In my Rank & Rent Guide, I showed you how to find really profitable local keywords to build websites based around, and eventually go on to rent them for $1000/month and up.
The example keyword I used in the guide, I actually built a website for and told you guys I would update you on my blog.
Well the first update since I've released the guide is now ready, so I shot a video for you! Please watch to see the proof for yourself. We're on Page 1
If you want to see a REALLY interesting test...
Google the keyword from the video for yourself and see what position the site is now in. Feel free to check out what I've done with the site as well. Once you are done that, come back here and leave a comment on where you saw it ranking. Also leave what country/city you are in, and what version of Google you used to perform the search (ie. google.com, google.ca, google.co.uk etc.)
2022 Update
It's hard to believe I wrote this post in Oct 2015 and just under 10 years later, the site is still ranking #1 for it's main keyword and now a whole bunch of other ones as well.
To this day, the Rank & Rent model remains my favorite model of SEO, and I created an entire course around it, which is bundled with all the software my partner and I have developed together in the last 7 years.
