It's a very big surprise for me to see my blog is listed at third position for the following keywords:
So what's the secret behind all this? The answer will be given at the end of this post, for now, allow me to keep on bragging.
Of course those keywords mean nothing for money and keyword ranking, because who would ever search for binh or binh nguyen? But that was my experiment and I'm extremely happy with this result.
What sort of experiment? You may ask. For a while, my blog has been on first position for only the following keywords:
That's why I decided to try out something new. Now I also rank 1 for the following keywords:
SEO is so difficult if you don't know. If you do know how, it became much easier. But it costed me 3 months to learn the lesson, the hard way. And yet, I haven't build any targeted keyword to my blog.
Before all this there was one time my blog completly disappeared from the first few pages of Google search results. The reason was duplicated contain. My whole homepage was duplicated to my individual post, including the title and everything else. I got that heavy penalty spanning for weeks even after I fixed the plugin bug. Perhaps I will talk about this in another post.
The secret is what I did to the the anchor text I put on a low PR website (which is also a secret). I randomize the anchor text for the link to my blog a few weeks ago with all the above keywords.
It's just the beginning. I did not actively build links, till now. I am going to try to build more quality links and hope to see the increase in traffic from Google. Let's see how.
