SEO is a must when hoping to rank high in the SERPS

This is a quick update on my efforts on getting this blog to rank better in search engine result pages. It all started a few weeks back when I decided to do an experiment. I tried to get as many legitimate and ‘legal’ in the eyes of Google backlinks, pointing back to this site with the keyword “make money blogging”.

Although this is not a high traffic keyword, it is a keyword with a lot f competition. Many blog behemoths are ranked in the first page for make money blogging and I wanted to see, if me, a noob, can get there. I briefly made it a few months back, I stayed on the first page enough time for me to get a screen shot that you can see here: 1st page on Google

I don’t deserve a medal for it because I think it might have been due to what they call the ‘sandbox effect’.

After that brief little stay on the first pages, then my blog plummeted back to the dark depths of the SERPS. I drew out a plan, I stuck to it, I even surpassed my backlink goals, and as a result I am staging a comeback. Ideas and money is currently on SERP 2 for make money blogging. It has been there for almost one week. I am hoping that as more of the links I created get indexed I will rank higher.
