My .org.uk Knocked Off Page 1 by .co.uk
My keyword domain site on a .org.uk domain had worked its way up to the top half of page one and had been there for a while. It was getting a few hits a day and making a few sales a month. Today I checked my stats as I do most days and noticed it was no longer on page but the .co.uk version of the domain was sitting at number two!
I’m pretty certain when I bought the domain that although the .co.uk was registered there was no site on it – otherwise I wouldn’t have tried to compete with it as its a bit cheeky to use the same domain as an existing site in a small niche.
From doing a site: in Google I can see it has about 150 pages against my 10 or so so I guess the better site has won. For now…
To my untrained eye it does look like they are using some kind of feed to generate all the pages for the site. This is something I would like to try myself but have no idea where to start. Any ideas?
