Speed Top Ranking: Rank among the first search results among millions in a couple of days

Tuesday, June 19 2007

Another chapter on Search Engine Optimization and speed ranking on Google. Just an example of how web content optimization, and some web 2.0 cross posting may help your site to rank among the first results among millions in a very short time.

Music has the power

Lately I've attended two music festivals in Barcelona, Spain. The Primavera Sound and Sonar, there I saw a couple of bands, among the others Sonic Youth, White Stripes, Blonde Redhead, Modest Mouse, Beastie Boys, Patty Smith, and took some pictures of their shows.

I made a blog post for each of the show I've attended, adding some pictures with the link to the full photo set posted on Flickr. In a couple of days, really between 2 and 3 days, I ranked among the top 10 results in all searches relevant to either the festival, or the band, in various combination of searches.

No magic involved

It's not a matter of any magic trick, just the correct use of tags, and headings together with alt texts for the pics and title attributes for the link. The posts have been signaled to digg and Stumble Upon. The post itself was sometimes detailing the show, sometimes just a couple of lines. Following a list of search strings together with the rank and the relevant link. (Warning: ranking is always changing, one day you are on top, the day after you are history, bear this in mind if some of the ranking do not correspond).
