This morning as I was contemplating selling off some of my sites that I don’t have time to wok on, I decided to check up on one of the sites that I was running a test on. I had completely forgotten about it. Its been almost 7 weeks since I made my post about how I speculated the Mayday Update had more to do with LSI words than anything. To refresh your memory you can check out my post here followed up by a second post about more LSI and the mayday connection here.

The very next day after writing the first post, I took action and decided to bootup my favorite LSI software, The Ultimate Keyword Theme Extractor and gathered 4 additional LSI words that the software provided me with.  I then went back over to site #86 that was ranking at #9 on page 1 prior to the Mayday update and fell to #34. Since it was only 10 days after my sites took the hit due to the new Google  algorithm, I was afraid to do too much but I knew I couldn’t just sit around waiting for my sites to magically rank on their own again. So I decided it would just be best for me to just go back over the site’s content and add the new LSI words that The Ultimate Keyword Theme Extractor provided to me.  So that’s what I did. I basically took the four new LSI words and used them each two times within the body. I did have to fix some sentence structures to get them to read well. I did this for each page of content on the site which was 5 pages.

I wanted Google to take notice that I did something to my site so I wrote a quick 300 word article and submitted it to ezines with the back links pointing to the home page using the main keyword as my anchored text and then taking a random inner page from the site to use for the second link. That’s it. I don’t even recall pinging the site upon approval from ezines but it is possible I did.

That’s it! Just took me about 40 minutes of work, set and forget and didn’t do a single step since. It took 7 weeks for it to rank again on page 1 (it’s currently at #10). So if you are like me with too many sites to work on at once you should try this out to see if you can get your sites ranking with little effort. Even if you took just a few hours to do this on one day, you could possibly get 4-5 sites ranking on page 1 again in just 1-2 months. Not too shabby.
