Stay Focused, Organic Search Rankings Take Time
If anything is more time consuming and complicated its building website rankings strategically through search engines. If any one would know I would know this and any other great SEO (Search Engine Optimization) expert someone that is very well experience can tell you getting traffic to your website takes time speaking your getting it through organic search.
When your building your website stay focused and don’t give up specially on a new domain. On new domains they take a lot of time to build up thats for damn sure excuse my language, but they honestly do. I’ve seen new domains go from no where to number 1 for very competitive keywords, but it took some time and a lot of dedication and when I mean dedication I mean a lot of work, no joke.
That can be another issue out in the web 2.0 space a lot of people think there going to jump on and make a million bucks in a month. I had a prospect call me the other day and I think he would make a great client, but he told me he wanted 25 leads per week, and then said if I could get that many leads per week everything would be changing around here and I’ve had many other people call and ask the same thing and they have a brand spanking new domain.
Which granted someone can get that many extra leads per weak maybe through PPC (Pay Per Click) or paying for traffic somewhere, but if someone is wanting it from organic search it will take time. Sometimes it can take a good year or two to actually get good traffic just to be on the safe side I generally tell someone a good two years unless there willing to pay out some major bucks and we can put our brains into it and work like we never have before, but then again chances are it will take time for them leads to come in heavily.
So if your someone building links and wondering why your not getting no results well relax it takes time. When I say time I mean it takes a lot of your time and dedication you need to give it everything you got and thats no joke, but the outcome is astonishing.
Now if you have a old domain thats dated back to 1998 then your in super good hands a domain age like this can be very easy to rank on certain terms and requires 10 times less work. Don’t take me wrong it still will take some work to get the traffic coming in, but less work.
I had one client that was ranking on very competitive brand name keywords, but his domain was dated back to 1996 and the guy hardly had no links what so ever, but when we would put a link up against his website it would rank for that given keyword like you wouldn’t believe I mean with 10 links it would rank for pratically any long tail and check this out the guy was the largest reseller for Hallmark Ornaments if that gives you any idea on what type of business he was conducing through organic search engines.
Now we’ve also went up against sites that are about 5 years old and they do pretty good, but most generally sites around that 1-2 year age frame just don’t rank that well any more; in other words, like they use to in the old days. In the old days you could throw a site up and build links into it and rank it because the search engines measured things a little differently.
Which granted don’t take me wrong you can get some good traffic with then 1 year or so, but you better plan on working your tail off and getting a bunch of links because like I stated earlier a new domain requires 10 times more work then a old domain I seen it every day I do this for a living.
The whole reason I decided to write this post up is to give you some insight on whats going on and just to remind any one that is trying to make a living through the web or start a online company just give it time and things will start to happen it just takes a lot of work and dedication to build a profitable websites through search engines or blogs. Also be sure to keep in mind older domains rank better then newer domains and if your domain is younger then 2 years then you better work your tail off to get it going because new domains like that are very hard to rank.
