Since one the best free ways to drive traffic to your site is trough search engines it’s really important to have high ranks for your desired keyword(s).

This post is going to inform you on how you can easily archive your desired keywords by doing the right thing at the right moment.

Is the search volume high enough to drive traffic?

Some keywords are not worth ranking for since they are not popular and never searched for, thus those keywords are not going to benefit you any way or form. A perfect example would be “Pros and Cons of Modern Economics”.

On the other hand, there are keywords, which are almost impossible to archive, and thus you should not target them as well. For example, “Economics”.

The perfect choice would be something that is not difficult to archive and yet people are actually search for it. So the perfect choice in our example, would be “Modern Economics”

So what’s the best way to check for the keywords search volume? There are a number of tools to do so. However, most of them seem not to work now due to unknown reasons.

The best alternative would be, this Google Tool, that perfectly displays keywords search volume.

Learn from your successful competitors

Do a search for the keyword on a number of popular search engines and see who are your competitors. Once, this is done, analyze the sites. In other words determine what those sites have and you don’t. Check their backlinks, anchor texts, places where they are promoted and so on.

There are various tools available on the net to do so. Some of them are Iwebtool tools and SEO tools by SEO company.

Establish linkbacks, as your desired keywords and anchor text

The most important thing you should do whenever you desire to archive high ranks for the specific keywords you should use anchor text to help you.

“Linked Text” Anchor text is the text that you click on to activate and follow a hyperlink to another web page or another web site.

Also remember that if you are promoting your website using banners, it doesn’t help your SEO ranking it helps only your traffic stats. So the ultimate choice would be to place anchor text right under your promotional banner.

There are a lot of places to promote your resource and I am sure that you are fully aware of them. All I want to bring up to your attention is List of Forums to Announce Your Directory, which is going to help in your promotion.

In conclusion, I would like to mention that you should try to be as much ethical as possible so don’t use black hat SEO and link spamming techniques.
