    how does fake facebook likes help a business?

    The main theory is that facebook likes = social proof and it helps conversions. You should test though. Doesn't work in all markets. YMMV

    Question about tiered linkbuilding

    Why not both? If you build up the link profile of your home/index page, every new article you post will automatically receive a portion of that ranking power. Plus it's pretty unnatural to have all links pointing directly to articles. Mix it up for best results.

    any update in google ranking recently ? 7/3/2013

    Has there been any "traditional" updates in the last 12 months though? It's clear to me that G wants to obfuscate their updates as much as possible by bundling them together so there's overlap, using time delays, and giving out of context warnings/statements to spread fear & confusion. This...

    fab.com - who they get from?

    Just some tidbits I know about Fab... They focus on being a "discovery engine" instead of a catalog style commerce site, and they've developed a platform for early stage designers/entrepreneurs to promote their own products. 90% of the products on Fab can't be found on Amazon. They get between...

    Six Figure LeadGen Part IV: Business Models

    Hey kboxer, I've been reading all of your lead gen biz threads and have learned a ton, both from what you've said directly and from researching ideas that have been sparked by reading your threads, so first I want to thank you for taking the time to post quality information based on your own...

    Recovered a Penguin hit site. Simple, but worked.

    False. Most of what you said is good advice but this just isn't true. As long as the web continues to use HTTP, SEO will always be about linkbuilding. Some of the other signal may gain importance over time, but to dismiss linkbuilding would be a mistake.

    Post-Penguin New link building

    EP, when you are doing link profile analysis have you noticed a higher correlation between rankings and anchor text distribution based on referring pages for each anchor, or based on referring domains for each anchor? Based on what I've seen, the penalties are based on referring pages for EMA...

    Yeah no problem. I sincerely hope it doesn't come across as slandering at any point, because that wasn't my intention. I just wanted to provide a comprehensive and honest review. I'm confident that you can and will address whatever problems might have been unearthed. Ha, I hadn't heard of...

I've heard really good things about it, and I've learned a lot from Cash over the past few months so I felt like I should come back here and leave a comprehensive, honest review. Overview: The main...

    Link Building Difference: SeNuke vs ZennoPoster/Ubot

    I'm getting around 10% success rate, so I would consider that pretty low. Switched the same template to de-captcher and got around 50% which is still horrible but obviously much better than DBC. Haven't heard of that one, I'll check into it. I didn't think it would have anything to do with...

    Link Building Difference: SeNuke vs ZennoPoster/Ubot

    I ran into a problem earlier today with captchas for a specific site. I was using DBC. Have you ever noticed an unusually low accuracy rate with DBC in Zenno? I'd love to know more about this as well. This feature seems incredibly useful and there hasn't been talked about very much, at least...
