The First Page of Google: What Does It Take To Get There?
By admin | May 12, 2009
The first page of Google? Who wouldn’t want their website on that spot, especially for the keyword their customers are looking for.
And it’s not Mission Impossible either, but depending on how competitive your keyword is, it might take some doing — and especially some know-how.
What know-how? How to optimize the page without overdoing it. How to create a website Google will love. How to get past all the other people clamoring for that spot.
Is it a sure thing? No one can every totally guarantee it, but depending on your situation, your chances can be very good, provided you have done your homework on making your website as optimized as possibe, provide excellent information, maybe even have a video on it, and so on.
And then…
You also need “backlinks.” What are these? Those are websites with related content linking to your site. The higher the page rank of those sites, the better.
One easy way to get high quality backlinks is to publish articles for Ezinearticles.com and other, similar article directories.
Another way is social bookmarking, and yet another is posting of forums and having your website’s link in the signature.
And we haven’t even gotten to videos yet… 
Is it work? Sure. But it’s work well spent. Or money well spent, if you choose to pay someone else to do it.
Coming up soon: A workshop on how to do all that.
Here in Richmond, but probably also as a webinar..
