I know I keep bringing up the JV giveaway thing but I can't help it. I just started using them this year and have had phenomenal results building my list. I have added more subscribers in a month and a half then I did all of last year. Not to shabby, eh?  I have been busy creating a Hub page and Squidoo lens targeting the keyword phrase "jv giveaways". I wanted you to see how quickly this system works for keywords that aren't hyper competitive.

The web page graphics promotion is coming along. Grafixplus has moved up to the 230th spot, which is 20 postions better than a week ago. As long as we keep moving up we are in business. The problem is that most people that are involved in web design and graphics also know there SEO. We are copmpeting against a lot of sites that have been optimized for the search engines. It will take longer to make the top 20. The Hub page and Squidoo lens have also been moving up in the ranks as well.

Here is the difference. I made my Hub page for JV giveaways a few days ago. It is already listed on the third page of Google results. I just published my Squidoo lens yesterday so we will give it a couple days but I am sure it will be up in the top 20 results within a week. That is because the sites listed under JV giveaways are not "authority" sites that have been around for a long time. When you search for "web page graphics" you get a lot of websites that are 5 years old or more and have page ranks of 5 and 6. Those kind of sites pull a lot of weight. It will take longer to pull ahead of them.

Do you use Firefox web browser? If so, you can download a plug in called "SEOQuake". When you enable this, you will see all kinds of information in your google results pages. It will tell you how old the site is, what the page rank is, how many back links it has, how many listings in Yahoo, and Msn,  the Alexa ranking and more. This tool is very useful in determining your competition.
