Plenty of resources are to be deployed to do such every activity within a frame period of time. Whether it counts from reverse engineering to Keyword analysis to backlink building to user presentation, the process should be accomplished in time and it has to be very constant.
 
This is interesting, which tools could you recommend to a newbie for analyzing? (am in a competitive Niche)

Hi,

You can use Ahrefs or Semrush for that.

Thanks!
 
Well this is some solid advice, thanks for sharing.

Wait, I thought all forum links were No-Follow/Worthless? Can someone clarify how this was counted to make the author rank?
 
Simple in hindsight but ingenuous in nature.

PS - A few years ago I ranked for a brand of green coffee #1 in SERPs for 2 years with only 1 backlink on iReport.com which was a CNN side site and earned 14k from affiliates. Once iReport.com closed down my site vanished from sight completely.;)
 
why use quote? you can directly edit your own reply and add link.

to make the link "invisible"?

Because you quote a very long post that makes your link to have lots of content surrounding it, and easy to mimic as a contextual link.

If you want to do extra work and write long replies yourself to add your link in your own reply, go for it:)
 
Hmm, How can i find niche relevant forums? Are there any footprints to look for?

Hello Guys,

I'll keep this short and to the point.

So, last year I had an affiliate site in Weight Loss Niche.

I had a competitor who was ranking #1, before getting into this niche I did a comprehensive analysis of my competitors back links profile and thought to myself It won't be hard to outrank him. But I was wrong!

No matter what I did I was not able to outrank this guy. My site was better than him in every aspect, content, back links etc.

So, then I decided to do some reverse engineering and started trying to basically get links from all the sources / domains he has links from.

Here things get very interesting and sneaky.

Here Is What He Was Doing:-

He was using a very sneaky method to get links from extremely powerful, HIGH DA/DR Niche Relevant Forums.

He was using quote edit functions of those forums to get back links.

Basically, he would post in a old thread in the forum which already has enough DA/DR and bring it back to life. He would Multi Quote 2-3 long comments and reply very decently to them.

After waiting for few days when the thread rolled down into 4th or 5th page of the forum, he would go back and edit the post and add his link within a quote. He would blend the hyperlink colour as the other text in post. All the forums he was using had limit of many days to edit the posts.

Example OF Putting Link In quote below:-



It's just an example, obviously he was quoting very long posts and blending aka hiding links nicely!

So, finally after preparing list of majority of his links, I got to the work.

I exactly started doing what he was doing, I would join forums, post replies, go back and edit posts to add my links. I couldn't replicate all his links because some forums caught onto what I was up to and deleted my posts and banned me. But I was able to replicate majority of his link profile.

Meanwhile, I was adding more content to my site and not doing any other links except from those forum links.

So finally, after few weeks of replicating my competitors back links, I OUTRANKED him and moved to #1, and I stayed there for almost 4 months and made about $36k in affiliate commissions.

It was a nasty niche, I was constantly getting NEG SEO from my competitors and finally they succeeded, after staying 4 months on #1, one day my site suddenly tanked hard and dropped to like 80-90 in serp.

This is my experience of making $36K by just doing some basic analysis of my competitor and reverse engineering.

Always keep a close eye on your competitor, you might find the reason why he is ranking and you're not.

Keep your friends close and your enemies closer

Regards,

Bluematter
