So today I did it.

I am #1 local business result and #1 organic result for my a specific search phrase I went after about 5 months ago. When I got the site it was on page 5.

Keywords:
cityname airport parking

I have always just built in SEO with all sites I do but this site was something I took over and was not built nor structured the way I like, it was a one page site, even had a table based layout. Had and still only has a PR of 1.

I did a couple very simple things I picked up here and a couple tricks from my own bag and this is the first time I have been #1 and #1.

The best part I was just told:

parking revenue from April 08 = $4,300.

parking revenue from April 09 $14,700.

Traffic up 731%

No new advertising, no new anything, the owner attributes it all to me :)

This is the first time I took a site only to do SEO on it and I am very proud... thanks goes to WebmasterWorld community too!

Outstanding. And, it's not a spam site--it's for a legit biz offering a worthwhile service. Everyone wins when the search engines get it right like this. Good for the entire internet biz. So, we thank you.

Thanks!

I should mention because it almost sounds too good to be true, there was a 7% price increase from April 08 to Arpil 09 so not all revenue increase is a result of this but still.... really good.

Put your prices up and next time ask for stock ;)

Great work, well done.
