Secret way to rank No1 for any keyword Guaranteed!
It’s true, you can rank No1 for any keyword in Google and it’s completely white hat.
If I can do this myself then why am I giving away valuable information for free. To be honest I just havn’t got the time to put together the deal. Also it’s a mite expensive, current estimates for this specific keyword ranking scheme would cost around $80 Billion. Which is a lot more expensive than buying a few text links.
The closest estimate I could find to the worth of Google is $155 billion, buying 51% of the company for $80 billion will allow you to insert your websites to the top of the SERPS.
It’s great if you want to rank for viagra, obviously you would have to sell a lot to make your money back. But I hear that the viagra market is rising quickly these days. With the stiff competition in the viagra market it may be worth buying half of google. You could easily shaft the competition.
Joke over.
This is the only way I think I could guarantee a keyword ranking. I constantly observe other SEO consultants and companies guarantee number one rankings. Some add the proviso that they can reject any keword a client suggests, but then anyone could rank for “black and white kittens on crack”. Hardly a guarantee worth making.
The only guarantee I make is to give 100% of my skill and experience to the task at hand, if it can be done then great, but there is always that possibility of not being able to deliver to promised result. So many variables cannot be quantified. Sure any experienced SEO can get a quick idea of possibilities, but to seal that with a guarantee, I don’t think so.
If an SEO consultant is confident enough to offer a guarantee, they should be confident to offer a double your money back if the campaign fails.
Never do business with any search engine optimiser who offers ranking guarantees.

Well said as always, a guarantee is not worth anything in SEO industry and what is number 1 today is tomorrows supplemental (well maybe not that extreme). However its hard to get that across to joe public, we live in a culture of this will happen or your money back (even if “it” is a shoddy job) clients measure results while we some times forget we are providing a service based on others work (in this case the search engines) and therefore we may have a good idea of the outcome but unless you work for google algorithm department and are moonlighting how can we guarantee anything?

Well drafted Title there. And agree on all the points you mentioned above. A no.1 rank cannot be guaranteed and anyone who does is either black hat or fraud.
Cheers!

Very catchy title. 80 mill is nothing if you’re Bill Gates.

Sujan, it’s true 80 mill is pocket money for Bill, but it’s $80 BILLION, which I don’t think he can afford. That’s saying something.

I agree… you got me with the title.
As with all businesses, consistency is always the best way to achieve things.

Only guarantee a SEO can give is his previous achieved rankings ;)

Ranking can be guaranteed. What can’t is how long it will take and how long it will stay. All it takes to rank for a term is enough links and anchor text from the right places. That has been the rule for years now. Only difference is that you have to have higher quality links and more of them than you used to.
I agree that there are some factors that can make it impossible.
1. The SEO dies or is incapacitated in some way
2. Google removes computers and uses humans to rank websites
3. You go to Google and tell them your name and the site your trying to get ranked and tell them everything you are doing to rank.
There are some “black hat” things that only become “black hat” to Google when you tell them why you did it. Google seems to consider motivation when it comes to something being SPAM. An example would be buying a website and putting up a 301 allowing your site to rank for the term that site ranked for. If a high profile company does this Google has no problem with it. If some small or new company does this Google would consider it SPAM. Especially if you make it pubic that is why you did it.
One of Google biggest problems is that large companies are starting to be aware of what they can get away with. Google cannot fight SPAM when motivation plays such a large factor.

Interesting post Ogletree, however I disagree with the claim that a no1 rank can be guaranteed. A guarantee means you assure the client of a specific outcome. For example ranking no1 in Google for Cellphones. I don’t see how anyone can promise to gain a no1 position for this term as other SEO’s are trying to do exactly the same thing at the same time.
9 out of 10 doesn’t cut it. To be able to guarantee, to make that explicit promise and assurance you have to be able to rank for whatever keyword whenever you decide to. If your techniques fail once then what is the guarantee worth.
The guarantee is absolute, once made there can be no equivocation. There are people out there who can rank for anything most of the time, especially using the juicey techniques you have outlined.
However, I question whether their hit rate is 100%. If it’s less, if you only make 2nd, then the guarantee is fake.
Some things are fine in theory and could get 100% hit rate if not influenced by variables that exist in the real world.

I’ve heard a lot about SEOs that do nothing, but publishing an offer of paid text links to their customers on their web sites.
Would you accept to pay some holidays without any warranty to get where you wanted to? Why would a customer want to pay if you don’t guarantee anything?
April 29th, 2007 at 7:30 am
There are all kinds of SEOs’ out there performing a variety of dodgy services.
There is a difference between a guarantee and a warrenty. A guarantee promises an outcome whereas a warranty promises to fix any problems.
I only promise to work on a clents site to the extent of my knowledge and expertise. The results are mostly defined by that, but there are variables beyond your control and if you cannot 100% control the outcome your guarantee is false.
BTW a guarantee means hitting the target 100 out of 100, not 99 out of 100.

I agree that spamming google is a bad idea, and that anyone who claims they can guarantee a ranking is probably full of it. They can sure as heck try…
All of the places that have called me up offering me SEO services - I ask them what keywords they suggest and the phrases they pick are always 3 words or more and have less than 1 million results and get less than 1000 searches per month in yahoo. I told them that they were ripping people off - and that I could do better in 3 days - sure enough - I am still ranked 3rd for a phrase in question - and I haven’t done anything with the site for over a month.

Well said. I don’t know how much money I wasted before discovering that fact for myself. I believe in adding quality content and developing relationships with my clients to drive traffic to my site. Fancy SEO tricks and empty promises are a good way to get your site blacklisted.

I agree with you, there is no SEO expert will guarantee to be number one in SE position. However, if put on top position, let say 1-10, it still possible. In fact SEO is not really difficult.

I think the only secret to rank No 1 is to do optimize your web page for search engine crawlers.
