s website looks like it was built in 2010. It’s obvious they’ve done black hat SEO, but I don’t know which method. Is it possible Google hasn’t caught them for almost two years?
I assume you're targeting 'City + Car Rental' keywords.There are usually a few key reasons for this kind of "cemented" ranking. I suggest checking them one by one:

On-Page Optimization (Most Likely): Since your backlink strategy is usually effective and competition in small cities is generally lower, On-Page SEO can be the deciding factor. I’d recommend double-checking their URLs, Title Tags, and local keyword density compared to your client's.

Also, It’s possible their links are simply higher quality or more "local" than they appear. I suggest using a tool like Ahrefs or Moz to reverse-engineer their backlink profile. See exactly where they are getting their juice from—you might find some local gems you've missed.

If the first two points don't reveal a gap, the issue might be User Signals. If that old site has been the "default" choice for a decade, their brand search volume and Click-Through Rate might be keeping them at #1. If Google sees everyone searching for them by name or clicking their result consistently, it’s hard to unseat them. This is much tougher to beat, and honestly, there’s no quick fix for established brand authority.
 
They rank fast by exploiting temporary trust gaps and borrowed signals, knowing Google boosts first and penalizes later so it’s a short-lived rise, not a contradiction.
 
New domains jumping to #1 is usually borrowed authority + short-term exploitation. It works briefly, then collapses. The blast vs drop debate comes down to context and velocity.
 
I have ranked reddit threads with 4 hours for my businesses in Google. This is a legit option. Although you need the correct resources and it's not your website ranking but an intermediary for it. Might be of use, idk
 
hello guys,

i’m working on a project where i need to hit page #1 on google with my domain, even if the domain is at risk and might get taken down fast. i know the consequences, that’s fine, what can i do or service to use? i need it blackhat not white hat

what i don’t get is how someone can launch a site with a brand new domain (like registered yesterday) and the next day it’s already ranking first, this has been done by a competitor guy. i’ve heard about things like 301 redirects, churn and burn, cloaking, etc. so far i only tried backlink farming, but it didn’t give me the results i’m looking for or maybe i need 400k backlinks at one idk.

on one hand, some methods say that blasting a lot of backlinks will make a site rank fast. on the other hand, people say doing that will just make it drop rank down. so how is that not contradictory?

how do people actually make a domain rank fast using a lot of cheap backlinks, even if it’s only temporary?
What you’re seeing is usually short-term manipulation where people lean on pre-existing authority or temporary signals, not some magic trick with brand new domains. those sites often burn fast once the algo catches up, which is why methods sound contradictory — they work briefly, then collapse. personally I think chasing that kind of quick win is risky and noisy, but yeah it explains how they spike then disappear just as fast.
