Ranking for Generic Keywords
Ranking for Generic Keywords
In a time when seo has become so competitive, ranking on the search engines for multiple keywords is difficult enough, but when a client ask you for a generic keyword, what do you say.
I have many clients who have asked me to do just that.
I have a chauffeur client who asked me to help him rank on Google for one worded phrases, chauffeur and chauffeurs, l obliged the client and took it as challenge, l wanted to know if my search engine optimisation skills was good enough to do this.
Since taking up the challenge, l have now the pleasure in telling you the client ranks in the top ten for one word chauffeurs and is currently number 11 for the word chauffeur.
The client expressed is delight in showing him that he now ranks for the generic keywords.
To my amazement my client then recommended me to his colleague in a similar sector the limo industry, l met the gentleman in question, he explained he had seen what l had done for his colleague and that is current seo company who was optimizing his website was not doing a great job, l asked him how could l help, he explained that he knew that most of his customers was typing in a single keyword limos and this is what he wanted to rank for.
Again l set myself an almost impossible mission, but anyone who knows me, knows l like a challenge.
3 months in to the challenge the client called me and notified me he found his website was on the 1st page of Google for one word limos, he also notified me that he had another website and would love me to do the seo on this website as well, again you know it, he wanted to rank for a single keyword, Limousines, now l know have generated some success with the generics, but a bit of luck was involved and normally l would not optimize for single keywords, but again l said yes, and yet again l can gladly say that they rank in the top 3 in Google for one word Limousines and also are on the 1st page for one word limousine, how good is that.
Now the word gets round that l can optimize generic keywords, and another colleague of the 1st client contacts me and says that l am just the man to promote his website, you guessed right for one word phrases headstones, now l know l like these challenges, but clients do not realize the time and effort that goes in to a project of this scale, but l think you have got to know me a little bit by now and l accepted the challenge of promoting is website for the word headstones.
Surprisingly it took me a maximum of eight weeks to have the website ranking on the 1st page of Google for one word headstones, l have had the website featuring as high as number 2, but mostly in the top 3 on Google.
Now if you come across this article please do not set me a challenge of this nature, thank you.
P.S l might accept.
