How I got a First Page Ranking on Google in My First Week!
I just started this site not even a week ago and I am already ranking keywords on the front page and here is how. The first thing I did was targeted a question keyword phrase. Google loves it if you answer questions. You will see in the screen shot below my site has ranked.

Notice the description circled in red. It is giving an answer to the question. Now this phrase " The reason affiliate marketing sucks" is bold text in my second paragraph. The rest of the snippet is my first paragraph and in my meta description. Google is emphasizing the answer before my meta description and the first paragraph. Pretty remarkable is't it?

How Can I Rank It Closer to the Top? I really think that if I move that answer to the first paragraph first sentence I may move even higher. I will test that theory shortly. But by answering a question my site ranked quickly.
So when doing keyword research find key phrases that are asking a question and answer that question with SEO INTENT. I hope this has been something valuable to you and may help you get some more rankings. Make sure the very first sentence of your page leads to the answer. Start it with "The Reason Why" Also include it in the first sentence of your meta description.
Here is an update on providing an answer to a question.(2/11/2020)
I have been able to index a few more key phrases just by my content answering a question. Even if the phrase its self is not a question. Below are some more screen shots of other keywords and what Google found that it likes. They are all answers to a question.

You will find--
Here is why---
These are the 3 phrases I used to start the answer. I still have some more split testing to do on this site and some of my other sites. I was able to get these other key phrases index just with sentence structure change.

Bing likes it so much that I have page 1 snipet at number 1 spot.

You did it! I remember seeing your post when you were asking about making your domain name "affiliatemarketingsucks" and I remember you getting some negative feedback on that name but you went ahead and did it anyway and look at you now! First page on Google!
Super awesome Adam!
Keep up the great work ☺️

That's awesome! I love the way you think. Most people get offended by haters and you let them fuel you. I'm the same way, say I can't and I will, beyond measurable thought!
Keep on keeping on Adam 🤘
All the best,
Melissa
