Now I know we are all looking for the Holy Grail when it comes to SEO.

And I don't say I have found it, but this October I had for the first time + 100K visitors from Google. Without paying for it. Pure organic and good visitors.

Some facts:
  • Website age: 2.5 years
  • Subject: Automotive (Social marketplace)
  • Backlinks: No idea, don’t really care about them
  • FB Likes: +5.000 (Real likes)
  • Twitter followers: 225
  • Google+: Have No Idea
  • Index pages: + 8.000.000
  • Total Pages +/- 150.000.000
  • Avarage bounce Google visitor: 47%
  • Average stay Google visitor: 2m04
  • Average page visits: 10,50

Why do we score so well in Google?
  • Content, content and again content.
  • After that, make sure Google Index all you have in the correct way.
  • Sitemaps visual and XML.
  • Every page can be reached within 4 steps for Google.
  • Pages that are not important, we say NO INDEX.

Extras
  • Make sure you are being liked by other pages, backlinks will follow without bothering about it.
  • Free backlink page to other automotive pages.
  • Some interesting content I repost on FB, Twitter & Google+, but not in the same words.

Want to know more: Just take a look

Or ask me for more information

    Well then I would not point to this example as a success. 150 million pages is only bringing in about 3500 visitors a day? That's not good.

    I know sites getting a lot more traffic than that with less than 50 pages.

      Only allowing 8 million out of 150 million pages to be indexed so I guess that's a lot of auto generated fluff pages?

      Why?

        It's not the total traffic, it is the proven Free Google traffic.
        We grow around 20% a month in traffic.
        And beside the Google traffic, we have a lot more traffic, but we can't always see where it comes from.

        SEO we talk about, not ROI.
        But if you want to know...Forbes here we come!!

        Why?
        Now look at FaceBook, they generate a total of 1 billion new pages a day, but not all are indexed.
        Also many pages we not want to be indexed. We tell Google what pages are good and bad to index.
        A lot of our pages come from data feeds from shops, it means we have to watchout for double content.

          I figured you was scraping other sites content.

    Okay, so SEO is solved.

    Just create a site with 8 million indexed pages and you too can get 3,500 visitors a day.

      I get the feeling this is headed towards an anti-SEO product (social build it & they'll come).

        No, we created a social marketplace, where automotive fans and companies can meet each other. Not only to meet or sell, but make a mix between selling and socializing.
        And now we are seeing that Google is picking it up, faster and faster.

        Well, that is not what I want to say.

        What I say is, if you are able to create content, a lot and you focus on creating content only, than the visitors will come, and keep coming.
        And if your content is interesting, you will get your backlinks, without you having to search for them.

        Yes I have a lot of pages, but also a website with just 1.000 pages, or like you said before 50 pages (But with interesting content) can be found good by Google.
        Content is KING!

        I think it is the mix between Social build and they will come, and being found on Google.

      Thank You.

      1. Created a social network, where people can write, post and share.
      2. We sell our space to online web stores, that can upload their complete web store to our website.

      We split pages with Photos again in different pages, so if somebody add a photo album with 100 photos it means a 100 pages.

      This together generates a lot of pages.

      See above for the creating of pages.

      I started some months ago with actively adding stuff to social networks.
      Now I have a budget of 100 euro a month for FB and make sure that I never pay more as 0,01$ for an action.
      Twitter I use only because Google likes twitter to index our content.
      Same for Google+

    It`s possible, I also have websites maybe with not so many pages but they are growing, the strange thing is its 100% duplicate content it`s RSS but with 5-10 words per article plus photo, it`s indexing very fast and what is the best it ranks for a lot of LT phrases and bringing me a lot of visitors that way it seems like Google don`t care about duplicate content in case of so short "articles" It`s an kind of galleries with very short descriptions, all pulled from RSS.

    may I know where is your traffic from? Seen many Indian SEO experts with sites like this and to tell the truth, some traffic just can't be converted, for example, Indian traffic. So is your goal with more visits or money? curated things up to 3M pages only allow you to pay more in hosting if it doesn't convert.

    I prefer people land on my site and decide if they want it or not........not surfing and browsing all the stuff then go, I don't educate people or give them catalogs. that is what marketing is for, to brand your service, or to sell. BTW, you rank pages, not sites, so even if you have 8M pages, do all the page rank well? do you have any one on 1st page?

    I like the idea of letting other stores create a store on your website.

    May try that with my British TV abroad website.

    I cant find your forum. What is the URL please?

      My Goal now, is to make a great website, with visitors that stay a long time and enjoy the time online. Find what they look for and tell other people about the website.

      As part of my pay is CPM, I like them to stay long and see a lot of pages,

      With over 500 Keywords we are on the first POSITION on the first PAGE on Google and with over 14.000 different keywords the website was found in October.

      The website is focused on automotive alone, if that is your niche, you can PM me.
