Thousands of hits and no 1 rankings

Auto Date Friday, July 21st, 2006

textanon.JPGWith the help of Alex at DotComDosh I put together TextAnonymous.com around 2 weeks ago. Since then the site has been covered by a number of mobile portals, indexed by the search engines, had many hits, and is currently getting some amazing number one ranking positions in Google and MSN etc.

What is most exciting about all of this is that the site consists of just one page (two if you count the pop-up for the terms and conditions) but still gets these great rankings.

My gut feeling is that this may be an initial “boost” for the site and will settle down in the engines soon, however so far the stats are raising well and the positions seem to just keep getting better in the serps.

I did nothing in the way of promoting the site except to link from a few of my exitings websites. This was just to get the search engines to find it, however the coverage that it is getting was 100% natural and I still have no idea how they found the site… not that I am complaining.

The stats for those that are interested after only 2 - 3 weeks of being online since domain registration etc:

    Remember that this site has had no adwords etc and the domain was registered about 1 hour before the site went live 3 weeks back.

    Cool, so are you making any “sales”.

    Yes a few each day or there abouts at the moment. Works out around 80 - 1 quid for each person that send a message so making some good figures. :)

    […] Dave (aka Guincho Guy) over at BrightonVibes GuinchoGuy.com has got a similar service called TextAnonymous. It’s using the same system as Anontxt, but with different branding, and runs on one of Dave’s servers. He’s posted a blog entry about how he’s getting on with his service 2-3 weeks after launch, which is worth a read. Would be interesting to compare the stats from Anontxt with TextAnonymous at the end of the month and see what differences there are. Filed under Money making by alex. Permalink • Print • Email […]
