So You Want To Be A Google Whore?

Recently I had a discussion with Josh, who wants to be a Google Whore. Josh got in touch with me with a PM at Digital Point forums. He asked how I was able to start a new site (Laptop Gamers) and have it make money from day 1, while he has put up 44 sites and can barely make anything.

This is my answer.

 

Ah nice, very good read. Thank you

 

Maybe "Josh" fubarred it because he did the amateur mistake -- make a ton of useless sites and expected to become a millionaire in a few days, and when that didn't happen, he gave up and started emailing (and making posts on forums) about why he isn't a millionaire yet. That's the primary problem with most people trying to "make it" in this Google game -- they have no patience whatsoever.

 

Thanks Moto for writing a detailed description on your "secret" of success!

It is ingenious and simple, yet it is a strategy I wouldn't have easily thought about.

I noticed how you commented on free article services... Would you still consider article sites a great place to send your articles for your site's promotion only? (And not use the free articles by other people on your website?)

 

Very nice whore! Damn you look so hyped up and post like it to. I'm jealous Jackie Chan, you smart chinese sob's!

 

Thank you for this information. I will review it and absorbe all that I can.

 

Why would you want to send your articles to an article sites? It is your unique content and now you want to make it public domain? If your content is good, don't submit it. Post it on your site and have news site in your field write about what a great article you produced and link back to you.

I would never dream of sending any of the articles/review I did at The TechZone to a free article service. That is a not the smartest way to get links IMO. Most of the sites that use free article have zero page rank and you'll destroy the value of your article because of dupe content.

 

Moto, the link seems to be down. I would enjoy reading your info.

Regards,

Mike

 

It was working just a few hours ago... could have been slashdotted from all the sudden visits?

Wow Moto, You've got such strong views about protecting your content. You have a point. I recently submitted articles to a free articles website - I did get some clickthrus to my site and still do... but it is minimal. Nothing to get too excited about.

I did a google search for where my articles were - and you're right - the majority of them end up in 0 pr webpages and the totally abuse your content - they put ads all over it and some of the websites are horrendous made for adsense. I can't be bothered following up on the Terms of republishing... could mean a strategy about face for me.

When your article ends up in an article dump with other articles that are basically writing the same stuff you are writing, even targetting the same keywords - it becomes an uneffective way of promoting your website.

Anyway, I'll still do it a few more times - have a look at the numbers of traffic the articles bring through and then i'll try out your methodology.

Cheers!

 

Yes it's down and laptopgamers.com too

 

it is back up now.

Just one question... How do you go about wording an e-mail to other sites like you did. What did you include in the e-mail?

Thanks!

 

Well, in fact he mentions news releases. You know, probably he writes interesting press releases.

 

Very nice article, thanks !
