sure how quickly Google picked it up..

Position on exact match #23

Maybe not that fantastic but its out of 69,000 / 20,000,000

Default I got ranked in around 4 days

I set up my Tumblr blog on march 18 at lunchtime, but after a couple of days google still had not found it.

I then social bookmarked it on a dozen of the best ones, and by lunchtime on the 22nd of march, I was in 23rd place for broad match and 11th for the exact match.

Not a bad start...

thanks ed

Default I wasn't even expecting this!

I can't believe I got ranked, I feel like I wasn't even "unleashing hell" at all!

On Friday night, around 8 pm, I gave my blog some "love" and social bookmarked it on a couple of the big sites. My teammates are MIA so it was just me. I wasn't really expecting to get ranked at all.

I wrote an ezine article tonight (Sunday night) and decided, just for fun to check and see if anything came up for my umbrella phrase.
I was blown away to see that I am #5 for exact match and #23 for broad match!

How exciting, but I'm not sure if it even counts because it's technically the Digg site that I socially bookmarked that leads to my blog. It's still awesome though.
Ed, Dan and the rest of the 30DC crew, you guys are the bomb!

I am shocked. I am really shocked.

My post on Hubpages is ranked #1 on Google exact match and #4 broad match after only 3 hours.

Still reeling from the shock.

Well done!

It sounds like you did some great market research and keyword research!

John - it looks like your site is sandboxed. This can often last for a few months.

Essentially you're "grey-listed" - Google knows about you, but isn't quite sure if you're "old enough" to be trusted yet. So it doesn't give you the full value of your rankings for a little while.

The good news is this: The page that you're reading, right now? It's ranking in the top 10 for "Personal Training Norwich"... And if this thread can rank well for that search term - with so little relevant to it - it should be reasonably easy for your site to get up there too!

If you want 3-hour rankings like tgkessler, the secret behind the 30 Day Challenge is to not start afresh with your own site and try to get through the Sandbox quickly.... but instead, to leverage off other existing sites (that are already out of sandbox).

That's the reason this forum is ranking for your keyword... because it's not "grey-listed" (sandboxed).

It's also the reason why people who are putting up articles on Tumblr, Hubpages etc are getting ranked in the top 10 in hours.

I hope this helps!

Brent
