Search results

My review (not on ranking, though). I would have to agree with what Tyrome wrote: In particular about the content quality, however you get what you pay for and I wasn't expecting good content. I did notice that at least one fake Page Rank domain (a PR 6 didn't have the links to back it up or...

Order placed for the 12 posts package. The reviews seem good. Currently, all the keywords are ranking nowhere. I will post back to review at a later date.

I used to like deathbycaptcha, but then wondered why my iMacros had stopped working with DBC (hadn't used them for a while). Now it uses a points system that expires (I don't remember this from before, but maybe my memory is bad). That sucks as I am not a frequent user. I guess I need to...

Yeah, I got it through that clickbank discount and then got it refunded as it was always coming up with being "unregistered" every time I started after using it with a VPN. It also doesn't search US results properly, so you need to be on a US IP or it will return your local results. (I sent a...

#1: Yes, but the time taken to do the research. Whereas if we can put a site into something like OpenSiteExplorer and see a score, follow the trail, etc, it will be quicker, rather than reviewing every page ourselves. How is that bad? #2: Sounds like a score will be assigned, just like the is...

Well, whether it's called a$$ licking project (or <insert word(s) that reflects your own personal hatred of Google and SEOMoz>), it has the potential to provide data that can be analysed and used to help design an SEO/linkbuilding plan. (As in, we can look at what we've done in the past, or...

Good, of course. We all want quality links and it will help identify what is/isn't. At the end of the day, it's their guess what Google thinks is good and isn't. And what we want is what Google thinks is good to help with ranking. This will be a valuable asset to any link builder.

Guest Post, if their blog is decent quality and doesn't come across as if it sells links. I'd avoid a blog roll as it's now not seen as what it was originally intended to be.

Expedient service and Sampler always comes across as professional. Much better than the last bookmarking service I dealt with. Good report, but happy to sacrifice that for drip-feeding. ;-) Thanks, Mr Sampler.

Thanks for the reply, mate. BTW, drip feed option sounds like a good idea.

Order placed (TID ending 42A). I'll know for sure when I get the report (but maybe useful to have answered in your thread anyway), is this just for Pligg, PhpDug, etc, sites?

Yep, TT is totally inaccurate as it doesn't use gl=us (to get local result, so a proxy is required) and they refuse to change it because gl=us causes problems for their customers, apparently!! That really makes no sense for when searching US results (how can it be a problem). It's potentially...

Did you include any kind of advert/affiliate link?

That is why a colour changer extension would work better for people who don't like the current scheme. Just set the text to black and background to white. I've had no problems so far.

In addition to a Chrome extension for changing site colours, this Firefox addon can also do it.

@wwexc, it could just be Google Dance. Sounds like it's a new site, so that would explain it (drop and no warning).

Let's get back on track, as you've taken it off track with Analytics (but still paranoid). The OP was on about being worried over GWMT. It'll be fine. You can add your sitemap (but Google probably already knows about it, you can then just see what it's doing with it). OP, if you're using a...

The problem isn't there as the links have been discounted already, rankings have dropped (because the links have lost value), so it's just time to move forward and not waste effort on trying to undo past mistakes. You seem to be more thinking of recovery from a manual penalty, which the OP...

If it's algorithmic, you don't need to get rid of those bad links as they have already been discounted by Google.

If it's an algorithmic penalty, don't worry about your old bad links, keep working on building some quality ones. Use something like link bait to get good organic links, try to rely less on making them yourself, take advantage of social media for keeping your followers (or potential ones) up to...
