My 3 years effective onsite and offsite SEO strategy

[Sanjar]

Hello everyone,
I'm pretty new on BHW but not in SEO world!
I have been doing pretty good work in the past few years and ranked a few websites of mine.
I'm here now to share my strategies which are pretty simple, and I know that most of you are already doing it.
I decided to make this post because I came across some posts asking how to do it!

This post is for whoever is new to the onsite and offsite SEO.
​

I will keep it short and simple:

1.Design your website for look and speed and rich with high-quality contents,
Let a pro help you if you can't, or you do not have enough time for it.
A. Web address.
B. Logo.
C.Brand name.
D. High-Quality Contents.
E. Quality images ( not scraped ones)
F. Quality videos ( not scraped ones)
G. Internal Links

2. Start with onsite SEO.

3.Never use software and content generators for your money site.

4.Use only unique articles for both your money site and backlinks.

5.Write articles yourself if you can do it and if you have time for it otherwise pay Pros to do it for you.

6.Be patient and take your time to avoid any mistakes that you need to fix it later,
doing it right in the first step will save you a lot of time.

7.Tons of free tools are available to help you, but you, need some paid ones as well.

You can find a huge list of SEO tools at the bottom of this post.
​

8. Start the offsite SEO:
A. Never go crazy to make 100's of backlinks in a few months,
be patient and do it slowly over time.
Start by building a few of them in the fist couple of weeks,
and then decrease them to just a few of them in each month,
in most cases (except if your niche is really competitive and hard to rank)

B. The first important thing when building backlinks is to avoid leaving footprints.

Wondering what type of backlinks you need?
Here is a short list for you:

You need a mixture of Do follow, and no follow backlinks.
Bookmark websites.
Web directories.
Guest posting.
Site-wide and footer backlinks.
Article directories.
Advertorials.
Widget backlinks.
Blog networks.
Social pages and signals

And here is a list of a few methods you need to use:
A. The broken-link building method
B. Backlinks through infogr
C. Donate (you can earn backlinks by donating to nonprofit organizations).
D. Online interviews are a great and easy way to earn backlinks to your website.
E. graphics
F. Write testimonials
G. Contact journalists and important bloggers


C. Spying on your competitor is a good method.

D. Again High-Quality Contents.

E. Use Anchor text variation,
Empty alt texts in linking images.
Anchors in foreign languages.
URLs.
Non-descriptive.
Partial and broad match.
Exact match.
Brand name/Brand-keyword hybrid.
Never insist on a particular keyword to rank for.

F. Do not use software (not yet)

G. Remember that link building is all about quality and not quantity anymore.

H. keep always track of your backlinks build them some authority (link wheel & Link Pyramid)

Let me know what you guys think about buying backlinks(quality ones)
The only thing that makes me concern about buying backlinks even quality ones is
that they might go down after a while and you have no control over them to recover them or
remove them if the seller is not available to reach for any reason.

I. You can use software and tools for tier link building.

J. Never spend even a few minutes in a day to check your ranking manually,
Time is gold in this business, just use a rank trackers even free ones.

Save yourself some time by purchasing good services BHW marketplace or other forums.

Bookmark websites.
Web directories.
Guest posting.
Site-wide and footer backlinks.
Article directories.
Advertorials.
Widget backlinks.
Blog networks.
Social pages and signals

What about infographics? I have several that people have used my embed code for(gives me 2 backlinks: image and a branded one to the post it was on) to write posts around. I do see you mentioned "graphics" further down the list as a method, but not just for blogs, but also on hosting sites it helps.
What about video? I host some videos on one of my site, and again, people have used my embed code, giving me a branded backlink.
What about audio? I again, host a podcast, I get backlinks when people use it on their site.
Will social signals help my SERP?
Do you feel that article directories, site-wide, and footer links give you a good bang for the effort anymore? Or is that partially niche dependent?

Youwntion to not use scraped images? Why? What do you recommend for getting HQ images?

You know many of us use the light theme and cant see a thing from the post, dont u?

 

[boogieboy]

This is a noob question, but what WordPress theme do you recommend for a first site that is easy to use and manage? Preferably free, but that is not a requirement.

Thank you for mentioning and correcting me about infographics and yes I misplaced it under methods.
I mentioned about the effectiveness of videos for the onsite seo and for sure that it is important for offsite seo as well.
and again you are right about audio.
Social signals will definitely help your SERP.
article directories, site-wide, and footer links are mostly niche dependent and they are totally fine for someone who is doing seo for easy keywords.

sorry for that and color has changed.
hopefully it is easier to read now.

I have used these themes in the past and I think they are pretty simple to use and they should be still free:

Modern Portfolio Pro
Camellia
Corner
Maxwell

by theway, for the simple and premium, you can try one of my favorites:

Colorlib
Massive Dynamic

 

[darulez]

honestly, when I start my heavy sniffing on the competition, they do nothing of those "white knight wariorr" stuff..

they either got some PBN, or buy fkn expensive blogpost. some even tier those fkn expensive post with 2-3 less expensive ones...

 

[pressrelease]

Cant read enough almost non visible on light theme.

 

[nupnow]

I think it's very useful for novice if you add a bit description about the function of the tools
anyway, nice post
Thanks for sharing

What's a good indexing service to use? right now I have multiple gmail accounts and hide behind VPN and use "Submit google" (or create fake blogspot accounts for the sole purpose of indexing) if I'm impatient.

Thanks for share

im not allowed to make 100 links a month? RIP. theres no need to worry this much. google understands u can get a lot of links to new domains if you for example posted link on reddit and many people liked it = many will post it on their websites.

These are the types of posts that will attract dozens of PMs from people offering to make you rich overnight, sell you a service if you pay by BTC or tell you for $500 they will mentor you to become a millionaire in 3 months time.

IGNORE all these types of PMS and REPORT them if they offer any of these things.
