Hello,
So I have recently been put in charge of SEO for our company and I am learning alot of great things by reading these boards.

I have a question, that I searched for to no avail.

I know about AdSense and AdWords, but does Google allow you to buy certain keywords.

ex. Could I buy the word "sample" and everytime someone typed in "sample" in Google, my listing shows up first?

Thanks,
Brian

AdWords allows you to buy a paid listing on Google, which can make you rank tops in those specific areas.

Since you say you know about AdWords, I'm guessing that you're wondering if there's a way to buy a top position in the unpaid editorial results. The answer to that is no.

Thank you for your response!

That is what SEO is for... but beware anyone who claims they can get you to a number one spot on organic results.
