I have started keyword research 2 weeks before using market samurai. I found a keyword with average 145 searches per day for exact keyword ie. [Keyword] The keyword matrix from market samurai and SEO analysis of top ten results is shown below:

I am using completely WH techniques. I have registered domain with exact keyword. Then I researched low competition keywords, not long tail only two words keyword which does not include primary keyword. I have installed wordpress with necessary seo plugins. Then I added and pinged 8 keyword rich articles 300 to 500 words each. Then I started link building. I have started with social bookmarking submission; I have submitted home page and other pages to 20 social book marking sites. Then I have commented on related blogs with high pr. Then I have created one small link wheel with 6 spokes.

Result:
My blog is in first position for something + keyword ie, keyword with something in front. And it is in 28 and 29 position for "keyword" and keyword. I am getting 16 unique visitors per day with 92% from organic, (Google analytics result). I haven't implemented any ads so no revenue yet. My other pages are also in the 10 to 20 position for something + other keywords. The first result in screen shot is my blog.

My target:
To get top for all 10 keywords with plural form of keyword (7 keyword and 3 plural form) , according to market samurai I will get 589 unique visitor per day (SEOT result). But my target is to get constant 250 unique visitors per day. I ma going to put adsense in it. So my targeted CTR is 15% so my targeted earning is 250*0.15*0.4=15 $ per day. I am only expecting to get $0.4 per click, which I am already averaging on other sites. I am planning to get it within 2 months and also planning to scale same concept.
What you guys think, will it be easy journey?
Any suggestion will be appreciated. Please do not PM me, post your any question or suggestion in public.

Shouldnt be too hard are you going to post results here actually as to what you did and how much it helped?
 
I am actually going to post every success and result findings. I am also going to post lesion I have learned. So this thread will definitely help newbie.
 
I just started a site like this with stats that are similar. I got my hands on a the .org for the exact keyword. It gets a lot of searches and I'm pretty psyched about getting to the top.

I made about 4-5 posts on the blog a few days after getting it setup and a few days later am on page two. I haven't done any link wheels or promotion yet, so I'm thinking I should dominate this niche fairly easily.
 
I have a similar story, I am on 5th position for some word+keyword but for keyword I am on 20th position. It has been 3 weeks but i am not moving from 20th position for exact keyword, it is difficult task but best way to get out of this is to create new blogs and post unique articles on it.
 
@Longover and @Georgy Can you post your competition analysis matrix.
You don't have to reveal your keywords. The screen shot will help to learn about keyword research for newbies here.

Update:
I got first page in Google image search for 3 keywords including main keyword.
 
A micro niche should be quite easy for you to rank well for.
 
Can you give me an example of your link wheel please? also.. did you work to get some backlinks?
 
@adank92 yes I am still working to get back links
yahoo shows 202 incoming links.

Update: I got first page for both main keyword and "main keyword" ie 3rd position in google for "main keyword" and 5th position for main keyword. he search result for main keyword is 19,200,000 and for "main keyword" is 285,000 . I think which is pretty much competitive.
I think I am very much near to meet my target. Now I am getting 70 uniques per day, 89.3% organic traffic, moreover about 80% alone from Google.

I have recently lunched another project with similar concept but completely different niche.I will post update of the project also.
All ideas and resources I have used in this experiment is from BHW.

Thanks BHW.

Hey when you check in google with
allintitle:keyword
How much results you get for your keyword which you are trying to target?

It would be really helpful if you can spend those 5seconds and report back :)
Trying to build up some site the same way but not sure about competition, can u do that plz?
Thanks!
 
All about the niche and link building, any micro niche/keywords with low competition should be easy to rank for, and you can do it within 1 or few weeks .

What you're doing is the basic game with google, but you're doing it right just keep the good work, also make sure to do not add adsense until at least 2 weeks, this will give the website a better value .

The only thing is I don't think you'll get $15 earning from adsense with only 589 UV per day, you need more than that I believe. and you can't guarantee a constant 15% CTR .

now do the same and a build a network of websites, 10 or even more, but make sure you keep promoting and building back links to your old and new websites or they may drop .

Keep posting results and Good luck buddy .
 
I am unable to move from 20th position in SERP in Google, although I am on first position in Bing and Yahoo, Does Google count css and loading time too into account because I have a video on home page.

I think we have to set everything right to earn points from google.

What are points and most critical issues in top down order in Google so that we can start fixing that first.

For eg. I am looking for a matrix like

1. Loading time x points
2. css y points etc.
 
@toxtom, allintitle:keyword gives 253,000 results. which most of gurus says pretty high competition but I am near to the success to beat them easily.

@mgs, 15% CTR can be easily achievable, it all depends of visitors demography and ad layout. I am already getting more than 20% consistent CTR. I am pretty sure that I can make $20 per day if I get 500+ UVs per day. I have added google search bar but haven't added adsense ad units yet. I will not add till next week. For experimental purpose I have added one adsense ad (large rectangle) at the top for 3 hours then removed and get $1.76 from 2 clicks and 8 page views.

Update: I have added 2 more articles on 3 word low competition long tail keywords. It will add up some easy SE traffic.

Those are articles what you wrote/outsourced or just copied from somewhere?
 
Hey I found a keyword it got only 700results with allintitle:
And it got 110k searches per month and should give at least $1/click in adsense.
And when checking competition I got this
o0q7aq.png




So what u say- Did I just found Golden Keyword?
I'm going to register .info domain for it as just keyword-phrase.info
Ordered already 10X 500words articles related to that keyword
And as for backlinks I'm going to build for it 5 per day from Do-follow blog commenting related to my Keyword.

Based on the numbers given can anyone rate in scale from 1to10 what chance I have to get for this Keyword first position in google If I follow my described strategy in 1month?

Thanks!
 
great that you have got the top SERP.But one thing that helped me here in this thread is when you posted the amount of searches you are getting - so it is 70 per day [while adwords tool showed double that amount]?nice.mmm.....so that is not a big disappointment.isn't it?thanks :)
 
@toxtom - 5 blog commenting per day plus article writing and submission is a great thing to achieve good rank, just do not forget

1. Social bookmarking
2. Posting some articles on your own website

I am glad to see that you plan to work regularly, so rather than getting 100 links in one day, go for 5 each day, thats better.

Good Strategy.
 
So cool...I am a noooob in keywords research, at least I know how to do that from this post, this thread is so helpfull, Thanks...Mamboo...
