3 Things To Check Before Submitting Your Post To StumbleUpon

==Value of persistance==
Many people are quitters. Being persistent gives you tremendous advantages over your competition. I will never forget my first attempt at ranking high for a very competitive search term. For about 2 or maybe three weeks I ranked in the Google #11 position (generally speaking most people set their Google viewing to see 10 search results at a time. Although my article jumped a few times past the #11 position it would fairly quickly drop to the #11 position. However, I now rank #5 position for this search last time I checked. And I am expecting some specific good things to happen so I do expect to rank a solid 5 or higher in the near future.
Please remember what the famous football coach Vince Lombardi said about his football games. Coach Lombardi said he never lost a football game and that he merely ran out of time sometimes. A nice thing about SEO is that the game doesn't end quickly like a game of football. And once you learn SEO sufficiently, you should be able to hold your Google positions with not a lot of additional effort and merely some maintenance effort that is not very intense at all. Often top rated articles even for competitive searches seem to have inertia in regards to keeping their top rankings for various searches. However, I was recently able to rank #2 for a very competitive social hot button issue as far as a search engine search so even sites with inertia can often be passed with sufficient determination.
