Google Algorithm and PR are stupid. I'd like to work on my site. Instead of it I have to waste my time and I have to look for backlinks, publish stupid articles about nothing - with links to my site. I have to waste my time on other websites to get backlinks. What a stupid idea.
I never worry about Google Algorithm and PR and never look for backlinks or its seems do anything that you do apart from working on my site. What I do is what everyone needs to do build my own backlings from my blogs, classisfied ads, and single page websites. I have full control over all the sites including content and anchor text on backlinks. Yes you need to provide daily content to keep the search engine spiders fed nad RSS feed can do this. Yes you do need to be able to write about what you are selling, providing lots of information, but Not SELLING. information is king. 1st step is to post 1000 classfied ads and build 500 web page and then add to them daily. Once you have completed this task, write articles, blogs and press releases. Forget about quick fixes and build a longterm secure income.
lol yea you are right, it's stupid as hell, but think smart and you wont have to do the same task as 10000s of people and webmaster do daily, the idea is simple though, create content that people will like or products they will use, spend money on advertising the product and the links will come their own way, this is the best way to achive that, ofcurse you wont be able to do that if you are just starting..... that's why so many people new in this business break their head on how to create bl, and even when they create them it's nothing compared to what you get when you create something that people like
Its a four letter word called work so many people think that marketing on the internet is simply pushing a few buttons, I can place a classified ad and build a simple one page website in a matter of mins, its not rocket science, that why you need to have in depth knowledge of what you are promoting. Of course if you are lazy you can pay someone to do it for you, but that way you will never learn yourself. its a question of having the right tools for the job that makes it easier.
I advice you not to write stupid articles)))write interesting and useful information...it is simply, isn't it?
Don't be so judgmental on the Google's algorithm and updates. Some way or the other every sire get effected with their updates, so need to panic. But do concentrate on your process that in cludes both off-page and on-page optimization and have patience. Rest all shall be okay.
but it different with me...i like link building and i enjoy the blogging as my hoby my job...i don't know with others.
If you want your presence in cyber world then of-course you have to do these stupid tasks regularly or alternatively you need to spend money on ads.
