Link Building
- MS - Blasted to a set of Press Release sites. Created some tier 1/2/3 - a bunch of them. The one thing i dislike about MS is when they export links. Its all wrong.. they pull the wrong URLS and it takes me forever to go through them to find the good links. So i created a new PERSONAL profile and grabbed all the services that are in there. I'm going to test them one by one an dmake sure they are pulling the links when they should be. I checked the coding for several of these properties and I can tell you that there can be commands entered to ensure that it pulls the correct stuff. I just want to make a personal list of the Web 2.0 properties.
- Pick up a new software, I'm not going to disclose the name of it yet, but basically its just another web 2.0 builder. So far, I am pretty impressed with this software and its in beta right now. Monthly service, but pretty cool on how it works. It's very similar to SA, but uses the mainstream web 2.0 properties. This software looks like a keeper. I think the combination of MS and this software will allow me to build all the links I want quickly. This also has the ability to repost to the same accounts. Only limited to Web 2.0 properties though, but thats fine by me as I have MS for the other stuff.
- BE - These links i put through backlinker as well as created RSS feed out of it.. submitted it through RSS submit and put it through linklicious. There is about 60 links/accounts there and there is now about 20-25 that are indexed (compared to 10 the last time i checked). I will work hard to get all those 60 links indexed. I'll do a scheduled check on all my accounts to make sure none of them are banned.
Look at those index rates... They're looking pretty good especially from the last update. Somethings wrong with my scrapebox stat... will fix that later. Its a bug in LD. All these links were put into BE... and this is what came out of it.
After BL ...BE... I now have 44/63 of the BE indexed. This increased today!
Variations in stats are because i either delete sites that i found were dead or accidently deleted them... lol The "TOTAL" stat is an estimate of how many are pointing to the money site. Last time i checked im pretty sure its the Tier 1/ Article Tier 1/Videos... Actually that does't make much sense.. lol oh well i'll figure out what that number is when I go back in and fix my SB list.

Very nice! I read from the beginning... Excited!
Thanks

Link Building
- Guess whose on the first page? Yeap.. I am I am now sitting at rank 10 for my MAIN KEYWORD
-
.
- Hmm... so what have I done in the last week.. Been building up my tiers quite a bit... all those links are run through my Backlink Energizer network... and my usual RSS feed submissions.
- MS - Created some Press Releases...sent htem through BE
- I haven't really built much more links than that. BL has been running and backlinking to the BE network...I'll have to check where the indexing rate is for that..
- I haven't updated my link dashboard either..
- YSE: 102
- I'm thinking of doing a blast of AMR again to the money site... and then im going to grab many of the deeplinks and start deeplinking using the net software. It'll build tiers beyond tiers of web 2.0 properties... all scheduled out nicely
Monetization
- So... there is where the fun begins. I know my way around photoshop.. not a crazy designer or anything, but I can recreate sales pages you see on CB... anywho - I jumped onto CB.. went into the internet marketing (these are usually the websites that are BEST created). I looked around each landing page and I found one I really liked... I "borrowed" the background and border.. lol Deleted all the other junk I don't need so its a very simple squeen page... Then I jumped onto photoshop and created those nice "HEADLINES" .... etc etc.
- Changed up my optin and placed it nicely under the headline. Underneath the optin form, I have a few bullet points of what they'll "find" when they get the ebook. BTW this ebook was created half assed. I think i just took many ezine articles (kept the source) and just put it in a nice ebook. I used some web application to create a nice looking one, but i don't remember what website that is. But i'll get a new ebook out real soon on that niche... short simple... but perfect
- Before changing this layout.. my seriously garbage... I am now getting about 1-4 optins a day... my traffic went down.. maybe its because the weekend is when its most "busy" - but we'll see what happens this weekened. My list is around 25 people now I think and i only created one email followup..which sends them to the URL of the ebook.
- I am with getresponse..using basic free version - My limit is 100 subscribers.. so i only image i'll hit this REAL soon. Another thing I noticed is that most of my OPTINS are surprisingly from NON NORTH AMERICA (which is odd cause i'd thought my niche was very catered to north american people). Funny part is..its from places like china to russia to UK...
- I'm getting a profession ebook made on this nicihe... which my intent is to get a nice sale pages and send an email blast out to those 100 subscribers (as soon as i reach it) and hope for a sale! I'll upgrade my account and get more subscribers..
- Im still making several adjustments to the landing page.. i need to add a exit popup and i thinking of adding more information to the squeeze page to make it more convincing.
Congratulations, I've been following this thread for over a month and now I guess I need to take some action myself
As for AMR blasts to money site I suggest you read this
http://www.blackhatworld.com/blackhat-seo/black-hat-seo-tools/291669-did-anybody-lost-rank-after-arm-blasts.html
Maybe it will not hurt you but who knows.
Maybe get a PAD submitter in the downloads section, create an .exe puzzle (there are free tools for that) and submit to software sites. This is something I wanted to do but never got to that yet.
Cheers.

Trade Offer
- I need to expand my network, but can't do so without unique articles. I do not want to pay for them, so i'm going this route. I know many people would love to use a service like this, but can't afford it - so I'm going to offer it here - win win situation.

- Limited Offer: I am only going extend this offer until I have sufficient enough articles to blast across my link network.

Link Building
- I haven't done any Link building since the other day.. Been really busy. The only thing that happened was a couple more tier 2/3 web 2.0 properties were built. My goal is to collect as many articles as I can from the above service i'm offering and start blasting these unique articles out.
- Still at rank 10
- One thing about changing your squeeze pages... make sure that you check it in IE as well as FF/Chrome.. I found out this morning that the IE squeeze page was disfigured.. this could have thrown off alot of my traffic.

Recap Link Strategy
Hope this helps answer alot of questions i've been getting lately. Let me know if you have any other questions.
- So, I worked pretty hard today and started to collect all my links
- In total, I have about 45~ Tier 1 links that are pointing to my money site. Of which I have about 750 Tier 2/3 Web 2.0 properties. All of these links have been put through Pinging/BE and so far only the T1 has an RSS created and submitted through RSS Submit.
- The Tier 1 sites are from about 15 web 2.0 accounts which have reposted unique content (about 10 unique articles) across those 45 links/posts. This means that there is about 3 posts per account and each one is linking back to the money site. These articles are relevant to the niche (Adult) - but not necessarily THE niche.
- Created a new batch of press release sites and 5 accounts of around 150 bookmarking websites. Surprisingly MS gave me a good 95% creation rate on those bookmarks. Tomorrow i'll run all my links through these bookmarking websites - creating about 5 - 10 different variations of bookmarks. I'll then schedule all these to bookmark random links probably bi daily.
- BL - is backlinking my T1 sites (1/3 of them) There is only 15 of them in this group. Took some advice from someone to minimize the number of links i have per group so that theres more backlinks / T1 link.
- AMR - I've decided to hold back on pushing another blast to my money site with AMR right now just with the talk of the new "panda update" and the effects of AMR right now - so i'm going to be pushing this across a group of T2 links and see how they react
- Traffic is falling - getting anywhere from 25 - 50 uniques a day. They really don't like my optin page as Im not getting any optins. Im going to be split testing some more types like popups and what not. Haven't decided what yet, but will figure it out as I sit down and try it.
Recap Link Strategy
- So, I've been talking to a couple people outside this thread, and I found out that alot of people aren't too clear about what im actually doing.. so I wanted to quickly recap exactly what my linking strategy is...
- Tier 1 - First, create a Tier 1 of web 2.0 websites (such as hubpages, squiddoo, wordpress, quizilla, etc) or mainstream article websites (goarticles, EZA, etc) all of which are pointing straight to the money site. I usually try to build around 10 of these to start off what I want to call a "link blast".
- Tier 2/3 - From there, I'll create 2 tier levels pointing to thier upper respective levels using more web 2.0 properties. I will aim anywhere from 10 per T1 link for T2 and so on. This comes to about an additional 100 - 500 web 2.0 properties (T2 + T3). These links DO NOT point to my money site.
- Supporting Links (Tier 4) - Guestbook/Other Links (Backlinker), Blog Comments (SB), Forum Profiles (Software such as sick submitter, MS has this capability if you know how to program it in, VSEO) - These links are then Scattered across T1/T2/T3. I will blast links beyond links across the entire network of web 2.0 properties in which many of them are blasting away overnight. AMR - I will use article directories on my T1/2/3 - I load up spun garbage.. as there really isnt any other way to do it wiht AMR since theres so many article directories. I usually get 2000 successful account creations and about 1200~ article submissions.
- RANDOM (keyword) High Quality Links/Diversity Links - This is where you bring in the Press Release sites/Video websites/high PR forum posts/high PR blog comments/edu links etc. Most of these links are done by RANDOM as well as manually. I'd say about 80 - 90% of the links i build here are pointed to my money site. The last bit is usually pushed on the T1 websites.
- Indexing - Upon building these links - I will grab all of them as they are being created and put them through my Backlinker Energizer network to get them INDEXED. I will also put them through linklicious.me, I will create an RSS feed of the links breaking them out in groups of 20. The way I do this is I import all the links into SB and export them back out in groups of 20 using thier export feature. I will then upload these to links2rss.com or similar sites like that. I will take these RSS feeds and run them all through RSS Submit which submits them to 97~ aggregators.
- Check Rankings/Repeat - This entire setup usually takes me about a week to do, and so far, i've probably have done this 4 - 5 times on my niche. I am stuck at 10 and I can't seem to pass it. Although YSE only says I have 103 links.. sooo im thinking in time my links will show up and ranks will go up. But i'm still going to continue to build links. I typically overlap my INDEXING and SUPPORTING LINKS as I build more T1 websites again.
- I can't explain it any similar than this.. Im essentially building a structure... followed by supporting links.....which get filtered through INDEXING. Spammy like links are sent to my Tier 1/2/3 properties. High quality links are all sent to my money site.
Hope this helps answer alot of questions i've been getting lately. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Wow, I just read all 4 pages and it seems like you've really learned a lot from beginning to end. As a newbie bh SEO, i've tried to absorb as much information as I can. You seem ilke such a guru so I might as well ask: Do you have any advice for someone trying to dominate the entire page of 1 keyword (5 stars on Traffic Travis which means Easy)? I'd like to create your Tier 1/2 Web 2.0 structure and blast with SB, of course adding in RSS feed/bookmarking too. What's the best way to go about creating the Tier 1/2 structure?
Thanks, and hope you reach #1
