Strengthening my personal coaching site
-
Hello,
My domain for my personal coaching site is my name
bobweikel(dot)com
and I think this is weak for all of my keywords, but I'm sticking with it.
What's some of the easiest way I could gain strength with national keywords so that people will pursue phone coaching with me, terms like
nlp coach
wealth and success coach
wealth coach
personal coach
life coach
I know that these are varying greatly in competitiveness.
Thanks!

Thanks Everyone! I'll develop some stellar content.

Hi Bob
Some great advice from the guys already.
Don't be overly concerned about your domain name, exact match domains don't carry as much SEO weight as they used to. Is more important to have a clear, logical URL structure that compliments your content strategy.
As the others have said, focus on creating and distributing fantastic content, that's unique, fresh, topically relevant, interesting, Valuable content and distribute it via all appropriate methods, such as social, universities...
Becoming an Authoritive figure on your topics of speciality is key, try some guest blogging also and participate in relevant forums.
Regards
Simon

I didn't even check how competitive it was, but good point!

I agree with Ressler.... publish something that is so fantastically popular that it is tweeted, liked, blogged, emailed and talked about by everyone on the web.
I think that you will need to do this multiple times to rank at the top of google for some of your keywords.

Write the be all end all resource for each of those topics, citing your sources (as long as they have a high authority level). Don't try sell yourself within the article, just write it about the topic. Then, ask other people in your field to review your resource, and see if they would suggest making any changes. After you have made a couple alterations, ask them if they would link to your resource from their website.
Then, do some "inurl:".edu" life coaching" searches to see if there are any universities talking about the subject. Send an email to a professor in that department asking them to link to your resource.
Don't focus too much on exact keyword match, just get them to link to it.
These deep links will help with your overall domain authority, which puts you at an edge to rank overall.

Links from sites with iffy link profiles?
So the site http://www.cadenas.de/ appears to have good decent scores from the various Moz ranks, but when I check out the site in OSE there are a lot of really sketchy links that jump out, online pharmacy/drug type links. I should also add that the negative links are seemingly going to a weird blog deep in the site and only appear when I select all links to the root domain in OSE. Everything about the site appears very legitimate except for the link profile which has me nervous. Would you guys pursue a link from this site?

How to Earn Links to Boring Pages on Your Site
We do great in earning links to our homepage, articles, linkbait, and resource pages but we get few links to our product pages which are honestly pretty boring. Do you have any advice for increasing links to these important "money" pages? (we are trying to add useful content to make them less boring and unremarkable)

How do you find out what (and when) new websites are linking to your site?
I may be missing the obvious here, but is there any way (a programme or site) of seeing what new links come into your site? Obviously as anyone who works in SEO, I like to see which links we have got with the work we put in contacting webmasters, etc. But is there a better way than just manually looking through ALL the links? Any help will appreciated.

Value of a link from very large profile site
Hello We have an opportunity to get a link from a very large traffic site. It comes with a price tag, and Im wondering if it is worth it. Is it ok to mention the page and cost? It is the 5th largest internet site. Would be on their benefactors page. There are many other sites linking from the page, and its obvious they are on there for the link value. I know sometimes one link can do wonders for rankings, where thousands of others can not. But wondering if there is any way to quanitfy this. Is it worth it for the value of the backlink? If we link to the home page, the link juice (alot I hope) would pass through to the deeper pages, and increase their rankings for their target keywords? Thanks for your advise. Sam
