\"SEO<\/a><\/p>\n

If you didn’t know, I posted an entry about the state of SEO Hacker as an SEO company in the Philippines<\/a> as well as the state of other SEO companies here in the Philippines. It’s a pretty long entry and at the bottom section of the post, I disclaimed that it was also an experiment I was running. Here are the results.<\/p>\n

A Little Background<\/strong><\/h3>\n

For quite some time, the keyphrase “SEO Company Philippines”<\/em> is but a few inches short of the “Holy Grail”<\/em> of SEO companies here in the Philippines.

That entry has long been in my mind but I didn’t want to compete yet for the term “SEO Company Philippines”<\/em> because it is a highly competitive term (Although I did compete for the term ‘SEO Philippines<\/a>‘ just to test out Google’s Freshness Algorithm<\/a> back then). Although lately it has seen a decline in the number of queries, every SEO company here was groping to get to first page with that keyphrase. I spent my time focusing on less competitive terms but bring in as much traffic value. I also spent more time building our content, trust, authority, and online branding.<\/p>\n

2 weeks ago, I figured it was time to finally write and publish that post. I wanted to see how soon I can compete with the term SEO Company Philippines. There were factors into play now that weren’t there a year before. Plus the latest Penguin roll-out put down a lot of competition to our site’s ranking advantage.<\/p>\n

Some of the factors I looked into are:<\/strong><\/p>\n
