hello everyone , After recently making $1000 on azoogle using one of the methods posted here on BHW.I decided to start a new website for a product with Good sale commission. So i am sharing my experience for this new site which I have recently started so far. Purchased Domain name :keywordinfo.com Exact Traffic : 135,000 US searches. About 3,120,000 results (0.12 seconds) intitle:"Keyword" , competiton - 111,000 A little about the competition First 10 sites , Avg domain age 3 years. Most sites are about 1-2 years old. First site is wikipedia Second site having 17k links mostly on spammed buy viagra kindda sites , probably via scrapbox or xrummer. All other sites , have backlinks less than 7k in yahoo explorer. (I am still not sure how to determine exact competiton and how much i would need to get in top 3 results of google.(Learning).) So I registered the domain , on 16th of june. **Purchased free domain from 1and1 , hosted on hostgator. When i started the website, I copied the content mostly from other websites total of 5 pages.No CMS , static site with downloaded template from google.(I wasnt getting niche relevent wordpress theme.) I have heard and various method to get website listed in 4 hours and all.. So I did high pr link building , and with approx 300 high pr blog comments , I got the site listed in approx 24 hours. **Since There was continous link building so i am not sure how many exact links are needed to get site listed(I know there are various other factors involved ie type of links their pr **************** but i didnt kept track of these things.) This is a accomplishment for me, but i would love to beat that 4 hour record by someone here on BHW. No onsite seo done...One major mistake which i knowingly did was not to add description to the website.and my naviagtion was mostly default content of theme which i downloaded from the net. From 21th of june , i started doing white hat link building mostly high pr profile links and high pr blog comment but with very less spammy comments.(APprox40 OBL) I have 3 guys , doing full time link building for me..about 8-10 hours day 5 days a week. On an average they build about 150-300 links a day. I have been keeping track of links index in google and have added google Analytics to keep track of traffic which i am getting. On 29th June, I was on 722th position on google. Number of backlinks listed in yahoo 122. Number of backlinks listed in Google 0. On 7th June, I was on 486th position on google. Number of backlinks listed in yahoo - 432 Number of backlinks listed in Google 1 On 16th july, I was on 28th position on google. Number of backlinks listed in yahoo - 870 Number of backlinks listed in Google - 7 On 17th of July , I added a proper navigation and added description to the site. On 24th July I was on 14th position on Google.(2nd page) Number of backlinks listed in yahoo - 1600 Number of backlinks listed in Google -14 PS: There was google dancing everytime I moved up the search result usually about 4 places up or down. Total 667 visites so far 811 Page views 93.33 % new visits. let me know what you guys think , If you need more data let me know. Thanks Nix
This is great. I've just started a site and I am now where you were on the 19th of June (700 ... something position). You really gave me motivation. Keep up with the good work and keep us posted on your progress.
are you promoting anything? have you made any sales? How long are you into IM? sorry for double post, mods please delete my other post, thanks!
No I havnt started promoting anything , But i will once i reach first page...I have couple of affiliate sites in mind , Some even pay upto 50% of the sale amount. I am not getting very good traffic , you could say somewhere around 60-80 visitors per day on a average, Not bad...If i am in Top 3 searches , then i think i will get major share of traffic from that 135000 , atleast i hope to get so.

Yesterday , i started promoting a CPA offer $25 per lead...Guess what made $100.. I am loving it... Currently on second page of google , and my rank varies from 13to 18th position. i am thinking google is still not sure of my position on google.
LOL if he tells you offer then it will not be tough to find his niche and site... If he wanted to share it, he would have simply mentioned it in his post...
Thank you OP. You're about 4 weeks ahead of me and it's nice to read who, what and how. Could you tell me how much you are paying for the full-time backlinker? Would it suggest for me to monetize my site from the off? Or wait a while for traffic as you have explained? (At the moment, I've bought the domain names, building the site and writing the content to leak onto the site everyday but I want to have a bank of them first)
After a weeks time , my rankings are not increasing , on 2nd page 14 rank....I see a google dance from 11 to 15th place. I have updated , site description added more content so people stay atleast for 30 seconds on my site..with foum posting and comment building , i am getting good refferal traffic but traffic from keyword is not very high. I am getting about 20-60 unique visitors per day.I am enclosing my stats here. Traffic Sources overview Referring Sites 497.00 (62.67%) Search Engines 215.00 (27.11%) Direct Traffic 81.00 (10.21%) I am enclosing my traffic stats From 28th june to 4th august Site usage 845 visits 1,053 page views 1.25 pages /View 90.18%bounce rate average time 30 seconds 94.32 % new visits. My traffic is peaks , and is not consistent. This is a new site , and i can see spammed hubpage with 18k links indexed on top outranking wikipedia , and a recently ranked 2003 website with simialr blasted website ie , scrapbox or xrummer. I am tempted to do a small xrummer profile blast myself say 5k profiles...Should i do that or should i continue white hat...Consistent link building?? NIx
Thanks for the detailed website experiment. I love reading these. Please continue with the white hat approach to see if you get #1 without going to the dark side. Thx!
