If you think it's bullshit, then leave the thread and don't follow it, no one is forcing you.
If I start a thread claiming if you "build exactly 57 links from one Tumblr page and no other links you'll shoot straight to rank 1!" all I should have is people getting on my dick for how great I am?
People are right to hold this up to scrutiny and while OP is under no obligation to show a domain a domain the only thing this really has going for it is wishful thinking.
maybe we could try this expired domains instead of new sites
Well this is my biggest issue with the concept.
OP mentioned you can't build other links because that would tell the search engine you no longer need the compensation (I'd quote it but I'm on a tiny laptop - scroll up though it's there). But I can't remember the last time I saw a keyword in a medium niche with one link from another new domain.
OP said the example site he posted there used to rank on Google.ru but only fell because it was outdated. I can accept it would fall off the page but I've had sites with no updates for longer than these two and if they fall they might slip a few positions or even pages but fall out of the serps entirely?
If anyone has an SEMrush guru account they scrape Google.ru if you stick the domains in there you won't see historic ranking data for them.
