Thanks

Matt

I am still going it alone! The site is starting to generate a bit more income, not a lot, certainly not enough to give up the day job but it has improved. I kind of gave up on the SEO with the exception of forum links, what’s that show called? ‘Can’t compete, won’t compete?’ !!!

I started a google ppc campaign which is still runing but not quite paying for itself

Two years ago I never thought it would be this hard, now I appreciate how a minnow can’t compete alone amongst all the pike in the pond… I’m still open to partnering with any proven SEO guru’s, to take this ‘evening’ experiment into profit…

I can’t get the traffic on my own I need an expert or two/three/four/five who might make a team with me to at least try and make an indentation on the insurance traffic….

If anyone is interested then give me a shout matt@getquotes.co.uk

I’d be quite comfortable to give 4 people 20% each for the 5 of us to take GetQuotes.co.uk to a level where its making good money with the thought in mind once its worth something decent selling….

On phrases like that (which you’ve probably noticed in your Google Analytics stats), all it has taken is the text in your first paragraph on the page. Google has little to go on for these sorts of phrases. It’s not uncommon but you definitely won’t get such easy success for the phrases you’ve chosen to target.

What in particular about them to you mean?

http://www.justsearching.co.uk/about.html give you an overview, are there any specifics you mean?

Those are quite niche terms, uncompetetive. Maybe you have those words within your page content, or someone is linking to you with similiar anchor text. That would be enough to get you ranking for those terms.

Generic terms like ‘car insurance’, ‘cheap car insurance’ or ‘compare car insurance’ are extremely competitive, and you need an aggresive ‘link building’ strategy to compete for those terms.

Right as you know from my previous posts I’m at a fairly basic SEO level…

What I want to know is why I am ranking highly on the following search terms…

For example
quick compare insurance and insuring a motorbike

No1 and No2 in google with nearly 1/2m returns, can anyone point out why my site ranks well for these terms?

I know they are phrases that not many people type but why so high on these and not other terms?
