Fast Affordable and Quick Backlinks to Your Site

If you have ever attempted the impossible, climbing the search results ladder, in a highly competitive niche you know it can be very expensive, difficult or time consuming, pick any two. Manually adding back links using something such as Paul or Angela’s packets costs $5 or $7 per month plus a 3 to 5 hour time investment for a total of 80 links. While this may be alright for easy to get good spot for long tail “How to play Texas hold’em while standing on you head” type keywords, you will be a long way off on trying to get anywhere near the front page for “Online Texas Hold’em”.

It gets to the point where your competition has hundreds or thousands of high ranking (PR) and targeted backlinks and it seems like there is nothing you can do even if your page is optimized perfectly. At 80 links per month it could take you years and considerable money to get anywhere close (and by then our products/cpa offers/publications become outdated or obsolete) no matter what your back linking strategies are.

We have all asked ourselves the question “how to get backlinks to your site”, I think the more relevant question is how do I get a good list of TARGET SITES on which I can place a backlink since that is all you are really buying from anyway.

There are many methods of finding these targets. If you use Paul and Angela’s packets you will be familiar with some of the forums they use such as SMF (Simple Machine Forum) or vBulletin which allow you to place an anchored backlink in your “Visitor Messages” and “Signature” fields. If you extrapolate that a little you will notice that all message boards made on the domains “proboards.com” and “conforums.com” allow links within their profile information. You can find these types of blogs fairly easily on Google using some simple search modifiers: (Click Read More To See The Rest)

SMF Forums:
inurl:"/index.php?action=profile;u="

vBulletin:

inurl:"/forum/member.php?u="

ProBoards:

inurl:proboards.com

ConForums:

Inurl:conforums.com

Of course you can add your favorite switches and arguments to search for specific domain types, keywords, or exclude statements. Such As:

“Backlinks”

Site:.edu

-“you must be logged in”

Putting it all together to look for blogs on an .edu domain that you don’t have to be logged in for that is about xbox 360 consoles would look like:

site:.edu inurl:blog “comment” -”you must be logged in” "xbox 360"

Use your imagination there are endless possibilities to find viable back link targets.

Finding the Loot:

If you’re smart you just go and find one of her (or his) articles and do a search on backlinkwatch.com, or yahoo site explorer.

For Example:

http://www.goarticles.com/cgi-bin/showa.cgi?C=1151743

Identifying a few potential targets. a quick scan reveals: http://www.readwriteweb.com/ PR8, http://www.unfoundation.org/ PR7, http://www.yo-yoma.com/ PR6, http://www.papermag.com/ PR6, http://www.businessweek.com/ PR8, http://www.librarian.net/ PR7, http://pajamasmedia.com/ PR7, http://www.jossip.com/ PR6, http://www.desmogblog.com/ PR7, http://11thhouraction.com/ PR6

Anytime you see someone with a simple page ranking high for a term you want to rank for, go do this. This will work for any page that you want ranking (although sometimes there is more than just backlinks taken into account.

Things to notice: (a) the sites linking TO the high ranking page have nothing to do with the niche of the high ranking page, whats important is the authority of the source page, (b) as much as possible, use the keyword for your anchor text, don't vary very much. (c) if you want backlinks to another page on your site, just rinse and repeat; if this was untrue then articles from e.g. goarticles and ezinearticles would not rank. (d) this works well also for very high competition keywords, but it takes more backlinks to rank well.

Smarter yet just find the user names they tend to sign up with. (for some reason both Angela and PJ both use the same username for a staggering number of sites).

You can find these by doing the following in google:

 

Inurl: AngelaE8654

 

OR

 

Inurl: pj413

I have personally found several hundred links this way

 

 

Blog Commenting Strategy VS. Blog Comment Spamming

The best blog commenting strategy I have found takes into account the types of sites you are posting too, whether or not they are moderated, and if we know something about the topic. Whether they are BlogEngine, Wordpress, or Movable type blogs has an influence as well (different engines work in different ways).

 

Blog Comment Spamming is considered by most to be a black hat method that will get you sites de-indexed and possible affiliate or ad sense accounts banned. I am here to tell that if done right mass comment posting (not spamming) will and does work. I have tested this theory extensively and to date have not had one of my sites removed from Google’s index nor have my adsesnse or clickbank accounts been banned. There are a few secrets that ensure success and with a little caution you can actually add value to the content you are posting on. Of course this can all be abused and horribly overused to cause both a decline in the number of sites it works on, and a higher likely hood someone will report your ass (and good for them).

 

I would suggest a couple tools that will significantly increase both the speed and quality of your back links efforts.

 

ScrapeBox is a must! This tool has saved me more time and headache than any other piece of software I have ever purchased and its only $57.. Get it here

 

The other tool to get, especially if you do any kind of article marketing, video submissions, or mass social bookmarking is SeNuke. It’s a tad on the pricey side but if utilized properly can have a dramatic impact on your sites visibility. Check it out here for a complete list of sites it can submit to.

 

Scrape box can be kind of overwhelming the first you use it, you could almost compare it to a craps table there are just so many options and so many things it can do you just do not know where to begin. Once you master how to use it though it can be the most powerful SEO tool you have ever used (I regularly get 500 confirmed back links in less than 25 minutes).

 

Where to start with Scrapebox:

 

Private Proxies:

 

If you’re looking to get straight to business and you got $30 per month to spare I would HIGHLY recommend that you don’t cheap out and grab some private proxies trust me you will thank yourself for not having to deal with the harvesting approach. Get them here:

 

Harvesting Proxies:

 

Just click on manage proxys and select “Harvest Proxies” let it do its thing, then click test proxies and it will run through and weed out all the garbage ones. These proxies are highly saturated with other scrape box users which means the ips tend to get banned quickly and they will stop working, using another program such as forum proxy leecher will help.

 

What type of blogs?

 

I found that posting solely to blog engine type blogs yielded the best results as both wordpress (Akismet) and movable type blogs both have a higher number of moderated blogs and employ some sort of comment spam filter. Yes this means you have to use the slow poster, and yes it can take some time. But do you remember doing them by hand? You can do nearly 400 backlinks in under an hour once you build a proper list.

 

How Many Keywords?

 

I generally pick a topic or keyword related to the site I have in mind use the Google keyword lookup tool then grab ALL of the results in both sections and place them into the keyword scraper in scrape box. The keyword scraper is awesome for a lot of things, it gives you results from:

 

Google Suggest
Yahoo! Search Assist Suggestions

Amazon Suggestions

YouTube Suggestions

Bing Search Suggestions

Google Product Search

Shopping.com Search

Yahoo Shopping

Ask.com Suggestions

 

 

You can generally turn that list of 200 keywords related to your topic to over 10,000 by pasting the results of the scrape back into the keyword list and running it again (it takes some time but works well). If you do Google Sniping (or CB product sniping) you can find some real gems for keyword domain names but checking to see if the thiskeywordstatement.com is available.

 

Where and What to Scrape:

 

I generally select Bing, Yahoo, and Google to scrape from some people prefer to only do Google, I figure the more the merrier. Make sure you have “Use Proxies” checked and that you set the number of results to 1000 (that’s all it’s going to give you anyway). Unless you want to wait forever enable the multi-threaded harvester enabled in the Settings menu. Hit start harvesting and wait, it’s pretty quick. (Hint: you can adjust how many connections the program will make to each search engine simultaneously depending on your computer and internet connection)

 

Make A List… And Check it Twice…

 

 

The whole point to my method is that we are going to find non-moderated blogs on which we can guarantee we get a back link from (and anchored if we use our keywords as the name). If you’re worried about getting banned or unindexed go register an 0.89c .INFO domain and throw up a wordpress blog, because we are going to be attempting to comment on as many blogs as we can.

 

Make sure you have the BlogEngine Moderated comments add-on installed, open it up and import the list. After that load the list of “posted” comment URLs in the link checker, use a text file with the url you want to verify has a back link pointing to it. Start saving these lists and pretty soon you will have hundreds of guaranteed links.

 

To Split or Not To Split?

 

When you harvest the urls depending on the number of keywords and how many pages there are for each you will find you get a great deal of duplicate urls, and urls that are on the same domain but a different page. A brand new feature allows you to split the urls into two files so that you do not end up posting the same comment on two pages of the same domain (not a good idea if you don’t want to spam and annoy web masters). If you do split just make sure to run different names, links and comments through each list so you look completely unique. I have had much success with this method.

 

Can I link in my comment?

 

Unfortunately with BlogEngine you cannot use html in the comment (I didn’t realize this for a while and as a result has many broken links, I wondered why I was not getting more of a boost), it will however auto convert a URL into a link. If you want an anchored backlink with a BlogEngine blog you will have to use the name field to do so. I simply just put the keywords I want to use for backlinks in a text file and load it in the comment poster in the appropriate spot.

 

You can use href links in wordpress and movable type blogs though, but making viable lists of any benefit is much harder to do. BlogEngine yields on average one in 10 compared to one in one hundred with Wordpress and Movtable Type blogs.

 

Sounds a little complicated?

 

Well we offer a service to do guaranteed backlinking blog commenting service for you. Charging just $20 per 100 links with pr 3 – 9 its pretty cheap to see if it works for you. Don’t worry about all the hassle yourself or try out the scrapebox service before you buy the best linkbuilding tool out there.
