Can A New Blog Bump a PR8 Site?
Can a new Blog take the # 1 Position in the Google ahead of well established PageRank 7 and PageRank 8 websites?
The Under Dog Blog I am talking about has not been optimized for the search query in question. In fact, the EXACT PHRASE can not be found any where on the on the page. (This is not a joke or a trick)
- The Blog Has No Google PageRank!
- No Inbound Links Reported By Google!
- And No Alexa Data What So Ever!
Update To Blog Post
After well over a month in # 1 position, my research subject has slipped to the # 2 position. I’ll quit acting like a smart ass jerk and give you the facts.
Here is the search query: poway real estate search (opens in a new window)
The top position for this listing is due to the exact occurrence of the search query within the url itself. I’m sure know that our would have figured it out in a few moments.
All the PR7 & 8 sites are still ranked below the Under Dog Blog so the fundamentals of this query and my conclusions appear to be intact for the moment. The only change appears to be a new site that jumped ahead of the study subject. It may be a paid listing that just falls lower than I’m used to seeing them land on a page.
If you have any insights to add about this website and it’s ranking ahead of all the big boys of real estate, I wold like to hear from you. If your interested in how to make use of this kind of exact query to url match using sub-domains and some fancy keyword generation feel free to contact me. I have been doing this for almost 8 years on MSN and it started working in for Google after the Mayday Update and has been going strong and stable.
Matt Cutts has made it clear the Mayday update was a success, Google is pleased with the out come of the changes and there are no plans to change or roll back any of the changes. To me that is a green light to go ahead and optimize for the Mayday Update with confidence and gusto.
