While my two-three years old website is in the nowhere of google for no reason (never bothered myself to get it ranked until now) with the main exact keyword and my competitors not, I can say almost all of them copied my shit (copy-pasted my terms which I wrote by myself, same site options, etc).
Site #2 page 1:
Domain completely different to the niche. Ex: Keyword "white cars" domain "myjungle.com"
30 low quality backlinks.
150 characters title.
Stupid H1. No h2, h3.
Broken sentences.
When I saw this... got really frustrated.
Code: <meta name="description" content="Your description">
<meta name="keywords" content="Your,Keywords">
<meta name="author" content="ResponsiveWebInc">
This just an example to what's happening to me when it comes to SEO. Left seo years ago and now I'm back and this looks like lady gaga.
Forgot to say he still has some unedited lorem ipsum text in homepage.

Exact name domain isn't working that well as it used to be anymore, this is old news. And over optimized SEO can hurt ranking (usage of exact keyword repeatedly) is recent. No h2 and h3 isn't a big deal.
When you say low quality backlinks, please define that. Cause I'm willing to bet tho that most is all about backlinks.

You cant over optimize with an EMD or it will hurt you.

All of them have the exact keywords repeatedly, I'm too I guess I gotta fix that and make the density under 1% still makes no sense for me honestly.
When it comes to the low quality backlinks it's because of the anchor term which is the url and sorry he has 4 backlinks, not 30 which come from two forums.I don't think it's all about backlinks Randize, otherwise thousands of sites wouldn't be ranked.

I'm speaking from experience. You need to understand more about link juice (example, if you have a great DA, your page will become easier to rank, like if you type medical terms, Webmd can come up easily, but that DOESN'T MEAN you can't outrank with better backlinks.)
Anchor term isn't all about the term you use, url works really well these days.
So becareful when you define what's a good or bad backlinks.

Alright alright, thanks for your opinion. Believe me A will agree with you and B won't, when it's about seo we can never talk in a afirmative way, as you can see in my example if it wasn't ranked you'd say that'd be impossible to rank.
I'm really reading lots of comments/replies around to understand what's going on nowadays when it comes to SEO, I believe the best source to learn is from the experience (yours or others).

To each their own, as long as I can make money I won't care if people are disagreeing. @@
Also it's possible to hide your backlinks from site explorer such as href and majestic, so you can't really spy on good competitors. That said, yes we can never assure what's really working, BUT evidently as on page SEO is weighing less and less in Google serp, what are left with what we can do?
You might want to read night_wolf's guide here, I attest to his methodology.

I may use it in the future. Thank you!
By the way, how many backlinks do you think are enough to get a site in top 3 from your experience?
