The Best Way To Avoid The Google Slap

Welcome to my first lesson…

Today I thought I’d share some of my experiences ethat I’ve gained optimising websites over the past couple of years.

Now first off when it comes to building websites I hate it. I’m very lucky because I’ve got a great team around me, which  I can leverage for task I don’t enjoy.

Usually I have to get a site up very quickly and thus was only building small mini sites – about 5 pages in size.

I Love Minisites…

Let me tell you why, if built correctly you can use the minisite to bridge the gap between you and Google, Yahoo + MSN Too but Google has such a high market share if you optimise for Google It will generally work in Yahoo and MSN as well.

Great the sites up now I need to find out which keywords are the most commercially viable. So I run a small PPC campaign to find keywords that convert.

I only have a short time span because Google just doesn’t like these small 5 page sites and not before long comes the dreaded Google slap.

So to be honest in the early stages of a campaign there’s no good way to avoid it. What I’ve learned over time is to battle out the storm.

Now I have a handful of keywords which convert, it’s time to optimise.

Here’s an example of a 5 page website which is only 3 months old.

The site sells refills for electronic cigarettes

e liquid nicotine
800,000 Sites Competing for the first page
Position 7
See for yourself

e liquid bundle

3,090,000 Sites Competing for the first page
Position 1

To check click here

e liquid bottle

14,700,000 Sites Competing for the first page

Position 3

See the results in Google

Why these three keywords…to be honest I’m ranking on the first page for many more keywords but I don’t want to give to much away…lol

I can’t stress this enough the site still performs even on a shared host, only been live for just under 3 months, 5 page site which Google slapped and still getting first page listings on competitive key phrases.

Image if i were to implement the same strategy on your aged domain, dedicated host, history, content rich site how quick do you think you’ll rank…
