No discount code as far as I know of for BHW specifically. If you signed up for the free trial and never bought they do let you know about discounts they got running every once in a while.

I already bought it myself quite a while back but only because I make enough that I can afford it just for the convenience. If I was you I would just keep getting the updates from the downloads section and save my money for something else.

if you are not making money that means you are not getting enough traffic. no matter how you look at it, traffic = money. whether you are selling a clickbank product, putting up google adsense, or just sell your sites on flippa, you will make money if you are getting lots of traffic. if you aren't getting traffic, either you need to pick better keywords or you need to build more backlinks. once you have picked good keywords, and then have built lots of backlinks to your site using those keywords, money will come.

I get what you are trying to say but it just sounds wrong when I read it. I get the impression that this problem is somehow beneath you. If I'm wrong, then I'm wrong but if you think you know something that you are somehow better than anyone else you are dead wrong.

This is a BH forum, yeah BH SEO to be specific but there are tons of us here that make more money than surgeons without getting a single real visitor to our sites. Oh and we don't need to ever build any backlinks either or do any serious keyword research.

Your description of making money online is so cut-and-dry its obvious what you could never know about the darker side of things. No offense, unless you were acting like a punk and deserve it.

so iv been messing around with scrapebox. i found some free proxies, but seems like these proxies just dont load up the pages... should i invest on some share proxies? or private ones? whats ur insight on those?

iv also tried searching the forum for some free ones, but i still get the same problems.

Click to expand...

Look harder. Yeah I bought some private proxies for ScrapeBox but you can definitely get away without it. Its not that private proxies are anything special or magically that will make money. Its just a convenience issue again. Private proxies are WAY faster and require less maintenance but they do the same thing as public proxies.

Check out some proxy specific forums if you still have no luck. Really, the public proxies work fine.

Jr VIP, $97...
Can of pop, $1
2 Chocolate bars, $2
Reading BHW & eating food, priceless!

Hint: Yes, that was a copy from the Visa/Mastercard commercial

BHW Jr VIP is more like a bonus for donors. You can post stuff that you don't want the masses to see and you can discuss some stuff that you couldn't really in the open forum here but if anyone thinks Jr VIP is the "magic bullet" you are just dreaming another dream like with every other thing in IM.

Nothing again Jr VIP, just don't think that its the magic bullet that newbs always think it is. They go crazy trying to meet the minimum requirements to get in and I bet its the same thing as here. They create a bunch of help me threads or how do I make $XXX/day?

Actually, I think its about time for me to jump on the Jr VIP bandwagon. I'll sign up as soon as my BST thread gets the approval.

Scrapebox without private proxies is like running a car on alcohol - really bad results.

Take your $100 and pay for 1 month of 20 private proxies and buy TheBestSpinner and you have everything you need to succeed.

Use Google to guide you with all their wonderful tools and they are free.

Best of luck...

Exaggeration. Private proxies really unlock ScrapeBox if you have been using public proxies the whole time but they don't do anything different. Its just convenient because you don't have to keep testing so many proxies all the time.

If it was me starting over again,

I would decide on your business model firstly...

I recommend the niche site marketing biz model, as you are building sites that not only will create their own revenue stream, but also become assets in the long term, which means you are actually building real wealth for the future.

Basically I would do this:

1. Get the free trial of Market samurai

2. choose any general niche idea, brainstorm for 1/2 hour if you need, and build a list of seed keywords (any terms here you don't understand you can google for)

3. put them into MS, and let it find you 800 related keywords, then analyze those keywords, and filter them so that you have Exact match SEOT matching or above 50 per day, SEOTC below 2000

4. get an adsense account, amazon account, etc, depending on what niche opportunities you discover (adsense is the easiest to monetize non product niches)

5. buy as many .info domains as you can, 1 for each great low comp, good traffic keyword you can find. eg, if your keyword was "the best digital camera to buy", you would purchase thebestdigitalcameratobuy.info (i recommend namecheap registry)

6. start writing articles, choose the top 4+ keywords related to your site with similar good traffic, low comp attributes
each keyword will become the main focus of an article, aim for 4-500 words, and keyword density around 1%.

7. get a baby package at hostgator hosting, you can get the first month for like 1c, and then it's $10 per month

8. install wordpress on the root of each new domain you have bought, making the name of the site the main keyword, the keyword in the description, etc (you can read up on info here on how to best optimize your wordpress blogs, which plugins to use, etc.

9. then make each article a page on your blog, the main keyword article will be a post for your index. (use BM keyword link plugin, and link all your target keywords back to the index as do follow)

10. start link building (again, tons of good info on here on SEO and link building)

That's it, it's a proven business model, and if you do it you will start accruing money from your successful sites (not all sites are winners)

I have been doing this for 2 years now, and the income keeps building the more sites you get out there..

Take action!

Hahaha, proven business model. Funny. Try ranking for create my own website using the exact method you mentioned. Not going to happen. It fits without your restraints, SEOT: 250 SEOTC: 905, and quite well. The keyword's statistics are 5 times greater than your minimum SEOT requirement and less than half your maximum SEOTC requirement. According to your numbers you would consider it a goldmine.

This is why you shouldn't rely on the keyword research data for competition. If you looked at the SEO competition module you'll easily see that any new blog is already working an uphill battle.

Its not impossible, probably take me 8 weeks with a new blog but I have a ton of black hat resources at my disposal and I really know how to use them well whereas the "proven business model" and techniques you mentioned will only result in frustration and possibly even giving up altogether.

I also think that .info is a waste of time and money. If you can't shell out a couple of extra bucks for a .com you have no business being in IM. Yeah, they rank fine for some keywords and you could get away with using them on some micro niche sites but there will be a time when you will be up against some real competition if you want to really live. I've done extensive research and experimentation and can say that .info just doesn't cut it.

I've lined up a .info and .com with the exact match term for each. After three months of attacking industry giants my .com broke into the top 5 (to this date I am still 4, never been higher) whereas my .info has yet to get make it onto the fifth page of results.

Anyways, I'm done with this thread. Hope I helped someone. Best of luck everyone.

Hello mad hat,


although slightly negative, you have some valid points, I did originally forget to add to check the SEO competition using MS aswell, just to be sure that it's not going to be too hard to bother, but in my experience, quite often when SEOTC is low, it means that the means that that keyword is usually pretty wide open.

I also forgot to mention that you would need to check that these domains have not already been taken, even if the .info was available, if the .com, .org, and .net are taken, then it may be tough competing

Both of these steps have now been added..

You're probably pretty right about .infos being weaker in terms of SEO too, from my experience they do take more work to develop (more links + longer campaigns) but hey, the dude is on a limited budget obviously, so I was talking about what I consider the best approach for someone with virtually no capitital...

anyway, not going to argue mate, lol, it works for me, and will continue to do so, just trying to help the dude who's starting out with little capital to invest..

A great discussion here guys.

@mad.hat
For a member who has yet to say thanks to anyone,
please do not hold back who you really feel
(although as nicke has said, everyone has their own view, and
your obvious knowledge, skillsset and comments will no doubt
help the OP and other members here reading this thread.

@NickE83
I totally get your point about trying to get the OP on the right footing,
because if his foundation is strong, then he will be able to develop
skills and mindset to progress.

@nobis8713
Use the info and advice that has been given to you in this thread, and
yes, do your research etc... but also do not forget the fundamental
aspect of taking action. Remember taking imperfect action is always way better than taking no action at all, and to keep on "reading about stuff".

I actually think that you might stand a chance of success,
not least because of your coherent understanding of how it all works.
Please come back and share your methods / tips / tricks to BHW,
once success beckons, and think about this thread, and the many excellent comments
which members have made to you in good faith.
Once again, all the hairy best!!!

Note: mad.hat does have a valid point about .info domains, they are weaker in SERPS, but again, I was just relating this info to you based on the fact you have a minimal amount of funds. I would always go with .org as #1 choice, .com #2, and .net as #3 choice, in terms of SERPS power.

.org as your first choice? explain please...

I apologize if this is a dumb question... But I noticed with MS you can easily (extremely fast) find and publish content to your wordpress blog...

Would it be helpful to just pull a ton of different articles from ezine, etc... and republish them. Or will only unique fresh articles help?

Thanks!
