Hi guys, Just a very quick piece I want to share with you today...I learned a pretty good lesson and I want to pass it on to you. I like to study other sites in my niche and I notice that some of the other sites had offers that were not that relevant to their content kinda like the as seen on TV type of stuff at the supermarket checkout stand. But I thought it was cool I mean the sites look great! And I know I'm a sucker for that kinda stuff.
Anyway, I have held a first page ranking for a few of the keywords on my site with consistency even after the recent EMD algo update. So I thought I would add some cool looking side items to my site and BOOM overnight I dropped from the 2nd position on page 1 to the 8th position on page 1. So I immediately removed the new unrelated offers from my site and 30 minutes later, I was back in the #2 position for my main keyword but did not regain the same slots for the other 2 keywords (as of yet its been a day)...
”A Lesson Learned”......RELEVANT offers are a Big Deal with Google.
