(Double Listing)

Google has changed the rules and this info is now outdated – See the latest post here

• Getting 2 Birds with One Stone

I have a question from Mariam [Anti-aging Diets] wanting to know how to get listed twice in the top ten SERP’s.  This is when you have your page in the top 10 and another listed page offset directly under it. This double listing is very cool [also classed as getting 2 birds with one stone].

• Use Identical Keywords

We will assume for the moment that you selected your niche and long-tailed keywords [LTK's] carefully and already have one page in the top ten SERPs.  Then to repeat that, you have to optimize another page with the identical keywords and with an equal dose of linking authority, and  internal site linking.

• Double  Listing – AKA, Double Indexing and Indented Listings

Double Listings are also known as Double Indexing and Indented Listings.
Double indexing can also refer to the situation where you have the same site listed twice, once as http://www.whatever  and again without the www in the URL. A Double Listing with the indented listing directly below is the ideal. Another good example of getting a double listing in Google SERPs is this post from Lissie [search on Site Build it Scam Review] which opened up the whole topic of Scam Reviewing of affiliate products.

• Good SEO

Google ranks each page on it’s authority for the keyword being searched.  This authority is made up of relevance, plus the authority and relevance of the incoming links to it. So to get onto that coveted top ten page you need to apply some SEO to your page and get your keyword coherence in place.  That means placing your keywords correctly; getting your internal links set up as in “Rocket Your Site to No 1 in Google“; and setting up some quality backlinks, as in  Grow Your Links Like an A-Lister.

• How to Monetize your Site

Finding out how to get listed twice in the top ten SERPs is a good step on the way to finding out how to Monetize your Site! Getting in the first five of the top ten will just about guarantee you get traffic, but doing it twice [double listing] will really guarantee it!

The reason why CommentLuv guarantees premium keyword backlinks is that this plugin seeks out your last post and uses the Post Title as the anchor text.  Did you get that? It uses the POST TITLE as the ANCHOR TEXT

• Absolute Best Anchor!

What keyword(s) best describe your post? Well that’s a no-brainer, if ever you heard one! You couldn’t get a better anchor than the title text, because naturally you used the main keyword(phrase) as the post title! You did, didn’t you?

• How does CommentLuv Work?

This is a little WordPress plugin that works on comments so that whenever you leave a comment, it looks up your own last post and inserts a link to it that looks like this;

“Rhys´s last blog post..How To Hide Adsense From Social Traffic.

(See Andy’s CommentLuv site for how to implement this in Blogger, Etc.)

• Page Rank from Back Links

Page rank and authority are computed by Google using the number and quality of the back links to it. So a really major part of blog SEO is getting ‘quality’ back links.  A back link from some blog with anchor text like ‘Rhys’s Blog’ does almost nothing for your post authority, but a backlink that echoes the blog keyword(phrase) is exactly what Googlebot looks for and uses to compute the value of the link. Get enough of them and your page rockets up to the No 1 in the SERPs for that keyword. Enter CommentLuv!

• Turn off NoFollow!

To get the best value from CommentLuv for your visiting commentators you must turn off NoFollow.  This is a built in function of blogs that inserts a rel=”nofollow” code in every comment link.  You need to hunt for the DoFollow plugin, install and activate it. Then your commentators will get the maximum benefit from their comment and link, and hopefully, will return to your blog in the future……  Yahoo and MSN Live ignore the nofollow code, but they hardly send you any traffic anyway, so it is important to set this up so your backlinks will count in the vital place – Google.

• How to Maximize It!

What I do is search for blogs with related subject matter that use CommentLuv, and if they have NoFollow switched off, I bookmark them and regularly visit there to comment. This helps the subject blog with building comment volume and traffic, and it helps me with really top quality back links to nourish that darn picky li’l Googlebot spider gadget. This process is called ‘Link Luv’ by Andy Bailey, the inventor of CommentLuv, and you can visit his site and discover a whole range of stats, etc, which are also available to users. (NB. To check if nofollow is switched on/off: Goto the View Menu and choose View Source. ( in FF highlight the comment link, right-click, and choose View Selection Source).
