Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Thanks for clarifying, what are signs of common foot print. Ones that help me determine if that is what the SEO company is doing in order to guarantee high ranking. My client doesn't know anything about SEO tactics. Are there blog networks that are considered white hat or are they all black hat?

Thanks Keri, how long does it to determine if this site is tied to a blog network. The SEO company working on it for a dentist I work with just posted it two weeks or so ago. mydentistapplevalley.com

I tried Reverse Internet mentioned above. Do I need to be logged in. The site I'm checking on was posted live two weeks ago. Will it take some time to be read?

Can David Beat Goliath.

I work with small businesses with top products that are up against big brands and their online presence.  If I am working with them to create content that meets the needs of all their stakeholders/customers/prospects to generate revenue I wonder if keyword targeting with content can really pay off to get them page one, #1 position ranking. So I ask you this question?

How do you create a story for a small online store that can get ranked on page one for a keyword when you compete with bigger websites (or sites with higher domain authority)? I don't need all the basics, I'm just looking for a key insight or tip that you have found or heard is working for a David to beat a Goliath (and hold their position rank once they get highly ranked). We are up against sites - for viable keywords -who have higher domain authority and in some cases more content or link backs.

Also, I've notice in situations when I do get to page one and I'm in position 7 MOZ analytics show low to no traffic coming from it? Yikes, what do I do to improve that? These are top keywords.
