Hi, so I'm 17 years old and I plan on majoring in some type of business field when I go to college. I am not completely sure what I want to specifically major in though so thus, as a result, I decided I will dabble in Internet Marketing in order to "test the waters" to see whether or not it's for me. Clearly, I am a complete newb but I have been lurking around this forum and WF (alongside various other websites) for roughly maybe close to a month to a month and a half to learn as much as I can. Apparently, it seems that due to Google algorithms, I must maintain a wide diversity of back-links in order to avoid being penalized. I already hired a website designer to create my niche/blog for me (it will have 9 articles, each with a long tail keyword) and it will be ready around 8/27/2012. In the meantime, I am looking to see what is the best way to optimize my off-page SEO. After lurking around the Services thread for quite awhile and digging around for the most affordable services, these are the services I decided I want to use. I will list in which services I want to use over the course of two months. Since I can not link the URL directly, I will just simply give a small description of what I will purchase and the name of the service or the guy who runs it.
Month One:
Social Bookmarking (Right Back-links): I will take the 45$ special package which gives me 2500 PR 1-8 bookmarks and split it up amongst all my pages. I think I would most likely have somewhere between 250-400 bookmarks per page. I am not sure as to how many bookmarks would be considered "excessive", please advise.
Directory Submissions (seomerelin): I have been suggested to take the slow-drip method of 5500 submissions over the course of 30 days. This will cost me 25$.
Diversity (Search Engine Rockstar): I will be using package two which gives me:
[FONT=&]*75.EDU backlinks
*200 High PR Blog Comments (PR 1-4)
*3 Articles spun and submitted to 3,000 Article directories with a minimum of *400* livelinks!
*50 Web 2.0 Properties
*35 Web 2.0 Profiles
*100 Google Plus +1 (no report)
*50 Social Bookmarks
*300 Forum Profile Links
[/FONT]
This is to mostly round-out my back-links. This will cost me 34$.
General Back-links (Puppy Box): So far, it seems like the OP is gone but if he comes back, I am contemplating to purchase this. It seems like a generally good deal but I am not so sure if it would be a good idea since 10,000 back-links seem excessive for a brand new site. Cost is 5$.
Total Cost: 109$
This will only be necessary if I do not achieve first page within the first month. I don't expect it to be too hard though since it's relatively low competition.
Month Two:
Wiki Back-links (Links Tonic) : I will take package 4 for 17$ which gives me 8,000 back-links and 70,000 comments which costs an addition 25$. Total cost is 42$.
Yahoo Back-links (secondeye): I will take the buy 2 and get 1 free deal for 40$. It will be a total of 900 Yahoo back-links.
.Edu Back-links (sweetguyzzz): I will use the 28$ special bundle. I get 25 EDU and GOV profiles along with 75 back-links.
Competitor's Back-links (35dollarseo): I found this one to be unusually interesting. I have not seen another service like this yet. I am considering to get this since it can't really hurt to use your competitor's back-links too right? Cost is 35$.
Total Cost: 135$
Overall, it will cost me close to 250$ just to increase my rankings. Including my website production costs, it will have cost me a total of close to 400$. However, I find it a small risk anyway because of the potential niches can bring in. Even if I don't make considerable amounts of money, I at least have a extra-curricular I can use for my college transcript. Please leave your feedback as to whether or not you guys would think this combination of services would be effective for me or not. I will edit this if I see that I wish to change services or add one. I may also decide to do a combination of these services in a different order. Thanks in advance for your input
