Current Working SEO Strategies - May 27th 2014

[Wilson Grant Fisk]

You really like to point this stuff out huh

Yes, I get slightly erect every time I do it, it's cheaper than viagra.

That Penguin update from half May seems to have been reversed for the most part or it has been made a lot less tight as 90%+ of the sites I track fully recovered between the 22th and 24th.

I can also confirm this. My site that was hit by Penguin 2.0 in May 2013 recovered right when they released Panda 4.0. I highly suspect that they did more than just Panda and Pay Day Loans updates.

Also I hope the PBN you keep jabbering on about is better hidden than the almost 300 sites I found registered to you:

Seriously Mate, you have left footprints all over the place.
Even on your blog case studies you are leaking too much information.
You really should invest in some Domain privacy.

SEOBS, you need to be careful in this forum as we have this detective here.

You are a great investigator W130SN! Most of your replies are based on facts, you put links to threads that back your comments and everything you say. Very impressive!

As... other than view the ranking results.

You could have summed up the whole post in one sentence by saying nothing worked.

 

[kulwinder]

There should be no problem with web 2.0 tier 1 unless you work like a spammer. Just keep the content and blog clean and increase the authority. It will be OK

Oh really? I know I won't be purchasing any of your services for sure.

You also need to factor in the age of the websites. I'm guessing these were all new domains, so any type of aggressive SEO would raise red flags. But its still a great test to know what you can or cant do on brand new websites.

Thanks for sharing the info!

 

[sommax]

Have You tried with LSI keywords ???

 

[IProvideSEO]

Wow, been gone for a day or two and someone from my thread gets re-banned lol

Anyways, yes the domains were only registered for about 6 weeks before I set them up and started the tests. They did last for about 4 months

We can takeaway a couple things here, domain age is a factor on how aggressive you can be and multiple strategies are better than 1 constant pattern.

Still open to suggestions and more strategies that would like to be tried out

So guys, any news what is working for you recently and what is not working?
any changes from the panda update?

 

[Arico Jennifer]

PBN is the most working strategy.

 

[partnersedge]

So far, PBN with no spamming. Spamming them with blog posts will kill them.

 

[littlehead]

More focus on PBN with frequent updates with new content. In my opinion, that has more weight than just building backlinks

I wanted to also mention that I set up webmaster tools on 2 SEO test sites that got the unnatural links warning.

After the linkprofile analysis I think I realized why these two websites got penalized. A majority of the links 70% where from the pbn even though they had natural anchors the links to the site all had either 6 or 1. There was only 30% of the links from other sources such as Wordpress.com and tumblr blogs, prweb and pinterest etc.

When I looked at other sites that didn't get the unnatural links warning but were on the same blog network the link profile was totally different. Instead of only 20-30 links (penalized websites) with an average of 6 or 1 links per domain these sites had over 100 and varied in the amount of links per domain think (600-1)

From this I think it is important to find ways to rank websites first with other techniques then use your PBN to finish it off. Also diversify your strategy and randomize it to an extent
