Ranking on MSN

Although there isn’t much progress with the search engines ranking (we are still in the sandbox), SEO Tools website ranking on MSN is improved. The below screenshot was taken from Web CEO (another seo tool that I use to monitor my seo actions results)

MSN Search Engines

Today I checked if SEO Tools website is been listed on the search engines results pages (SERP). I was happy to find out that the first entry to the SERP was finally made. You will find that MSN search engine (powered by windows live) is the first to include your website in its SERP. It’s very rare that Yahoo will list your website before MSN and almost impossible that Google will be the first due to their sand box effect.

Do not underestimate MSN search engine. Although most of the traffic from search engines you will get from Google, MSN and Yahoo are still a good source for traffic. The fact that MSN search engine usually is the first to include a new website in its SERP, give you a good indicator whether your SEO efforts on the right track. Much better than to wait 6-9 months to get out of Google’s sandbox.

I check on a daily basis the changes in the SERP for all of my websites. You can imagine that I don’t browse each search engine and check my ranking for each keywords phrase. If you are looking for a FREE SEO tool for this task (and many more), download web ceo free of charge. You don’t get a trial version, you get a complete product with few limitations. In spite of the limitations, a beginner SEO guy will find this tool very useful. I believe that an intermediate SEO guy will consider to purchase the full version of web ceo. Its highly recommended that you will try this great tool.

Below you will find a screen shot from my web ceo. As you can see SEO Tools website is now been ranked #121 for “seo tools” keywords. Only 120 positions from the top ;)

Allinanchor Update

Few weeks ago, in my previous article (Advanced SEO Analysis - Using “allinanchor” and “allintitle” Google operator), I explained how we can use Google allinanchor & allintitle operators to learn more about our SEO progress and our competitors’ progress.

Let’s check again the results. I will use again SEO Elite to generate the allinanchor report.

Cool !!!! “SEO Tools” website is ranked #25. At this point you will not find “SEO Tools” website in Google SERP. It’s because the Google sandbox effect that I talked about.
I believe it will take some time until “SEO Tools” website will be seen in the SERP. Anyway, it’s nice to see that we are having a progress.

“How did you do it so fast ?”

Yesterday I’ve got lots of emails from readers of my website who were amazed how fast this website was indexed by Google.

Allow me to say: Don’t be !

The trick is very simple. As I explained in a previous article, all you need to do is to be mentioned on some relevant websites. This is exactly what I did. I signed up in some SEO forum and introduced myself and my new project. I also asked from some webmasters (SEO related websites) to link back to my website. Some of them say no, some were very happy to participate in my realty show. I know its sound simple, but it really is. BTW you all welcome to link back to my website ;)

Don’t get me wrong. To get a high ranking I will have to do much better then that. Keep tracking about my actions with this website.

SEO Tools website now at Google

As expected, it took only few days and SEO Tools website now can be found at Google search engine.
