Backlinks...

[Alex Sl]

Hi warriors ...Here are my questions...
1)If i do only 1 comment to a do follow blog-site this will count at google as a backlink...

If is start commenting(post a lot of comments to the dofollow site) to only one(the same) do follow blog all the time means that i will get more backlinks to my site for more comments(i speak commenting on the same do follow blog).This continuous commenting to one specific do follow blog will help me to rank better at google or it is only give me one backlink to my site(like posting 1 comment)?

2)If i comment all the time to a quality unfollow blog in the same niche of mine will help my google rank...i dont think so warriors but i want your opinion...

3)And something a little off topic about backlinks...
There are companies that say that they sell facebook fans and these facebook fans are real people.How they do this?And if they are really people,this means that you can interact with them(fb marketing) and convert all these traffic to money?Right?But it is little strange because if for example you have 600 fans ,if you post something to your facbook fan page and at least 180 people visit your page,at least 20 people will click an ad which means that you will have profit..but i dont think that these companies give quality fans because if it happens then all bloggers will bought 4000 fb fans for example 40$ and they will have profit from ads in a few daysRight?So what do you think there are legit companies that they sell real facebook fans that convert well?

The problem with Facebook is that if you have 4000 fans that have no interest to what you post in your fanpage, then facebook wont display your posts to their timelines.

So it is very important to have fans that are really engaged with what you do, because otherwise your edgerank will decrease and your updates wont be visible to your fan's timelines.

Hope that helps

The key to building effective backlinks is DIVERSITY. Backlinks coming from a bunch of comments on one site will not count for much.

Commenting on blogs should only be a small part of your backlink strategy. In reality, I have not found them to be particularly effect. The comment spammers have pretty much ruined it for everyone and I don't Google gives them a whole lot of weight.

I've gotten several number 1 rankings without doing any blog comments.

The best links are contextual links that are in blog post, article directories, web 2.0 properties, social bookmarks, etc.

Steve above has it spot on!

Diversity is the key to offsite SEO, I still dont get how people have it in their heads that you can rank a site with blog comments alone! maybe this was possible over a year back but it just dont happen now folks.....

I took a brand new site in just over 2 weeks to number #4 for its main kw, I used a wide variety of links to accomplish this though, the kw is medium in terms of comp, has around 6k monthly searches

i'll give you a rough outline of some of the links used:

AMR blast over 100 live links
full link pyramid
submitted articles to 6 private blog networks
manual link wheel of 25 high pr properties
over 200 wiki media links
and a **** TON of bookmarks!

and a small and i mean small! amount of blog comments - i just left nhseo running in background, its good because its a steady consistent stream of comments plus its not crazy fast as its on my own machine

In just over 2 weeks its went #14 #13 #10 #5 and now sits at #4, as you can see i sent a lot of links BUT they were diverse...

Thanks for answering to me guys!
From my little experience i have learned that in order to get better results you need to occupy witjh only one project.
So i want to ask you something about seo bookmarking..
Nikolas i see that you are from my country...to tell the truth i did not waited to find a member from my country here..
Steve and Mike really thanks..very helpful answers i have wasted a lot of time commenting... from now and then i will post a few comments(except from here)...
Want to ask you something both of you guys about social bookmars sites...
To how many bookmars i should subscribe?
I have already subscribe to digg,stumblupon,reddit and delicious..i believe that more subscription means better results...right?
But my question is this...how all these backlinks from social bookmarks help to rank better if they are NOT dofollow..,These links are not dofollow so i think that will not help seo right?

One of the most effective ways to promote your site and gain interest is creating back links. Back links are basically a link which directs people to your website from another location, obviously the more back links you have, the greater the chance of gaining traffic

I would like to suggest that when you choose the blog commenting method then do not check for whether dofollow or nofollow. As both kind of blogs be helpful for your site best results. As when you get the backlink through the blog ,then it bring the quality content to your site so if the link is nofollow then still it be consider and include as the traffic and backlinks, and as your site have get the useful and quality content to your site so indirectly it will be helpful to rank high.

I agree 100% with Nikolas here. While I don't think there's anything wrong with advertising your FB page to get your initial fans, you should definitely make sure you're getting highly targeted fans that will be engaged, and focus on growing the majority of your fans organically through quality content.

It takes time to grow a quality audience, years sometimes... but when you do, its well well worth it. Ask @garyvee

Some one once said to me that "Internet Marketing is a marathon - not a sprint"

Its a long journey but well worth it

I'll agree with all the suggestions people above me gave.

I will add one important point, and that is patience is the key in the SEO game. There is no instant strategy to land you on the first page of google, but with patience you will get there!

Touching on what steve said, its all about link diversity and having an overall strategy. No follows serve a purpose still..they add link diversity and help you appear natural. You have your cheap, high volume links for IP diversity and lower tier levels and you have your High PR links for pointing to your money site.

Everything can be used, if you know how to use it right. You just have to be an SEO MacGyver =D

[patco]

Each page on the do-follow blog counts as a backlink for your website, just don't overuse it!

Patience is what screws most...most people turn to SEO the same way people turn to lottery tickets. Out of some desperate attempt to escape their financial prison. Its a job, thats how it works.

Or you can do what I did and quit digging for gold so much and start selling shovels
