Link Development for SEO Firms & Consultants (Their Customers)

Discussion in 'Link Development' started by fathom, Oct 9, 2008.

    As a successful SEO you well understand that every customer's organic search engine optimization strategy relies heavily on you completing a task of gaining quality backlinks to the customer’s website.

    Obtaining quality links can be a costly affair in both people hours and revenue and even after you afford both to the effort many acquired links may still not be of much use to enhance the customers’ strategy.

    This is the reason that Catch ‘n Re-Lease Me was conceived.

    Catch 'n Re-Lease Me’s overall objectives fall into 5 categories:

    • Provide better linking opportunities where every link has its own link juice credentials – if and when it doesn’t we replace it.
    • Provide better “matched content” to a website’s topics for additional and more pronounced “linking opportunities”
    • Create superb viral content using rich media to enhance the previously noted "matched content” to customers’ websites’ topics for excessive quality in “linking opportunities” and in doing so provide additional direct traffic to the targeted website.
    • To pool financial resources of interested parties creating collective bargaining power.
    • To educate interest parties to replicate this strategy under multiple and independent circles of influence to reduce the risk being seen as a manipulative strategy. Circles of influences are regionally based to gain value from local search.
    Catch ‘n Re-Lease Me believes it can do more with less and in a shorter period than any single SEO working alone because we have collective bargaining power. In fact, we are so confident that our strategy works within “days” we GAURANTEE our linking services to you… a customer will gain top 10 results in Google in 30 days or less on at least 50% of the targeted terms being promoted or you don’t pay until they do.

    It's highly likely that not every single domain you or we will encounter can be ranked top 10 inside 30 days for every possible term someone can come with but that's the value of collective bargaining... most strategies over "90 percent" of all strategies can gain 50% of their strategy terms inside 30 days - and the law of averages suggests that as we grow and put more resources towards each strategy we can easy achieve higher percentages of results over time.

    How This Works

    • A SEO signs up with a customer’s domain.
      • So long as the SEO maintains at least 1 customer in this strategy their SEO website is done for free.
    • Month 1 – Catch ‘n Re-Lease Me provide links from general interest blogs (as per http://www.catchnrelease.me/general-domains/)
      • Approximately 20 domains with solid quality links to themselves link to the customer domain (1 homepage anchored link and 5-9 deeplinks)
      • The customer must provide the copy for these profile pages
      • The impact of this is usually ranked results in as little as 24 hours in Google, but usually 5-15 days – thus we double that usual value and guarantee 50% of an initial 10 terms
    i. Assumes no delay in content being provided
    ii. CAVEAT – general domains offer a phenomenal initial impact on Google ordered results in but a few days but they usually don’t have the “staying power”… normally ranks will begin to slide in results in a month or 2 if this is the only step implemented… thus month 2 developments complement the continuation of general domain links
    • Month 2 – In addition with the continuation of general link developments Catch n Re-Lease Me starts providing more targeted “theme domains” to the customer
      • Theme domains have targeted “on topic” content provided and the customer gain text links in the posted information to a maximum number of links need to cover all important pages of their domain.
      • Because these domains are immediately associated with the customer’s topic banner adverts are also provided in these domain for direct traffic referrals
      • Theme domains will ultimately be Catch ‘n Re-Lease Me main features as these domains are topic specific and significantly focused to garner “linkbait” in the form of rich media interactions in association with the scope of the domains topics
    i. Increasing the value to the customer receiving links from this development
    • Month 3 - In addition to the continuation of general link developments and theme domain developments Catch n Re-Lease Me starts brainstorming for targeted linkbait to be displayed on “theme domains”
      • This is where the initial content provided by the customer in Month 1 comes in handy – it can assist the rich media development team in identifying topical areas the customer is interested in and they brainstorm to deliver a storyboard for multiple
      • Inclusive in the storyboard for all rich media developments are targeted adverts for the associated customer
    • Month 4 - In addition to the continuation of general link developments and theme domain developments Catch n Re-Lease Me starts the development on the rich media project for targeted linkbait to be displayed on “theme domains”
      • Most often these projects can be completed in a month or less
    • Month 5 - In addition to the continuation of general link developments and theme domain developments Catch n Re-Lease Me implements the rich media project onto the targeted theme domains
      • This then is where the SEO can assist Catch ‘n Re-Lease Me in developing exposure for the linkbait through social bookmark sites, associated industry forums, blogs, and journals.
      • Within 5 months the customer’s strategy is absolutely secured and along with its ranks, and your credibility.
    SEO Specifics

    Catch ‘n Re-Lease Me isn’t a replacement strategy for doing SEO, it’s complementary to doing the on-page/site best practices “edits.

    Our services are your services. In fact, we only desire SEO firms and consultants to be able to sign customers up to Catch ‘n Re-Lease Me.

    We need to be able to work with people that already grasp the basics in SEO and link development and this is one reason our performances can categorically beat any other SEO firm’s not implementing our developments. We don't get bogged down with the "little stuff".

    In fact our worse performance to date is extremely “eye-opening”. NO SEO has “optimized” this domain… we asked the customer to edit their title element and that was it.

    We started September 1, and within 14 days they were in the top 30 results against the likes of Yahoo and other search engines.

    To view please PM - will not show confidential information/results in public

    If this is our worst and without any onsite optimization to speak of, imagine how remarkable you will be to your average customer that doesn’t compete against hundreds of millions or “billions” of other web pages.

    Our fees are modestly priced based on the minimum that we must have to achieve a consistent success rate through collective revenue sharing and bargaining.

    That is $500/month/theme – a theme implies up to 10 customers in any common topical area e.g. real estate agents. The first customer in any theme is the most expensive but once resources are developed the cost is negligible to repeat for a second customer and thereafter.

    A “theme” can also represent a collection of complementary domains e.g. a wedding dress shop, tuxedo rental shop, engagement ring store, or wedding favors… each of these domains can be “linked” from the same theme domains that are related in some fashion such as the occasion of a “wedding”.

    For more information please review: http://www.catchnrelease.me/tackleshop/

    We are still working out the bugs in our toll free system (if in Canada or USA you can call toll free). If you wish to speak to a representative and you are in one of these countries:

    The fact that you are openly publishing the links of the sites participating in this scheme, would make it dangerous to use on your own site, and suicidal to use a on a clients.

    That depends. What are shown are samples... if and when Google decides to kill these off - no problem they are merely an introductory offer if you will... they are not the main feature of the package... nor the benefit.

    The links themselves are free... members pay for linkbait development which make these domains that much more trusted and links that much more valuable... surely if the links to domains are all "natural" I don't see how links leaving are worse off... The fact that Yahoo openly publishes their "reviews" on all their regional makes an equally predictable suicide... that as I understand is yet to occur...

    I'm not Google, but Google suggests linkbait is good and I offer an inexpensive service for that... the service improves exposure of customers and the primary product "isn't a link"... the link is a feature of the service... as such I believe you're much more wrong than right.

    If fact, we are so confident that our strategy works within “days” we GAURANTEE our linking services to you… a customer will gain top 10 results in Google in 30 days or less on at least 50% of the targeted terms being promoted or you don’t pay until they do.

    hmmm... please explain... I shouldn't promote other companies because it cheap tactics... or they shouldn't use me because it looks cheap?

    ...Either way I don't think it's better to be ranked deep in results... but I could be wrong.

    You're only going to attract the wrong customers with that. How are you going to rank a bunch of indian spam sites on blogger subdomains for viagra and credit cards?

    ...I haven't attracted any yet... is there a special way to attract them that I'm not doing right... you sound like a residental expert in this area - care to enlighten me?

    If you are selling linkbait services then I fail to see how Google is going to target you, though I suppose they could.

    Okay I apologise for not going into more detail in my last post.

    From the original post and looking at your site, it looks to me that you are posting links of blogs participating in the scheme (even if you aren't, its what it looks like that counts).

    So any legit SEO working on clients sites, or people working on their own sites of value, would be well served to steer clear of this.

    The only people who would be interested in high risk tactics, are people with low quality, throwaway sites - the exact type that you are not going to be able to rank and will have to refund.

    I would advice to work on your sales pitch a little - its confusing. Your original post goes on about guaranteed results in 30 days, but then later on it outlines a month by month plan for 5 months. I can also see mentions of 24 hours, 5-15 days, within 14 days. You are seriously confusing people - remember the people you should be pitching this to are trying to get their sites to the top of Google and are not proper webmasters, they don't undertand all these terms and numbers. The fastest way to get your email deleted is make it incomprehensible to them.

    If you are targeting this at people who already understand it and know what they are doing, then you are targeting the wrong people as nobody is going to pay you to riskily do what they can do themselves under the radar.

    Print out your original post, and show it to your girlfriend/mum/dad or anyone who does not work in seo, doesn't know what Google Analytics are and aren't a member of a webmaster forum. I would bet they have absolutely no idea what the post is talking about. Then get some feedback from them how to improve it. I regularly use this method to work things through - if my gran can understand it and my dad can place an order, then I've got a fair idea that I'm good to go with the general public.


    edit- I would put some sort of quality control over what sites you can and can't rank. If John Chow comes along and says rank my site for my name, you can't do it as he's been penalised already. You can never win with a customer like that, so why spend time and money trying?

    Well OK what makes something a "scheme" that should be avoided and what makes something a valuable service?

    Why? Are free links bad?

    I'm of the belief "links to you cannot harm you"...

    What's so bad about this that causes you to be so concern about others?

    Well I guess you need to educate me on high risk tactics... because I'm of belief "links to you cannot harm you"... and if true I don't see any risk.

    The opening post noted 20 domains that link to websites just like a billion other websites... there isn't anything "shady" and frankly no one with "low quality, throwaway sites" is going to waste $500/month on anything... so if what you say is true and no SEO in their right mind would be interested - I guess I don't need to worry about refunds.

    Good point and why I posted.

    I'm not following... the 30 day guarantee is to see performance... but strategy is to produce better links due to linkbait on the domains linking to you... but linkbait can't be provided at day one for every potential topic "it takes time to develop" thus a 5 month plan... since no one will pay and wait for 5 months to get something... we offer the domains link for absolutely nothing and because these are not "low quality domains" they create return near immediately... if that's "risk" I'd love to know what you call "a sure thing".

    The guarnatee is 30 days and we are confident in the number because we have had others gain top 10 in as little as 24 hours, but usually 5 - 15 days... as such to cover my ass a bit more I double the "usual turnaround" and say 30 days... maybe it doesn't read like that... I re-visit it.

    hmmm... this is a forum - I didn't email you or anyone else... IMHO you should take your own point - you're engaging me in dialogue "even when you suggest this is incomprehensible" to others so from this example - it does work!

    Again... your preceived risk isn't realized risk.

    In general, you can get links from blogs - no problem

    You can get links from article sites - no problem

    You can get links from directories - no problem

    In general "none" of these are "risky" developments... so your "preceived risk" must be in the way I have aggregated them on a single page... and I don't buy that. You can aggregate links to [example only] directories in a single category page in DMOZ and that isn't risky... so what "precisely" are you driving at?

    Please don't speculate... show me.

    Great point - I think faster than I type and can't proof my own work.

    Be that as it may - it's the rational for working only with SEOs. I'm not guaranteeing ranks for clients I'm guaranteeing a service to SEOs. If John Chow hired a SEO and the SEO didn't know the site was penalized... it's take me only a few days to determine that, help them sus out the problem, ask for a re-inclusion, and now John Chow is listed...

    ...why spend time & money on that... because John Chow doesn't hire every SEO and John Chow isn't the only customer of any SEO... law of averages suggests "IF" I can help a SEO in trouble that SEO will save me time and money well into the future.

    That's offered "for free"... Is that a bad thing?

    I'm not even going to pretend I read your sales pitch.

    But..

    You're guaranteeing me Top 10 positions on the word "poker" within 30 days? Sign me up.

    I didn't say that, did I?

    If you're not a SEO - you can't join with any guarantee.

    If you signed on with a SEO, your SEO likely has a realistic plan for you and charged you accordingly... and I will help them and gauarantee my services to them... not you!
