      Hi, This is my site: http://hemorrhoidssuccess.com/ I have got some decent natural links with a mix of different anchor texts. My main keyword is "Hemorrhoids Treatment", And i got very less exact match anchor texts.

      Now i was able to rank for "Top Hemorrhoid Treatment" on #2 Page, but i was not in the index for the my main keyword "Hemorrhoids Treatment". Can you review my site and let me know, what i am missing? Do i need to get more links? If so with what anchor texts?

      Will be waiting for your replies..

      Thanks in Advance
      Dhee

        Your site Logo is an image with  your domain name.
        
        <meta name="<a class="attribute-value">keywords</a>" content="<a class="attribute-value">hemorrhoids treatment, hemorrhoid 
        treatment, treatment for hemorrhoids</a>" /> It is no longer used!
        Title tag: Best Hemorrhoids Treatment! What is your branding effort?
        
        Are you looking for a natural, safe and effective treatment?
        
        I will never rank you any higher than the last page of Google. 
        Are you an MD to offer treatment to people? That is highly 
        irresponsible. Take that from an MD which I am. **Hover over  Visit Hem-Relief’s Official Website** it says that it 
        links to http://hemorrhoidssuccess.com/hemrelief but takes you
         to http://www.westernherbal.com/products/Hem-Relief.html????
        
        All of your links are doing the same.
        
        Why in earth will I would like Google to provide me your website if 
        I am searching for Hemorrhoids Treatments? As an user I would like 
        to have reliable professional medical opinion not a website with bunch 
        of pills with affiliate links promising a miracle that is not FDA approve 
        or backed up by evidence base medicine..
        
        What are your terms of services? Is your stuff FDA verifiable?
        
        Footer link to your domain with keyword Hemorrhoids Treatments!!! 
        Over optimized!
        
        plus also you own http://hemorrhoidtreatmentadvice.org/ that ranks
        on the first page with the same website your posted here. Duplicated 
        sites? Why?

          Hi,

          Thanks for your suggestion, but already there are a bunch of affiliate sites ranking well for that keyword and i am the one trying to rank for that keyword. Moreover, i am an affiliate for herbal products which offers treatment for hemorrhoids and there a lot of satisfied customers with herbal treatment and it requires no FDA Approval. I am not selling any illegal drugs here, You can search for the reviews of the products i am affiliate with it, you can see many good reviews, i just selected the best herbal treatments with good reviews. And moreover i am not offering any Miracle here.

          And for your point visit official site:
          Yes i am an affiliate site, but i am pointing to official sites only but not any fake sites.

          And that was not my site, some one ripped my site but ranking well for that keywords.

            Wow, if someone ripped your site then you must try to contact that person first because they are outranking you for your keywords.

            This is how I may approach your situation:

            1. Change your site design or layout since it is the same as

            http://hemorrhoidtreatmentadvice.org/.

            2. Report that website to the domain registrar.

            3. There is nothing wrong with holistic medicine or herbal medicine.
            But you need to be the star of the topic. Provide information and advice
            about the condition. Link to relevant authority information and keep
            people informed. Always say something like the FDA has not verified this
            information and consult your physician before starting any new medical
            regime. That will make you Legit and a reliable seller. Brand your site.
            Like I mentioned: that footer link does not make you any good it will kill
            your rankings. That was old SEO that was killed by Google many years ago.

            4. Get a subscriber email list.

            5. Link to your blog from the header and provide unique useful information.

            6. Provide real contact information.

            7. Add term of service and hammer that it is a herbal remedy so you will not be liable.

            8. Add about us page and what you want to achieve with your site and company

            9. Then concentrate on branding and link building but with a brand on mind. You can check SEOMOZ webinar on branding.

            Best of Lucks

              But,

              I am concerned with one issue here.

              Why i was able to rank for Top hemorrhoid treatment, but not Hemorrhoids treatment?

              I was not even in the index for the keyword Hemorrhoids Treatment.

              Do you have any thoughts on this.

                Because:

                Hemorrhoids Treatment is a Highly competitive keyword 69%

                Top Hemorrhoids Treatment is moderately competitive keyword 49%

                Which means that with the on page seo and the anchor text you have used can rank were you are now but it does not means that by using the same strategy will get you anything for a highly competitive keyword. To fight for those keywords you must show expertise in the area and provide value to Google users. In other words you are competing against Harvard, Mayo Clinic, WebMD, etc.  Just remember that Google does not own us anything. They are a private company that will try to provide its users the best and most relevant information when they search. In other words build a site for your users and not Google. Concentrate on your site and not what Google will think about it. Then you will see how ranking will flow for you. Today is a good day to read very careful the Google Webmaster Guidelines. Follow them and you will be a happy webmaster.

                  Ok, Thanks for your suggestions.

                  Btw, How do you measured the competition in %? Is it from Adwords or what?
