Thought i should update where my blog stands in serps, keep in mind i’ve done little or no link building this month all the incoming links are from previously done link bait and/or natural links.
I am kinda happy about the current serps, with no work they look great, i think its time to get to the top for “daily seo” now ill get to work on it then..hehe.
Now this part is rather odd because according to my awstats im receiving my daily dosage of 500-600 uniques per day but these stats show that the traffic is dropping, I’m gonna wait 2-3 days before i start a traffic campaign or something..
And as always I’m gonna finish this post on a happy note, i got a Pagestrength of 5, woo!
This was an idea for an e-book something like mubin’s imagehosting ebook maybe?
But i thought “what the hell..lets post it up..” , these are really some simple tricks and tips you can do to have a good proxy network up and running…
First of all you need domains, new ones, if you buy pr domains that would just screw you over since they might be de-indexed already or might have a niche history (which ends up in less indexed pages for you) a new domain means a new start a new history for google to archive..
Now, proxies do-not get de-indexed easily i know that for a fact i have proxies with 30k+ pages indexed at google for over 3 months now and they are still doing their job like they are supposed to..
I am gonna go ahead and use one of my proxies as an example..
I have Myspace Temp as a proxy and it has 30,000+ indexed pages:
If you look closely at the screenshot below you will see that the links at the top are linked to proxified pages of those sites, this maybe considered blackhat but it sure as hell beats the 4hr/day job of getting traffic to your proxies..
If you leave those links up there, google will pickup the pages from it as you get more links to the home page. The more indexed pages you have the better and as you get more authority or strength your pages will rank better which means more traffic!
And the bottom part is something i called “network wide port” i add a php function to the front page that fetches info/content from a file hosted remotely so that i can add/sell/trade links as well as try out new adnetworks whenever i want without going through the incredibly annoying task of editting the proxies one by one, its perfect if you want to run a proxy network.
I was just throwing a few queries at Yahoo’s directory, this was a fun one, i know i may be completely wrong but it sure is worth blogging since people keep wondering what sites shoemoney owns, so here it is..
Frankly, I’m thinking of listing around 5 of my sites at yahoo myself, since for those sites i need pr and authority, my mfas do great without that much authority.
I already know it as a fact that Links to a homepage of a site gets you more indexed pages, but what about pr passed on to the pages below it?
Its always interesting to see webmasters buying “deep links” on forums and directories, i consider this as an unwritten rule that i follow while link building for a site, unless you know that your site will never get deep links on its own you should only do linkbuilding for the homepage, and have all the links that ARE available on the site “site pages..etc” on the front page, so that whatever link love you get for the front page eventually passes on to inner pages and links as well, the more pr/strong pages you have the better your site will be structured.
You can usually check the pr of each link on a page using iwebtool’s visual page rank, here is mine:
As you can see that the most inner pages on my blog have low or no pr at all, thats because all the links are leading to the homepage and they are yet to be passed down to the innerpages, getting a pr on your inner pages can be quite difficult its like a sign of mid-high authority (having pr on inner pages) so as far as i can see i’ll have a healthy number of inner pages with pr on the next update not to mention my pr5 homepage.
IF you are doing link building, make sure you stay on your niche with it, either let it be the title of the page, the name of your site or the keyword you are aiming for. You have 3 choices to make. Do-not go off topic.
Since my MFA outrage (which by the way is still booming) people have been asking me how i got that many indexed pages and how they can achieve the same, so here i am, releasing aFree SEO Book that will give you all the info you need to be a successful webmasters and do much better on your sites, the tips i discuss in the ebook are completely ethical and nothing but pure white hat.
This can be considered a webmaster startup guide, every webmaster/marketer is a SEO in their own way and as a matter of fact SEO is used in every step of being a webmaster.
It was bound to happen to Aviva Directory, directories that don’t have a specific niche as i said before in my Google Approved Directory guide get banned by google, completely, no exceptions.
A site without a specific niche (general/web directories) are considered spam, and directories have 3 goals to mantain for their buyers:
Relevant Traffic
Strong Backlink
Proper promotion of the directory.
Well strength and traffic comes from google and proving that isn’t that hard really, without traffic and strength what do you have left really?
Thats what webmasters do these days, they make tons of blogs sucking in tons of relevant traffic and running up their directory’s status the minute they are de-ranked by google, its all down the drain (traffic) the graph on the right is proof of that, the majority of the traffic to Aviva Directory was from Google, after it was de-ranked it started plummeting.
Well, after my recent post on the traffic splurge from simple seo, people started asking me about how to do basic seo and how to promote their blogs that were being overlooked by google, so here i go.
First and foremost thing that i would enforce is relevancy, nothing else, if you are relevant to your niche, you’ll be just fine.
Now here are some steps you can take to have a bit more interactivity going on your site which leads to “returning traffic” that keeps coming back for more.
This one is terribly simple, blog directories and communities such as mybloglog and blogcatalog they both are very powerful blog communities, blogcatalog is a blog-directory as well (where i have listed my blog too), it provides carefully reviewed submissions to their directory, which by the way is FREE, so go for it!The more interactivity you have on your site such as those oh-so-cool recent readers widgets that both of those blog communities provide.
One more directory that you might want to submit your blog to would be the BlogFlux Directory, you could do this on a later note too because its not that important to have your blog in there, but an extra link never hurts and blogflux gets tons of traffic! (yep, i have my blog there too)
Now the second step if you wish to, you could take SMM as a promotional strategy for this, make sure your tags for each post have something to do with the original niche that you are trying to base the blog on, and to make this easier i’d recommend using OnlyWire , its an all-in-one kinda social bookmarking site, you can just use one interface in order to bookmark tons of posts/pages on your site/blog.
Link Building : This is the easiest and most fun part of making and promoting a blog, you don’t have to buy links for every site, its better if you link exchange with relevant blogs on the same niche, make sure they don’t contain any off topic rants or anything, while launching a blog you need to be zero-tolerant on getting links from in-active blogs/sites, usually those sites get de-indexed to the bare minimum amount of pages at google and it stays that way, although some links are better then none links so you should get those too but try to make them your last priority.
If you can’t convince yourself you are basically screwed from the very start, so don’t care what other people say is a high paying keyword, do your own research and then you’ll have proof that what you are doing actually DOES work!
On an almost daily basis i use Google Trends you can compare products and search phrases on there to get a more accurate view of the whole situation this is something alot of people skip doing and rather pay marketers and seos to do, Its just one simple query and it can get you a ton of good info.
For example, look at the stats below.
You can see clearly that free games has the highest frequency of searches and activity, so targeting for that keyword would be a bad bad move unless you have a good advertising budget and one kick ass site, so this way you get the full stats of whats the highest used keyword and what keywords you should be using for your sites, in this case id suggest free online games since its easier to land compared to the rest and once you have that you can get free games easily as well because you are on the much relevant, same niche based and less used keyword already, that gives you leverage at serps!
Monetization : While starting up your blog (early stages) you shouldn’t load up your blog with tons and tons of ads, it would just make it look like a “Cliche” site that webmasters are making now adays and would be discarded as one of them as well, be careful of what you monetization techniques you choose for your blog.Do anything but use sites like PayPerPost, since google does-not like PPP and what they do at their sites,threatened or not i do-not care all i care is about results that i receive from sites i invest my time into and PPP although pays alot but is a big risk, just like john cow got de-ranked i don’t want to hurt my rankings.I won’t say what you should do but i sure as hell would tell you what not
