Top 4 In 43 Days
Feb 13 by Marcus Hochstadt | Posted in Business, SEO, Traffic Generation
My blog is #4 on Google for its main keyword internet business after only 43 days.
Yes, you read that right.
If you ever researched keywords and/or markets and niches, you probably know that internet business is a highly competitive niche market. Yes, it’s not a niche, it’s a market. Some folks wouldn’t even consider entering that industry. They think they would never make it against the “big guys.”
I’m about to beat ‘em. :-)
As a disclaimer, when you go to Google you’ll likely see different results. The screenshot above (click on it to see the large version) was made on the Brazilian version google.com.br. On the U.S. American portal google.com, my blog is on #847.
Still, as you can see I compete against 179,000,000 (!) other Web sites, and I’m on #4. Cool… (It has a reason my Alexa Ranking in Brazil, as of today, is at 15,675…)
I’m going to share my tips and strategies that I think are responsible for this with you soon, so stay tuned.
Just wanted to give you a quick heads up. :-)

First Month Results
Feb 2 by Marcus Hochstadt | Posted in Business
One of my New Year’s Resolutions was to start a blog. I did launch a blog on the first day of January. That means we have a full month worth of blog statistics.
Entrecard was my #1 referrer in January, although I started with it on January 19th. In those 12 days I received 939 visitors from Entrecard. (482 in the first seven days.)
James Brausch was my #2 referrer in January. Thank you very much, James. I really look forward seeing you in March. Have lots of questions. ;-)
The #3 referrer was “none” as visitors either clicked on the link in the blog announcement e-mail, typed it in to the browser’s adress bar, or… well, you know it can have many origins.
Google was my… no, not my #4 but my #10 referrer for the entire month. ;-) However, in the first half of January Google was on spot #4.
Here are a couple other numbers…
- Alexa Rank: 337,618 (Dec. ~3,000,000)
- Technorati Rank: 166,367 (Dec. ?)
- Technorati Authority: 47 (Dec. ?)
- Google Page Rank: 3 (Dec. 3)
That’s it. Short and sweet.
