At the Top of Google for a Single Word

It’s always tremendously gratifying to see a client rank at the top in Google for a premium keyword phrase. Even better when it’s just one word!

I don’t usually write about clients in my blog, but this one is just too too good to pass up! Hat Club is #3 in Google for the keyword “hats” and I’m pretty excited about that.google results for hats

How was it done, you may ask? No black hat involved – instead it has been through meticulous SEO practices and a wave of the Diva’s magic wand.

Since your results may vary a little depending up the data center your IP pulls from, I’d love to know where it shows up in your Google search rankings.

    I have just one word to say ‘WOW’, you did a wonderful job. the “Hats” is one of the toughest keyword “7,480,000 search volume per month”. So what exactly you did apart from On Page Optimization? I think Link building would help to rank well in the search engine. What you say?

      @SEO Pune – They had the links, and good rankings for other keywords, but the move up the rankings for “hats” was all onsite SEO.

  12. Neo says:

    Congrats but did you achieved that using PPC or simply through traditional seo.

    Thanks

    • Seo Diva says:

      @ Neo – Thanks! PPC doesn’t affect organic rankings. The site has a good number of links, but getting it there for “hats” was all traditional SEO.

  13. Congrats Diva! I’m sure “hats” was an extremely difficult keyword to rank for. I would definitely be celebrating if I was you. Can you wave your magic wand over a couple of my sites?

  14. PCtech says:

    Top of the list on the first page for a single word thats popular, thats where you want to be ;)

  15. That is a great thing to share. Congratulations!

  16. Albert says:

    This is a really great. I believe one of the biggest factor that contributed to this result was that SEOclub is of 11 years of age, which has a lot of advantage in terms of domain age and authority, but overall great!

    Putting our site in top ten search engine with single keywords really are difficult. I re-search your keywords ‘hats’ in search engine but currently It rank 6th. Congratulation. Sure it is hard for you to share how to do it ;)
