Dealing with a Competior in Google SERPs
- SEO |
I have a site that has always enjoyed strong rankings for more than 5 years. I noticed today, doing a
search for one of my main keywords (which also appears in my brand) shows a smaller competitor
whose brand name and domain name happens to be an exact match on the particular search phrase. It goes something like this:
Keyword phrase: word1 word2
My brand: Name word2 Name word1
Competitor brand name: word1 word2
So, whilst my brand contains the keywords they are not exact match.
Now, I must say that when I do the search the competitor comes up 5th. However, when my CEO does it the competitor comes 1st. Aside from localisation and personalistation which I understand, what's the best way to combat this?
This competior has 1/100th of pges indexed compared to my site, 34 for total links from 1 referrer (site-wide navigation).
I thought it my be new site honeymoon period but I need to come up with a strategy to keep the competitor at bay and below my listing.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!
