With Google changing everything and its exclusivity on the pagerank algorythm running out, do you think this kind of linking service will maintain success?

I just checked the top 10 results of my biggest competitors and the results are crazy. One guy had less than 150 backlinks inks, a few had around 5000 and one had as many as 35000 of which most were dups. I checked to see what was backlinking to the backlinks and it really wasn't a whole lot. I expected to see tons.

I'm not an expert which is why I'm here trying to get ahead, but there doesn't seem to be any consistency in the game that I can put my finger on. OK maybe I'm not factoring AGE into the equation which may play a bigger role than I can see by checking out backlinks. Also, peculiar, a competitor who was nowhere a couple of months ago, showing just one backlink, has just nudged past me on a keyword combo which isn't even fully optimised in his site. Maybe I've slipped back, but I have lots of links and some of the bigger ones are themselves showing up right under me, quoting my site. OK that's local-stuff that triggers google maps and stuff. The reason I'm here is to get national searches turning me up but it's like pissing in the wind at the moment. Embarrassing in fact.

Quite apart from the obviously money and business interests here. A non sales viewpoint please would be appreciated. I'll sign up anyway to the basic package today or tomorrow probably.

Hey

Is there anyway to categorise the linkpushes? For example, all the linkpushes you did during 1st month of subscription are separate from 2nd month? At the moment its just a wall of all the submits, hard to organise, see how many submits are left in the month etc.

Maybe something to implement in the future?

Great idea, Sycro, you just gave Kevin more work to do!

He put that on his list.

Thanks for the input.

Minister,
The update appears to target content farms like answerbag, eHow etc which have huge amounts of content with very little linking. There is always flux when Google changes things up and then in a few weeks the revert some of their changes.
One thing I know is that quality links, with a structure to back them up will always be required to get a site ranking

There are so many factors that are in the algorithm, as we all know, that Google uses and I believe that they are fluid on a regular basis, not just when they announce a change.

Certainly there is a purpose to announce a change and I don't believe it is to stop web masters from "gaming" the system so much as to bring get some publicity... remember they are a public company.

I would be hard pressed to believe that Google would discount an entire site that they have considered an authority... that just makes no sense and would indicate that they had no clue as to what they were doing to begin with.

Age has something to do with the process for sure, as does content, the quality of the backlinks, the promotion of the backlinks and remember, Google does not show all the backlinks of any particular site.

I have a site in a very competitive niche and on page 1 that only shows 17 backlinks in Google yet I know there are several hundred and they are indexed as well but when you reverse engineer, you don't see all those links.

I have also backlinked those backlinks of course and everyone should do that for their backlinks whether you use a service to do it or do it manually.

One week update - I have seen some improvement on a few keywords that I can only attribute to the pushes as I haven't done any linkbuilding or changes on that site. One kw went from 12 to 9 and the traffic has increased quite a bit from that. This makes me happy!

However the most important site I am pushing is having issues. I have been making some changes to the site i.e. added new material, but two kw's went from around #24 to dropped completely out of existence. No google ranking at all, although other kw's on the site are still ranked so I don't think it's sandboxed. I'm just praying those keywords are having one heck of a dance with the big G at the moment and will come back stronger. To see the "0" in the ranks though, when at one point it was as high as 14, is a little unsettling to say the least!

From what I can see this is one of the best linking strategies you can have for a site. I love the randomness and adding linklicious is great, after one week I am starting to see properties being indexed.

I am wondering if the new google algo that devalues "content farms" will have an effect on the power of the links in the spun articles though. Time will tell I guess.

Oh and the customer service is great - thanks bunches!

 

[Spectrobelle]

Ok so immediately after posting this I checked my rankings again, and those 2 kw's that were nowhere to be found have come back at #15 and #16! Woo! They were gone for about 3 days, so it really was ye 'ol dance.

Linkpushing is da bomb. :china:

hi BassTrackerBoats
i'm still having those deleted posts that are re-queued
but that don't get requeued,
can you take a look
thanks

Also i have a suggestion,
i think that if the web2.0 owners in their stats find a lot of visits coming from our linkpushing.net control panels will probably start to remove posts at left and right

Maybe you should use an anonymizer to remove the referrer when we click on the "View" link.

The anonymizer was actually put in place yesterday morning by Kevin.

I'll take a look at your acct and let you know the status... seems you are stuck in no where's man.

 

[xxxxxxxxJJxxxxxxxxx]

BassTrackerBoats -

I'm sorry - I've PM'd twice with no response, can you take a look. Thanks!

 

[derpywizard]

Going to order a linkpush today, I've been too curious so I might as well try it. I'm currently in #21 for my target keyword, I'll report how it goes in a week or two!

Thanks for the quote the other day, BTB.

 

[BassTrackerBoats]

BassTrackerBoats -

I'm sorry - I've PM'd twice with no response, can you take a look. Thanks!

Sorry, I saw both of your PMs but it was at a late hour for me and I generally respond to them in the AM. Since I had opened them, I just figured they were handled.

I'm generally much more responsive than that.

PM responded to... if the response is unclear, hit me up via PM or email - [email protected] or skype - linkpushing.

Again, I apologize for the poor response to your questions.

 

[MRomeo99]

A quick question, I can't seem to find a consistent answer.

Do I or don't I have to submit a spun article for my push?

I'm ready to go with the Mega package most likely, just waiting to hear on this.

Thanks,

You do not have to submit a spun article... in fact you do not have to submit an article at all.

You can enter your keywords and our service will grab an article from one of the article directories and spin it for you.

Thanks!

Congrats on the anniversary Greg.

Quick question, if I were to do a link push to one of my previous link pushes, would you rather point it to livejournal.com (PR8) or easyjournal.com (PR5)? All else being equal.

 

[BassTrackerBoats]

Thanks, Fabio, I appreciate that.

If you are only going to target one, I would point to the livejournal one but I would also make sure that you are targeting a tier one property.

Alternatively, you can edit your bio to target more than one of the tier one properties in your previous pushes and spread the love all around.

<a href="http://fabiolivejournalsite.com">|<a href="http://fabioeasyjournalsite.com"> Fabio Keyword</a>

I actually do that quite often when I am working on a site.

[air360]

Fabio - your avatar and your name make me laugh (in a good fun way)....i can only image what you may look like in person. lol

 

[BassTrackerBoats]

Today, we are replacing some of the servers that have not been processing properly and that should mkae things smoother as well as clean up some bug issues.

Things might process a little slow over the next few hours due to the changes.

I messed up the syntax when I show you this:

<a href="http://fabiolivejournalsite.com">|<a href="http://fabioeasyjournalsite.com">

It should be:

{<a href="http://fabiolivejournalsite.com">|<a href="http://fabioeasyjournalsite.com">}Fabio Keyword</a>

If you put any pushes in with the wrong syntax, please let me know and I'll either edit them for you if they have not begun processing or replace them completely for youif they have.

Suggestion:

Once you are over with your monthly push quotas, it would be nice to be able to buy pushes on an individual basis.

Eg: I have 20 pushes a months, but if on a certain month I need 25, I'd like to be able to buy a once of bundle of 5x extra pushes at the pro-rata rate I am currently paying via my subscription.

What do you think?

You guys would make more money, and a client like myself would appreciate the on demand flexibility

That's a cool suggestion and I'll see if the Super Coder, Kevin, can implement that.

It would only be right to be able to offer the pro-rata rate.

Until K can figure out how to do that, you can always hit me up (skype - linkpushing | gmail - [email protected]) and I would be happy to generate a coupon that would reflect the pro-rata rate for you.
