Content Is King If….

It is true, Content is King! Great content will give your blog more exposure, it will help you get listed higher in the rankings provided by the search engines, but you won’t make it to page one of the search results for super competitive keywords even if you had Stephen Hawking writing that content for you.

This blog is a clear example of that theory, because it has a lot of great content in the “make money online” niche, but I still have not managed to take this blog to the first page results for the terms I target. I have had some good results, I do receive free traffic from the search engines, but not the amount of traffic I was hoping for when I got started with this site.

My goal with this blog is to get to Google’s first page for the keywords “make money online”, “make money”, “earn money online”, “earn money”, etc. Anything related to making money, since I have a lot of experience in this field, my goal was to become the king of SEO by getting to the first page of google for those keywords without applying a linking strategy, my goal was to make front page based only on content to see if Content really is King.

Well it is not, even if you have the greatest most unique content, you probably won’t make it to the first page of the search results, because you need backlinks for your site and for the keywords that you are targetting. If you don’t have any incoming links you won’t be near the top in a million years, the  domain for this site was purchased for almost a year now, but it was only 5 months ago when I got into posting articles into it, I was very busy with my other niche blogs that were actually making me a lot of money at the moment. One day I decided to start posting and that is how the whole thing got started, since I had a lot of experience making money online, and I had applied many successful techniques in the past I decided to pass on my knowledge, and see if I could get highly ranked for posting my true money making skills, techniques that really worked, most of these techniques were actually free, the most money I have made online has always been made through free resources and free tools, and it has been a lot of money.

My content has been so good that even without making first page for great competitive keywords I have had first page results for many keywords that have millions of competing pages and have had a lot of organic traffic, i’ve done this without looking for any backlinks for my site at all. My idea was to create great content and let those backlinks create naturally, so if I had any incoming links they were from people that had found my great content through some search on Google. My content has also been good enough to get me a lot of subscribers for this blog, a lot, but apparently google does not care or it does not analyze this either, apparently it is not in their algorithm, I would have to think that the algorithm is backlinks itself and that’s it. Because I have seen tons of first page results that do not provide good enough content and they still manage to be on the first page of the search results, why? Backlinks! High PR backlinks or thousands of low PR backlinks, that’s it, that all there is to it.

Now this is why this article has this title, Content is King if you have enough backlinks to fight with your competition, if your competition beats you with a lot of backlinks or enough high PR backlinks then you don’t have a chance, if you have similar amount of backlinks, and the quality of your backlinks is similar, then content will become a determinating factor, but only then will content matter, in fact you could probably write real crappy articles for less competitive niches than the “make money online” niche, throw some high PR backlinks to those articles if you can get them, and that article would immediatly make page one in Google, and you would start making money immediatly.

Remember there are super high traffic, high paying niches that people don’t compete for enough, most people want to make money online, by focusing in the “make money online” niche, it is a good niche, but there are niches that make way more money, although this niche is like some kind of a passion for most, at least for me because I truly love making money online and learning new ways to make money is what thrills me the most.

So just to make things worth the while and stop wasting my time, i’ve decided to start developing my backlink strategy, I have now officially started creating backlinks for my blog and hopefully I will make it to Google’s first page for the keyword “make money online” very fast. It would be fair if it happened because If Content is King then it should happen, I already have that type of content in here, and i’m always making new and better content, unique content that is. Now its all about the backlinks that will be pointing to my site, lets hope I get enough of them so I can make page one and provide enough people with the kind of information that will actually help them make money, because to be perfectly honest in the first page of Google for the search of this term, there is probably only one blog or site that actually gives you legit information as the one provided by this blog, and that is makemoneyforbeginners.blogspot.com which is written by Grizzly, the rest are just a bunch of sites with not enough information and enough backlinks, and that is why they are up there.

So next time you read that content is king, and you think you will make money and succeed online based on content, think again, content will be great for your on-page SEO which is only a small fraction of the SEO puzzle, it is your off-page SEO what will get you highly ranked, so, is Content King? I doubt it!
