Do YouTube likes/dislikes actually have a concrete affect on rankings (within YT)? I made a new video last week, and I'm about to purchase 25,000 views from a supplier and was wondering if it'd help me enough if I had a couple hundred of them?

Bought a $100.00 banner ad-space on a relevant website a little awhile ago and when the ad was over, this was my result. Banner was 468x60 (alternates from header position to footer at times). I shared this ad-spot with a lot of other people. (i.e - like everytime you visit the website it was...

I haven't faced any penalties or manual action but I have a couple site-wide links (I believe from PBNs) that I'd like to have ignored. I've had a lot of the links from those few domains removed already but Google hasn't crawled the sites in weeks/months so it hasn't caught up to it yet. I...

Long story short, I bought some PBN links from the BST close to a year ago and most of those domains are deindexed now. I contacted the owner of said blogs about a week ago and had all links removed but my question is does Google still follow and take action of a deindexed domain? Will it...

Has anybody been able to use redirects to take over a niche WITHOUT getting penalties weeks/months later? I'm debating on whether or not I'll be able to use this as a long-term ranking solution to my money site. Just something that'll last upward to 6-12 months, I banked hard with SAPE/Russian...

Has anybody done any case-studies or noticed link devaluation in blogroll links over the past 2-3 years? I noticed in 2013 one of my sites had about 3-4 blogroll links (all for the same anchor) from a PBN in the BST section. Said site was ranked #5 previously but since then has dropped and...

I'm in a competitive niche, ranked #10 and #11 for two medium keywords. I've been as high as #4 for both, but I've lost a lot of links that I bought overtime. My site is PR3/PA46/DA37 and is actually more authoritative than most of the competition (a few are on authoritative domains like reddit...

I recently came across some High PR/High DA d0follow domains that'd allow me to include a contextual post and a Raw URL to my website. Only thing that irks me is the backlinks are so deep within the domains that I'm wondering would I even get any worthwhile link-juice/authority from them even...

So far I've gotten 3-4 backlinks to stick in Wikipedia.Org's external links for close to a week now on pages that are PR4-PR6 with PA30-80. The pages were re-indexed with my links almost immediately and I've been checking them for days now seeing if they'd stick. My question is, has anybody ever...

Last week or so I had a buyer purchase my ebook ($49.95). He made the transaction and I even sent a manual email with the download incase the instant transaction/shopping cart failed. fastforward a week later and he's promptly requesting a refund. The thing is, this buyer is actually a marketer...

I'm about to launch my first ever Media Buy campaign in the music/drumloop/instrumental niche. I've developed my own product I'll be advertising for $49.95. I've checked BuySellAds and other Ad Networks for music-related websites and honestly, I wasn't impressed by the traffic I saw. So I sought...

Has anybody using MailChimp dealt with these before? Basically they occur when someone marks your messages as SPAM from within their e-mail program. I was wondering does anybody know what number or threshold of "Abuse Complaints" is unacceptable? I sent about eight e-mails to a small (800...

Lately I've been gearing up for a digital product launch. I've scraped a 10k targeted (in the same niche) mailing list to accompany it. I'm fairly new to e-mail marketing and I've been learning things on the fly so far. Earlier this week I took a small chunk of it (about 200-300 people) and...

Hi, I recently just built a mailing list of 1600 prospects in my niche that are active buyers. I signed up to mailchimp yesterday, imported said list, started a campaign, and designed my newsletter. Now, with this being my first time ever sending out a newsletter (especially with hopes of...

I've heard different things about whether or not these dynamic page/server-based redirects could become indexed and actually count as legitimate backlinks. http://nsf.gov/cgi-bin/good-bye?http://www.yoursite.comhttp://plymouthmn.gov/redirect.aspx?url=http://www.yoursite.com...

Do nofollow links from authority sites pass any link-juice at all? a couple sites that had a few of my best backlinks just recently included nofollow tags in their HTML code this month; trying to see what I should make of it. thanks in advance.

Usually my website fluctuates between #4 and #5. Well for the past week or so it shot up to #4 and remained there until maybe last night. Last night it dropped to #6 and now it's at #7. I see about 3-4 low quality sites on the front page that are NEVER there so I'm thinking it's all the...

How effective would you say .EDU/.GOV backlinks are in the grand scheme of things? Forum profiles and .EDU blog posts specifically? In passing, I recall someone saying a PR0 .EDU link is equivalent to a regular PR3 link? Can someone chime in on this? Is anyone using these backlinks in their...

In August 2012 I started a business/website in my niche, I built about 1500 do-follow/no-follow links from relevant sites (message boards, blog comments, etc). Content on my website is unique only and handwritten by me. In January I found a trustable, non-spammy 3 year old, PR3 domain with...
