Hi Everyone

Am enjoying reading this thread. I am thinking of purchasing automation software. I have been advised that SEnuke is good but complicated to use whilst Brute Force SEO Evo II is easy to use but can be tempremental and glitchy.

Has anyone any experience of using either and if so would you suggest purchasing or is it better to do backlinks by hand.

Many Thanks

Zoomamonty

Generally speaking it’s really not hard to rank well with the search engines as long as you aren’t jumping into a crazy competitive market.

For the noobs that are struggling to get their site to the first page, here’s a few tips I’ve learned so far that has worked well for me…

First thing’s first. If you are lazy and boring, you won’t do well no matter how many backlinks you build and or how much darn traffic you get. As cliched as it may be…content is KING!!!!!

The best strategy starts from the beginning. It’s kind of like a game of chess.

You can purchase domains that already have a page rank of 2 or 3,even if it is a dot org or whatever. This will give you a nice little jump start before you go building links to your new site like a crazy person. It’s always worth a shot to see what domains are available and if they have page rank already. If not, oh well.

Finding low competition relevant keywords and long tail phrases that get at least 2000 hpm should be your next step. Be sure to double check them in the search engines. I never fully trust Adwords’ data and I always double check by doing a quick search.

There are some paid tools you can use that will narrow down your relevant keywords but the human mind is way better at figuring out what other human minds are thinking when they type in a keyphrase.

The next thing I’ll do is see what my competition (First 5 on page 1) is doing to get ranked for that particular keyword or phrase by checking their PR and backlinks with free tools. Although backlink checkers won’t show all backlinks, you can use two or three different free backlink tools to get a rough idea.

There’s no need wasting your time if your competition has 50-60 high PR backlinks going to that particular page/post. It’s time to move along to another keyword, or another niche in some cases. I’ve found that many folks will only have 10-20 mixed PR backlinks pointing to a particular page/post in many low competition niches and they will rank well for their keyword/phrase. Again, YMMV depending on your niche.

Don’t forget to bookmark them posts/pages! Every post or page you create should be bookmarked, if possible. I will mix up which sites I post on as well as the descriptions just so there’s never an even number of bookmarks on all my articles. I’ve found that sites like Jumptags, Propeller, Digg, Reddit, Stumbleupon, etc. will give some pretty good results. I’ve had a few articles jump to the top of page 1 just by posting on these social bookmarking sites.

Though I try to leave my links on relevant niche blogs and boards, I don’t think search engines are as discerning as some folks let on. I’d much rather have a few PR8 sites linking to me that aren’t exactly in my niche than a ton of worthless 0-1 PR links that are.

Use the free Google page rank checker to rate blogs/forums before wasting your time commenting and leaving links. Quality is far superior to quantity (another cheesy cliche) lol. Heck, most everything you need to get your site ranked high is available for free. You just need to use your brain and quit worrying so much about automating everything. The world is becoming too lazy and everyone seems to want someone else to do all their work. This is is why there is all that spam and spun crap floating around out there. More and more links are getting stripped form comment style blogs and many forums are disabling registrations and stripping coding from sigs and whatnot because of all the lazy people.

Don’t get me wrong, automation is great. Set and forget is total BS. Don’t buy into all that get rich by spending 15 minutes a month on your site crap. You get what you put into it. If you forget about it, so will everyone else. You got to pull your weight in this game. No tool or program is going to make you rich. Don’t waste your money on article spinners that need complete overhauls because they sense no make. lol Use your head and all this great free information that is available at the tip of your fingers.

Investing in quality written articles is always best if you must go with freelancing services. A $5 article is just that. A cheap article that doesn’t contribute a whole lot to your site, IMO. Many of the better articles will run you about $10. You get what you pay for in this case. You can join Article Marketing Automation for free if you just want some filler content on a supporting site. You will need WP or other platforms that support API if you go this route.

Well that’s about it. Don’t be lazy. haha

Hope this long azz post helps at least one noob. I’ll sleep so much better at night knowing that I touched at least one person. :laugh: lolz

Thank you for such an exhaustive and informative post.

I agree with you that CONTENT is King. But at the end of the day, the best content on the net won’t be any good if people cannot find it. You need both GOOD content and traffic .

Well no, a link from a site relevant to yours is ranked much better by Google than a link from a site that has nothing to do with yours. It’s about how Google ranks the link, it’s not that it won’t see it.

If you download seo spyglass (it’s free. google it and you’ll find it) it tells you the value of each link. One relevant link that has PR1 weighs more than 10 irrelevant links that have PR1 too.

I’ve also used another High PR site called “Wetpaint”. It is similar to HubPages and achieves the same result. Worth a look.

My backlink strategy is to focus on articles, forums, and blogs. However, I think that the key lies in posting original, high quality content that adds value to the reader

directory submision is a good option, just try the free ones at start then go for paied, out sourcing is also a good choice you can have 20/day posting, now choice is yours where you feel more comfortable

Yes, indeed diversification is the best way. This also gives a natural way on your link building process.

Speaking of diversification. My signature just got removed by joomlart I THINK. Was hoping to advertise my site a little while I accumulate enough credit to redeem a JA membership. Now they have all become broken links. That is the reason why diversification is important. Imagine you have 1000 links coming from one site and BOOM, all gone overnight when anything happens. That would hurt a lot. Never put all your eggs in one basket 🙂

Hey Zoomamonty,

I have SeNuke and use it 2-3 times per week.

Like any tool, you need to know how to use it and you normally need more software to use it best.

If you are posting to any site to get links back you want to make the post unique. You can do this using a tool called TheBestSpinner. This will spin your articles to make them unique.

Then I also add images in multiple places as well as some line breaks using html.

This not only means the content is different, it also starts to get the layout of the page different, which shows any robot that it is unique.

And remember to always change up your link text. You need to try and make it look normal.

Also, one last thing, I will spend about 1-2hrs just setting up the articles before posting to the web2.0 sites. Then prob 1 hr posting, bookmarking & rss feeding them. But it is worth the effort.

Cheers
Justin

One of the best things I have found is to write an original piece of software as freeware include your links within it then submit this to all of the software directories gradually.

I’m sure that is a good idea, I myself have thought of it, but really it’s beyond my capabilities and I doubt I will have enough time to learn that… unless we pay someone to create freeware and give it away for free?

That would be devastating. And yes indeed never put all your eggs in one basket. Might lose a lot of money in the long run. Even big Google could be the cause after a Algorithm change, so it’s best to diversify your link building.
