Results of Digg Backlinks and Blog Commenting...

Just thought I'd let you know on my progess with using the techniqes which have been mentioend about posting links back to my site from Digg, Flickr, and other sites - well, it seems to be doing the trick.

I have a particular term which users are typing in to find my blog, and it was consistently in 11-20th spot on Google.

Then after a bit of work, it was 10th for a long while... and now I am 5th - so my little old blog is competing directly which some big boys out there who directly offer the service which I am an affilliate for.

Fingers crossed with more work I'll be Number One.. my target, perhaps unrealistically, is Feb 2009.

How competitive is the phrase?

digg, flickr,, and other sites >>.. which are the other sites , please?


Regards

Yeh this does work. I used some of the submission services people are selling on this forum and for a particular word I was ranked around 7th, I had a look today and I'm sitting in number 3 out of 3million.

I had the submissions done yesterday and jumped 4 places in 24hrs. Pretty happy with that.

Be interesting to see if it holds. I've seen bumps as a result, then eventual drops.

Sure this stuff works, you just have to remember that to keep it going you have to keep it going.

That sounds redundant and simple, and it is, but it's also the truth. If you keep showing your site love then Big G will too.

Keep adding content and keep getting those easy links. The SE's will see this and respect the work with rising rankings.

Stop adding content and links and you'll soon start falling in SERPs.

There's nothing about ranking that requires a Brain Surgeon or Rocket Scientist, it's just a matter of dedication and focus.

Good job and good luck!

looks like flickr is no follow...where are you posting?
