Angela's Links Still Working Well For Everyone?

[David McAnulty]

Angela and Fellow Warriors,

Is your linking method still working well. The reason I ask Google has a tendency to manipulate the rankings to their own liking at their own whim.

I signed up for the your service already, but I am looking to incorporate this into the company I work for so I wanted to know the effectiveness others are currently seeing.

I have heard rave reviews, but just wanted a confidence boost from yourself and others currently using the service.

Thanks,
David

[Jill Carpenter]

Why don't you pm Angela or send her an email directly to find out?

In the process of doing that right now.

Wanted to see how it is working for multiple people in different markets as well.

[jazbo]

I have been using profile/member links for ages and my sites are doing very nicely, so I have to say yes they still work. The only time they won't is if so many people are using the same packets that Google notice the pattern and start doing something about it.

I don't know if this is known info or not as I'm new to all this, but how many people use these backlinks every month and how many people (roughly) would it take for google to take issue with it?

[InternetMarketingIQ]

Much of What Angela does is clever... some is spam. Unfortunately when it come to linking a lot of the people buying her packets have no idea how to create a link that won't get banned. So those people will not have success.

People who learn how to place a quality link will do well. It's exclusive of the packets. You need to learn how to contribute to the sites you link from.

[Mike Anthony]

I can't see why they wouldn't on the face of it. Sure as Internetmaketing alluded to alot of people use those packages that can spoil it for everyone but Angela has tried to educate them on using the links properly and even if some sites veto the links its hard to claim it isn't still a good deal at $5.

On a high PR site I don't think the problem with too many people using it is with Google. It depends on the site owner and what he thinks of the influx of signups. Some get antsy and take down the links or make them nofollow and some don't. Despite what some people say some sites don't care ( not all just some). I highly recommend her links. I can't see how you can go wrong with $5. Angela paved the way for a lot of other link packages and she has my respect and recommendation.

[David McAnulty]

Thanks everyone and especially THANK YOU Angela. I got my package this morning and I am going to run with it.

[keenstyle1]

I havn't contributed to the forums where the links were put at all. It says in her diretions you don't have to, but I guess I would.
Are you guys seeing your links in those forums getting indexed? If so how long??

I use all of the packets and IMHO I think it is a bad idea to just let your profile links sit there. Some of them will be found eventually, many of them probably won't.

What I do is:

(1) Ping each backlink (try pingler.com)
(2) Make an RSS feed of the 25 of the profile backlinks using html2rss.com
(3) Add the newly created RSS feed to FeedBurner, creating a nice pretty name (the rss feeds can look like http://feeds.feedburner.com/my-site). And oh, feedburner is owned by Google by the way
(4) Submit this new Feedburner feed to the various RSS aggregators out there. You can do it on your own, or use software. RSSbot is a popular option. I use the RSS module built into Brute Force SEO.

[josephajain]

Ya the links are really very helpful

I'd also like to add Active Bookmarking to this list.

Ya know, I used to do that. However, with the volume of backlinks that I get, even with bookmarking demon it just got too difficult for me to do that. So, I guess it depends on the volume of backlinks a day that one is generating.

I'm in the same boat. Instead of bookmarking the actual individual backlinks I bookmark the RSS feed instead.

[Jaysmyne]

I think I need to get back into Angela's packets, I have MONTHS and MONTHS of packets and a few websites that could do well with the promotion these packets offer - ESPECIALLY with my sites not jumping any PR in the last PR Update.

[nettech]

Lol, exactly, I think I need to start using those old packets as well.

I just went through a spreadsheet that I made from 2 packets ago and from about 35 links, only about 3-5 of them were nofollow/vanished so I was actually quite surprised. None of my links were indexed so Ive just mass submitted an rss feed. It'd be interesting to see what happens next.

[matts5150]

The packets work well just don't do them all in 1 day and then use pingler unless you already have a decent backlink footprint. I learned the hard way, I did about 180 profile links within a 7 day period and used pingler on each one. On day 8 my site dropped from having 3,500 backlinks indexed on google to having 400 using site:domain and using link:domain my site only shows 1 backlink where it did show a few hundred. My main keyword dropped from page 2 to page 42 overnight.

This was 3 months ago, I've been adding about 15 links a day since and bookmarking with socialbot and the same keyword finally broke to page 18 on google last week, however it's page 1 for yahoo and bing and has been for awhile now. I even filled a reinclusion request with google last month and still no dice. The thing you have to consider is even if the google algorithm doesn't see it, which it probably won't unless you go a little crazy, if a competitor has google alerts setup for that keyword they may tip off google that you're trying to manipulate the serps which is probably what happened in my case as they have also been trying to do sql injections on my server and run up my adwords bill. That's another story though.

[John Dales]

Yes it works and I have proven it many times. As an example, my team did an outsourcing job to place Angela's links for a fellow Warrior just a few days ago. He ordered just 20 backlinks and he specified a very competitive keyword. Before we placed the links his site was #462 in Google. After 2 days and after we pointed 20 links, his site jumped to #358 in Google for that very competitive keyword.

That was a massive jump of over 100 for just 20 links. This is a testament of the power of Angela's links and other profile-type links placed in High PR sites.

[richjo]

Just thought id throw my first post in here.

I tried Angelas links last month for the first time for a new niche ive entered.

Once indexed (originally on page 8 for my keyword), i ran through the package and within 6 hours i was top of page 2 (phrase search placed me #5 on page 1!)

I pinged each backlink after posting,( but only after reading on here, i cannot comment on how much effect this had)

[KevinA]

I used angelas links for two months, for 4 sites (@ 60 links each) - i did not ping nor bookmark the pages. I dont think I have seen much benefit from the links, maybe i should ping them. Has anybody used Angela's packets without pinging/bookmarking but still found exceptional results?

You should always ping and bookmark the pages with the links, or else you may go months, if at all, before google actually crawls that page/profile.

While I believe Angela's links have to work based on the testimonials of others, I wouldn't be so quick to sing the praises based on your experience. While jumping 100 spots is terrific.. just how terrific it is is more based on how competitive the keyword. If you jumped from 110 to #4, then I'd say they did some serious work, but more than likely the sites in the 200-400 range are either brand new, or not optimized at all.

While it certainly always is the case, I will say that if you do correct on-site SEO, have your keyword in your domain name, and ping and social bookmark your pages once to get google crawling your site, you should hit the top 100 with ease. Heck, I've had sites hit the top 20 for decent keywords (200-300 exact per day) with no content yet just based on having the domain name be the keyword.

Not to be Donny Downer... just bringing a reality check.

[desireeaib]

How is pining your site helping your the back links?

Thanks!

[seo_freak]

I think here way is getting more saturated with many thousand people opting for the same technique as hers. In years to come here ways will saturate more reducing the effects of the links.

[ebleu]

I've been using Angela's Links for second time now. And I seem to be having no issues at all

Just that, a link or two is kinda messed up. Else, A++.

Probably no issues but the question(s) still remains (for all packages like this), if there is actually a measurable benefit.

Have you been following Terry Kyle's experiment? His article reached #1 using just Angela's links, nothing else.

On a side note, one of my sites which is about 2 months old is currently ranked #11 for an IM ranked keyword. Not tons of competition (as compared to something like "weight loss" etc.), but the affiliate program has quite high payouts and the competition is very fierce for the top spots. As of right now, my site has about 65 links showing up per backlinkwatch, whereas all of my comepetitor sites around me in the rankings have in excess of 300. Some over a 1000 links. Not all of my links are super high PR either, as they are more from Terry Kyle's style (i.e., all the same platform), so there are a lot of PR4 and PR5 sites in there too.

Theres no question that there is. Theres all kinds of testimonials on this. Personally to me thats more than enough. You have to understand the reason why some people are not going to jump up and give their sites URL so you can access measurable benefits. Bless Angela for doing it months ago but when you show the site that you used profile links on you are EXPOSING those links for free because those who know how can check those links pretty quickly and for free.

I don't think I will ever point to a site that I used my backlinks on. You might as well just give those links away for free which would defeat those of us trying to protect the links from spamming and overuse.

.

Thats not what he said in his opening post. Did he change that? He stated he used his own links and Paul's as well. Theres nothing unique about High PR links. Any number of packages work as long as the links aren't removed or spammed by others. In fact the benefit of his own links could be that they are less used and therefore retain more PR juice. Matt Cutts for Google has made it clear that as PR flows it degrades and more so dependent on the number of links used on and from the site.

Note that when I refer to Angela's links i'm referring to high PR profile backlinks, whether they come from Angela or PJ or Terry or KK or whomever. In fact, I prefer Terry's as I can do them about 3x faster than Angelas.

Why Angela Backlinks doesn't Work?

Hey Warriors, some of you might be very skeptic about Angela backlinks, especially when you already try it and see no result!

Don't you curious why many warriors see great result while yourself left alone in the dark? Let me explain a little bit of this...

To make any kind of backlinks work, you need to pick "the right keywords"! What is the right keyword?

When you try to rank for a keyword, you need to perform competitive analysis, knowing roughly how many competition pages are in Google. For more in-depth analysis, you need to learn top 10 competitive analysis, see how many backlinks for the top 10 website have...

For example:

If the keyword you are targeting are in page 1 #10, and it has 1,000 backlinks, you won't beat it unless you have 1,000 better quality backlinks! This is both quantity + quality game, so if you think you can outrank a site with 1,000 High PR backlinks, by just using 60 backlinks, you won't have much luck!

You can try my fast article traffic method using Angela Backlinks, definately see result in 7 to 21 days!


How Do I get Massive Traffic + Profit?

Easy! just follow my article traffic method, and scale it up with tons of articles - outsource is the key...

Backlinks every articles with necessary number of links, do it until all rank on page 1 and you will start to see the money coming in

Don't pick super competitive keyword, you are not Daniel Molano, it will take you ages before you can see any result, and most people will give up even before the result shows.


Conclusion

Do proper keyword research, balance between searches and competition, pick the lowest competition keyword with the highest searches! Keyword research is the key to SEO success!

I just had an article that was written in August and backlinked with nothing but these links de indexed.

I made another sales page and used specific product names and and got to the #3 and #6 spot using these links then two days ago poof i was slapped back to page 9.

I had been back linking since June and making full profiles using only one or two links per site and writing a 200 word or longer bio

Coincidence who knows for sure.

[captivereef]

They did work very well until this happened, can't blame the links for sure but got a gut feeling!

[captivereef]

my article still is indxed and my rankings are still pretty good in the google caffeine sandbox Google

Not sure what that all means, anyone have an idea?

Not sure, but keep in mind that despite the www address google caffeine is not the sandbox as that term is used in IM. It just allows you to play around with the new Google search engine before it is fully released.

[ThackerAgency]

I've used them for several months without pinging or backlinking and have seen results. It is more powerful if you use fewer links in your profile (one or two at most). It might not get you to number one, but it sure can be a springboard. I focus on insurance keywords which are some of the most difficult (because of the industry's deep pockets) on the net.

[Fraggler]

Probably the best testimonial Angela can get for her backlinks is by Googling "backlinks". I don't use them personally but I follow similar guidelines with my own linking campaigns and I have great success and am still yet to experience the sandbox.

take a closer look at her backlinks. you'll find there is more going on then just her packets at work. I doubt her packets alone would have achieved the same SE rank for that keyword.

[captivereef]

I doubt she would give up all of her secrets for $5 a month!

[euhlir]

Easiest thing to do is just use a backlink checker and see what links she has to her articles.

[Fraggler]

But she does use them herself and they don't cause her to be de-indexed.

[Angela V. Edwards]

Actually, I did use my packet links for the article. If you look at the links, you will find only these same sorts of links there; I haven't done any kind of "trick" or any of that for it. No link wheels. No three-way links. No link networks. No RSS feeds. None of that stuff...just High Page Rank links. And yes, I AM giving away "all my secrets" for $5 a month. If I weren't, how do you think I would come up with a packet of Page Rank 6 and above links EVERY month? Don't you think I'd keep the PR 8s and PR 9s and maybe even some of the PR 7s for myself only and have a "monthly packet" of PR 5 and PR 6 links?? The BEST sites I find, I share with my subscribers...UNLESS the site requires a comment, which unfortunately, I can no longer put into the packet, due to the abusive subscribers, who spam the heck out of those types of sites and ruin them for us all.

It's fine to debate about the links themselves if you want to, but don't insinuate that I'm doing something tricky that I'm not sharing, as that is not in any way true.

[captivereef]

seeing one of my heavily linked articles disappear after a 5 months kinda scares me off from these types of links though.

Sorry themboodw thats not an accurate way of referring to profile links. Although I respect Angela and she has done alot to promote backlinking in IM circles she did not originate the practice. Every link package out there cannot be called Angela's links. Thats for her good as well. I'm sure if theres are package out there that promote something suspicious she wouldn't want it called that.

Captivereef that could be a number of things that have little or nothing to do with the links themselves. Were any removed? However I will say this. As in ANY kind of backlinking program you need to mix things up. Profile link packages are meant to be an addition to your SEO efforts not the entire SEO effort.

I suppose the day may come when Google finds an algorythym that can detect an unusual presence of profile links but if you have other links you will still be fine.

I will disagree with some other backlink list sellers and say that I recommend NOT using the same anchor text in all your backlinks. I've seen evidence and a study (which I will have to find again) that overdoing it with the same anchor text keywords can have negative consequences since its not natural that everyone linking back to you will link back the exact same way.

[captivereef]

that article was an experiment, another i have is still ranking but is mixed up quite a bit with comments, links and other things.

Just wait for few more days, I'm sure it will be back! If I were you, I don't care, just continue to build more backlinks.

At the same time, for whatever reasons, DON'T modify your article in anyway! Just do backlinks...

Some people might freak out and start optimizing their content, that is a big NO NO!! Google will black-list your page and it will be "sandbox" for a long long time...

That's why I'm saying... stay tuned and do more links

I think Google detecting spam with few techniques here:

1. Link velocity - The links gaining and losing speed, how many links you gain everyday and how much you lost! If losing more than gaining, you are in trouble!

2. Link diversity - Do you have links from different domains, IPs and platform? All in the same platform will trigger some kind of alert...

You can do a lot of backlinks per day, just keep it consistent, don't spike the link number high up today and zero tomorrow!

If you keep these in your mind, your site / page can stay healthy and not getting filtered!

[jasonmorgan]

If you look at the links, you will find only these same sorts of links there; I haven't done any kind of "trick" or any of that for it.

I'm not accusing you of 'tricks' but you do have a lot more going on with your backlinks then simple n/a profile links.

But in all fairness... the backlinks you've built up for your sites are great work. Which is why you rank as well as you do. It's a solid balance of filler profile backlinks, blog commenting and personal web 2.0 sites.

If I'm not mistaken, the backlinks you have pointing towards your sites resemble more of what was found in your earlier packets but due to various reasons you've dropped some of those methods.

But... the methods you've dropped are also the ones I think may have been the most valuable.

If you remember, I HAD to drop those methods because if a comment was required, folks would spam the heck out of the sites and that would ruin the sites for everyone. That's why those types were removed from current and upcoming packets.
