SEO: Internet Entrepreneur
A big part of Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is optimizing for a specific keyword set (i.e. What keywords do you want your site to rank highly for in Search Engines?). When I was performing keyword research for Truebluetitan.com, one phrase stuck out above the rest: Internet Entrepreneur. It generated a decent amount of traffic and really fit with the new direction of this site.
Breaking Into The Top 5 In Google
Today, about 4 months after I began optimizing, Truebluetitan has broken into the top 5 sites for “Internet Entrepreneur” in Google. This is a fairly great achievement, especially considering the other sites out there volleying for the top position. Among them are Tyler Cruz (more on him in my next post) and Yaro Starak, two highly respected people in the community.
Google seems to change their algorithm daily so the victory dance may be bittersweet, as I know of people who’s site was ranked #1 in Google one day, only to seemingly vanish from the Search Engine Results Page (SERP) the next day.
Other Search Engines
60% of all Internet users using Search Engines use Google, so you can see why it’s important to me to be #1, however, a large portion of Internet users rely on Yahoo, MSN Live, and ASK.com as well. So it’s also important to not just focus on the almighty Google. Here is how Truebluetitan.com is doing within each of these engines: Yahoo (ranked #2), MSN Live (ranked #8), ASK.com (ranked #21).

Rob,
Congrats on the ranking. How much traffic are you seeing from that term? Just curious.
I found your blog yesterday and read through a few of your posts. Great blog you have going here. Keep it up!
Hock,
First things first: Thank you for taking the time to read through the site and comment on a post. I greatly appreciate it and your feedback is valued.
The amount of traffic I receive each day depends on my listing within the Google. I’ve noticed an increasing amount of clicks as the site continues to climb up the SERP. An average day’s clicks is less than 100, but not by much…not too bad for one keyword phrase.
Rob,
That’s a lot of clicks per day for that one phrase - more than what I expected. I’m ranked #1 for “money making blogs” but I’m seeing less than 10 clicks per day on average from that term.
I use Google Analytics so I can drill down to the keyword level when I’m looking at the traffic stats. Is that how you’re determining the amount of traffic you’re getting from that one phrase?
Thanks.
A article on SEO would be much appreciated

Looks like your doing good. I have a 1 week old site that is now getting 10,000 hits a day but I use social networks and web 2.0+ sites as well as Entrecards.
Im starting using that keyword “internet entrepreneur” from my 1st time get involved in internet marketing. Im choose it since i got one subject called entrepreneur and im decided to combined both of words in one keyword. 2 years ago, im always at top of 5. A sweet experience for newbie like me. Good luck with your site and keep it update.
