Default I'm number #1 on Google ...

... for the term 'personal development' - wow!

I have been on page #1 before but never actually the 1st result. Steve Pavlina's site has occupied that slot for years, but today I displaced his site.

I feel rather pleased with myself!

There are not a lot of feelings like the sense of achievement obtained from achieving such things!

I still see Steve Pavlina's site as #1. If you're logged into Google it shows you results that are customized to you, so that may be why you see your site as #1?

Excellent! I've managed to get on page 1 for my key words but that climb up to the final spot at the top is really hard to do. Sometimes I slip back to page 2, so you may not stay there. Keep at it.

It's likely Will's #1 in the UK Google. Nevertheless, #1's
still huge. And being page 1 for personal development
is quite a statement in itself.

I think we are witnessing the Google Dance in action - if you didn't see me in position #1, try again & see if I'm there now. I think it takes time for the change to ripple through Google's sever farm.

Still feeling pretty Cool

For this term - no - it's the White Dove Books - Personal Development, Self Growth & Motivation site - it's still right there at #1 for me on both engines.

Congrats. You're showing up as #2 for me though. Guess it's working it's way up there for the rest of Google's servers.

I see the same thing as KJ. I even used SEO Tools and checked it and it shows you at position 70 for the term "personal development" w/o quotes, but when i checked myself at google it showed you at #71.

Good luck though and maybe it hasn't gotten around to all of the google servers yet, but a jump from the #70's to #1 is a jump quite unlike I have ever seen.

Um, when I do a search in google for - personal development - you are at number 24, but if I do a search for - personal development books - you are number 2. Is this the keyword phrase that you are actually ranking for?

Yes - it's indeed odd - and I see I am now back at my usual positions on the 2 engines in question. I'm on page #1 of the .co.uk engine in position #8; and page #3 of the .com engine in position #24

Don;t know what's going on over there, but it was nice while it lasted. It actually gave me the shock of my life when I saw it there in position #1 of the .com site.

Still, perhaps it's some kind of indication that Google is thinking about upping my ranking - I'd like to think so.

Not so cool now

But still hopeful

I am seeing you on page 3, but nevertheless it is a huge keyword and I see you have a PR5 site with plenty of backlinks which is a great effort.

To find what you really rank, you need to view it through a proxy. Go to www.pagewash.com and search through google under the proxy. This should show your real rank.

It looks like you're nowhere on the first page using the proxy. =(

Even showing on page #1 is an achievement. I checked your website, it is showing at #3. I guess you have another site that is showing on #34.

Using this position checker tool, you are:

#3 in Google (US)
#8 in Google (Canada)
#3 in Google (UK)

Job well done. Congratulations!

you also have to think that many people that are seeing this thread will google it, and click on your page, and hit back. Which is a negative vote for you. Thats assuming your average user stays longer.

Even worse if they check out the competition after that.

Tough keyword their champ ...

Ive got ya in at #70. Be sure your using google while NOT logged into webmaster tools or a gmail account ... that will skew your search results big time.

I make the top 5 slots anytime I search for google whilst unwittingly logged into my google accounts.

Keep rockin !

Whoooa! #1 domain has 131,000 of indexed pages of content and 201,000 backlinks in Yahoo Site Explorer.

Congratulations!

I have a bunch of pages #1 at Google for Collectible Dolls Shop also and they're not screen shots.

And, I have never looked for or build any backlinks for the site. It's a bit over rated to say that you have to have a bunch of backlinks for a site to do well.

Example:

Hannah Montana collectibles - Google Search=

collectible dolls shop - Google Search

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&r...h&aq=f&oq=&aqi=

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q...s&aq=f&oq=&aqi=

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q...q=f&oq=&aqi=g1

and thousands more.

Normally if I'm #2 instead of #1 the merchant that I'm an affiliate with is the only one above me.

Hi Burger Boy,


I sorry to burst you bubble, but those are obscure keywords that have little or no competition. "Hannah Montana collectibles" for instance has an average global search volume of about 1 search per day and there seems to be only one other website that has a backlink with that keyword in the anchor text.

It's not hard to rank #1 for keywords nobody much cares about. Now if you could do that with important keywords with commercial value, that would be impressive.

No, no, no. Wiki has the first place in Google.com and Steve Pavlina has the second place. Pretty much everyone will go to Steve Pavlina as well, he's a well known dude.

Well done on page one anyway, nice to see a fellow UK'er doing the business.

That's strange. I make thousands of dollars a year off of that site so I guess people that are into collectibles are using those product key words and many others on my collectibles site.

In the site's Awstats stats it shown that Google is refering hundreds of searchs a day to the different products on the site that you say nobody is searching for.

Either you're wrong or Awstats is wrong - I'm going with you're wrong because I'm getting the sales to show Awstats is right.

Excellent work Will.

I'm still working my way up for lead generation, and am currently 4th/7th respectively in .co.uk/.com. But I'm still very prone to the Google dance, and tend to lose 6-12 places within seconds of telling somebody I'm now on page one. So I better not check again today!

But your post gives the rest of us lesser mortals cause to hope, and the motivation to keep on keeping on.

Hi BurgerBoy,

I never questioned whether you were making sales or getting lot's of traffic, only that you were not getting much traffic from that specific keyword search term.

How many referrals are you receiving from Google for that specific search query? If you look deeply enough into your data you will see that I'm correct. Don't trust me, look closely at your own data for that revelation. You are likely to find that your traffic is coming from other search terms and while that is good, it doesn't make my original assertion wrong.

By having a clear understanding of exactly (not generally) where our traffic comes from we can learn and improve our techniques. I feel it's helpful for everyone on this board to get the most accurate information possible so we can all benefit. If you can show us actual data the contadicts my assertions that would be a revelation I would welcome.

I always try to remember to log out of Google before I search for anything. I don't really like the idea of G watching every thing I search for... it kind of gives me the creepy crawlies.
