    Default SEO Contest any lessons learnt?

    Hopefully, this SEO contest will not be just a waste of space, we should all be able to learn some new stuff.

    So far, has anyone learn anything new? One observation I made (which is not really new) is that site with the keyword in their domain name are doing quite well.

    Any other observations?

    - Domain with Exact match keywords rocks!
    - hyphens sucks
    - Google is highly unpredictable.

    Arora, for a newbie you are doing fantastically well and the points you have learn are quite good, don't forget the part domain name and keywords seem to play in the process.

    Steve,
    I agree with you an all the 3 points, especially the domain with exact keyword match bit.

    I have and SEO client who registered a domain name just because he likes the sound of it but no keyword in it whatsoever, I have serious problems getting him to page 1 for his desired keyword but he is on page one for the keywords on hos domain (which is very competitive) but now related to his services

    Point taken, Temi.

    He mean don't use WordPress hosted blog...

    It's fine to use the software as long as you have own hosting account and domain name.

    Thanks for clearing that Skinner,

    Wordpress.com & wordpress.org have shown there true colors during this seo contest as they shut down several blogs which were entered in to the ukww contest, not only that i personally think the ones they shutdown had valuable content in them unlike some spam magnets.
