SEO requires lots of planned & strategic Hard Work and patience. You are lucky if you are getting good results within specific time you have decided for what you have done honestly. Else you have to put some extra efforts to feel lucky.

One can also feel lucky after being a spammer until s/he is not caught by search engines for his misdoings.

All the best.

All is about calculation and statistical, there are not such thing call "luck".
The "luck" is for those spammer who not yet being catched for this moment but not longer

luck plays absolutely no part in SEO, its all down to person's dedication. Well there might be some luck when it comes to pagerank thou.

These days it's a Niche, otherwise they will pick your site out of millions because it is better, not that easy..

You can also be lucky if you get a manual review and they think you're worthy of the boost in rankings.

The question was "Is there such a thing as LUCK in SEO"

The answer is YES!

I got new blog that got added in to a top ten blog the first day i posted ( even before i indexed it )

of course there is luck! its just another varible. hard work is another varible.

people have been posting "hard work" hard work does not mean you will produce anything. its all about "producing" and not hard work. digging a hole is hard work, borrowing a digger from a friend and digging the hole in 5 minutes is producing.

I don't believed that there is luck in SEO, hard work, consistency and patient are needed in SEO , plus creativity and skills to have a good result. it is not a one snap of a finger.

You'll be lucky if you are a hardworking person and if you have patience on what you are doing.

it's always hard work w/ Luck... no pure luck

Its a little like what Sherlock Holmes thinks - 'Dr Watson - Coincidence is one thing, luck is another, too much luck is just unheard of'

Luck can be defined as a chance happening, or as that which happens beyond a person's control. Luck is often regarded as a superstition, but it can be interpreted in many ways. - From Wiki

Hi MIT my man,

I just love your quotes, even if they from Wiki, they are still so adopt :-)

Stay sharp mate and speak soon.........

Filepeter · 03-20-2008, 04:07 PM

Many people define their unsuccess with bad luck, in my opinion there is no such thing in Search Engine Optimization, as long as you are during everything correctly, the Google Gods will be pleased. If not, I'm sorry for page 178 buddy.

Its the same in real life, I believe in the very first charge of everything.

The more efforts you provide the better it is. It also depends on your way of persuing the things, using right techniques.

webcreationuk · 03-23-2008, 03:02 PM

Thats right Anie B - there is no substitute to hard graft and thats is all she wrote

you are right arcel. Many of us are just waiting for luck.

Luck? I don't think luck as a good term in SEO, SEO requires a hardwork, creativity and techniques. so if you're aiming high having this characteristic will give you a good benefit in SEO.
