• Is not unusual, it is simply less frequently searched on
• Is not a single world term
• It is aptly described as a keyphrase and consists of two or more terms which narrow the search
• Ideally receives its fair share of traffic each month, but does not receive hundreds of thousands of searches per month
• Can accurately be described as “targeted” *

Note: Don’t make the mistake of thinking that low search volume = targeting. Likewise, don’t discard what might be a highly targeted keyphrase just because the search volume is low. Even 3 searches per month could translate to an extra 36 sales per year.

Proper keyword research is the key to beating the SEO game. However keywords aren’t the only factor. You also need to determine how many sites are competing with you on those terms. You can do this through keyword research software or, in Google, simply enter in a term and check the upper-right corner for Google’s “results 1-10 out of..” report. This will tell you how many sites Google has indexed with that term or phrase.

If the results are at or under 100,000, you’ve got it easy! It’s like being back in the early days. All you need to do then is set up properly constructed pages employing standard optimization tactics. Most of the time this will suffice, as many of your competitors have not optimized and basically ranked on accident.

However you don’t want to make any assumptions. Take time to browse through the top 10 listings. Examine the referring page’s keyword density and link popularity. What you want to do is beat at least the second page of the top ten in ranking.

Well, I’m one of them. Somehow it inspires me to make something awesomer than what I see.

I wonder if theres any visitors who searched for Busby SEO Test landed on this site and think about the current design.

Shall I make it more interesting and cliche?

I’ve came up with an interesting post while surfing for random sites finding inspiration.

It listed the 6 Design Cliches of 2007, which includes

1. Cute Cartoons and Mascots
2. Swirls, Drips and Florishes
3. Broken Borders
4. Oversize RSS Icon (really, it’s been around everywhere, people do RSS nowadays, I did it myself. Tee-Hee!)
5. High Textures Design
6. Rich Colours with Dark Background

You see, Reading the detailed description in the page does really make sense.

Ofcourse some says, Rich content with crap design works. Well, I agreed on that.

BUT

When it comes to artistic views, I think designing should be part of it too.

Now, Who’ll thought that good design will make good impression for greater link backs to make this Busby SEO Test Supporter contestant blog go ranking up and running at the search pages?

So, Who’s up for good design here?
