cheers mate, nah I'm not after getting paid directly for it. I was thinking of affiliate/services style monetisation.
Tiered link building still works, just not sure 100% SER still works. I think I am one of the last people that was using 100% SER generated tiers but for my new sites I am just making T1 and T2 with RX and using SER on T2 and T3.
Edit - BTW mate I have some RX test projects from overnight and the wiki blast is 100% no follow for me. Not sure if it was the same for you but I see no reason to use them.
@Shaun please test them out. RankerX defined them as "no-follow" but they really direct to your linked page. Seems to be a do-follow in my eyes :-P
Or at least... mine does... I just re-checked them :-)
"Tiered link building still works, just not sure 100% SER still works. " --> Is my idea to use web 2.0's (only) for Tier 1 still working? ---> working on the tier 2 as for now with wiki's, later on web 2.0's + articles. Still thinking about what ratio I should take though. Any tips anyone? :-)
Hmm im not sure if I dont understand your comment or if you misunderstand what do/no follow means. Clicking the link and it taking you to the linked page has nothing to do with if its do or no follow. There is a HTML (could be another language) tag that is added to the link so Google (Bing and other search engines dont use it) can detect if they should crawl through it and if the site owner deems that link as trust worth.
You should always be able to click on a link and it take you to the linked page, I just double checked and all three blasts show 100% no follow for RX wikis.
Well my test sites with RX on T1 are doing fine, the ones with just SER on are dead in the water but the ones with RX and SER on are doing the best by far so it defo needs more testing.
Guess i learned something again, thank you @Shaun. Quick question, if RankerX is no-follow, you'd suggest me to build the wiki links with GSA SER I'd asume? Though, 1linklist has a limited supply for building wiki's.
I'll go ahead with web 2.0's in tier 2 later today, I'd think I'll build those with RankerX as well. The articles will be done with GSA SER , as well for the tier 3.
@shaun - IIRC Jacob King said he was making $x,xxx per month off affiliate commissions from his blog. It came to mind because that was the first place I read about SER a couple years back. The market for these tools has certainly gotten more saturated since then, but I think it's possible to make some money. That said, I also think there are a lot of good reasons that the best seo writers like Aaron Wall rarely publish
12348766754 Wikis are just one element, its actually the smallest one in my contextual link building. The majority is Articles then Social networks then Wiki from my SER links and from RX I only use Social networks.
@redrays yea I have seen blogs like that in the past I have been in bed shaking the last of that head cold today and went over about 100,000 words worth of notes for it and have removed or blended about 90% of it so far to make it more streamlined.
Most the blogs I have seen out there is like 1 post on SER with a basic explanation of what to do but missed the vast majority of the stuff you have to do behind the scenes then onto promoting the next tool. Here is an initial plan of sections I came up with earlier.
From my latest round of test sites it defo seems like my SER method is dead so I wouldent be posting methods unless I can prove them but more like the stuff you do behind the scenes like how to filter your list correctly and keep it clean along with a bunch of other stuff in the image.
@Shaun what about the ratio's? As far as I can see, people are stating: "try it out".
I think my ratio might be 250 - 500 as for now (for tier 2), since the Social Networks of RankerX are working fine in combination with GSA SER. I am blasting links right now (tier 2, web 2.0's). I'd think tomorrow I'll blast some articles through GSA SER as well. Would this be to much?
And what about the filters. Should I keep for example the language filter on in tier 2? Or shouldn't that matter anymore, the same question for external links.
What do you think about a few forum profiles in Tier 2? Or shouldn't I use them in Tier 2.
Theres no hard and fast way with SEO so try it out is usually the correct answer.
Ratios as in how many T2 links to point at each T1 link? I do a minimum of 100 right now but thats for my keyword research method so not sure what you will need.
I dont use language filters on any level.
I used to use forum profiles on my T2 but they stopped indexing so I dropped them.
@Shaun that's correct, as in how much T2 links to T1. I think I'll just make it huge around 250-500.. I am just running one small campaign and I've the resources for it. Regarding the indexing, would a website like this work good enough (dont wanna waste money on ahrefs for example)? http://smallseotools.com/google-index-checker/ (5 at the time) http://indexchecking.com/ ( 25 at the time)
Edit; I'd think 7 out of 43 are indexed as we speak. Though, it was just a few days. I'd asume that will change when the tier 2 is done (not started for some urls as well)
@shaun - most people who buy these tools through affiliate links are the type who jump from one get rich quick scheme to the next. I think this is why we end up with blogs that give a basic explanation with little to no followup on how to actually use the tools. There's supposedly more in depth information on these paid 'blackhat' forums, though I've never joined one so I can't say for sure.
Anyway, what you've outlined sounds awesome, and I hope you follow through in publishing. You'd definitely be filling a huge information gap. Pretty much all the seo blogs that I liked reading have gone dark
I do totally agree with @redrays. Though, You might wanna focus on one part of your Idea first. Because the workout of the picture above will cost you massive amounts of time.
12348766754 Do you own scrapebox? I still use that for index checking although it does require some testing after anths discovary.
redrays Yea, a mate loaned me his login for some of them when he tried IM and they were pointless.
I literally just had an epiphany in the bath lol, decided to go all in and get my arse in gear for this blog. I have nothing on the next three weeks and I was planning to use it to get some sites online but I am going to use it to get my personal blog off the ground and then I can use my tests as case studies for more content in the future.
Are you three up for being my alpha tester guys for it? I will inbox you the URL in like a week or something? Just I have never built a site that is essentially my brand and I am accountable for it so wouldent mind some feedback before I scale it big and promote it.
None of these are updated regularly, some haven't been updated in years, but I think all of them have at least some amount of useful, non bs information.
Seems to be 12 out of 43 tier 1 are no-follow, though RankerX defined them as do-follow. Glad I did a manual check after the reply of @Shaun. This will save me some resources/time building T2 to a worthless T1.
I'd also take notes which domains, so in the future, i'll skip these domains. I'll do a check on the tier 2 as well later on today (fucked up work though, lol).
Just thinking how I would increase the T1 later on, since these were all targets RankerX had (as premium). Should I re-use the domains, or just build some with GSA SER?
I'll continue with adding 20-30 article URLS (tier 2) daily for a week (or at least 5 days). After 5 days, I'll re-verify all URLS and check the drop. The URLS which dropped will be removed and re-added.
The URLS which remain alive for at least 5 days, will be send for the Tier 3 linkbuilding. Is that a good tactic?
Yea both RX and SER are way off in what they class as do follow and no follow. Manually check them then make custom site lists. Got a guide planned for this but I'm trying to filter the content I have already typed up first but the content ideas just keep piling up lol.
For now my plan is to crank out as much Christmas content for the GSA tool set and then expand into the other stuff.
Yea that's literally the exact thing I do. Hold them in a project for link loss then move forward with the keepers.
@Shaun you already stated above you do not use a language filter (for bad words etc). Do you filter on country/language (in terms of the language you speak, not 'bad words')?
I am still not sure how much "harm" those asian websites will do as a tier 2.
Later today I'll do a next step into the Tier 2 building. Done as for now; wiki links (rankerX was a failure, though GSA SER had some). Articles -> 25 (with variation of 3) daily. Web 2.0's -> working on those, build web 2.0 's to around 13 out of 33 tier 1 links so far. Will continue later on today and cover at least 15 more.
edit;
It would be great to manually check them, though.. for tier 2.. it's to much work. Web 2.0's manually checking would be worth it, as i did yesterday.
Though, the articles are way to much work (hundreds, maybe a thousand daily).
I am sorry for that @Shaun. What I ment was; GSA SER has three filters;
Word filter (seks, Dick etc). Language filter (only english, german etc) Country filter (only USA, Germany etc)
Earlier you stated you do not make use of the wordfilter. Though, do you make use of the language or country filter?
For example to block those Asian sites which looks spammy. I am looking into these websites a bit more, because i am still not sure if those are toxic or valuable.
Ah right I get you now, no I dont use any filters on my projects right now although I do have a plan for an upcoming test if I have time to see how it goes.
I kick out some asian sites during my list filtering process.
Should I remain with the "GSA SER: Tier 2 -> Article, Social Networks, Web 2.0, Wiki "? Or add aditional engines, such as directory on SER.
This due the fact, the amount of wiki 's (my capacity) is low. Amount of articles is fine (good) and the same for Social Networks (RankerX, didn't do SER yet).
edit;
i just watched a video for scrapebox. seems to be an addon to check for do-follow links. Had some proxie errors, but I am sure it works :-)
@12348766754 - personally I've never used any of the filters that you mention, though I've seen other knowledgable ser uses say they do. However, if it's just on tier 2 I wouldn't worry about it at all.
@shaun - a little off topic, but based on your testing with RX do you feel like subdomain1.wordpress.com & subdomain2.wordpress.com are treated as separate referring domains the way domain1.com and domain2.com would be?

Or at least... mine does... I just re-checked them :-)
