What Happened To My Q1 2008 SEO Goals

It is not what I did planed but yet I am satisfied with what my Q1 2008 SEO Goals were and what I had to achieve for the first quarter of 2008.

I can blame weather, dog, cat or whatever comes up to my mind, but the fact is that the only person I can blame is myself for getting into too many things, trying to please too many people and not being able to do all that (and this is a life lesson to everyone, and it will suit best on a new post).

At the beginning of this year I announced what were going to be my SEO goals for the first quarter of 2008. When referring to seo goals of course I was referring to rankings on the search engines and mainly on Google search engine, and my ranking goals which I aimed for are the next

• Page #1 keyword: Learn SEO
• Page #1 keyword: SEO Tutorial and SEO Tutorials
• Page #1 SEO Resource and SEO Resources

What Have I Done For My Goals

If you have been a regular reader of this blog then most likely you know how busy and how everything has been out of my control the past months. I kinda predicted that I will get really busy and hence I welcomed guest bloggers too. How ever lets take a look at where my rankings are today.

• keyword: Learn SEO Position: 9 Page: First
• keyword: seo tutorials Position: 9 Page: First
• keyword: seo resource Position: 6 Page: First

What is missing from the list is seo tutorial and seo resources. These rankings have been obtained thanks to internal linking I have used in this blog along with other on-site optimization techniques such as the title optimization, eliminating duplicate content from your blog and content. This means that no off-site optimization has been used to obtain these rankings.

It might sound absurd to you that a website can rank better in the SERPs of the search engines by just using proper internal linking structure, and I will try to explain this with a new post so subscribe to my RSS feed to follow me on this subject.

If you do have a blog and would like to optimize your blog for search engines and obtain better rankings I recommend you reading seo for wordpress blog post, which is interlinking to other useful posts to seo optimize your wordpress blog, and its all for free.
