Do you guys trust Neil Patel?

Hi! I trust Only My self and Works....

Whether you trust him or not you still gotta respect the hustle. Personally this is the most energy I've ever spent thinking about him.

Pure spunkey nut. Impresses super noobs, that get caught up with everything. However, fair play to the guy, he made it work for him and took action.

What he does obviously works, as there is even this thread created about him.

I would never buy anything he is selling so the trust question has never come up. He obviously has good industry knowledge and experience but he is the new breed of "car salesman" type who I avoid.

Content marketing wise, the guy knows what he is talking about. Rest of it all, just gimmicks

Big no.

He's running over 100 blogs and lots of them have paid advertising ranking #1 words and backlinking his main blog. He knows BS about hardcore SEO. If it's not news or trending stuff G use to give you results a little bit old. That's why it's a great idea recycle content and update it. Rewrite content already set as AUTHORITY is not that smart. SEO 101 calling...

If I personally do, that doesn't matter, because he uses social media to get clients and to build a personal brand, and then they get paid for public speaking, and IM clients.
which is working, so what matters is do clients trust him? the answer is yes

BUT WHY, all his videos have almost no value??
in this day and age, if your name and face is all over the place, regarding a subject, people think your the authority

if I'm able to deliver similar results regarding SEO, approach businesses, without zero personal branding, and no public name, normally he would close the client way easier than me.
Unless maybe the client couldn't afford his services, and i charge way less money, and i have 10/15 insane testimonials, and cases.

So do i look at his videos, and wait for extremely valuable bombs to implement them? normally not, because i don't expect them to spill their deepest secrets for free, so the entire whole world will implement those methods, and saturate them, so potentially their main income will be affected, no i don't.
But they could be worth it for beginners!

Do i look at his strategy of selling? Yes I do, because clearly, it works,,,

He is a great seller for sure. No question about it! It's been this way forever. Here at BHW we have people providing excellent services, real great stuff and helping people a lot. Some services are pure BS or old techniques that may or may not work on 2019. Some dealers can even harm or destroy your business with pretty stupid tools and techniques. Let's be honest! When we are dealing with major league business like competing for high demanding KW, dropshipping, selling online, generating traffic... you first need to beat Wikipedia, now YT content and for some cases Local SEO listings; so your content will be shown.

Apps and social media are more than necessary to help your blog/site/store to stand out among the crowd. Don't expect to rank well for 10-15 KW anymore with just one blog (money sites). Even driving more than 19K/day for a tribute classic rock band fan blog and ranking #1 for 6 or 7 keywords, I cannot beat one of my competitors for their lyrics pages. So Im missing more than 5K visitors per day looking for a content that I have but somehow it's ignored by the algos.

It is what it is. Some battles you win, some you lose.

Hell NO, he sounds like a broken record rewriting his sales script every year or so to fit the latest Google updates with NO value whatsoever. Besides that, he is so f@#$% annoying.

From what I've seen from him, he seems like a snake in the grass. I can just tell by his happy-go-lucky attitude.

A snake oil salesman who perfected his craft.

They say you shouldn't waste time polishing a turd, but then you get someone like Patel who builds an empire from it. Good for him.

Fuck Neil Patel viva BHW !!!!!!!

I would like to give him 5 keywords to him and challenge him to rank well (not necessary #1) but first page. I talking about the ones I rank #1 and see if he's able to outrank me. It's valid for you all too. Those running hardcore SEO business has crawled deep to emerge back with the crown. People talk about his know-how... blah. I know some people at BHW that would eat him alive and make way more money than the does. Really much more!

Not naming names but I've met one member in 2017 that really has built an empire on dropshipping. Clap, Clap, Clap sir
