Hi Guys,

I don't get this one bit, a domain which has been purchased and has absolutely NO CONTENT is ranking above sites which are content right!

link: botox glasgow - Google Search=

the site is www.botoxglasgow.com

how can that be lol

cheers guys

  • This is a case of "exact phrase domains"...

    A perfect example actually! You're searching for "botox glasgow" - and the name of the website is h t t p : / / b o t o x g l a s g o w . c o m . Simple as that! People are making A LOT of money on "exact phrase domains" - A LOT!

    I'm making a fortune on this as well - with content and backlinks you have a MUCH better chance to rank for a exact domain!

    • Maybe I'm missing something.

      People are not making a fortune on blank, undeveloped domains
      with zip on it. But people believe it and make domain sellers
      rich.

      But here's the truth. The site does have content on it, and
      appears to be (or was) in the process of being developed.
      The domain obviously has a little history.

      Sometimes I wonder how people have so much time on their
      hands to do useless searches on useless websites.

      These things are meaningless. Pointless.

  • Hi Wi,

    So that's an example of how much power google gives to exact phrase keyword domains eh? i can't believe the sites below have more links/content including my friends but this one is higher up the serps lol should i just build even more backlinks? will it eventually be overtaken do you think?

    cheers mate

    • Yep, that's a PERFECT example of the exact keyword domains

      Well exact keyword domains are not unbeatable! Backlinks is key in this situation. Yes I do believe that if you keep building backlinks you will rank higher AND stronger than that domain!

      And I do believe that this domain will be downgraded in the near future because of the low amount of content
  • Thanks Wi back to building links

    cheers

  • The domain url is one of the factors why you are still ranking high on search engines, having a keyword on your domain name can easily rank well in search engines.

    • True - and welcome to this forum.
  • I had purchased a brand new domain name once and it was in the top 4 on the very first page of google after it propagated over. I was a bit surprised but was like sweet.

    I learned that the keywords in the domain name really do make a big difference.
  • One more thing to notice is the age of the domain - 3 years. It used to have a bunch of content. That and the domain having the exact keywords of the search is the reason for the result.

    • Domain age doesn't matter. Link age is what matters.
