My Blog offers some Blogger Templates. I had included a link back to this blog so that visitors can know from where the template has been downloaded. The good reason, the page had a good SERP rating so my templates are being used at many blogs.Some of them are having high PR's. A thought about keyword targeting struck my mind when I saw my blog reactions in Technorati.First, I included a link back to the template post with different keywords on different templates.I got the keywords from the Google results itself for "blogger templates" .
There are some other good sites targeting :"blogger templates" , to knock them of in the first page was quite a difficult task.So I started with smaller keywords like "new blogger templates" , "blogspot templates" & "3 column blogger templates".It took time for my post to get a decent ranking even with some 400 back links to the post itself.I also changes the default from "Download three column new blogger templates" to "New Blogger (XML) 3 column templates.The reason is here
Over the past few days, I have experienced a lot of Google DanceLast month I cracked into the first page result & mind you, it wasn't an easy task.2 weeks before this post got an ranking of #1 for term "new blogger templates".But the Google dance continued.We slipped from#1 to #2 and as I write this post, I saw it at the third place.But believe me, I have taken over some reall biggies like stopdesign.com {PR8} & blogger-templates.blogspot.com {PR6.Technorati Rank #4}.
As we all know Pagerank is continuously being changed and its only history that we see in the Google toolbar, does this give a hint where the template post would be in terms of PR? I am keeping my fingers crossed...Make Money Online with Webtalks!
Not all blogs get some really good back links.I have included the keyword "Webtalks" for the homepage of the blog and I rank #1 for it{At some bad times, I slip to #2}.Webtalks itself makes no sense{if it does, I don't know what it is}I just wanted to keep the title easy.With the Blogger Title hack , I changed it to Webtalks-Blogging,Online Money Making,Tech tips. But that too was a waste.Now I'm thinking of the ever popular "Make Money Online" keyword.So in your next visit to this blog, don't be surprised to see the title "Make Money Online".Cool isn't it?Points to be kept in mind while keyword targeting
If you get lots of links with the same keyword.You may rank better in Google.Because Yahoo & Live Search takes take domain age into consideration.- Don't Google Bomb.Be slow but efficient.
- Google will also take some time to give you an appropriate rank.Till then,experience the Google Dance.
- Before choosing a keyword, just go through Google Trends to find out whether the number of queries are enough
- The title of the page dominates the SE ranking.
