SEO - Localization

Hello Folks, I'm curious why my landing page is ranking at #1 on www.google.com.br ( brazil ). keyword: build wizard diablo 3. My lp is above well know domain names such as: wikia.com , blizzard.com , and also above a keyworded domain name: www.wizardbuilds.com/ Is just because my website is focus in brazilian google( .com.br ) or is because my landing page are better than the others( i don't think so)? Thanks.

I understand your approach, but would advise you to consider alternative methods. It provides you no benefit to rank #1 for a term unless people type that term into the search engine. According to Google that term has no traffic at all.
If you rank #10 for a term which has 1000 monthly searches, as a result you may receive ?2% of those 1000 visitors so 20 visitors a month.
Google Analytics allows you to see how much traffic you receive and the exact source of that traffic. Your report for this particular term will be skewed because of this Q&A thread. Try a similar but different phrase. If you earn #1 ranking but after 30 days see zero traffic, your article has absolutely no value despite it's #1 ranking.

Yes, thanks for the comments,
for a entry-level in the SEO community as me, the only way to rank well is starting by long tail.

I'd agree that this phrase is long-tail enough to rank without difficulty. His title tag for example is the best match from all other results I can see - that would be a significant factor.
-
There are a couple factors which stand out:
-
your site is a .br ccTLD. A .com can do just as well if it targets brazil but most .com domains are targeting other countries. Your site would receive a significant boost in .br searches.
-
you are searching a very long tail keyword phrase. There are 4 words. Your page title and URL both contain all four words. A check of AdWords shows no search data at all for this phrase.
It is very easy to rank #1 for a search term with no competition. Just create a web page, optimize for a longtail phrase and you will likely be in the #1 spot for the phrase.

Thanks, Yes, that's mine.

I am seeing this page as #1: www.rpgdicas.com.br/builds/diablo-3/wizard.html

Page speed in relation to SEO
I cannot seem to find any information about this, so I thought I would try to get a few people's opinion. How do you think pagespeed is measured in terms of Google using it as a ranking factor? Do you think they use their internal Pagespeed app? Something during the crawl? Your GA site speed?

Do Abbreviations Hurt SEO Results?
We have certain products that we've abbreviated since it's a bit too long. For example, the word Fair Trade Organic is one of our categories and we abbreviate it to FTO. If I put FTO on our meta tag titles and links instead of the actual word, would that provide a weaker result?

The best way to organize a gallery for SEO?
I need to redo the following gallery
Technical SEO | | UnderRugSwept
http://goo.gl/PFvjE
because besides the fact that it looks ugly, it's an SEO mess. Since all the pages are comprised of images, and the only text is the navigation, I'm getting duplicate content issues. I tried adding a little paragraph of text on some of the pages, but this thing needs a total revamp. My main question is this: is that menu being repeated on all the pages really a good thing? What good is it to, say, on the fire patches page, to have a menu that includes all these keywords for sports patches? Would it be better to just have a main gallery page that lists the main patch types: applique, motorcycle, Scouting, ect, and then once you get to that page, list all the different sub categories?0 -
SEO Info Bing - Logo and Name
I was reading the "How Search Engines Work" which is chapter 1 of the Beginners Guide to SEO by SEOMOZ. Came across an interesting point: "Don’t put the text that you want indexed inside images. For example, if you want your company name or address to be indexed, make sure it is not displayed inside a company logo." Surely most people will alt text their images with keywords or am i missing something here?
