I’m a believer that Google isn’t quite the mystery we think it is. Sure, the word ‘Algorithm’ is a bit intimidating, but in the case of Google’s page ranking algorithm it’s not all that complicated. It’s not millions of ‘ultra-complex’ variables beyond our mortal minds that many of us think it is.

It all boils down to 3 core variables that you can control.

1- Content (keywords, domain name, tags, etc.)

2- Links (inbound, outbound, authority, etc.)

3- Activity (traffic, RSS subscriptions, comments, updates, etc.)

Some might think I’m not giving Google enough credit, but it’s really this simple.

Getting ranked is really only about doing three things:

#1- Getting quality, original content

#2- Generating a handful of quality links

#3- Generating some human activity so Google knows that what you’re doing is real and not just SPAM.

I’m sure all of you are doing at least one of these 3 things to help your site’s ranking, but the KEY is to be doing ALL 3 of them. Leave out one, and you’ll lose with Google.
