SERPs dropping, what did I do wrong?

[dr.pepper]

Bigbong, if there's one thing I've learned in life, it's that there's no point denying the obvious. The only way I can improve in all things is to learn from those smarter than me. Which is why I posted on here knowing there was a good chance I'd get a lot of flak

We have all been there before. As long as you don't have an attitude and take the criticism on board then you will always learn.
I've found that criticism motivates me to learn more anyway

Just outsource a service from BHW, many of them are great and you get honest reviews.
You'll get nice prices as well.

The problem is, I selected the link services based on forum feedback at WF. So if anyone has any reputable ones that they recommend here, I'm all ears (until Cash202 comes out with his own paid service that is ).

High PR/Authority guest blog posts on related websites.

As an SEO company if this is not an intricate part of your strategy you are doing something wrong.

Just to add to this.

Before you hit up a project get a 3 month SEO plan in place. Figure out the types of backlinks you want, why you want them and why they will help you. Only after you have created this strategy should you begin to outsource it, and when you do outsource just outsource small bits, make sure you have full control.

For example you might want high PR guest blogs for authority and good link juice.
You might want some niche related blog commenting to mix in some no follows to make it look natural.
You might want some highly regarded directories to add the your link variation.
You might want to use answer sites to drive some organic traffic.
You might want some tier 2 links to increase the flow of link juice to your money site.

The list goes on until you have a well rounded strategy. You can outsource some of it but keep control.

No point beating around the bush

Absolutely agree. I just see so many threads asking for help with one thing or the other, yet the OPs seem to think that any suggestion of change is a personal insult. After 5 posts the thread usually escalates into name calling and OPs wildly defending tactics they said themselves weren't working. Good to see someone ignoring a bit of harsh language and focusing on the essential suggestions.

This line on their homepage. From what I read, all link tools like Majestic, ahrefs, etc only show at most up to 30% of backlinks:

About Reports:No report because we want to ensure we offer the privacy of our service in the eyes of Google and our competitors. We'll show you the 25% links and show you how to display the rest with services like Majestic SEO or ahrefs.

SAPE doesn't have any English language pages and they provide full reports. Please don't use it if you don't know what it is.
These links are too powerful and too dangerous. You are probably looking for site of an incompetent reseller.

Do I need to make BUY SEO link bigger in my signature?

BTW, to give OP a proper answer. All "build these type of links" or "build that type of links" answers are useless.

You need to look at the whole picture.

On-page of the site, crawling issues, titles, etc
Backlink profile as a whole (do-follow/no follow distribution, sitewide/single page liks distribution, anchor text distribution, PR distribution etc)
AND
Compare all of the above with a few top ranking sites for the keyword in question.

Otherwise it is like "fix your site" and "build more links" kinda advice.

PS. I've never seen a ranking problem huge surge of high PR links couldn't fix (excluding deindexed domains and "#1 to not in top #100 overnight" domain level penalties)

Also, if you go for SAPE links, PM me. I don't sell them (yet?) but I can give you a strategy so you don't shoot yourself in a foot.

methods you are using does not give much value on the rankings..
i recommend to used that method only when you need to vary your anchor text..

for my targeted keywords and brand, i used links from networks and my own private network ...

i guess you need to make it bigger

To OP, why don't you use cash202 BST. He provides results, since you don't know what you were doing in the first place. Learn from him, read his threads. You don't want to loose a client because you were just beating the bush and hoping for the best.

 

[bramantya]

sometimes too many factors to count that make u cannot accurately what is wrong and right

Yeah, that was my bad. I totally didn't know he had launched a service. I spent time last night going through his epic threads and thought "holy cow, there's no way I can put this together myself, even with the detailed instruction". What I don't have is time. What I do have is a budget. So I'm definitely going to hit up Cash202's package.
