Keep building keyword anchored dofollow backlinks and adding original content. You will get to #1 eventually as long as you are doing this more than the sites that are above you.

Just at first glance that doesn't appear to be a very competitive niche so I am guessing it's not going to take a lot to get #1.

If I was Google then an easy way for me to find people trying to manipulate the system would be to fingerprint those who only have high pr do follow backlinks including blogs.

Don't forget the low pr, no & do follow backlinks, web 2.0 and articles or even directorys.

Be as "natural" as possible.

Change your page URLs to:

/gas-detector-TIF8800 (example)

Then change your copy adding "Gas Detector" in front of your model numbers.

Build slowly your backlinks. Do not spam anywhere (leaving a link and disappearing on the same day). Submit some articles on Goarticles and Ezine.

Always leave a link to your internal page.

Instead of leaving this link: TIF8800 Combustible Gas Detector, your URL must look like this: TIF 8800

okay, I actually have that link on my page as you can see in the way WF read it, and its on the home page as well as the navigation buttons.

So I should use that url to link to for backlinks? or maybe you mean put "tif 8800" as name on blog comments?

Yikes! Using the "link:" search will only return a small fraction of the competitors' backlinks (in my experience maybe 1-2% of them).

Pulling from yahoo site explorer is a much better option, and one can still do this using a free add-on to scrapebox, or just going to yahoo site explorer directly.

If u use scrapebox to do it use the addon and check yahoo, google and aol as the search engines and then remove duplicate urls you will have a pretty complete list. And you will have an oeganized list in minutes. Its the easiest way in my experience.

Listen Coby, I have taken a look at your site and I have good news for you.

You are practically guaranteed a #1 if you simply keep patience and keep building any kind of reasonable backlinks over the next 1 month.

Don't touch the nature of the content. It is perfect. The only thing is, count the number of words. Touch the content itself keeing the nature intact and rephrase to make it 500 words - you appear to have 361 word right now. Even 450+ words would do. Do make sure that you use the phrase "tif 8800" (without quotes) at least 10 times in the article, or maybe 7-8 times but in that case use close matches of these words (read up LSI if needed - latent semantic indexing) in sense.

Build backlinks. Do social bookmarking. Submit articles to the top-20 directories - submit 10 articles over the next month if you can. Submit 4-5 videos using Tubemogul or some service that you prefer. Do RSS. Write 2-3 press releases over the next month and submit each release to a bunch of PR sites. Create a set of web 2.0 properties (15-20 odd), and possibly link wheels or multi-tier link structures, over the next month.

I would be surprised if you do not come to #1 in the next 30-45 days. You may actually end up needing lesser efforts.

Could I help you?

Um, no it will not.

Asking Google how many links a site is like asking Joan Rivers how many plastic surgeries she has. In either case, you'll get a vast underestimation.

At a minimum, the OP should use Yahoo Site Explorer or software that pulls from Yahoo Site Explorer.

P.S. the proper search in Google is without the "s" anyways, it is: link:site.com, and not links:site.com

Doing "links:" simply searches the page for the word links anywhere on the page ;-)

To show you how faulty this is, try this search: links:backlinksforum.com (my forum). I get more than 2 million results that way

I can assure you that even though we try, we don't have 2 million backlinks.

Forgive the typo

Its not a be-all end-all, but it does work. I noticed your site is in the blogroll of a site called newz (with a bunch of z's) which I found using the Link: function.

I will try to be more accurate next time.

What are some ways to update content? This site is a product site and has pretty much all the content I can produce for this product. This is not a very competitive niche and honestly 'combustible gas detectors' are kinda boring, lol.

Should I just focust on backlinking and maybe an article or two?

Are there ways to 'update' in the eyes of google w/o changing much?

Thanks for the help, keep it coming.

The best way to update your content is to create a BLOG for your site that is, if you main site is not one.

Every blog post you make will be creating additional page for your site and the search engine loves this.

If you are using hostgator to host your site, log into your cpanel and click fantastico at the software section and proceed from there.

Blog is usually the way to go, but with a product like this I can't see making 10 or more posts about it. Maybe rotating those posts will help but not sure.

Why not use Google wonderwheel and see what Google thinks is related to your sites niche. That might broaden the topics you can cover.

In the main though, its down to steadily growing your anchor text backlinks.

One other thing, I am assuming its the phrase "tif combustible gas detector" or similar you want to rank for (you're not on pae one for me either). Puttin the exact phrase in your H1 will help a little, rather than just "8800".

You sure your not getting personalized search results?

Try the same search in Chrome Incognito, see what you get.

For his noted search: tif 8800 he is #6 for me, and that is confirmed by Link Assistant's Rank Tracker.

Of course, the high ranking is likely due to the fact that the site is getting some sort of "newness" boost.

Its pretty simple, just keep on building those backlinks. One thing to keep in mind though. If your site is already at #7 for the keyword, but has no backlinks at that time, i'm assuming it is a new site.

Sometimes, a new site will rank exceptionally high for its targeted keyword right out of the gate based upon a "freshness" factor. For whatever reason, Google often puts a new site up near the top for a short while based upon the mere fact that it is new and targeting that keyword. But, often Google doesn't actually believe that site deserves to be at that spot long-term. So, with backlinking and over time, I would expect the odds of your site dropping back several pages at least, is quite high. Just don't freak when that happens and continue to build backlinks to your site.

Thanks

1)Include about us, disclaimer pages
2) Add your keyword in the "useful links" anchor...ex: "useful tif880 information" . On this page, change the title to include some related generic keyword.

3)Be careful..very very careful where you get your links from. Do not mass outsource to one of those services which build you 500 or 5000 links in one go. I did this to one of my niche sites which was ranked 3-4 for my keyword and was generating a sale every day. I got a bit greedy and wanted that #1 spot, and mass outsourced backlinks. my site was absolutely massacred and was lost in the boondocks. After spending 5-6 months in total wilderness, its slowly started climbing the rankings after consistent content additions and backlinks.

Hi Coby,

I haven't seen anybody mention Alexa.

Type in your #1 spot competitors url into search box and dig deeper and if the site has been around for a while it will show exact sites where it got it's links from.

Just go get them from same place and from other widespread, high PR sources.

All the best,
Ewen

I think only one way to beat your competitors follow your competitors analysis them and then you do extra from your top major competitors. If they doing reciprocal link building you also do more from them and if they doing other things you also do those things there is no specific strategy for any keyword because you are on already 1st page of Google. You need to just follow your competitors.
