The Coolest Guy On The Planet an SEO EXPERIMENT - By Mark Ress


Hello and good day SEO Enthusiasts,

There is a reason why this article is called "The Coolest Guy On The Planet SEO EXPERIMENT By Mark Ress". You will notice that not only do I mention it in the title and first line of the article but I also have it mentioned several times througout this article next to my name.

This article "Coolest Guy On The Planet" is an seo experiment in progress. You see I've been working in SEO for the past few years. Actually dabbling and experimenting with it due to not being "formally" trained in search engine optimization. I have used black hat SEO and gray hat SEO in the past but finally forked out the cash to get trained by one of the TOP SEO masters in the nation. I will NOT mention his name due to not wanting to create SEO competition for myself but what I can tell you is that when you look up the terms SEO, SEO Training, SEO Course, etc. etc. they are always listed on the first page of Google as they are true masters of search engine optimization. My instructor is a genius and has the respect of many SEO veterans out there. My instructor has worked with some of the biggest companys out there with regards to providing them seo services. He took on one such company who wanted to be number one for a very competitive term and got them search engine optimized and ranked top ten in record time. Now if that is not being the coolest guy on the planet I don't know what is BUT he's not going for that title I am. More on me in a moment. Back to themortgage story. That term was so competitive that it was said it could never be done. My instructor not only did it but has kept the number one position for that term. I believe it was mortgage loan or home loan I really can't remember. I mean taking on the mortgage industry for a very competitive term like that can be very expensive and a lot of hard work that would take others way too long to complete. That is why people would say it could not be done but he did it. I was trained by him and now am ready to see how far I can get Mark Ress the coolest guy on the planet in this seo experiment.

Now for the who am I. I am Mark Ress and not only am I an SEO but a really good one at that. So good that I can move Mark Ress The Coolest Guy On The Planet up the seo charts without a doubt. As for the person who holds the number one spot well there are many ways to cheat the SERPs to get yourself there. I am not calling him a cheat but if you analyze his page it does not follow your typical SEO guidelines for on-page or on-site optimization. If you know anything about SEO you know that people can Google bomb anything into the top of the rankings by just getting a lot of high PR backlinks to point back at them or rather the URL they want to rank well for a particular term. Especially if your anchor text contains the words "Coolest guy on the planet". That would really help and do the trick. To me Mark Ress that is NOT being the coolest guy on the planet. That is simply cheating. Again I am not calling anyone in particular a cheater. That is not what I am trying to do here. I am trying to do it the right way though. The natural way. Again anyone can blackhat there way to the top if they know how to do black hat seo tactics but that is not what I want. I want Mark Ress the coolest guy on the planet to rank well organically and naturally.

At the time of this writing there is a gentleman by the initials of B.F. who is number one for the search term "The coolest guy on the planet". If you go to Google.com and do a search on that phrase. I would bet he is still number one. I have seen many people try to bump him from that number one spot but so far they have not been successful. They slide from the 2-10 position but B.F. is still number one. If you're wondering why I don't mention or spell out his name it's because I do not want to give him anymore help staying in the number one spot. I want Mark Ress the coolest guy on the planet to get to the top ten for the search term coolest guy on the planet and eventually give B.F. a run for his money. If anything I will have had fun doing it.

You see as the story goes from one internet marketer who became famous for selling a manuscript about "butterfiles and marketing" B.F. and the butterfly guy met in Las Vegas. One night they were together at the same table gambling and the butterfly guy heard B.F. say to one of the female dealers I am "the coolest guy on the planet." She kind of laughed it off and then B.F. said "No really type it in Google and you will see bf.com. Remember that the B.F. stands for the guys initials. So the butterfly guy thought B.F. was joking but then later saw he was not. In the butterfly guy's research he found that there is a
group of SEO "guru's" all fighting for that number one position for "the coolest guy on the planet" but no one could knock B.F. out of the ranking for number one. So this is how the story goes or at least how I read it in an article.

Well instead of going out and trying to get a domain name with the words coolest guy on the planet in the domain name, since I did not want to pay, I just went to blogger and set up a totally free blog which took me all of two minutes to do. It takes longer to register a domain and then on top of that pay for it. Since this was just an seo experiment to get Mark Ress the coolest guy on the planet to rank well for the search term coolest guy on the planet I thought I'd just save a few bucks on the registration. These other guys, most of them anyway, paid for and registered domain names for with the search term in them but I did not think it was necessary.

So now you know a little history about the whole "coolest guy on the planet" thing and why I Mark Ress wants and is going to rank well for that search term. I just think it would be a whole lot of fun to do
it too.

Now as of this post in less than a month I got mys site http://coolestguyontheplanet1.blogspot.com/ indexed which was pretty good (and easy now a days) considering there are almost a million plus pages for the term coolest guy on the planet. Two days later I noticed that it shot up to the 147th position and then two days later after that it was the 41st position. I have not been using blackhat tactics but following some simple SEO basic rules for organic growth. You will soon see that Mark Ress the coolest guy on the planet will be ranking in the top ten for the search term coolest guy on the planet. How soon I can not tell you but hopefully soon.

As it stands right now B.F. is still number one and the butterfly guy, who has WAY TOO MUCH time on his hands, has a few different sites and pages ranked well for the term coolest guy on the planet. If you just perform a search for coolest guy on the planet in Google you will see the results but since this is just an experiment I am not worried about it. It's all for fun to me.

Now one thing I did notice is that at different times of the day different results show up and that is because millions of pages and websites are being submitted to Google everday. Of course not all of them are going after the search term coolest guy on the planet but Google is still getting pounded none the less so if you check the morning results for a term and then check mid-day and THEN check at late night or early a.m. you will see the results change. Some times the result changes are dramatic. That is because Google is utilizing various servers across the nation and world pretty much to serve up these results. Do they have just one bot or index? Hmmmmm now that is obvious that they do not. They have several just like several servers managing their index at any given time which does not include all the back up systems. Either way Mark Ress the coolest guy on the planet will rank well given enough time.

One more ingredient I am adding to the mix is articles. I will be posting this particular article up on several article sites just to see how much of an impact they will have on my rankings AND to see how many backlinks I can acquire in a specific amount of time. Again this is just an SEO experiment but since
others have used this method so will I. Does it work? Of course it does BUT you have to know what you are doing and it would be nice to have control over the anchor text on other people's sites who will be pointing back to you. Placing your keyword in the anchor text for the backlink is vital. Slowly but surely those of you reading this "Mark Ress the coolest guy on the planet an SEO experiment" article can track
the results yourself.

If you are reading this and would like to take part in this experiment with me then place a link back to my website http://coolestguyontheplanet1.blogspot.com/ with the anchor text or link text reading "Mark Ress the coolest guy on the planet". The link text or rather anchor text should contain all the words within the quotes. That is just one of the many ways you can get yourself ranking well for a particular term and a really important one. If you can get back links from high PR sites or what are considered authority sites then that's even better BUT there is one difference in what I am doing. Let me explain.

Earlier I said that just getting a bunch of backlinks is simply cheating in my eyes because you can buy back links or create them with software now a days on blogging and social bookmarking sites. Some refer to that as Google bombing and Google hates that. Technically you can point a bunch of backlinks to a site and have the anchor text or link text not contain any keywords to a page and get that page ranking well for another term. Here's an example. Look up the words "miserable failure" in Google. What appears as the number one result is our President George Bush's official Whitehouse government website. What you will notice though is that the words miserable failure are no where on the page or in the title tag, description, etc. etc. What is happening is so many websites out there have anchor text or link text pointing back to his site with the words miserable failure in them so he wins that top position in Google for that term. Pretty interesting ha? Now if you are providing good content and asking others to point back at you to share this information it is not cheating in my eyes. I have and will be having content on my site for others to learn how to optimize their sites for the search engines. As a matter of fact I already have a few lessons up there for seo enthusiasts to start reading.

Now is this information all new? No and most of it has been shared before but the difference is I will be trying to make it all plain English for people to understand and utilize. I want others to learn from my site and that way they will say that Mark Ress the coolest guy on the planet is truly the COOLEST!

Remember this URL: http://coolestguyontheplanet1.blogspot.com/ and remember the name Mark Ress.

Thanks for taking the time to read this article. I hope it motivates you to continue performing white hat SEO and not succumbing to the black hat tactics. I know it is tempting and very hard to resist BUT if you just hold stedfast you will succeed. Continue to check my site out because not only will I be posting interesting lessons and tutorials but I will also be posting downloads like ebooks and software for you to utilize in your quest for becoming an SEO. It truly is not difficult. I read some where once where it was said that SEO boils down to three things:

1) Technical / Site Structure Issues account for (10%)
2) On-Site Content accounts for (30%)
3) Off-Site Components such as Link Popularity account for (60%)

With that being said you can come to the conclusion that off-page or off-site elements far outweigh the on-site elements. Perfect example is a google bomb like that of the president's site mentioend earlier. There are tons of other examples as well. For instance movie trailers usually are just a video file or flash and have zero content that can be spidered by the search enginges. Yet because of all the backlinks with the proper anchor text that zero content page can rank number one. Let's hope that Mark Ress the coolest guy on the planet has shared some valuable nuggets here today.

So in your opinion is the Coolest Guy On The Planet Mark Ress? You decide and vote by placing a backlink to my http://coolestguyontheplanet1.blogspot.com/ site.

One thing I want to get clear is that I don't think I am smarter, greater or better than those who are ranking in the top ten for the search term coolest guy on the planet. They deserve that title...for now.

;)

Since starting so late in the game and at the bottom of the pile for this Coolest Guy On The Planet title I think it's safe to say I have nowhere else to go but up.

To all those "coolest guys" on the planet who came before me. Thanks for starting this experiment and I hope to make you all proud by staking my claim as Mark Ress The Coolest Guy On The Planet.

Coolest Guy On The Planet's Part 2 of 2 on Choosing Web hosting Services and Domain names for SEO

Hello again,

Coolest Guy On The Planet here wanting to share some more information on the importance of choosing an appropriate web host as well as a good domain name is very important. First and foremost, when it comes to domain names, try to stay away from the silly, stupid, ridiculous or clever. Keep your domain name simple and make it something your customers can remember if they lose the link to your business website. If you're going for search engine optimization I would still recommend having at least one of your primary keywords in the domain name.

Take note that, while your domain name on Geocities or AOL may seem like the least expensive way to go, it may also get you dropped from certain search engines. Some search engines ignore domain addresses that reside on these ‘free servers’ or on the ‘cheap’ servers. The coolest guy on the planet does not recommend "free services" such as those. That is my humble opinion.

Even if your site is recognized and considered by search engines, a professional domain name that uses your primary company name or associated words is likely to get more attention and be considered as a stable business by your prospective customers.

Purchasing domain names are not that expensiv and there are many companies that can register the name for you, provided it is available and has not already been used by another company.

Using one of your keywords in your domain name can increase your score on some search engines. For example, solderingirons.com could be more effective as Electric-soldering-irons.com, if that domain name was available.

You might also choose to establish more than one domain name using keywords and then link your ‘doorway’ domain sites to your primary site. But you will have to pay for each of the domain name and also the monthly hosting fees. It all depends on the type and size of your business and your competition. Going the doorway route can get expensive if you go with .coms BUT the Coolest Guy On The Planet sticks with .infos for his doorway sites.

Keep in mind that some search engines disregard ‘doorway’ sites. So put at least a page of content on the doorway site with some useful information and then link it to your primary site. But don’t design it as an empty page. The other reason being, you can have one, three, five, or even more email addresses that all contain your business name, and give your business a professional feel. When customers get emails from dominicstone@solderingirons.com they feel as if they are dealing with a stable, professional business operation.

No need for customers to understand how you manage all your email boxes on your domain. They just need to feel your business is dependable and reputable.
