What is the best method to get top 10 ranking ?
-
Most of my keywords are moderated and some a low competition.. but i want to know what is the proper way of doing SEO to get top 10 ranking in Google.... please help..

I think Matt and David is pretty much right but I will make my own comment on this…
For Beginners obviously there is no good place to start then SEOmoz guide to SEO Beginners…
But if you have done that step then you have to create your website, links, content and almost everything for user and make sure that you are helping user from your efforts…the more you will do work for user the more people will engage with you and you will be able to get top 10 rankings from your desired key phrases… and no Google animal can kill your rankings over night!

I agree with both these answers.
Start by reading the beginners guide to SEO -> make a plan for your site as you read the pdf and start implementing this.
After that Matt is completely right. Make sure visitors want to return and share your site with their friends.
Also use the web-master tips from google web-masters and bing web-masters for your site statistics. Learn how to analyze your analytics and take note of key factors here.
And be patient. Sometimes it take a while to rank well for specific keywords (also due to the facts Matt has described for you). Take note of this. Follow the white-board Friday video's and blog carefully, take notes and do something with the tips and pointers.
kind regards

You need to look at increasing your site authority, so I would start thinking how can you get links to the pages that rank for your keywords and your site as a whole. I would start thinking of ways that you can create content that gets visitors to keep coming back and spread the word to others. Social media is an excellent channel to start building up your relationships with authority/influencers who are related to your niche, by interacting with them on social channels you will eventually be able to put your content in front of them and this will lead to increased exposure and links.
When people ask this question I always say that you should consider a blog if you think you can build a decent one as part of your site and its niche. A blog requires hard work and you must persevere in keeping the posts coming in order for it to become successful. When creating a blog I would also suggest thinking about asking people to guest post on your blog especially those related to your industry who have a good following already.
You also want to think about ways you can create content such as how-to guides and videos. There are lots of good methods out there and I would suggest you search for link building on here to gain a more in depth insight.
Essentially what I would say is remember - great content + exposure = links
links = increase in site authority and in turn ranking.
Obviously make sure you also have all the on page factors in place for any content h1 headers, page titles, etc, oh and a good internal link structure for your site.
Hope this gives you some food for thought...

Rank checking tool for keyword analysis
We are looking for an ideally free suitable rank checking tool to perform a keyword analysis. Previously we used Firefox Rank Checker but currently this is not working effectively as it once did. We use Authority Labs as a paid tool to track rankings but this is a rank tracking platform and not so effective for a once-off rank check to perform a keyword analysis. Any thoughts, help or ideas here would be super appreciated!

Importance of news headlines for their search rankings
Hi there, we're trying to determine how to best write headlines to make our articles more findable. We're a Theater content and ticketing site (theatermania.com) and we're about to publish an article describing outdoor Shakespeare in New York City. We've discussed a few headline options (we automatically use the headline as the page title, although we aren't married to this) below. Are any of these much more findable than the other? For example, are we shooting ourselves in the foot if we lead with "Fill your Summer...." in the first option? Fill Your Summer in the City With Free Outdoor Shakespeare Summer in the City With Free Outdoor Shakespeare Free Outdoor Shakespeare This Summer in the City

Improving the keyword ranking of a subject that we deal with only one or two months of the year
So I run a tip site based on the popular video game series Madden NFL. We also do NCAA and since I started getting invested in SEO, I noticed we aren't even in the top 50 for a lot of these results. What would be a good way to get started? Just throwing in some keywords that I want to be targeted?

Best Practices For Keyword Optimization
Hey currently building a new page on a clients site in the weight loss niche. The keywords he wants to rank for are the following: <colgroup><col width="198"> <col width="64"></colgroup>
Keyword Research | | monster99
| [fat burning foods] | 49500 |
| [foods that burn fat] | 22200 |
| [fat burning foods for women] | 2900 |
| [belly fat burning foods] | 2900 |
| [best fat burning foods] | 1900 |
| [fat burning foods for men] | 1900 |
| [list of fat burning foods] | 720 | His site is new, but he has excellent content production capabilities. My question is, in terms of optimizing the page (the title and url) for these keywords would you focus on the highest volume keyword. In this case the highest volume keyword is "fat burning foods" however is the most competitive and dominated by high domain authority sites (50+ vs. clients site which is around 30). Thus its highly unlikely he will rank for that keyword for quite a while. But for the keyword term "best fat burning foods" the competition is alot less in terms of DA and other factors but volume is smaller with 1900 hits a month. So would you optimize the page (the title and url) for "best fat burning food" or would you optimize thinking about the long-term and eventually ranking the keyword "fat burning foods". My thinking would be to optimize the page for "fat burning foods". And that the benefits of optimizing (url and title) for "best fat burning foods" isn't ideal for the long-run. Any suggestions or advice would be appreciated. Cheers, Mark0 -
