This is not a short term strategy of course. If you want to be number 1, have to work for it.
1. make sure your site is nice and have something people want to buy or read. if you have a crappy site, no point reading further.
2. setup a blog on blogger, myspace, or any other domain other than your own hosting company or your own site.
3. write nothing but quality reviews about the stuff you are selling. do not link back to your site at all.
4. contact sites in your field with relatively low PR or new sites and ask them if they would like you to write an article for them. do that after you write a few first. i doubt any site will turn it down.
5. after a few month of hard working on it, you should have some kind of PR or at least good traffic. now it is time to work on promoting your original site. here is what i think you should do:
6. now contact high PR sites that are in your fields, and ask them the same thing, except this time, ask them to link to your original site on a page that has no other outgoing links. it can be front page, subpage, whatever page. you write an article about them. and both of you are happy.
7. this strategy over long term means you are building nothing but one way links into your original site.
what do you guys think?
after a few month of hard working on it...
It's a commonplace that real businesses can lose money during their first year or more. So don't get discouraged if you don't find success after a few months of non-spammy promotion.
...now contact high PR sites that are in your fields...
I would suggest removing "high PR" from that sentence so that it reads,
Now contact sites that are in your field...
yes, one year is a short time if you only want to make money from the SERPs. better prepare for 2 years if your environment is competitive.
Another strategy is to do a bit of keyword research for highly searched terms with not a million articles on the subject already out there and write on them.
