<strong><strong>Indexed:</strong><span style="font-weight: normal;"> com:July 23,org -,net,July 24,info:-</span><br />
<span><strong>Top 10:</strong><br />
<span style="font-weight: normal;">fulldragon.com</span><span style="font-weight: normal;"> at pos 2 25th of  July<br />
fulldragon.net at pos 3  26th of July<br />

fulldragon.org at pos 5 3rd of August</span></span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span><span style="font-weight: normal;">Update August 5: All sites are now parked on the first page. The main problem now is that there are YouTube and image results on what appears to be place 2, 3 and 4, so my sites appear at positions 5,6,7 and 8 instead of 2,3,4 and 5. According to first page click share estimates, my sites now get 15% of the clicks instead of the 31% I would get if those results were not there. The top placement alone would give more that all my sites in either case, though.</span></span></strong></p>
<p>The idea to once and for all find out how big of a difference the .com, .org, .net and .info top domains will cause in the search results came when I was buying the .com domain for fulldragon and the registrar flashes me a promotion to get 60% off for the other top domains. I fell for their offer and decided to do an interesting test. The term full dragon is a very common search term among Runescape players and it also has some decent competition so a good placement does not come for free. According to Google it has 2,900 searches per month with exact match.</p>
<p>Said and done, the domains are all placed on american servers and running identical wordpress installs and template. There is an article about the full dragon that was written by my collegue and it actually contains very good information that will keep visitors on the site and even appreciate the visit. In order to give the sites equal link power, I will link to them in reverse order on another site. The sites are: <a href="http://www.fulldragon.com">www.fulldragon.com</a>, <a href="http://www.fulldragon.org">www.fulldragon.org</a>, <a href="http://www.fulldragon.net">www.fulldragon.net</a> and <a href="http://www.fulldragon.info">www.fulldragon.info</a>.</p>

<strong><strong>Indexed: a long time ago</strong><br />
<span style="font-weight: normal;"><strong>Top 10:</strong> January 2010. Currently at position 5. The commisions from wow gold sales started to pour in from www.wowgolds.com and this is now a successful search engine optimization experiment.</span></strong></p>
<p>As some kind of ending of my attempts to get computer gaming (virtual computer game currency sales to be more exact) market shares in Sweden I have made three more websites for <a href="http://www.wow-gold.nu/">wow gold</a>, <a href="http://www.wowgoldmine.se/">wow gold</a> and again <a href="http://www.wowgolds.se">wow gold</a>! For those who didn&#8217;t realize it yet this is all about getting in the first position of searches for World of Warcraft gold. I also made websites about <a href="http://www.spelammorpg.se/">mmorpg</a>s and <a href="http://www.speladataspel.nu/">dataspel</a> (computer games).</p>
<p>Technically speaking, we are talking about Joomla sites with the swedich installed. They are also .se and .nu domains (nu being &#8220;now&#8221; in swedish) hosted on swedish servers. I will continue working on these sites and even if I think it&#8217;s funny to create new websites, I still hope I wil get some kind of return for creating them.</p>

<strong> Start Position:</strong> 3 at July 13 2009<br />
<strong> First pos:</strong> - (pos 2 at August 4th) <strong><br />
</strong><strong><br />
</strong> One of the sites I have been doing some on-page SEO (search engine optimization) for is www.designsketching.com (this reminds me that I should add a dir rewrite to send visitors to the www. only). The site not displays first position and extra links for <em>design sketching</em> that has a monthly search volume of 2,400. Not bad. The other most popular related terms are <em>design sketches</em> (1,300 - 1st pos!) and <em>sketch design</em> (1,900 - 3rd pos), <em>design sketch book </em>(73, 1st) and finally <em>sketch designs</em> (260 - nowhere to be found). Now we will see if som linking to <a href="http://www.designsketching.com">sketch design</a> will give the site a better position so they can sell even more design books. It <strong>is</strong> a good book, I promise! As far as sketch designs is concerned, it doesn&#8217;t exist on the design sketching website so I will add it and the monitor the results.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Status:</strong> In Progress<br />
<strong>Time Spent:</strong> 5 hours<br />
<strong>Cost:</strong> $70<br />
<strong>Google Pinged:</strong> July 3 2009<br />
<strong>Sites Indexed:</strong> July 4 2009 (the next day!)<strong><br />
</strong></p>
<p>In order to get a bigger total market share of the virtual currency sales industry, I have been creating new sites in <a href="http://www.rpgstash.co.uk">Queen&#8217;s English</a> (as opposed to <a href="http://www.rpgstash.com">American</a>), <a href="http://www.rpgstash.de">German</a>, <a href="http://www.rpgstash.es">Spanish</a> and <a href="http://www.rpgstash.de">Swedish</a>. I got the proper top domains .co.uk, .de, .es and .se, however it seems harder to get the .ca, .it, .fr and .br, not to mention the main asian top domains.</p>
<p>I also managed to put the sites up on swedish and british hosting, however no german hosting yet. Now in order to get the sites to rank on the localized search engines, I would also need inlinks with the correct languages and from the corresponding countries. Again I can do this for UK, Sweden and Spain, but Germany will be harder.</p>
<p>Search terms in goal are as usual the Runescape, Maplestory, World of Warcraft and EVE Online gurrencies; <a href="http://www.rpgstash.co.uk/runescape-gold/">Runescape Gold</a>, <a href="http://www.rpgstash.co.uk/maplestory-mesos/">Maplestory Mesos</a>, <a href="http://www.rpgstash.se/wow-gold/">WoW Gold</a> and <a href="http://www.rpgstash.de/eve-isk/">EVE ISK</a>. The only alternation is the spanish <a href="http://www.rpgstash.es/wow-oro/">WoW Oro</a> for Gold.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Status:</strong> Mission accomplished August 16 2009, it took <strong>48 days</strong>.<br />
<strong> Time Spent:</strong> 2 hours<br />
<strong> Cost:</strong> $14.99<br />
<strong> Google Pinged:</strong> June 25 2009<br />
<strong> Site Indexed:</strong> June 27 2009<br />
<strong> Site Top 10:</strong> #8 reached July 4 2009<br />
<strong> Site No 1:</strong> Mission accomplished August 16 2009 - Successful search engine optimization indeed.</p>
<p>When looking at the Google Adwords Keyword Tool, I often get amazed by how many people search for terms related to Runescape. The other day I was playing around and I found out an astounding <span id="kpViewColumnTitle-5">Global Monthly Search Volume of 74,000 for the term <em>zezima</em> with an Advertizer Competition not being at max. <a href="http://www.zezima.org" target="_self">Zezima</a> is the most known player of the game, and has made his name from obtaining the max level in all skills. A good opportunity for search engine optimization indeed.</span></p>
<p><span>Said and done, a domain (zezima.org) is purchased and the website being built.</span></p>
<p><strong>Update 1:</strong><span> The site is now in place but under construction. It was indexed 3 days after being created and already at #12 for the desired keyword!</span></p>
