Hello Forum,

There are many specific questions here - what about a comprehensive one?

Anyone here that could start a story with;

"I have ranked highly on Google because I did this;" ?

I think the answer will naturally contain "I have great, unique content", but what else? What did you do SEO wise to win the battle to be Number 1?

There is no answer to such a question.

What you really need to be asking is "What brought success from Search referrals"

You need to look PAST rankings, leave them alone look at what your pages are being found for, and use that to your advantage.
Track back visitors from links, what was the anchor text? What was the surrounding text.

Test anchor text on your own pages, have different anchor text for the same page, which gets clicked on most?

All you ever think is that Search is all about Search engines, Even ten years ago it wasn't and we are well past the days where search is a new thing.

this is wise

Well placed backlinks and good keywords can also help.

As for great, unique content, I'd add:

great, unique content that you update on a regular basis.

I always heard that. I'm happy for them and I'm learning with their testimonials.

Setting Google analytics is a must to track your visitors,to find what keywords are getting better result and to pursue them.I've lately added Video marketing to my SEO activity and can see the difference.

I do SEO both On and Offpage task regularly and genuinely according to the algorithum of search engine and thus if you walk on this way which is most liked by search engine then they will automatic lift you at top. But if try to show that you are smarter than search engine and uses all illegal techniques than you will never comes at top.

So moral of the story is -Whatever you do do Genuinely-means play by rules and win the game.
