Recently I’ve seen a blog (root domain) go from page 1 and get dropped to results position 800+…I’m thinking it’s something other than the blog rank & tank issue with that one. The owner probably hit the submit sitemap or pinged it too hard is my guess. Trying to figure this one out.

Terry, I’ve noticed this a few times with a celebrity gossip blog I used to run. It always helps to have the proper long-term SEO fundamentals down so that the traffic sources aren’t so “fly-by-night.”

Nice article. I think many people focus on short term goals when looking at SERP’s but hte truth is you need to sustain your rankings and this is by creating a long term strategy and working very hard. Nothing comes easy…

This is an excellent case study in itself – 4 months later and this post now ranks #2 for “rank and tank” (at least it does for me here in Spain). Excellent content, practicing what you preach, as always

Thank you Tony!

Glenys – As far as I know its going to be a print publication only. We’ll have to keep our eye on StomperNet for any other word.

Speed, if anything their crawling is faster than ever. But no, I dont have any official answer to that… And the follow-up article is coming soon. I held off putting it up right away as I had a few more details to put together for it. Should be up by Monday at the latest

I am very excited about this article because I am setting up a blog now for the first time and see the amazing potential to increase traffic this way. I am interested in knowing if a followup article was written to let us know which phrase you used to increase your traffic so high. This article has given me new ideas on the direction I want to go with the article. It’s also very interesting to know that Google is paying so much attention to blogs. I wonder whether this slows down their crawling on non-blog sites, would you know the answer to that?

Hi Lynn,
Did I say I was here to stay? Yep, I’m pitching a tent in this blog! I have to read the upcoming case study.. waiting…waiting…

And I’m waiting for my Stompernet mag too, on your recommendation of course. Though I doubt I’ll be able to keep it, simply due to the cost of shipping to Australia. Any chance of a downloadable version?

Another link tip, if you have written a good previous post on the topic, do a nice anchour link to it.

You see Lynn do this at times, it’s good for getting eyes on old post and ALSO helps this very rank and tank, helps to “keep it up there” so to speak.

I like sharing tips lol… all helps, karma means I get to good tips too.
