TBO Media Ltd

Evening all,

Just a quick update on our latest progress on our Google Challenge on the keyword phrase web design hertfordshire.

It has been a busy few weeks for TBO Media, but we have not forgotten about our ‘little’ challenge we set back in October. So with November upon us, how are we doing in Google?

Well, from the first week position of 227 on page 23, we have climbed to position 180 and sneaked onto page 18! So if my maths is correct, that’s 47 places and 5 pages, in less than a month. Remember, these figures are with a highly competitive search term, on a new website. Having a site already ranking ‘OK’ in Google will see results much faster, as the website is already known in Google’s eyes.

So imagine if a website was already on page 5, and we carried out the same work on another search term? Well, depending on the term and competition, it could be a lot closer to the first page of Google. Simple.

Lets just recap – we have moved up the Google rankings by 47 places in 3 weeks, that’s 47 potential companies, all going for the same keyword phrase, we are now ranking above. Of course, page 18 is still waaaaay off an end result for us being ‘competitive’ for this keyword phrase, but these early signs of movement in the rankings are an important, and encouraging start.

An important lesson to take from this is search engine optimisation is always going to be a long term project. Anyone claiming they can get you top of Google in a day should be questioned further – there is no ‘silver bullet’ fix for ranking high, and it is not an over night fix. Sorry to break it to you!

We don’t know about you guys…but we are looking forward to seeing the next Google update in 3weeks!
