... 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! Will

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.

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

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. |

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 ![]() Will | |

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.

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. You, my friend .... have some titanium cajones chasing that bad boy down. |

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. |

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. |

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. | |

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. | |
