      Hi ,

      I just start one page website ( website that give a user one service like backlinkswatch . com or prchecker )

      This niche is so competitive and the first 5 results for keywords that  I have selected for my website have a google pagerank > 4

      I know that ranking for high competitive keywords take more times but what Can I do to make it fast without getting penalized , all what I hear now is guest post and guest post and guest post any other idea ??

        Create the page on such a way that everyone would like to share it. I've seen several 1-pages that have received a high page rank in short period because it was fun (because of design or something else) to share or such a good tool to have. Everyone started to share it.

        One example: this domain is having the question "Can I wear shorts?" in dutch in the domain. It has a pagerank of 3 now, without any other text:

          Guest posting is not the only option... infect guest blogging for link only is a bad idea... I would advise you to focus on broken link building, ego baits and infographics as by this you can get quick and better results in less time!

            This isn't the fast way, but it's the way to make it last -- make your page and service better than your competitors. Before you start trying to drive people to your site, make sure that your site is perfect. Have three people look over the text on your site for any typos or spelling mistakes or grammar errors. Make sure the page looks good in all of the major browsers. Make sure that your site clearly states why it is better than the competitors, and why people should use your service when there are other competitors available.

            You usually get just one chance to make a first impression, and you want to make sure that you make a good impression when you're going out to send people to your site.
