Facebok

A Facebook Experiment

Category: Personal


.....

Facebok? If you are looking for the number one online social site in the world, then you got the spelling wrong.

This post is made to check how many find their way here after searching for facebook albeit in a misspelled way.

You may find this intriguing but I’m just trying to test how much traffic I can generate by using the keyword facebok.

According to Google trends, facebok is heavily searched all throughout the year and in fact, it is rising. This is a testament to facebok‘s overwhelming growing popularity.

In the Google SERPs, facebok has 609,000 results.

Not exactly HITLOD but still, if I can manage to at least make the first page, I can still gain a significant amount of traffic.

Facebok has been popular nowadays that in fact, it has already overtaken Yahoo! and YouTube and now sits as the number 2 most popular web site in the world. The number one rank still belongs to Google of course.

Now, do you think there’s a chance that a social networking site take over the top spot from a search engine?

    Hey Ark, this happens to be one of my favorite subjects in SEO 101 – serp experiments :) In fact I’ve put up another website just for this purpose.

    So, how’s the ‘facebok’ experiment going? I think it’s a competitive keyword since facebook.com itself is doing seo work on this same mis-spelled keyword. And there’s actually a website called facebok.com.

    I’d love to hear updates from you and also the seo techniques you used.

    I’m still in the 5th page in the SERPs. Hopefully my ranking improves as time passes by.
