Quick SEO question from a clueless guy...

Hi everyone,

I am new at this SEO stuff, and I have a simple question.

If the top ten sites for a certain keyword all make one or a few basic SEO errors (no alt tags, no h1, no KW in titles, etc.) and I cover all those bases with my site AND I get more backlinks than they all have, and my backlinks are of better quality than theirs (meaning PR4 and up), is it certain that I will rank in the top 10?

The site has been around for a while, so it ain't new.

Thanks in advance.

Great question. You've listed some great variables, but there are a bunch of other 'x' factor variables as well. Age of domain (yours and theirs), as well as the type of links they have (relevant industry wide, or off-base links). The short answer is that you'd probably see a top 10 placement, the long answer is you need to try and see
