OH MY GOD!!!!!! I FREAKING DID IT!!!!!!!! AAAAHHHHHHHAHAHHHHAHHAHAHAHA!!!
I am absolutely bugging out right now at 4:33 am. OH MY GOD I FREAKING DID IT!!! Some one bought the affiliate product i was promoting. OH MY GOD THIS STUFF WORKS!! I mean, I always knew that it would, but I AM SO HAPPY TO SEE PROOF!!!
Kyle, Carson, @RICH., Ivetriedthat, Travis, Mission0ps, EVERYBODY I FREAKING DID IT!!!
Ok, now to calm down and tell you what happened.
I've been working on my site relentlessly every other day or so. Not really losing my mind over it because I know that I'll get burned out. N00b burn outs happen, and I refuse to be a statistic. So I literally take it one day at a time. I have to.
So, I went to go check on my clickbank today, which is really really odd for me to do because I dont want to look at it and get depressed when I see a whole bunch of $0's. However, I logged in because I wanted to check on something completely unrelated, and BAM! I saw an extended line. Of course, I nearly creamed my pants but held it back.
So after taking a deep breath, i completely forgot why I had gone to clickbank in the first place because that line caught my complete attention.
Anyway, what i did do however was check my sites ranking....... and would you believe me if I told you that not only am i listed organically for the #2 position... but also for the #1 position!!! Can you believe that?? For the keywords I'm working with, I'm listed 2x here in the US and 3x in the UK?!?! I'm so happy and impressed with myself.

KW research is clearly essential! Jaaxy thank you. You are a gift.
#2
Cisco is clearly in BEAST mode at the moment.
#3
Putting clear cut, concise, fun, and user friendly REAL content on your site makes Daddy Google happy.
#4
I rank, FYI, for exact term search. So which means that I've accomplished a HUGE goal. So all that's left to do is continue writing articles and backlinking so that I can be a powerhouse for the KW and actually be listed organically in the Broad search terms. Which is EVERYONE's ultimate goal.

Don't avoid it. Write Squidoo lenses and articles to boost rankings. You have to do it... its free so why the hell not, right?
#6
Posting relevant comments on forums with your signature and being an active part of the communities you're in is also important. It's also free, so again... why the hell not, right?
