I'd like to start off by stating that I have been visiting BHW now for a few years and have learned everything I need to know from this forum. Search engines have adapted the way they rank sites (particularly the big G). I compete with multi-million dollar companies for a keyword with over 15 million results. Most of my competitors invest heavily on advertising (Adwords suggested a budget of $315 per day)
Here's how I did it:
Month 1
1. Used social bookmark services (see the services for sale) x 100 bookmarks to index the site and major pages on Google.
2. Adjusted meta tags, keywords and content on the website to target desired keywords.
3. Wrote 3 articles (500 words each) and submitted it to 20 article directories (using services on services for sale page)
Total cost: $25
Month 2
1. Posted high PR blog posts after checking high PR links on competitor sites using SEO for Firefox (great tool to spy on competitor links with the click of a button)
2. Paid for 50 .edu profile links on services page
3. Paid for 100 social bookmarks, this time using a different provider in a different country.
Total Cost: $40
Month 3
At this point, I was ranking between 3-5 for my desired keyword. I submitted an xml sitemap to Google (should have done this in month 1)
1. Paid for 400 social bookmarks
2. Paid for 1 PR6 link on relevant site ($90)
3. Paid for Xrummer campaign of 5000 forum submissions ($35)
Total cost: $125
During the entire process I ensured that I posted one or two articles per week, added social pages on squidoo and free blog sites and ensured that I had a growing number of high PR links.
It took exactly 4 months in total before I was ranked #1 for my desired keyword and ranked between #1 and #3 for incidental keywords that were related but not targeted.
Hops this helps you!
P.S - I ended up buying software which only added to my budget. I now run Bookmarking demon and xrummer myself - the complexities in ensuring that you have private proxies etc are worth the investment if you're willing to spend enough time and have several sites. Gotta know what you're doing though!
