In Get Top Organic Search Rankings without a Website Part I we discussed three primary ways that you can achieve high rankings in the SERPs (Search Engine Results Page) without even having a website. In fact, for many people it's far more difficult to rank a stand-alone website than it is to rank another type of page or content. Part I of this series discussed the use of Web 2.0 properties, blog comments and videos to get single-page content into the top positions of organic search results. In this second part of the series we'll discuss how Facebook and press releases can be used to get high rankings without having a website at all.Facebook and Other Social MediaRecent internet marketing discussion has led to the general consensus that Facebook is now considered on-par with backlinks in terms of importance in ranking factors. This is also true to a lesser degree of other powerful social media sites like MySpace and LinkedIn.

... social media fully integrates with all levels of society and business.Like all of the options for gaining top search engine rankings listed in this article, Facebook and other social media is free for users to post content. This means that you can build a highly focused Facebook page, publicize that among your fans and other users and cause the page to climb swiftly in the SERPs.Social media is one of the fastest ways to get your content highly ranked not only in major search engines, but consider the millions of active users on each of these sites and the fact that each site has their own search feature. This means you can rank your Facebook page not only at the top of Google results, but also at the top of Facebook searches, resulting in a significant amount of traffic and long-term domination of SERP when done correctly.Press ReleasesPress releases are often ranked highly in search engine results page. In general these rankings are short-lived, generally lasting up to 6 months. However, some press releases continue to pull in top rankings for years after they are published.News sites are ranked differently than other types of web sites and web pages, and while they tend to have an early SERP expiration date as a result of the fact that "news" isn't news if it's more than 6 months old, the strength of those rankings and the resulting traffic can be overwhelming in some cases. However, it's important that your press release is marketed using traditional and online distribution methods in order to gain the right credibility in the right places. It's also critical that your press release is published in relevant media in the proper category and contain compelling reasons for users to interact with it by social media sharing, printing the page or emailing it to other contacts.Because of the fact that most of the sites where you can place your content like those listed above already have the rankings and traffic that you're seeking for your product or service, for some people it makes more sense to rank a singular page on one of these sources instead of attempting to rank a small site. In the final article in this series we'll discuss exactly how to go about getting your "other" internet properties ranked and what you'll need to do to keep them on the first page of results for years to come.But if you need to get traffic and conversions from your web page right now, call a professional internet marketer now for an immediate consultation about white-hat SEO.
