Top 10
Looking at the title you might think this is a top ten list. Instead, this post is about getting into the top ten.
I have seen a variety of techniques discussed a dozen different ways but the simplest technique is the best.
1. Choose the expression you expect a user to enter into a search engine.
2. Enter that expression into the search engine.
3. Review what comes up.
4. Ask yourself if you can beat anything presently in the top ten.
That's it, that's all. If your site is as good or better than the results that do come up but you are not in the top then you have ten examples to look at and learn from. A big part of how search engines rank sites is based upon the links that sites have. Reviewing your competition involves finding out what links they have.
If you follow these simple steps you should be able judge if your site can get into the top ten.
