Get Google?s Top Spot - In 5 Days or Less!
In the battle for top search engine rankings some internet entrepreneurs will try almost anything. But pay per click advertising and classified ads are expensive. And hiring an SEO expert cost a fortune. So how would you like to know about a totally free way to get the number one spot at Google - in five days or even less? I know because I just did it!
At the time of writing this article I rank number one at Google for the search term ?free online business tools?. My web site has a screen capture of the Google results taken today to prove it.
By the time you read this and hundreds of people try this technique I wouldn?t be surprised if someone has captured the number one position for that particular keyword phrase from me. And I guess that is okay with me since it actually proves that anyone, including you, can use this technique successfully.
Firstly let me clarify that I did absolutely nothing to get a ranking on that search term until a few days ago. So how did I get there in five days without spending a cent?
I used article marketing. Article marketing involves writing articles that webmasters and editors can use free of charge on their web sites and in their newsletters in return for showing an "About the Author" resource box at the end of the article. This resource box tells the readers a little about the author and most importantly, it includes a web link to the author's web site. You can write articles on almost any topic imaginable, and make them available for republishing at popular article directories.
Article directories are one of the best kept secrets for getting top Google rankings quickly. The reason they work is that the top article directories are already ranked highly by the search engines and more often than not they are spidered every 1 to 3 days.
Here is my true, real-life example. On 7 August I submitted two articles to around 17 article directories. One was titled ?Free Online Business Tools ? Create PDF Ebooks Free? and the other was ?Free Online Business Tools ? Search Engine Positioning Tool?. My primary goal with each of these articles was to inform my readers of a free online business tool and to drive traffic to my landing page at DanielMoro.com where they could sign up for my online business newsletter.
A few days later on 12 August I searched at Google for the term ?Free Online Business Tools? -without the quotes - and one of my articles was number one in Google?s results. The web page showing in Google?s results was my article at JustArticles, one of the article directories I submitted to just a few days earlier. Today, two days later, I am still ranking number one at Google but the article showing today is one of these articles at GoArticles, another article directory.
Do you want to get the number one spot at Google for important keyword phrases relating to your web site? Then consider writing some good articles and submitting them to article directories. Be sure to use your keyword phrase at the beginning of your article title and also within the body of the article.
To be critically honest, these two articles were simply short, useful tips and contained far less content than I usually write in an article. If I had known I would be ranking number one at Google within a few days, then I might have written something longer. But then again, perhaps this was spot on.
