How to achieve top 10 rankings in Google? Why are top 10 rankings important? How can you achieve a top SERPS in Google or other major SE?
How can anyone guarantee a top 10 ranking in Google ? You may ask. One of the several tools I use for quality control and web site promotion is the IBP business most small site owners however would get amazing results with the IBP standard version. The only difference is the total number of pages or projects you can control, manage and optimize without deleting valuable data.
There are many companies that promise similar rankings. Most without money back guarantee. The key point is:
Whatever in life you do, if you do ALL, do all correctly and do all to utmost perfection and to the very best of most current knowledge and technology, then you always succeed! No matter what business, including web site promotion and SEO ( Search Engine Optimization ).
Why are top 10 rankings important?
Top 10 ranked pages bring generic traffic. Anything between 10-20 brings some left over traffic. Anything worst than a top 20 ranking is just for hobby! Either you mean business and do all necessary steps to become a top 10 site in a high traffic keyword combination or you may review the values in your life and possibly change your business topics to find a market you truly love and can do with all your heart and soul.
Hence if your business really is your family business and loved content of your life, then your top 10 ranked web site might very substantially help your business success. Web site promotion is an efficient and cost effective way to be available to potential customers.
How can you achieve a top SERPS in Google or other major SE?
Anyone can achieve top 10 rankings if he follows all known quality criteria that matter for search engine rankings of sites and / or pages. Hence if you are a perfect site creator, maintain fully validated HTML pages, always have the perfect keyword density on each page, have sufficient number of backlinks to your pages or site, and meet all other quality factors, etc. Then you have all it needs to become a top 10 site or page. To achieve a top ranking on a keyword is no real secret, but it is real work requiring real efforts from you - the site owner, the business owner. never expect others to give their peace of mind for your business or to sacrifice their nights for your business success. Even if you offer a few ten thousand dollars. Why should anyone invest more efforts into your own business success than you the owner and main beneficiary of your business venture. You and if you have a family business, then your entire family alone are responsible to do all the work, to spend hundreds of sleepless nights and thousands of hours studying the market, the search engines, the HTML page design, etc!
Some quality requirements for top 10 positions
Let's see what for example IBP requires or offers for a top 10 ranking. There are a large number of quality control automatism built in. Backlink control, keyword density, keywords in H+, H2, H3, B, anchor, description meta, keywords meta, title meta, alt, ... and many other most important factors.
For true final success to be ranked top 10 or top 3 among Millions, dozens of Millions or more competing pages you need to do ALL 100% perfect - all at the same time. If you are lazy = stingy in your efforts or want to do only as little as necessary to achieve a top result NOW. Then in a few months you may be displaced and dropped out of the top 10 SERPS.
In this most recent SEO series I gave you ONE tool - your own creative mind PLUS a few exercises - to find the most accurate SEO factors to be top over an extended period of time. You just have to follow those steps and invest whatever time and efforts needed. You do all efforts for your own web site or web promotion of your business. Hence any effort necessary should be acceptable and feasible for you.
The reason why IBP developers offer a money back guarantee if you fail to achieve a top 10 ranking is contained within their below quoted statement:
In the last step, you change your web page according to the suggestions of IBP's Top 10 Optimizer until there are no further suggestions (IBP's Top 10 Optimizer gives your site a 100% rating).
There are factors that apparently matter to Google and other major search engines that are known to professionals and other factors may successfully be guessed. The easiest way to figure out what quality criteria matter to a search engine might be if you think yourself into owning and controlling that particular search engine and you would be in charge of providing rue top quality results to your search engine users!
Some of the quality factors that help a search engine to assess the true hidden quality factors of a web site are or might be AMONG OTHERS:
- Age of a web site. How old is a web site ? - the older or the longer you are in business the more likely you mean it serious with your web site promoted business and the more efforts you have invested into your web site. Web site age is public data and can be verified. If your site is among the oldest or the oldest on a particular keyword = that means you are a true pioneer and leader and most or possibly all others are but followers / copiers of your idea.
- How long in advance is your domain paid. If you have your domain name paid many years inn advance, that means: You are committed and you are financially healthy enough to afford commitment into the far future. Such data are public and can be verified.
- Page load time. How fast are your pages loading. The faster your server = the higher the server quality. A site owner who affords high quality or top end technology shows commitment to quality and customer satisfaction. page load time is available publicly and can be measured individually.
- Does your web site have its own dedicated server with its own dedicated IP. Only top sites run their own server and have one or several dedicated IPs. For example: The Cyberspace Ashram runs on 3 dedicated root servers, own mail servers and own name servers. I give and gave my entire life and temporarily my home in God for the creation of the Cyberspace Ashram. I would be ill minded to save on a few thousand dollars and a few thousand hours extra work running such a life project on cheap servers. Whatever business you do - should be worth your entire life, love and devotion beyond this one tiny lifetime on earth.
- How many backlinks do you have pointing to your site? There are link farms - of course known to Google. backlinks from such link farms may have little or no value at all to major search engines. There are authority sites and quality directories or quality blogs - that add real value when linking to you!
- Your overall site-wide keyword density and site topic. What is the overall topic of your site. How many hundred or thousands or ten thousands of pages do you have on your web site? Is the main topic of your site also contained within the domain name? That would proof that you had a real plan and invested some in depth thoughts when starting your web site or web based business promotion. If you run a web site on free hosting and write about everything expensive on the Google AdSense market, then all world knows that your site is nothing but a hobby MFA (Made For Adsense) site of no real value at all to this or any other world. Hence you may invest whatever and still get no or tiny web traffic compared to professional content sites or businesses living and working in that niche or market.
- Domain name TLD. If you are a little publisher with a .org or .net web site. The the major SE soon find out that you have but a dramatically overblown ego wanting to appear as an organization (.org) or network of experts (.net) rather than as a tiny nobody hobby site. If you want to reach the world, then you never would get a .de or .us or .cn TLD but a .com or similar TLD of global value.
- What is the keyword density within a page. Within each and every page of your entire site. Do you have and maintain a professional editorial style and keyword density or are you attempting to keyword stuffing. With the integration of semantics technology by Google in recent years and possibly also by other major SE, the overall relationship of different words and phrases on your entire site may be more and more analyzed and integrated into the final SERPS and quality factors of your entire site as well as your individual pages.
- Are real authority sites = .gov, .edu and similar linking to you? That would mean you are an authority for authorities ... a leader.
- There certainly are many other quality factors considered by major search engines to compute your SERPS. Above are but an example and I will emphasize on a few points further below.
If you do ALL steps known for successful top 10 rankings, then you most likely get a top 10 ranking. There are people or companies who know most or nearly all important criteria of web site optimization and have integrated such criteria-control mechanism into their software. Such as IPB for example. Some of these criteria never can be met however - for a good and valid reason. For example if in a particular market all top 10 ranking sites are 8-10 years old and you just started your similar site a year ago. You never can meet the quality criteria of web site age! The fact that many OTHER sites with same or similar keywords in domain name and domain title or web page title exist will eternally mark you as a copier or follower. That is poor habit to copy others just because some of them might be rich or successful. To be a copier never can nor should ever be rewarded. If however you have a brand new web site / domain name and find a totally new niche for you, then even with a brand new web site of a few months old you will be a pioneer and leader for all future to come. All you need to do is to attract sufficient generic interest resulting in generic traffic and you will have your success.
Another criteria to be met is backlinks. There are very popular sites with hundred thousands of backlinks from across the planet. If in a particular niche all top 10 sites have thousands or more backlinks, then you too are required to have that or greater number of backlinks to get into top 10 SERPS or you may get lucky and enter the top 10 ranks if ALL or most top ten sites maintain substantial mistakes in on-page SEO. I wrote about on page SEO in a recent article.
In a market of 1'000'000 competing pages to get a top 10 ranking means that you have to be better than 999'990 other pages / site owners. Are you really willing to invest more efforts and acquire more expertise than dozens of Millions of other site owners / page creators? There are many niches with hundreds of Millions of competing pages. To be top 10 site you need also to be quality wise top 10 to acquire a spiritually justified top 10 position! Else you would be pretending and thus fooling your site visitors. Strive for top positions ONLY if you are willing to strive for top quality in your market or industry.
As you see, to be or become a top 10 site in any field requires lots more than a few thousand dollars. To be top ranked you need to be top devoted to your job, work and family. Only true love can provide the power needed to perform top all the way over an extended period of time. Hence time will tell if you truly mean what you currently pretend to be or want to be - top. Keep in mind that every single day there might be more other new sites joining your own ranks of follower or pioneer. If you are a pioneer, then people try to hunt you down by all means - including attempts to buy your web site. To become a top 10 site is one tiny part of web publishing. To remain over any period of time top 10 only shows if you are devoted with all your body, heart and soul.
Backlinks from blogs or social network blogs may be an important key factor in your SERPS - hence time to start building your own by making a Christmas gift of links to others. Remember: The most valuable links are those one way links coming from the bottom of your heart. If you create no backlinks to other valuable sites and resources you have enjoyed in your life, then never expect anyone to show gratitude toward you as well. Read my little how to increase SEO efficiency and backlinks using social network blogs and start right now toward achieving a top 10 ranking in Google by supporting others doing so. Amidst a strong neighborhood it is far more enjoyable to live and far easier to succeed as well in any honest business.
Love and Bliss
