Thanks. Also thanks for the suggestion I will look into it.
I am starting to get things done. I am going to quality videos rather than quantity. I plan to upload 1 video for 1 of my niches soon. I am just editing it. I will then attempt to rank it. I literally know nothing about ranking videos. I don't really know what I should use for views; Vagex, Ehanceviews, etc?
Same for likes and comments, LOL I have got of learning to do
This is my technique that works all the time for ranking videos -
1) Optimize title, description, tags for keywords.
2) Order a view/like/comment dripfeed gig on fiver.
I either do 10,000 NATURAL views +100 likes over 2 weeks, or 20,000 NATURAL views + 200 likes over 2 months.
3/4 of the time I do the latter because that gig always overdelivers (I usually wind up with 60,000+ views). Although results happen much slower, they are A LOT stronger.
3) As these gigs are going on, I prepare a list in scrapebox.
I scrape for a bunch of relevant keywords, then filter lists to get an even mix of nofollow and ********. Although tbo, I don't always do this. I've ranked tons of videos with nothing but nofollow links, and lately I'm getting lazy because it doesn't seem I even need ******** links to rank most my vids.
I never ping any of my links.
I always batch my videos together.
The day the views/likes start I do one blast of about 10,000 links. Maybe about 2,500 are successful. But that doesn't mean 2,500 are indexed. I may get 50-100 that are indexed on day 1. Then the rest gradually build over time.
About 7 days later, I blast again, this time I'll aim for about 40,000-50,000 urls.
I don't expect ANY significant changes at all for at least 1-2 weeks min.
Around week 2-3, I guage which videos are struggling, extract those, rebatch and reblast.
Generally speaking, it takes me 3-4 weeks to rank.
However, I usually stay away from keywords that get over 20,000 searches / month (on YKT).
Eventually I'll be going after much bigger keywords, and I'll be buying GSA engine to combine with scrapebox for backlinks.
If you don't have or want to use automated software, just buy gigs on fiver. Like 1 gig a week till the video ranks.
I have tested xrumer gigs before and many of them worked fine. The only downside is costs can quickly add up if
you're doing a lot of videos. Not to mention, in the long run, links always get deleted. So you will need to reup a lot of videos.
The reality is, I just like software better because it gives me more control. Saving money is just a bonus.
To summarize -
Don't use vagex. Use fiver or youlikehits.
If you plan on doing a lot of videos, I highly recommend investing in backlinking software. I must have spent $300 in fiver backlink gigs before I bought scrapebox. And it was one of the best investments I ever made. Not just for backlinking videos, but for generating keyword lists its AWESOME. You can type in phrases like "how to", "where to get", "how to crack" and scrape an endless list of niches for incentivized offers.
I'm working on a massive list right now actually.
