I’ve been thinking about doing some Multilingual SEO projects for a really long time but haven’t done anything until I got an English-Chinese SEO campaign around few month ago. Now the campaign is doing pretty well. 90% of keywords are ranking on the first page and 80% are on the top 3 positions. Not only my client is pretty happy about the results but also I finally feel the timing is right for me to rank for some REAL stuff in different language.
So here is my new 90 day SEO experiment:
- I am going to rank my new SEO blog for 搜尋引擎最佳化 (Search Engine Optimization in Chinese) on the first page at Google (both Google and Google Taiwan) within 3 months.
- Again, the site will be a wordpress blog and all written in traditional Chinese
- At least one post a week.
- 20000 backlinks to homepage; 500 to each individual page
Challenges:
- FInding popular local social media sites
- Finding popular local web 2.0 sites
- Link requests from local websites, blogs or even my competitors
- Lots of manual works since there are not many Chinese SEO tools available (or simply because I don’t know where to find them ><“)
- The main keyword is competitive (imagine you wanna rank for Search Engine Optimization)
