Mike, Thanks for your comments. Traffic Kahuna seems to be closed to further members now, and I haven't checked Neurolinker yet. Linkvana seems okay, but how do we know for sure that the links are even active if no information is provided about the location of the blog posts? And wouldn't it be a simple case of searching for the blog post content that you write, to find its location anyway? The site I am working on promoting is 'white hat', and a quality site with the number of pages in the hundreds of thousands, but it is new, and therefore remains undiscovered by the masses at large. We are confident that the site would become popular naturally, but that takes time and we need to know how to speed that process up and create awareness. I'd be interested to know more about this other write up service you mentioned, because it would be something we would be looking at for creating the unique postings.
As I understand it, Jason Potash open the door to TK from time to time, I was on his list for about 2 weeks then I received the invitation, you might want to sign up for the list if you are interested. If I remember correctly, there used to be a free membership (to accept post from TK) and you will receive the invitation as well when the door is open but I don't have the info handy now. On the blog post for Linkvana, yes, you can search for them to find out exactly what are the URL. But that is different from publishing a list of URL to tell you exactly all the blogs in the network. Also, I think the users are being 'compartmentalize' to certain section of the blog network so that you are not able to access to all blog at any point of time. That doesn't mean it is 100% safe, but it makes it harder to bring the whole network down. I'm looking forward to checking out the site that you are promoting. On the write up service, they are just a few writers that I work with closely. Among other things, they are supplying me with constant material for Linkvana posting and they are very familiar with the posting requirement. I'm sure you can find similar writers here in DP, if you are clear on the requirement and providing them with constant stream of work, very soon they will be very proficient in whatever that you are them to do. Mike
I haven't used Linkvana, or Traffic Kahuna, but I have used Neurolinker. Neurolinker is very good, but not for long. I would have a site ranked in the first page for about 8 days, then it would go all the way back to the end of the line, and never rank again. The site wasn't "sandboxed" because all the pages, including the Index were still in the search engines. I don't know why it did this, but I'm thinking it's because of the PHP script you load on your site. Since I left Neurolinker, I have been purchasing links from TNX. If you spend like $75 a month, then you can get a huge amount of ranking increase and stay there for as long as you have the site linked. Here's the good thing: You can change your links whenever you want. So let's say you just want to get a domain name ranked for like a month, then once you make some money off it, then take it off the system and hook another site up. I've seen a substantial increase in my income, all due to being ranked almost number 1 for my keyword domains. Just some input...
Thats why Google hires engineers,and the rest make silly posts here trying to promote link spam sites that Google has in its targets. Natural links are the only links worth building....everything else just hurts your site and makes it even harder to get to the top of the results. Remember when someone says their site ranks well for their keywords... they are usually targeting something long tail... 4 to 5 word phrases which nobody wants to gain SEO results for.
I saw you has the last reply on this thread and was wondering what you would say about it. Good advice, what I expected.
Not sure if I understand what you meant....Is submitting articles to article directories consider as link spam? Linkvana is a tool that help you to post your blog post to established blog, that way you get the backlink naturally. Of course you can do the same by contacting the blog sites manually, but that might not be the best use of your time. It is a tool that help you to do that easily. Personally I don't see that as link spam. I managed to get to the 1st page ranking for 2 to 4 keywords phrase, I'm sure you understand that the key is not how long but how much competition. For example, trying to rank for "Make Money Online" on 1st google, it will be a very difficult task as the competition is extremely high (12million in quotes in google), try "buy used trucks", it is about 17000 of competition. Both are 3 words phrase, you can outrank the "buy used trucks" keywords easily if you used the right tools, and Linkvana is one of them. My experience told me for anything less than 40000 competition (in quotes in google), you can be on the first page of google if you do the right "On Page SEO" and use Linkvana properly. Just my 2 cents worth (not intend to discredit anyone, just sharing my experience). Mike
Yes submitting to 100s of articles sites is submitting duplicate content basically. There is the arguement that it builds link and sends traffic but the link quality is low and visitor numbers incremental and nothing that would support a business, but again its an arguement. Next the numbers you are speaking of are competing pages, and these have no bearing on how well you can rank. Doing a search without quotes returns the number of pages with the keywords located anywhere on the page. Using "quotation marks" shows the number of pages with the keywords together on the page. While this does show which pages are using the term together on the page and eliminates those that don't it really is not an indicator of competition level. I know SEO kind of well . I SEO using the same techniques I did 4 years ago and the sites I did SEO for 4+ years ago still rank at number 1 for their keywords.....so I think I understand it... Funny thing is I never has to use a link scheme to get 1000s of keywords in top 3 results..
Congratulation on that! Just to be clear, I'm not discrediting your knowledge. I just wanted to point out my result using Linkvana. Fully understand that..What I'm pointing out is that in real world application of Linkvana, I'm only seeing 1st page result for competition in quotes for less than 40000 results. I understand your point above is not about Linkvana, I just wanted to to be clear in case anyone wondering...Linkvana only accept unique posts, the quality system is setup in such a away human will review each post and if you try to post a duplicate content or spun articles, they will be rejected. Again, doesn't mean to discredit your achievement, in fact, I'm happy for you..I guess it comes down to how much time you are willing to spend in building high quality backlinks especially if you have a large number of websites to optimize, Linkvana provides one of the tools that you can consider. By no mean you can't use it with other method, it is an autopilot systems once you submitted the unique contents, Linkvana will only drip feed them in small numbers per day so that it is natural. Mike
Well you have given me food for thought....I will admit link building is not as much work as many seem to think it is...link baiting works well when done right. Having another resource can't hurt either... Thank you for the well thought out reply, very rare here at DP when 95% are mostly one line responses that often lack any relevancy to the discussion at hand.
Folks, Neurolinker works fine if you stay with it a few months and use it properly. Just check out the Neurolinker homepage and you'll see testimonials of people who have been with Neurolinker from the beginning, ie 3 1/2 months ago. Then check their website pageranks and check their backlinks on Yahoo Site Explorer. They all have good pagerank and good numbers of links. The folks with the most links and best results are the folks who have also written and submitted some articles into the system using the built in article spinner to post unique content on other websites, and who have used the built in collaborative social bookmarking system. I don't know who YoungWealthRevolution or Mike_f are, but "Young" must have gotten pretty impatient and left pretty quickly, since again Neurolinker is all of 3 1/2 months old. It has almost 500 users and is just short of 2000 websites. Will Neurolinker get your website to page 1 of Google for any keyword? No, nothing will unless you get pretty lucky with some long tail keywords. But it WILL give you backlinks, better PR and better search engine position over time. I checked my user database and have never had a user named Mike or Michael or even M* whose last name started with F. And oh, by the way, paying for links thru TNX or any other such site is a great way to get it banned. http://www.monetizeguru.com/2008/03/28/tnx-sucks/ http://www.searchenginegenie.com/seo-blog/2008/05/tnxnet-banned-from-google.html http://bloggingfingers.com/blog-marketing/google-bans-tnx-link-buyers-it-happened-to-me/ http://www.bloggeries.com/forum/news/4831-tnx-net-appears-banned-google.html + plenty more links you can find easily I see that the sites in YoungWealthRevolution's signature all have PR0. I'm happy to respond to any questions. Marc Ilgen Neurolinker.com
http://1waylinks.net/ is another which I am testing out... a lot of blogs... not sure how effective this system is yet.
Two things I want to clear up in regard to LinkVana #1 You WILL NOT lose your links if you cancel your membership... The Links are permanent #2 The $147.00 per month membership is Not Expensive when you consider what it will do to your Bottom Line I have been using LinkVana for about 4 months now and have propelled several websites, EzineArticles and squidoo Lenses to the top of the results, which in turn has quadrupled my earnings As far as I'm concerned, the membership fee is a "Drop-in-the-Bucket" compared to the extra income LinkVana has helped to generate. I have also introduced LinkVana to my fellow Members over at Wealthy Affiliate, and those that have signed up are also experiencing great success. Personally I think LinVana is worth far more.
I'm considering using LinkVana but it's a huge investment. The site I want to use it on has articles from free article sites - so they've probably been picked up and used elsewhere on the net. Do you think LinkVana will accept this type of content?
I buy Backlinks from these BacklinkS.com LinkSRank.com Just want only anchor text links for my seo website and pay for renew links monthly
