Only a month and a half is left for the isulong seoph sites to put themselves in the first page of google search for the phrase isulong seoph. I’ve been stucked in page 5 of the SERP when I checked this morning. Frankly, I don’t expect to get near page 1.
I’m much comfortable at isulong seoph page 5. My attempt was futile. I am concluding this early that on-page will have no match really against off-page. But then again in real world SEO, dirty tactics can be made to get that spot we’ve alway wanted. And my be is still on on-page optimization.
Why on-page? There are just too little dependency on other sites. I’m not risking having use a technique that used to legal in the eyes of google but becomes illegal after google declared them to be abused too much. Isulong SEOPH did taught me alot about when to use and when not to use a technique.
In real world, I won’t risk using blackhat technique. Especially when the competition for that niche/keyword is hot. You’re only inviting to be delisted in the index and lose that precious spot and money.
Just with everything I do in life, I try to be clean a I can be. Just follow what is right by convention. In the end winning is not everything.
