    My Blog finally broke the top 10 on Google!

    Roger Bryan Business Blog

    Just broke to #7 on Google for Business Consultant! This is the first time in my three month SEO Project I was able to crack onto the front page. I had been floating between 13-35 for the past month. I'm sure it will move around a bit but I'm still sticking to my goal of the #1 position by the end of the year.

    I'm still working on a lot of the new content sections which should be done by the end of the week.

    Wow that is great, congrats. That is quite an accomplishment. Did you(or whoever did your SEO) tried to adjust to google only search metrics?

    In complete honesty I used: Roger Bryan’s Business Blog for Entrepreneurs and Small Business Owners

    I did two Unique Content Packages and 12 Article Database Packages in the last 90 days.

    I'm trying to rank for four things
    home page - business consultant #7 - 50% of work
    home page - for sale by owner #54 - 25% of work
    home page - auto auction #178 - 10 % of work
    FSBO page - for sale by owner UR - 15% of work

    The nice thing is that this system continually is building more links with out me having to do any additional work. It was a bit expensive but I'm adding a ton of new subscribers each month and now with my new layout and top page ranking I really think my blog is about to take off.

    Now I just need to start making more posts... and finish the last few pages that need to be done.

    That's great and congrats!!

    For the people on here who have service business in a certain geographical area one thing that is vital is putting your city in your website title. I own a carpet cleaning business and am on the first page of both Google, [first listing on Google maps], Bing and Yahoo.. All of this is not costing me a dime!

    Makes a world of difference when you are on the first page.

    Congratulations. Just a few tips to get you to the top:
    1. Submit a site-map and refresh monthly.
    2. Interlink your blog posts together.
    3. Contact other bloggers in your niche and request to guest post. Will generate more back links to your blog.
    4. Contact current back link websites and request a change in Anchor text if it does represent your blog appropriately.
    5. Make sure the meta data in posts are specific to the post.
    6. If you have PDFs on your blog as I do make sure to treat them like individual web pages and apply keywords, titles ect.

    As a full-time web developer, these are just a few of the MANY techniques I use in our clients' websites. These should bump you up or help in the efforts.

    Good job!
