HI Guys,

Got a simple question. I have this keyword targeted by the name of the website vs a site that has thousands of backlinks.

The Keyword --- "My personal War room"

My Target "My Personal War room"
The Competition "How to get My Personal War room"

1.Can I beat the competition easily for ordinary site? They are targeting long tail keyword right? i am not.

2.What if the competition is ehow.com?

Please advise Thanks and Merry Christmas!

    The Plan is to get a website name with tough competition. I am targeting about 5 keywords at the moment. Only the one that is competeting with ehow has my web domain name on it.

    1 more question. If that is ehow and ehow targets "How to get My Personal War room"

    Will I have a change of grabing the spot on "My personal War room"? with daily Article backlinking and bookmarking? What do you think?

      2.What if the competition is ehow.com?
      I would write an article and post it not only on ehow.com, but Squidoo and Hubpages.


      I sometimes go w/ the short tail - but it depends on the Google External KW tool and what it says about my competition. Also - how many searches it gets locally and world wide each month.

      Ok thanks a lot got your point. Thanks a lot for the replies and merry christmas.

      One more thing.... Can you explain to me the keywords?

      I got a tip from my mentor that if your competitor targets "Short tail1" You can target "Very Short Tail1" keywords.

      Why not the other way around? your competitor target s "Very short tail1" and you target "Short tail1"

      Can you explain this to me and give me some clarifications? thanks a lot!
