I found that my competition has one blog in blogger pointing a lot of links to their main site... I want to build one but my problem is content because we are using the writing resource for the blog on the site. So these are my ideas to post content in the blogger blog and get backlinks: 1. Post videos from youtube and the text transcriptions. 2. Posting the same posts from the blog on the main site. 3. Copying short and very recent posts from Facebook which text has still not been picked by google. Are any of these bad techniques for backlinks? What are your thoughts?
I like to use Blogger for the reason you suggest, but in my opinion, the backlink plan you are describing is a waste of time.
Google knows everything. If they didn't index content for some reason, it was because they didn't deem it to be of value. And scraping indexed content from the main site is also useless. They are not going to rank the same content equally, and often simply won't index the duplicate. Then in some cases, they might choose to rank the scraped content and push back the ranking of the original post in your site. Messy.
You mean transcribing the audio from a video? I can't see that harming the SEO, though I personally wouldn't do it unless I owned the rights.
But more than harming or not, I mean using those transcriptions to populate the blogger blog and post links to the main site. Do you think those links will be good?
Well they should be valid links, but just because you have an inbound link doesn't mean that it will provide any benefit. That requires learning about how link juice flows.
So one blogger blog will not help me much? Should I do several linking A to B, B to C, C to D and then finally D to my site? Or one blogger site will help?
I am building links with other techniques, but I want to know if this would help, to make the effort of 50 posts in a blogger blog.
First of all you need to make a plan of your back-links. After that make forums, profile, web 2.0 back links on daily basis. in the last use PBN
I am using blogger as a personal blog, I have begun using blogger this year! I keep it clean and simple - I don't even have a theme. 2-4 links per blog post only, and all of these links are internal backlinks to my content found on other platforms. I own the content on both platforms so it is a win-win. I can paraphrase my own work and not use other people's content to promote my own work/ads/sales. Now, I know blogger will not be a powerhouse for me but strategically it serves me now by having a presence online elsewhere that I can link to with my own content. Since it is a personal blog I can post about anything that interests me - that includes my own work which I choose to share. I am the creator, you are the visitor. You decide if you want to stick around. That is ok!
As we know that content is the key of SEO Practice. Here blog play a vital roll. There may be you will find personal bloggers and affiliate marketers writes blog for company as well as individual. Mostly people prefer the video platform to watch the content. This way you may reach more people. With Thanks Tofarch
Your backlinks plan is horrible. But the 3rd idea has a point, if you will get some traffic from Facebook or YT, it will make your site better in Google's eyes btw, how do you know about your competitor's backlinks?
@Oso Optimized you wrote, One blog can help a little, but you need to legitimately learn how to build page rank. What year is this? You realize that page rank has been dead for about 6 years now? Secondly, What has duplicate content got to do with backlinks anyways? You have heard about XML and RSS feeds, right? Millions of news etc websites are producing feeds of their content, which get re-published by millions other smaller websites, pointing to the original article on the main news site. When you look into backlinks of that news website, all those xml links are seen as backlinks. This was even seen when google used to support "link:domain.com" search, and showed all sites it used to see as backlinks to domain.com Its safe to say that these links are counted as backlinks by google etc. You cannot control if someone copies a small part from your website article, publishes it on their own website/blog, and links back to your main article... Are you saying this will not be a backlink? This small content will not rank, I agree. But saying that it will not be counted as backlink is useless blaa blaa...
