      We wrote freakishly similar responses at the exact same time. High five!

        Seeing that there are only ten positions on the first page of google, your chances are not good.

          So simply put based on the amazing responses here, I would suggest to build your site (whatever your niche is) with long tail keywords, continue to build great content, and then over a certain period of time, once you have established a certain trust and domain authority, you could start ranking for a little bit better keywords and the cycle continues. It's simply a continuous process building a site and it's rankings. You would not want a brand new site with 5/10/50 articles ranking for Mortgage or Lamps or Cars or Loans.

          I hope that helps and makes sense.

            hello,

            my website ranked in one month for "web design" in google.gr. It depends on quality and fresh content, content is king!

              The industry is tickets - sports tickets mainly - nfl so they would be team related websites.

              Content would basically be blogs about the current news and analysis of players/games.

                My guess is that is going to be a tough one to start with nothing unless you've got something really great to add that is not already out there. Look at your keywords and look at the competition, then look at your content. Is your content better than what is already on the first page?

                Do people looking for tickets care about current news and analysis, or do they care about tickets? Does your content match what your buyer wants to find?

                  When you said long tail keywords -

                  I have recently begun with my content and keyword selections.

                  I used the Adword's keyword tool and for eg: got a few keywords like

                  laser skin treatment

                  dermatology

                  dermatologists

                  cosmetic laser surgery

                  The competition for these are low and medium. Now what I understand is. If I wish to use them in my articles on content generation I can have them as medium and long tail keywords to write around.

                  So for eg: laser skin treatment   = " Benefits of a laser skin treatment in India" and the url for this article could be /laser-skin-treatment

                  For dermatology = "best dermatology practices"  url could be** /dermatology-practices**

                  Do the above  happen to be the medium and long tail keywords? Am I going in the correct direction. How do I judge and come out with medium and long tail keywords. Please suggest

                  Thanks

                    Well for example there is Stubhub.com

                    How do sites get ranked for E-Com?

                    Putting out good content rather than posting on your own site?

                      Would starting a new site with sport tickets news and linking off that help?
