I ordered the regular
6 site deal from King Maker a while back and have both good and bad points to make (I can be a bit critical sometimes)
PROS:
- The sites are clean and the themes are nice.
- The keywords are well thought out and the competition isn't too high. (some have authority, though - but lack of content length/quality)
- The CPC is nice for the keywords given, plus a quick run through Google Keyword Planner and you can get tons of LSI keywords that are ripe for the picking.
- Though I understand that some people have been waiting a while, my order was delivered in a reasonable amount of time.
- The ads are in good positions so once you get the traffic, you should get some nice CTR. All plug n play.
CONS:
- The plugins you include should probably be re-thought. There is a lot of overlap (All in One SEO + Yoast, Yoast VS XML Sitemaps (Yoast has XML Sitemaps)), among a few other things.
- No "Complete SEO Guide" when I ordered, though with recent google changes that is understandable -> its still in the title of the thread which is a bit misleading.
- The Categories need more thought put into them. The articles are in all categories and the categories are just the main/lsi keywords. This is a bit of a
canonical mess with a risk of
over-optimization.
CONCLUSION:
- Regardless of the cons, I am still relatively happy with my order.
- I am sure the OP is swamped with orders so please be patient with him. He's a friendly guy. Send him a kind PM and he'll sort you out.
- Though I am not thrilled with the redundant plugins/categories, those are easy fixes -> HOWEVER, it shouldn't be a problem to begin with.
- A little bummed about not having a working SEO Plan with this order, as I only have experience with authority sites, though that is fine too.
- I updated one of the themes and it broke the layout (though that is not King Maker's fault but the theme maker)
- Will I order again?
Yes. It saves me time.
EXTRA -> MY PLAN:
- Potentially setting up Genesis theme on each of the sites while noting the ad positions (obviously not necessary)
- Removing redundant categories and replace them with my own.
- Removing All-In-One SEO and XML Sitemaps while keeping Yoast ( I seem to have better luck with Yoast anyway)
- Set up more content and interlink articles.
- Set up semi-manual T1 high PR Web 2.0's pointing to articles (loose anchors/generic/brand/etc)
- Utilize GSA to do a tiered contextual pyramid to T1's mostly (some randoms directly to site).
- If you have a better strategy that you are willing to share, feel free
OVERALL RATING:
7.5/10
