Hi all, massive thanks in advance for any help or suggestions you may have.
My site has 12 niches but ranks #2 for a KW in concern
My competitor has 1 niche and same KW in concern
Yes this rings alarm bells.
Im trying to out do them for this keyword phrase!
1) my site is well written and unique content
Their site is very poor content wise and KW wise
3)They have 200 backlinks of poor quality from stuffy/spammy sites and most not relative sites either.
I have 250 links with many good quality and they are still rising as the blasts are recent so not all indexed yet. (.edu and high PR etc)
4) my site has just shot from #7 to #2 in last few weeks but they have not moved for a longtime and i know they are my only solid competition now.
My site has been worked on and tweeked regurlarly but theirs has not been touched for months and all their links etc were out sourced to india after some investigation. My links were too but i have many more now and will have even more later.
Their domain age is only a few months more than mine (both 2008)
They have a PR3!!!!!! for a load of tat!
I have a PR1 homepage and 0 for my niche internal page in concern which is at #2 behind theres.
Most of my high PR links are relevant but point at the homepage but it is my internal niche page which ranks because of it as G can obviously read internal pages and rank accordingly.
I dont have time for article writing and i cannot afford to be penalised or sandboxed for badly spun articles.
Where do i go from here please?
I have G danced for weeks but i know i will not naturally beat these guys and i have settled at #2.
Do i need links to the internal page or not? i have never been keen on this as internal pages are often changed or deleted in the future and my homepage links have always worked for me.
The site is wordpress based so my seo tactics work well.
Any comments are most appreciated and your advice as to what to do next.
I rely on this main site for my income and cannot risk getting banned.
Its taken me a long time to decide to turn blackhat and now that the domain is 3 years old nearly, i need to know what sort of linits i can push.
thanks guys
