Tonight I was looking at the stats on my blog. I was wondering why The Secret Download page on my blog was going off the scale with visitors. Over 17,000 downloads to date of the free version of my version of Wallace Wattles’ The Science Of Getting Rich, which effectively the movie and book: The Secret, with Rhonda Byrne was based heavily upon. I am getting over 100 free downloads per day at the moment.
Google #1
Well the secret is that, without me remembering, I had optimised my download page on this blog back in September 2008 when I decided to make my book, The Secret Law Of Attraction (written 2 years earlier) available for a free download. I didn’t do much more except make the book available and spread the word on Social Media sites. The rest has been left up to the good tool called: Word Of Mouth. Meanwhile, I have noticed that I ranked number 1 on Google for the term: The Secret Download out of 85,000,000 pages.
Only a few days ago, I read on FaceBook that someone questioned Sean Rasmussen’s ability to rank #1 on Google for competitive terms. Yeah, I suppose #1 out of 85 Million pages worldwide isn’t that big a deal 
In 2009, I stood on stage about 8 times and ranked #1 on Google in front of live audiences, ranging from 100 – 300 people. I think I proved the fact somehow to them.
Download The Secret
Then I found the next page that ranked highly: Download The Secret. It competes with 83,000,000 pages and again, it grabbed #1 spot. So this explained why I was suddenly getting about 3,000 people per month downloading my book (due credit to Wallace Wattles who wrote the original version 100 years ago). The results change from day to day, as Google is known to do, but having checked for the past 2 days, the results have been the same for me.
So here are all these people looking to Download The Secret. When they type it into Google (or The Secret Download), my webpage comes up in Google above thesecret.tv. Of course, I don’t outrank the original site for their flagship searchterm: The Secret, which by the way competes with 264,000,000 webpages for #1 spot 
So, that explains the sudden influx of visitors.
The Secret Law Of Attraction Video
When I launched the book officially, this was the video associated with it. It has had 6,900 views on YouTube so far. Overall, it has been a lot of fun. I love this game of Internet Marketing and we get to help a lot of people in the process whilst having a bucketload of fun. That sure is no Secret (pardon the pun).
Please jump through to YouTube and comment or vote for this video.
So much for ranking highly on Google. At the end of the day, it’s the quality of your articles that matter and if people enjoy what you write about. It also helps if they realise if you are honest, are a good person, have ethics, integrity etc. All that matters. The rest… well, the internet surfers can be the judge of that.
Now my aim is to get a number 1 ranking on Google for my Internet Marketing Forum, then I will feel a lot Better.

Hi Sean
Thanks for the download of the “Secret MP3″ I have already started to listen
to it and it is good to listen to such a positive book that feed your brain with
encouraging words.

Thanks for sharing to books and mp3! ^_^
I watched the movie and felt really inspired. You become what you think of most and what you think of most is what you become. I am now failing to download the book and audio, can you not send it to my e-mail address please? Really important!
I have watched The Secret and I am confident that everything in it is true. I can’t wait to apply the law of attraction now using my thoughts!
i would like to have a copy of the secret ….

dear sean,
thank you for the free download of your book. i just got it and will begin reading it. i have read The Secret by rhonda, other self help and spirituality books, most of which are by Dr.wayne dyer.
i have a dream and i want it badly to come to pass. i trust your book will surely give me the positive reinforcement to go the right direction that i need at the moment. thank you once again, God bless,
jean
Thanks, Jean
Bless you too. Enjoy the download.
Thanks Sean. I have been reading a lot recently and The Secret Of Attraction is a theme that a number of writers and presenters have in common. The universal intelligence is in agreement that it works and it is interesting that so many influential people are promoting it in their own ways all at the same time.
That’s very clever optimisation – I am sure it was no mistake that you did that, whether it was a conscious decision or not. My copy is still downloading, I am looking forward to listening to it.

I am not sure Sean still needs to make a conscious decision to optimize his websites, for him it is second nature by now, not just a mere habit

Those aren’t stats to sneeze at. It’s any internet marketer’s dream to achieve those results. Great work Sean. “This game of internet marketing”. Love the language.

Well I gotta say you definitely know your stuff when it comes to ranking. I was at one of those sessions where you set out to show it can be done. It was impressed.
From memory you ranked 1,2,3,5, and 6 within a couple of hours and against edu and gov sites. No mean feat.
Learning from you the majority of my blog posts go to page 1 pretty quick.
You are a gem.
Thanks for the download

Hi Sean,
I’ve also seen you rank a site No. 1 on Google in an amazingly short space of time. It seems the ‘Secret’ really does work because you inadvertently chose the right word. Very cool!
hi Sean and thank you for the book. It is really really inspiring. I especially like the no competition mind set up and unlimited resources out there.
Another great book easily available online, at no cost to us.
Thanks Sean – these are truly unlimited resources.

I have seen how quick you can jump up the ranks on google and its mind blowing. Great inspirational Video, I have seen it before, so its great to see it again. I gave it all of the stars on YouTube.
Actually the video has given me an idea to create my own inspiration video.
Thanks for being a great internet Marketer with so much knowledge and resources.
Cheers

G’day Sean,
Thankyou for this magnificent gift. As I mentioned on the MP3 download blog, I use both the narration and the Ebook simultaneously sometimes. Because I am an audio person through my years in music, the MP3 s get more use than the book. It’s cool to do the both occasionally.
Thanks again
Cheers
