Can A Squeeze Rank Very High For Competitive Terms?

hey warrior,

What's Up?

Hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend!

Well I just want to ask all the SEO experts if you think it is wise to build links to a squeeze for it to rank high in the search engines?

Or is it possible to get good rankings for a squeeze page?

thanks

    Sure it's possible. Any page COULD rank for any term.

    Whether you'd want to is another question, and I would say no.

    1. It'll be tough to get the page to rank highly for more than one high competition term, and when you're focusing on getting it to rank for just one term is a futile approach.

    Instead it's easier to just make a blog or another site of "traffic pages" that will get search rankings and pull your traffic for you, then funnel it to your squeeze page if you wish.

    This way you can publish lots of pages, to try and target lots of terms... you're not going to be upset if one page doesn't get ranked for one term, because you've got lots of pages and lots of possibilities for traffic AND you'll find it EASIER to get these pages ranked for your chosen terms because they can target each term individually without having to do any selling as well (like a squeeze page would).

    I hope that helps.

      I agree with this. Focusing on natural ranking for a squeeze page takes to long if you are looking to have long term results.

    Anything can rank high. I have a domain that is used solely to store some crap, such as old pictures, etc. A couple of months ago I tried to make an affiliate review page for three products to use on AdWords. I made a test affiliate review page and uploaded it on that domain to see what it looks like. Since than I forgot I had it. A few days ago I found that page by accident on the second page of Google for relevant keywords. And I had been wondering where the hell those sales came from? I didn't account for those links since it was a test.

      Were the keywords competitive?

      If yes how many results for the keywords in quotes "" ...?

    Any page can rank well with enough valuable backlinks. I've had several 1-page sites rank well for competitive keywords, once they had quite a few backlinks from authority sites.

    Yes, a squeeze page can rank well for competitive terms. I've got one in a rather competitive niche that's on the first page for 5 competitive phrases.

    It brings in search traffic from Google, Yahoo, MSN and Live.

    One thing that I believe helped improve its pagerank and quality, was

    adding a linkout at the footer of the page to a legal terms agreement for the website.

    Hope this helps,

      Very Interesting. I have a link in the footer of my squeeze page to the sitemap.
