I have build 5 web 2.0 with content one thousand words pointing to my money site, written by hand and I want to blast them with gsa !!
Why do I need a vps if I have my own PC ?
So Proxies and captcha is the must... I need one hundred more
VPS you don't need right now. I think I waited 3 months before getting mine. So I just kept GSA running at like 40 threads as I worked on the same computer. Only issue was the slow ass internet connection. And when I got the VPS I went from using GSA 8 hours a day to 24 hours = 3xs as many links.
Still, I made GSA prove itself before getting a VPS. You can wait a few months if you need.
I'd say the same thing for proxies too. They make it run much better but if you can technically use public proxies. Just make sure GSA is searching frequently enough so you don't run out (like an interval of 2-5 mins).
What I'd say you can't hold off on is Captcha Breaker. Unlike a VPS or proxies it's a 1 time investment and WELL WORTH IT. So if you need to pick between proxies and CB go for CB first, get proxies and a VPS later. You may feel limited but I honestly believe these limitations helped me use the software more efficiently when I first got it... which in turn helped make money.
As far as your 5 web2.0. You gotta think big man.
When I started with GSA I picked out 10 low competition, fairly low search keywords without a lot of competition. Like 1000-3000 SM.
You will also need to peep your competitors backlinks. If they have weak links in volume (spam or "clean spam) that's a good sign.
The question is what to use? Answer = majestic or ahrefs. I'm not gonna tell you in public how to get them cheap but if you pm me I will shoot you the group buy I use (it's cheap).
I can't stress how important keyword research is. If you put the majority of your time just into the boring fucking art of finding good keywords, you'll barely need GSA to rank. Or you can give it a small "GSA spank" and you'll rank fairly quick.
Basically, you should target 10 keywords like that (5 minimum). In different niches. Get 1 campaign set up for each in GSA. Duplicate each campaign if your lazy (to add tiers). Then tier the campaigns. At least 2-3 tiers for each campaign.
Ideally, you want the first tier to have restrictions. So watch read / watch some GSA tuts about setting restrictions. Remember, you CAN use GSA on tier 1 if you use it right. I'd say that you should use GSA for tier 1 and not worry about penalties. Expect them. Your goal isn't to avoid penalties it's to learn how to rank with GSA. When you get that down then you can really tweak down your lists and restrictions. Just TRY to keep tier 1 as clean as you are capable of. Every other day those first couple weeks, I'd take 2-3 hours to manually spin an article for each campaign. That way I wasn't flooding my tier 1 with terribly spun shit.
On each tier reduce restrictions. So by tier 3 you're pumping out pure spam.
Try this on good keywords. Start with a decent amount of niche and put some work into this. You don't gotta slave away. But don't focus on just 1 niche. Follow the basics, get those campaigns going, increase your odds by consistently building links.
If you do this enough there will come a point where random keywords start ranking. Probably the last keywords you expected. Then you just keep it going, GSA will tell you what to do if you work with it enough.
