[First Steps] clockhouse SEO Journey

April 26, 2014

Whew, been hectic. Didn't mean to abandon this journey for a month but life just happens sometimes, you know? But I'm back for good and will see this journey through until the end!

All right, I've scraped my last website that I was working on and started a new one on something I was actually interested in. And this has made this project 10x more interesting to work on.

Currently, the new website is targeting 3 main keywords and I'm planning on tackling them one by one. I want to slowly turn this MNS into an authority site someday.

Right now I have PBN that consists of 98 domains (mix of home page url, inpost url, commercial anchors, LSI conversational anchors, brand anchors), one 301 pointing towards my website, and a 200~ GSA SER links built towards my money site.

Rankings are jumping in and out for the other two keywords but you can see the first one I'm targeting below. For now, I'm trying to figure out how to push onto the first page. I've been adding in more domains into the PBN but it hasn't budged. Going to wait a few more days before I scrape more domains and build another 5 - 10 while I let GSA built more links to help index my T1's.

I'm still in the same trap of seo mindset. jumping from one half-assed project to another.
one week i dream about clickbank, the next amazon, jvzoo, cj, shareasale, etc
then I think about ways of getting traffic from social media, trying to find the perfect niche..
yet i never get anywhere

I know what you mean! It's a little tough to get out of that groove but you have the key to get out of that trap!

Looks like my rankings are starting to make a push for the first page! I'm going to wait another day or two to see where exactly I'll land after this SERP movement. After I'm going to pick up another 5 - 10 domains and add them into the PBN and hopefully slowly climb to position one.

Today I'm going to look for 10 expired domains to pick up and finish setting them up so they'll get indexed asap.

I've already found 10 expired domains with TF 20+ and waiting on hosting information. Planning on using 9/10 domains for my PBN and the last one as another 301 + SAPE since that was the last thing I did to before I got pushed onto page 1, looks like that's working so far.

are you getting any money out of these rankings?

Hey guys! I've been adding in new articles to the site, which are targeting keywords with 1xx - 9xx monthly searches. The site now has 30 articles and each new article has links being built to it with GSA SER.

I've been playing around with my anchor texts on my PBN to help diversify. Rankings for the my first keyword
is still jumping from page 1 to page 2.

Slowly starting to stress me out waiting for these rankings to change haha.
