I will be doing some sort of a case study, based on the service below:

http://www.blackhatworld.com/blackha...-articles.html

The service uses short, hand written articles to post on High PR blogs. I have used this service once and although it has its shortcomings, I wanted to give it another shot. However, I am taking it up a few notches and have communicated with the Provider before commencing. I will report on the progress on this thread for those who are interested.

For this campaign, Santosh will be posting on 375+ High PR blogs ranging from PR1 to PR5. They have a huge network of sites totalling around 500. Santosh has been very accommodating and professional to deal with. I had some special requests and he was very patient with me. Based on our dealing, I feel comfortable recommending their services to anyone.

I am only using one URL but in order to make it look more natural, I am using 8 keywords in total. Each blog post will contain 2 links and these 8 keywords will be used randomly in each post. Therefore KW1/ KW4 may appear in one post, KW2/K4 may appear in another post, KW1/KW2 may appear in another post etc...I hope you get the idea. The reason for this is to make it look less spammy and more natural.

Here are the keyword details with regards to Global Exact Searches and current rankings:

KW1 -250k - 9
KW2 -110k - 3
KW3 -50k - 8
KW4 -40k -5
KW5 -15k -5
KW6 -22k -7
KW7 -18k -8
KW8 -12k -6

The posting will commence on 1st January and will be dripped for 20 days. The service originally uses a unique written article for each blog post. However, due to the high amount of blog posts, it will be very expensive for me to use 375+ unique articles. Therefore, the blog posts will be using 20 unique articles spun to 375 different versions. I had asked that the articles all exceed 200 words so that it can maintain a link per 100 word ratio.

It is obvious that I am expecting good results from this. I will be receiving about 20 blog posts each day starting from 1st of January. Each keyword will appear in about 100 sites. Santosh always overdelivers so I am sure the total blogs will reach 400 in total easily.

The articles and being written and spun as we speak. Lets witness the rise together!

Updates:

Got my first 20 sites. Will update each 3 days to track SERP movements.

KW1 -250k - 9 > 10
KW2 -110k - 3 > 3
KW3 -50k - 8 > 5
KW4 -40k -5 > 4
KW5 -15k -5 > 5
KW6 -22k -7 > 9
KW7 -18k -8 > 10
KW8 -12k -6 > 6

Interesting.. Subbed!

Will keep this thread updated tomorrow when I get the reports. So far so good.

Updates for today:

KW1 -250k - 9 > 10 > 10
KW2 -110k - 3 > 3 > 3
KW3 -50k - 8 > 5 > 6
KW4 -40k -5 > 4 > 4
KW5 -15k -5 > 5 > 5
KW6 -22k -7 > 9 > 4
KW7 -18k -8 > 10 > 11
KW8 -12k -6 > 6 > 6

I am indexing all the reports so far using Lindexed. Its still too early to see any SERPs since I have only gotten 2 x 20 Blog Posts. The delay is due to the holidays on the provider's side.

Sorry for not updating on time. Been busy partying....

The provider has given me 120 posts so far. Some of them were duplicate domains so we are working things out to make sure that this project receives posts from 400 unique domains, as we originally agreed.

Santoshg46 has been excellent to deal with so far and I recommend their services to those looking for High PR Blog Posts.

Many of the posts are getting indexed now and I am already seeing SERP movements. This is earlier than I expected to be honest.

The movement is mainly from the MAIN keyword with 250K exact searches and is extremely competitive. I have moved from 10 to 8. Will keep on updating.

Any updates in the last 1 week?

The keywords are dancing now. I have received over 150 posts so far. Only a handful of them are PR4. Most of them are PR 1 to 3.

I will be updating once I get the rankings stabilized. Its still a damn good service imo.

Received another 40 blog posts from the OP. Rankings are moving in the right direction...

More to come!

To those following this thread, I have not abandoned it. There were some delays on both my end and the provider, due to holidays on both our ends.

Therefore, the blog posts have been dripped longer than expected. The rankings are still moving in the right direction but I would like to update on the thread once it is more stable.

For those looking for High PR blog posts which is both good and affordable, I recommend this.

Latest Updates!

KW1 -250k - 9 > 7
KW2 -110k - 3 > 2
KW3 -50k - 8 > 6
KW4 -40k -5 > 4
KW5 -15k -5 > 5
KW6 -22k -7 > 3
KW7 -18k -8 > 8
KW8 -12k -6 > 5

This is a pretty impressive move, considering my competitive niche. Am considering to use the Santosh's service on another site of mine with a penalty.

Wow! Rarely do we see a whole thread dedicated to reviewing a service! Thanks for the effort
Cheers!

Well, its my first but they are by no means rare. They are all around!

Received another set of 20 blog posts today. Total of 205 unique domains right now. Rankings are still pretty much the same but once the link juice gets into effect, I'm sure it will give it a big boost.

Thanks, Santosh.

The rankings are more or less the same since I have not received any reports from the provider for the past 10 days. I think they are having some issues with too many orders.

I just received a report today for another 20 posts so we are now at 225 unique domains.

I did some indexing checking and am pleased to announced that the blog posts have a 90% indexing rate, which is pretty awesome.

I just hope that there will be no more delays and the provider can complete this project soonest. At this rate, we will need another 8-9 days of continuous posting to complete the project.
