Blog Blueprint & Authority Link Network

[steveperch]

Hello everyone,

This is my first post on the Warrior Forum. So far I'm finding it to be an amazing resource and after joining the War Room even more so. So far my biggest problem with Affiliate Marketing is backlinking. I have yet to find a backlinking strategy that works (granted I've only been testing for the last month or so).

I'm thinking of using Blog Blueprint or Authority Link Network as a tool that will provide high quality, high PR backlinks to my site. Has anyone had experience with either? What is your overall opinion?

I wouldn't recommend blog blueprint!
Many people are confident with it, but I'm not so sure about this service.

I used it for 6 or 7 months. After a certain period I wanted to energize some of the posts (the links in them) and I found out some sites of this network had dissapeared!

So they cash and let people put lots of efforts in writing texts or outsourcing it, posting it, and then they trash a part of their network.
Crazy!

I'm curious if others experienced this

None of those services will give you "high quality" backlinks. Though, I did see some ranking increases on keywords I only used ALN for.

Hardali here at the forum has a backlinking service I use and can say I'm very satisfied with.

Hey Natlex,

You really don't think the backlinks are quality? I mean, they are coming from high PR sites so I imagine that's quite powerful. Do you think it is worth it?

Well, to be more accurate I would say they are medium quality. Low would be profile links or bookmarks I guess. A high quality for me would be from a "real" website with PR. The reason is that these websites currently have PR but it's inevitable that eventually (maybe months, maybe a year) they will lose it because either their network will be banned/found by google or all these outbound links to low quality websites and multiple posts a day will just devalue the website by themselves.

No doubt they work currently though, at least ALN since I never tried blog blueprint.

I suggest you use AR (Article Ranks). Seem to be so simple and not many people talk about it. But most of my article submit there are post to pr1+ blog!

I'm currently using Blog Blueprint. I consider the links to be pretty potent. Granted, it won't be the only type of backlinking I'm using on my site as I purchased a WSO from Mike Grant. But Blog Blueprint can stand on its own for less competitive keywords.

It can get tedious writing 100-word articles on your subject. Fortunately they only have to be at least 30% unique. So I take my content from government sources (public domain), and keep 70% as is and then write the 30% myself.

Some things to keep in mind:

The articles on Blog Blueprint's network of blogs are not for human eyes. If you're going to outsource, don't seek quality articles. That would be a waste of talent and money. It is very easy to stretch out a concept into 100 words. You can do it. If you don't want to, then outsource it, but let them know it can be half-assed (can I say that on Warrior Forum?).

Blog Blueprint charges a monthly fee. I wouldn't advise sending backlinks for a highly competitive term, especially if you're strapped for cash. You probably want to see the fruits of your labor as soon as possible.

I know this thread is a little old, but I came across it while doing research between ArticleRanks and ALN. I have to throw my hat in with the crowd that didn't care for Blog Blueprint. I couldn't find most of my links and didn't notice much of a change.

I switched to Build My Rank and did much better. Only problem is that the base membership is 5 domains. I do have 4 out of 5 on page one of google within 30 days or so for mid level competition keywords. All newer sites (less than 3 months old).

Just my .02.

ALN is great is doesnt cost you anything. With the blog you submit to ALN submit it to Article Ranks too and you will earn credits so you can post your articles there too.

Wait, you can post one blog to two networks?

You don't need any tools. My first experience with affiliate marketing is just a basic Blogspot blog and Ezinearticles.

I'm not trying to be a jerk, but we're talking about the tools. No tool is "needed", but they can make life easier and a little faster.

I still want to know whether I can submit the PR4 domain/blog I just bought to more than one network... Anyone?

[pdrs]

i'd stay away from blog blueprint and go for build my rank. Its more work but you'll definitely get better results.

[JoeFox]

Yes Gust, you can submit the very same blog to Authority Link Network and to ArticleRanks. I did.

[pdrs]

Blog Blueprint can provide some short term gains but like a previous poster mentioned sometimes they either delete portions of the network or it gets completely de-indexed.

The problem is they allow spinning and accept basically every piece of crap 100 blurb into their network - which eventually results in the blogs losing PR/being deindexed.

Never used ALN but I've heard varying reports.

BuildMyRank is the ONLY 'blog network' style service I would recommend. It's expensive, it takes a lot of work to get your links up because you have to submit 100% unique fairly well written content - and therefore it works like gangbusters.

Combine BMR with AMR and SeNukeX and if you know what you're doing you can have quite a bit of fun

How can you add the same blog to ALN and AR at the same time ?
it doesn't make any sense that the two blogs are posting articles to the same site at the same time
