[CASE STUDY] - Deadly SEO - OP CAOS

[davids355]

Decided to run a case study on the effects of Operation CHAOS package from Deadly SEO:

http://www.blackhatworld.com/blackh...-results-41-link-types-100-refund-policy.html

I have submitted a campaign focusing on two keywords (both pointing at the same page on my website):

Keyword 1:
60,000 Local monthly exact searches
Competition: High
Current rank: #46

Keyword 2:
4400 Local exact monthly searches
Competition: High
Current rank: #14

Traffic Travis rank report:

Competition for both keywords courtesy of Market Samurai:

Keyword1:

Keyword2:

My campaign has already been started and both keywords have actually begun to dance around a bit, so I will update this thread with any changes over the next few days.

wow you guys get paid to include that huge ass Advertising picture? Most links are just blogcomments but then on different platforms, something different then the standard wordpress/blogengine comments. and some links on some article sites that are probably spammed cause you won't get many links on true authoritive wiki pages. I think this is a hugely overpriced sales hype thing, cause what was it $250 or something?

Sorry to say but I take these kind of "case studys" with a huge grain of salt

I guess that's the point of the case study. I am posting TT rank reports so I'm not bias at all. We'll see whether the keywords go up, down or nowhere!

Sub'ed too. That's how you see it. You can either mix a cheap combo of SB + xrumer & yep that's going to get you results, but soon get caught and thrown away with a fancy name - penalty.

It's like this. Suppose you subscribe to an xrumer service & you get 10,000 links from that package IT'S NO WORTH.

I'll explain why. The same xrumer list is spammed with millions of profiles each day not just by you but the same xrumer list is bought as a service & people start their own service with it. So, G sees the million new pages with ZERO value.

Now, coming to CHAOS. 70% of the sites in CHAOS are manual postings. That's bcoz they have tight security & ask questions like " who's the president of u.k " and have a specific time to answer it before registering. These types of sites can be solved ONLY MANUALLY. Then, these sites get less than 20 registrations a day which is of PURE VALUE & picked up easily by G. There's a lot more factors that needs to be explained & an SEO expert or someone who views SEO systematically and as a study will get the stuff inside tha game

Gotta Love the business Model of Paying someone $20 to do all the work and keep the rest $230 from $250 yourself

Well let me say, I highly doubt that these 700 links will be placed manually. Or I could better say, no freaking way that will happen. We're not from yesterday.

You ever browsed the website syndk8? They offer a tool for these php social networks, I bet that tool deals with the not so standard security questions or they just filter the ones that don't have that hassle. Yes it won't get spammed as hugely as Xrumer or Scrapebox but I beleive they do have a fairly large ammount of customers which will do a better job at spamming then the 1000's of scrapebox users (as scrapebox is fairly cheap so attracts more noobs who leverage it way less).

I just don't like the idea that out of nowhere there are 2 case studys with a HUGE advertising image for the service. Gives me a feeling that the service supplyer gave them the service for free if they would start a case study and add the image, and in the meanwhile sneak quality links into it from private blog networks or 301 directs to there sites/pages so it shows the best results you could ever hope for.

Maybe I'm a bit too suspicious, maybe not. It just doesnt feel natural.

The other thread is made by me! I'll make a few points that will speak for me.

1. The service provider DIDN'T ask me personally to make a case study thread
2. He had made a post in the Jr VIP section giving away packages in exchange of sig links
3. Since I did not want to change my sig, we negotiated that I'd start a case study thread
4. Service provider DIDN'T ask me to post the image. I did that myself so people would know what links was I getting
5. Even if these are "just other blog comments" from other platforms, diversity DOES matter. Having 100 links from different platforms is much better than having 10000 links from WP blogs.
6. This is not advertisement. This is a Case-fuckin-Study! This is about results. If we see positive results, good, that means the claims made by the seller are verified. If not, his sales might as well be ruined.

That's smart business, the reseller always adds value - or the initial provider would be selling direct to the client at the higher price

Dennis I know where your coming from, but if you look at my threads you'll see I do a lot of case studies and I am not bias in any way. If the service is no good I will say so.

If the service is good I will (definitely) order again and report in another one of my threads - thus giving more Credibility to my review(s).

 

[TheMatrix]

I know the other thread is yours and I know you would read it, no need to state my opinion in 2 similiar threads cause everyone will read both anyway.

Anyway, clearly the guy who offers this service is looking for reviews / case studys, so it's not 100% unbiased, cause he knows which order belongs to you so he could bias the results very easily by sneaking in high authority / high PR paid links to increase rankings, thus increase sales. You know I've been at internet marketing forums a lot and have seen TONS of fake testimony's and reviews in for sale threads (in general) with a good preparation it's pretty easy to fake that shit you know.

Again I'm not saying it is as it is, but I just find it suspicious, just my 2 cents.

Well, as I said in Point no. 3, the seller didn't ask for a THREAD but sig links. And he has no idea which order belongs to whom. I was given the same exact form to be filled as the customers get. The only thing was that I had bypassed the payment step.

I've been a member of BHW for 3 years, and my stats will shout out loud for me. I am not someone who'd go for any free shit being offered. I wouldn't risk my reputation for a free SEO package.

And as for the fake reviews, the same is applicable to the review copies given to mods for getting the threads approved. The seller could easily over-deliver to the reviewer but not be as good with other orders.

Just my 2 cents.

Holy shit that is nice movement, you created the thread 2 days ago, is that when the service started?

Yes it started 2-3 days ago from when I posted that.
The big keyword started at #47 i think, then it disappeared then it appeared again at #17 ! Currently keywords are still sitting at #9 and #17

I am very impressed so far!
