Hi guys,
I created a small niche site on treatment for mental illness. That's my keyword plus my domain and it's a .com - the first thing I did was build the site using Wordpress and added three articles - one written from scratch (outsourced) and two from a PLR package that I rewrote and expanded. Use a SEO tool in Wordpress to analyse the content around my keyword. All three articles scored 70-80% and 1.0-2.0% for that particular keyword. Used their recommendations - each article has a picture with alt text (keyword). Title has keyword, H1 and H2 tags have keyword and meta description and meta keywords have keyword.
I then submitted to google, noticed a few days later I had more traffic. Can now see my domain in google when I search for it, but when I check my ranking I'm nowhere. Is this a time thing? Does google take a certain length of time before determining a ranking? Or have I done something wrong?
I plan to add more articles and potentially embed some youtube videos. But what should I be doing in terms of traffic generation and google ranking? I'm thinking of getting a recommended article spinner to generate new articles from my current ones which I can then put up/rewrite, and also include in article directories with my link in the author information. Is that it? Or should I be doing something else?
Also, not sureo n what is too many ads. I have a small strip (adsense) along the top and two on the right. And a 'Resource' page which links to an Amazon store for anxiety products.
Thanks for all your help!
