You need to start with a new idea or idea that adds value to achieve more than mediocre SEO success. If 500 guys try to SEO the same content, in the same context, it's going to be a fail.

Ask not what Google can do for you -- ask what you can do for Google -- same idea.

New value is best, added value is good ... ...the rest is page 30. Original thought (or concept) is best. A non solicited or not a manufactured backlink is worth 1000 backlinks made in some webmaster conspiracy if you want to be more than a flash in the pan.
