You feel you have done a good keyword research using Jaaxy and off you go to put together your article. You publish your article hoping that you will rank well with that specific keyword and land on page 1 of Google. You publish your article, waited a couple of months for ranking to marinade, only to find out your article is no near page 1 of Google.

What is even more confusing is that you go to Google Search and type in that specific keyword as it appear in your title and other areas of your article. The results will shock you. The article on Position 1 or even 2 may not spell out that specific keyword exactly as it is in the search bar although there are articles with that specific keyword spelled out as in the search bar but, ranked lower.

One then start to wonder, how does the Big Boss really rank?

Besides the uncertainty of how rankings are done, there is something I have observed which I now started to implement.

After you have found a good keyword, go to Google Search and type in that keyword. Analyze all the results/articles on Page 1 using the SEO tricks you have learned at WA. Craft a better version of those articles.

It helps a great deal.
