My EMD does not rank in top 1000

[kaluuu]

Hi, i bought and EMD about 3-4 weeks ago...after about 1 week or so i released to the search engines in order to be indexed. Well it got indexed, but it past 2 weeks and it still doesn't rank in top 1000 of google. I made some link (bookmarks,and social network).
Usually all the EMD's that i bought ranked on their own ......

Is the domain penalized, in sandbox or something else? Can someone please suggest me something that i can do in order to make it appear in google rankings?

I thought I was in a similar situation for a hard to rank keyword and then after a month "boom", page one position #9. I was doing considerably more backlinking than you though such as high PR blogrolls, lots of article marketing, blog comments etc.

The domain I'm speaking about is a .info and it ranked no problem. As for yours I'd get the ball rolling with some quality links right away.

If only it were that easy

How competitive is the keyword?
What's the on page SEO and internal linking like?
Do you have any high quality back links or just low quality links from fiverr?

It's only been index for 1 week, to early to be worrying about it really.

It is indexed in google for about 1 - and half - 2 weeks.....

Is a competitive niche, but with the links i provided should at least rank in top 1000....from my experience with my websites.

And the domain extension is .org

Wow learn something called SEO, that should help you out. EMD will rank!

[JSProjects]

I'm personally starting to notice that EMD's are losing their effectiveness. Not entirely, but IMO gone are the days of registering an EMD, putting up some content, and hitting page one.

@Megyn write junk somewhere else.

uMM try adding a few backlinks

EMDs are not magic sent from God
if its very low competition they will rank with some content and a few backlinkso
with higher competiton they might not even rank that well with way more backlinks and content but u should be at least top 15 or 20 , usually

Having EMD does not guarantee you fast rankings, it will definitely help you along the way, though got to use good SEO strategy.

[JammerJones]

Didn't read thru the rest of the replies so I apologize if the questions been asked, but how big is the keyword? Are your links cached? What kind of content do you have on the site? EMDs are powerful but it's all relative, you can't just throw it up and expect results although not even top 1000 is strange - I'll give you that.

[Barefoot Warrior]

I wouldn't worry, the site is new and Google will take as long as it pleases to decide where to rank you in the SERPs. Just focus on content, backlinks, bookmarking etc. I had similar concerns a few months back, a hyphenated EMD, no sign in the top 1000 for about 3 weeks then suddenly in the top 100 and shortly after on 3rd page for a highly competitive keyword. With the latest PR update it was a PR4, all within 2 months ... things can happen

My Emd has included in its name the word TREATMENT. Maybe because of this it doesnt rank.

Im starting to get paranoic. )

Good to hear. Now the hard part is keeping it there.

[Mack Attack 77]

I just ranked an EMD for a 10,000 Exact Match Keyword in three days. About 1000-1500 words of content and the usual social bookmarks, web2.0's etc.

Nothing major.

[mauliea]

can anyone tell me whats EMD? sounds good

[webdevpro]

3-4 weeks old domain are just new and may require couple of more weeks (months) before they starts appearing high in SERPs. So wait for more time and in the mean time add contents and build backing on regular basis.

[SamDermot]

Well, you have to build link continuously and it would rank one day, algorithm of Google is hard to understand so nothing can be said..

I was ranking on 4th position in Google.com, I started building link so that I would be on 1st position but suddenly not found even in 100 but when I find in Google UK, it has 5th position....

Now I changed the content and now nowhere is found, it is hard to understand.

Good, at least your now seeing SERP results, just don't get hooked on the idea that an EMD is the end of your SEO.

My advice is at the very least rank a 2nd internal page for the same exact keyword. Assumes that keyword returns worthwhile traffic.

By ranking multiple pages per keyword you'll build up some authority for that single keyword, which will make it harder for competition to bump you down the SERPs in the future.

Your job is to make the competitions SEO as difficult as possible! A lot of times competition will walk away from the keyword If it looks like it's going to be too much work.

What is the best way to do this? Cheers.

[marketwarrior06]

Dude actually you don't have to worry. Its natural. you just have to wait for a month or a bit more.
Like others you will also get the rank. Do some more link building.

[xrcv]

Hahah, the treatment thing always worried me when I started too...makes sense doesn't it New sites do seem to rank slower and disappear a lot lately - google's way of making the rankings seem 'harder'.

BTW what is it about people replying with 'just add more quality content and build backlinks' to every possible thread? I could probably start a thread about car tires in the off topic section and I'd have someone telling me to just keep building links...is post count that important?

First, each additional page that you want to rank for the same keywords as the first page needs to be 100% unique:

• Page Title
• URL
• Content

If those 3 things are not unique your just wasting time, because a duplicate page is going to end up buried in supplemental SERPs & will never be found by traffic.

After you have the unique page-title, URL, & content, then build a few quality external links by hand, pointing at the new page with relevant anchor-text. Point your best of the best external links at the money page. Still the other related internal pages external links need to be quality links, you just don't want to overpower the money page.

On the 2nd new page point at least one internal link at the first internal page already ranked in the SERPs.

You have to keep an eye on how Google handles the top ranked page out of the pages from your site for the single keyword. Example, you want your money page at the top of the SERPs & not the 2nd or 3rd internal page ranked #1. If you notice the top ranked page out of your group of ranked pages (per keyword) isn't the money page, most likely you need to change some internal links to get the pages re-positioned in the SERPs, or simply make them all money pages & not worry about it.

Once the first page is ranked, internal linking becomes a lot more powerful when linking related pages, it can help lighten the load on external links.

[lutherlars]

Hey thanks for the clarification. Quick question.
You say: On the 2nd new page point at least one internal link at the first internal page already ranked in the SERPs.
Would you not link to the new page, from the page already ranked in order to pull up the rank of the new page? What is the reason for linking out to the ranked page from the new page that is not yet ranked? THX.
