My SEO Blueprint (SENuke, AMR, BMD, Xrumer, Scrapebox)

[garrido]

Amazing thread.

 

[cash202]

Yea but like no one is using it. Or weren't when I was last there 3 weeks ago.

I am always there if you have questions.

 

[cash202]

I think we are splitting hairs. I will peep it again. I am pro forum I was actually looking forward to it.

The kind of thing that I probably need to contribute to the forum is time management.

The activities that bring the most money go on the top of the list. As business grows the less time is left for community projects. I even hand out at BHW a lot less now.

This is a very awesome and detailed post. I think i need to push myself forward to start doing SEO correctly. I'm a total newbie in this area. Thanks for putting it all out without anything in return!

I am also making a white hat version of it to sell on DP

Okay, I have read like 20 pages and obviously to finish this I need another half day or so, but I have a question in mind. I apologize if this has been answered before.

I know you said that links from the same web 2.0 do count, although they don't add the number of sources (unique domains) of the links.

You also recommend blasting the first tier with random Xrumer, Scrapebox and other links to make them... well, random.

Here's my question. Have you tried this on a site with thousands of pages? When trying to rank like a dozen of them, do you use the same Web 2.0 links to point to them?

Aren't that too suspicious if all my links come from the same web 2.0 sites? Perhaps for big sites, there is no way but to augment link building efforts with link baiting, guest blogging and other more 'white' tactics?

What do you suggest?

Great tips, thank you.

Well, things are bit different in 2012.

This is how I would approach big site.

Send 80% of links to home page and 20% to other pages.

All links to the home page must use your brand name (whatever your domain name is; like ridiculously.com - your brand is ridiculously) and domain name (AKA naked links). Remember, this is like 80% of your links (or more). No anchor text. Over-fucking-optimised brand name only. Make sure the majority of them are do-follow (I think site starts to turn to shit after around 40-45% of no-follow links, IMO keep it under 20%). Don't go for cheap comment spam or other crappy ways to build it up. Here goes your guest blogging and link baits or whatever. This stuff was never bad for your overall campaign success, just too much work (that can pay off big too, if you do it correctly).

Make sure the number of linking domains is growing all the time. If you are self promoting, change your Web 2.0 domains every 5 posts or something. Use as many Web 2.0 and site builders you can find. There are literally hundreds of them. I prefer the ones that no stock tool like SENuke can post to. Spam some press release sites or buy PRWeb. If they stick, you can get some juicy links from them.

Then, identify your most important pages you want to rank and hit them with exact match anchor text campaigns BUT make sure the amount of exact match anchor text links is NOTHING comparing to overall branding bullshit. Anything can go here. Even things like high PR contextual home page links, footer farm links, paid links, whatever. Stay away from sitewides though.

Cash knows whereof he speaks. He's been kind enough to indulge a number of questions from me in recent months and I'm turning around some of my SEO campaigns based pretty much on the advice above. I had a number of sites hit hard in April like everybody else, and by the recent EMD update.

September & October have been my best months since the April crash thanks to this advice. I'm not up to pre-Panda income levels yet but I'm finally in the ballpark and the trendline is good.

One thing I don't believe Cash has mentioned is that when you start getting links in the above fashion you should see money site conversion rates improve. I don't have enough sample size to put firm number on it yet. But its pretty clear for me. I'm getting a higher quality of traffic.

This is a question for Cash aswel as other people reading...

Do you still submit your sitemap.xml to Google Webmaster tools? I read in some other threads that people are staying away from Google Webmaster since the recent updates? Whats your opinion?

Hello I carefully readed this post and I m really curious and would like to ask you a few questions since I really believe in direct linking and not much in link schemes / pyramids etc .. so here are my questions :

1) ALL the link pointing to your index page MUST be Brand name and nude domain name ? For example : My domain is 345rcty.com then I will use 345rcty and 345rcty.com as anchor? And this way of linking will be 80% of my total links ? Note that I choosed this domain coz it doesn't have any keyword inside ( so its not an EMD ). This is the way you think we should link our main page ( just to be sure I understood correctly the whole thing) ? You think that in this way the main page will rank for any money keyword? Or you simply think that we dont need to rank the main page for keywords and that we should use other pages of the website to rank?

2) The main page links should come from web 2.0 properties only and then we should blast those Web 2.0 properties we have created with other tools? How many of those properties you advice to build daily or weekly?

3) The other 20% of our links pointing to internal pages can come from any type of websites ( so for example we could use links produced by GSA or scrapebox on those internal pages) and they will have keyword we need to rank as anchor text?

4) What about on site main page ( index page) optimization? For example on 345rcty.com what will be my header title? Should I use a money keyword or not?

5) What is for you a big site? How many pages should have a big site?

As I said before I come from a different experience , I got some site banned and some other is still there ranking and nothing happened . I would like to try something different and I ve to say your post teached me a lot . Thank you for the time you dedicate to help people on BHW .

Almost finished the whole pages. This is a gigantic thread. Wish so much info, I guess there's no one who could implement this exactly the same. Pattern, what pattern?

I need to clarify one thing. You repeatedly said one set of account per niche. I found it hard to believe, after all this "avoid footprint" suggestion...

I mean, if you only have one blog in LiveJournal, one blog in WordPress.com, one site at Weebly etc., with 3-5 posts each, and all of those posts linking back to your money site and site pages, but no other blogs in the same domain with links to the money pages... hmm... it is so obvious for Google and the site owner that you're self promoting, right?

Shouldn't it be like 5 blogs in each domain, each with 3-5 posts, and only 2-3 of the posts for each blog have links to your money site. Others, perhaps with no links, or links to other non-competitive, authority site? What do you think?

Just a thought.

I hate to admit this, but I spent enormous amount of time in account creation. If I don't really need these many accounts, I should save a lot of effort and time.

I don't submit anything to Google Webmaster Tools anymore and use Piwik on the domain where Google bot is blocked via robots.txt and domain itself is deindexed instead of Google Analytics. I still have some sites in GWT because I am too lazy to remove them but that's about it.

Hello I carefully readed this post and I m really curious and would like to ask you a few questions since I really believe in direct linking and not much in link schemes / pyramids etc .. so here are my questions :

If you are self-promoting, most likely your direct links will be from new domains and non-authoritative sites. Layering links will help if this case. Also, layering is a sort of link laundering when you milk link juice from massive amount of crappy link via high quality links.

1) ALL the link pointing to your index page MUST be Brand name and nude domain name ? For example : My domain is 345rcty.com then I will use 345rcty and 345rcty.com as anchor? And this way of linking will be 80% of my total links ? Note that I choosed this domain coz it doesn't have any keyword inside ( so its not an EMD ). This is the way you think we should link our main page ( just to be sure I understood correctly the whole thing) ? You think that in this way the main page will rank for any money keyword? Or you simply think that we dont need to rank the main page for keywords and that we should use other pages of the website to rank?

Not all but majority of links would better be a brand name. In a nutshell, brand is the part of the domain before the .com as what big brand usually are: Amazon (amazon.com), Microsoft (microsoft.com), Walmart (walmart.com), etc...

I didn't say exact match anchor links are not necessary. Actually I think they are the links that boost your ranking the most but now you need to cover it up with overwhelming number of brand and URL links to avoid penalties.

You can ensure certain pages rank for certain keyword by just doing proper on-page SEO and boosting the authority of your domain. Example - create a well optimised on-page product page at Amazon. It will most certainly rank with a handful of links if you choose your keyword correctly. Mostly because of good on-page SEO and huge authority if amazon.com domain.

2) The main page links should come from web 2.0 properties only and then we should blast those Web 2.0 properties we have created with other tools? How many of those properties you advice to build daily or weekly?

From 1 to 1,000,000. Seriously, there's no one-size-fits-all recipe. First tier of links in this blueprint is about 20-40. For low competition local SEO keywords you can run two cycles per month and you'll kill all the competitors. Not the same for "payday loans".

3) The other 20% of our links pointing to internal pages can come from any type of websites ( so for example we could use links produced by GSA or scrapebox on those internal pages) and they will have keyword we need to rank as anchor text?

I don't pour shit from GSA or Scrapebox directly to the money site (unless it's YouTube video or Amazon or eBay product page).

These 20% of link is where your targeted keyword campaign go, it is where your high PR exact match posts go, etc...

4) What about on site main page ( index page) optimization? For example on 345rcty.com what will be my header title? Should I use a money keyword or not?

I have only one on-page SEO rule that I don't break and it is to have the keyword you'd like to rank for in the target page title (HTML title tag).

5) What is for you a big site? How many pages should have a big site?

What's big to you? Is YouTube big? Is 1,000 posts blog big?

The ways of Google are mysterious. There are people who do everything by the book and yet get smashed by the update. Take for example Ask The Builder, the AdSense poster boy. Get fucked by Panda like everybody else. Google's success case study.

Shouldn't it be like 5 blogs in each domain, each with 3-5 posts, and only 2-3 of the posts for each blog have links to your money site. Others, perhaps with no links, or links to other non-competitive, authority site? What do you think?

I hate to admit this, but I spent enormous amount of time in account creation. If I don't really need these many accounts, I should save a lot of effort and time.

Here is the deal. If you promote a single site, you need to recycle account every five or so posts. Why? Because new Web 2.0 account usually means new domain and you need to grow the number of domains as well as the number of links.

By all means, link to your competitors, link to other sites in top 10, have posts without links at all. It all helps.

 

[theguruland]

Thank you for the answer , I understand your point but its not clear to me about the 20% links . Where you find those links? Could you please give me an example? You use any tool?

 

[NEVERGIVEUP]

Thanks for your comments Cash.

You must have done 100's of these cycles now. Which part of this cycle would you say that you get the biggest boost from? I've done a few cycles now, and it seems as though the Web 2.0's are giving me the biggest push. In this case, would it be wise to keep creating more and more Web 2.0 properties?

I'm not sure if I've read this right. If you block the google bot how does the site rank in google?

 

[cash202]

Google bot is only blocked on the site where Piwik is installed (separate domain). The actual domain that I rank is not blocked.

Web 2.0s give you the boost but you need to support them with other links.
