For me blackhat has always been more than just doing mass links or PBN's.

To me, blackhat is about testing the boundrys of everything that we do as SEO's. Taking the webmaster guidelines and pushing those to the limits. Testing.

Some of the best SEO's in the world come from blackhat backgrounds because they are testers, and testers win.

Is Google going to eliminate organic? I doubt it, consumers will move to other platforms if they do that, however that organic number on listing will get a little less traffic for buyer terms.

It's ok though, because they seem to leaving the information terms alone and if you can just use those to get people to your site then retargeting takes care of the rest.
 
All these noobs complaining BH is dead = noobs. Simple as that. Errrrmahgerrrd I bought 3 fiverr pbn gigs and my weightloss wordpress.com site isn't making money a herp a derrrrrrp. Learn some genuine skills noobs, BHSEO only boosts visibility, if you are noobing it up in a retarded niche = no monies even with 10000000 pbn links for 5 dorrah
 
People can say whatever the fuck they want. We all know seo is extremely difficult now a days and soon it will not even be worth the time that goes into it.

Adapt or die? Yeah no problem you must be living with your parents still to have that much time on your hands.

good old days, wish i was with my parents today, but am married, and i have a kid XD, but you got it right, its all depends on how much power you put into your project,

I learnt SEO when I was in my 20s and working a full time job living on my own purely by choice, I worked out how to make money and when I was sure of it I dumped 40% of my pay cheque one month ( massively cutting into the amount I required to live ) and made a buttload of profit in month 2. SEO takes skill, time & then investment in order to actually make a living from it. Sure, all the noobs here expecting to throw up a shitty blog and click a few buttons for profit are dead. I've made literally tens of thousands from pure BHSEO from 2007 to now though. So no, it's not dead. It's just harder, as if life as the years go on. Adapt or die, as is life.

That's what i meant, but people also forget this factor "You need to spent to make it Big" Simply Money brings more money if you have the right thinking and the right skills, its just adapting as was said before that, its not become harder nor impossible in anyway, they want us to think so!

I remember this same conversation about how seo was "gonna be just a luxury" and "now I'm recommending optimised adword packages to my clients"on forums like these what? five years ago maybe longer, all it proves is those were the same noddies back then, here now. I came for one decent answer got? all but a noddy telling me how brilliant he was cause hes made the VAT threshold from pbns and I should pay him for the answer - lol what the? you come to a black hat forum for what - waste time?, the bottom feeding, grinding seo type - you have to laugh when the standard to measure yourself by is the VAT threshold. @MisterF

Wow do I have a stalker ? I'd have replied earlier but I'd gone for a swim.

You keep contributing here and enjoy yourself, enjoy the 6 weeks break before you're away back to school in September.

Well personally my first SEO success was with SENuke back in the day which I found on this forum, I still come here because the experts among us have their finger on the pulse and it's a great way to ensure you are up to date with any new variations on decent strategies.

You asked for a decent answer, the decent answer is "no". I'm guessing you are only interested in people who agree with you though, so please do believe those that say it is dead.

Just leaves more money for those with the skills to do it right ;)

the decent answer was in respect to pbn sandbox that would of saved me my own testing. You can see it here:

@MisterF decided to make a tit of himself, that or it's that time of the month and indeed instilled my confidence that forums are full of poor noddies getting spoon fed what the supposed experts are telling them, not realising the good parts are all left out, reasonable enough, but I hardly think the question I asked on that thread was advanced just saved me a little time on about 10 websites.
 
And to add to that, I don't think there's ever been a better time to be in seo myself, sure competitions gone way up in the last 15 years, from a quality perspective, and tactics, but most reasonable niches can still be achievedwith good hardwork and sensible strategy.

Gotta admire people like this.

Picture walking into a wine bar in City of London, where all the investment bankers drink, all make money and share info with each other.
Then suddenly Billy turns up that nobody knows, sits at the same table and starts asking for all the good information and tips....

At least you didn't start off with- I need to make $50k by midnight or another favourite; my gannys parrot was in a car crash with no medical insurance.....

All you've done with your attitude in the other thread, is prove you ain't that going to ever be in a wine bar in London, picking up any tabs. That's for sure, because if a simple question like I asked is your top drawer stuff and shrouded in secrecy, just wow.
 
Check this out. We created a new site, was organically ranking, not masses of traffic but good quality traffic and generating leads. The domain was a year old, so its taken some time to rank. Anyway, we decided to do some AdWords, check out the analytics below. As soon as this site was exposed to AdWords, the organic rankings dropped. Clear as ever.

So yes, I reckon the days are numbered for SEO with Google as we know it now, until the dominance of Google changes. Until then, its using other methods, Google isn't everything!


Correlation doesn't equal causation. These are two completely separate departments within Google, who do not communicate on this level. Your paid campaigns would have no bearing on your SEO campaign and vice versa. This is pure coincidence, as there was some kind of update/devalue/link decay right when you started your paid campaigns.

I've got an honest question, you don't have to answer it to me but answer it to yourself. Have you ever seen a website to even say 5k$ usd traffic value on semrush? I cannot believe you have when you show me a month of data and tell me google isn't everything however conclusive it looks. My business would be crippled without google organic, I'd be finished.

Why are you randomly talking about other threads and chasing a member around posting everywhere they've posted? Let it go, no one cares
