Hallo all,

I'm a newbie here and I hardly know much about SEO on page and off page. However I've tried to do all the SEO on page (as far as I know) on my site. My question is:

How do I increase just one of my posts/pages in Google's SERP for that particular keyword that I target? Please kindly let me know in great detail of what I should do here. I'd greatly appreciate for all the valuable answers provided. thank you so much

    The best way of doing this is by using off page optimisation and the main technique here is to build external links to your web page.

    The basis of this is:

    To find an external website where you can add a link to your web page and hopefully include an anchor text.

    Anchor text: This is the part of text that is highlighted in an active link. Take my signature (bottom of this post) for example. The "SEO Tips part is highlighted, this is my anchor text and the keyword I am trying to rank for.

    After you have done this Google will recognise this link and include it in your overall link count. This is the very basic design of link building however it can become much more complex.

    So basically:

    Find other websites where your able to link to your web page and add a link with your keyword in the anchor text. For a new website I recommend 10-20 links per day at a maximum. For a older website 50-100 each day at the maximum.

    Hope this helps.

      Spot on. Aside from this - on page things that must be considered are as follows:

      1) Backlinks (already mentioned)
      2) Meta Content: Your Meta-Title and Meta-Description MUST contain your key word string. This is vitally important.
      3) Keyword Density used on your webpage
      4) URL - If you have a URL with the keywords in it, this will work in your advantage
      5) Time - the longer your website exists, the more "respect" Google will give it

      good luck,

        Thank you for all your valuable answers. I've done almost all the things said above, including social bookmarking, except for article submission. I've also done blog commenting with dofollow links (with similar topic and higher PR, if possible), too.

        I've heard that the tactic below also works. What do you say?
        1. First you make a post around your primary targeted keyword (eg:apple)
        2. Then you make 3 posts around the secondary keywords linking to post#1 (eg: red apple (linking to 'apple'), green apple (linking to 'apple'), yellow apple (linking to 'apple')
        3. and so on...

        Does it really help?

          In all my years of doing SEO I have actually never come across this technique, perhaps I don't read enough but that sounds interesting. I would say its worth a shot however it doesn't seem too much different from just internal linking relevant pages together so I wouldn't get your hopes too high.

          Instead I would try it but also improve your link building techniques. At the end of the day SEO is a long term process, an on going process which never ceases to end, therefore every effort that you make will have an affect even if it goes unoticeable just keep trying. There are no secret techniques to automatically get you at the top and allow you to remain there for a long time, instead its these little strategies and techniques that help to build your strength over time.

          Good luck.

          Yes there is a strategy similar to this but not exactly this that would help, but first do you know your keyword's difficulty score? Have you done enough keyword research to make sure you are on the right track? ok if you have done that then first make sure your on page optimization is fine and if your on-page optimization is good too you can start building links, i guess you know that you have to use your targeted keyword as anchor text to improve your ranking in serps. This point on what counts is where your website is getting backlinks from, do follow comments help a little but not much article submission helps too specially if you can place a link in the body of a well optimized article. Backlinks from high PR sites help a lot so try to get as many of them as you can and it will be a lot lot better if the page that is linking to your site has a similar targeted keyword as yours, another way to get high quality links is to offer free posts to high ranking blogs in your niche in exchange for a link at the bottom of the post. I hope this helps i gotta go now so I'll try to post about that method you were talking later

          Yes, this is known to work. Normally the first level (direct links) would be blog postings or other content such as Vox, LiveJournal etc. The links to the links would be social bookmarks. Of course you can do some direct bookmarking as well.

          As far as primary and secondary keywords are concerned, I am not sure. I think there needs to be some natural randomness to the anchor text in your links. Besides, depending on where you link from (bookmarking sites, for example) it will be the title of the post that becomes the anchor text. It would be difficult to have just your keyword as the title, but the title should be keyword rich.

    As for the backlinks, try to get as many relevant backlinks as you can. Which means getting related niche backlinks.

    Example; Webmaster sites would get better ranking backlinks on webmaster forums and such, instead of gaming forum.

    i will choose to take 1 PRO link from a site in relation to my topic w/ the keyword phrase I want to have a rank rather than from PR5 pages that are not relevant to my topic w/ "click here" as the link text.
