The Angela Experiment: aka Let's gang up on Angela thread

[Saidar]

I want to rank for "car insurance", "car insurance quotes" and "cheap car insurance"

Should I use the anchor text "cheap car insurance quotes" to do all three in one?

Has anyone had experience with this?

In my country the competition is not that stiff so I'm going to try and rank for them on the local server

[Doug D]

Saidar-- Yes, I usually knock all of them out in a day. I wouldn't worry about doing that. But, if you don't have time...then just do them as time permits. Some get picked up by G. in a matter of hours, some could take days, weeks etc. I have had good luck with just using article marketing and Angela's and Pauls links, however I would recommend doing more than that, if you are really trying to build an authority site.
On your keywords...I would just mix em up a bit. Yes, you could just do "cheap car insurance quotes", but you have an opportunity to do many links anyway. You are probably going to want to go for more than 2 or 3 keywords anyway. I would optimize pages on the site, for 1 to 2 keyword phrases ea...and then mostly send the anchor text links to that page, using those keywords. Angela likes to say that you can use just the exact same anchor text every time...which you could do...if you just wanted to get to #1 for "angela". With a business though, it looks more natural if you vary them...not to mention you could pick up some more longtail keyword rankings. Of course, there aint nothing longtail about your keywords, but you get my point.

Thanks, I'll do as you say. Haven't you ever thought about outsourcing the link building? Some other guy asks $100 for 150 backlinks.

I'm only interested in building authority sites, I don't like having 100 small websites

SNENuke is a LOT of work, PLUS you don;t get much with their basic $49 monthly package, to get any value you are forced to upgrade to their $99 a month. And, still I found myself spending way too much time setting up.

[Doug D]

Saidar,
Yes, some people do outsource for the packets. A lot of the people in here have many sites. If I had 10 or a 100 sites, I'm sure I would be outsourcing too. I have one site that I am building into an authority site...that will generate plenty of income...without having to do a bunch of other sites. I have automated as much as possible, with the site. I like to do them myself or have an employee do them. Here's why:
If they don't stick...you have wasted your time. An outsourcer does not know your site or your products like you do. An outsourcer does not care about your site like you do. I do not do the same thing at every site. Some have blogs in the profile...on these...I grab one of my already made up 100-spun articles, and put it in the blog area...with several anchor text links in it. In addition to roboform, I use notepad2, and I have it filled with anchor text links in html, short summaries with links in html, short summaries without links (some of the editors don't transfer the links over, so I use the editor on the site) Anyway, the point is-- I take a little extra time to try and spin my profile or content, whatever) I find an angle to make my stuff fit in with that site, or i just say "ya, I love michael jackson...and this is my other hobby" or whatever. If it gets looked at my another member or someone that works for the site, my odds of keeping my profile, are much better than the people that just throw up anchor text links and call it a day. (which is what you would get with outsourcing) I would not recommend my approach...to someone with 10 sites, but it works for me.

Makes sense. I just have to learn how to use all those automation software. Just downloaded RoboForm, will start to use it.

By the way I have just noticed while building links that just now only 2 out of 10 of the links that I tried from Angela's April package worked. All the other sites disabled the HTML Bleh

[Doug D]

Really? That sucks. All I can say is-- I bought all of her back packets about a month ago...and it seemed like I had about 90% success rate. Huh? I don't know what to say buddy? Just keep on going, I gotta believe you will end up with a lot better than 20%, at least based on my experience. Ya, the roboform is pretty simple...even for a tech neophyte like me.

[Texjd]

That's not good about that many sites disabling HTML, that could impact all the links and eliminate any of the posted links. Ones that have already been made. Which means that all those folks that got some juice from the links now will loose it.

Can't really blame the websites. If you had 5-6,000 maruaders come knocking on your door to post links and run you would be a little tiff'ed too.

But when people abuse the system, it usually means trouble =8~(.

[schnisz]

Well, that blew my afternoon. lol. Great stuff guys. Couple of questions. I used the packets on one site and it ended up on page 1 rather easily. No sales, but thats a different issue. I was wondering, should I get it to number 1? How much of a difference in traffic is there from say #6 to #1?

gonna try my own experiment here. I have about 40 articles up over at ezine with about 6000 views spread over a few niches. Again no sales. Most of them though are linking direct to a sales page. What do you think about me putting them all over on Go and applying the backlinks to them? Couldnt hurt and I have all the time in the world these days, after all I read this thread!

And specifically for Angela, I know its about low hanging fruit, but how long do you think it would take to rank for a term with about 5 million without quotes and 8330 with quotes? And just how important is on page Seo if Adobe ranks for click here and they are not optimized for it? Is that just sheer volume?

I have heard of the adwords impression method of determining keywords that Jeremy was referring you. Would you mind detailing that? thanks again everyone

brian

[Arunabh Singh]

Hi Angela

I have a question

How many links can I add to a single site provided in your package?

[Doug D]

Schnisz-- #1 = 42% click-through rate #6 = 4% click-through rate
therefore #6.........#1= approx 10x increase in traffic from that keyword.

This is an average based on a huge sampling of approx 36 million searches.
Obviously there are variables, such as product and types of sites on the serp page with you. So you may experience something a little different, but these are the best numbers available. You can see that the disparity is huge. Also, even #2 drops to 12%, this is why nothing but #1 is acceptable for me. Preferably #1 and #2.

[4morereferrals]

And specifically for Angela, I know its about low hanging fruit, but how long do you think it would take to rank for a term with about 5 million without quotes and 8330 with quotes?

10-15 days tops... not a very competitive keyword term - if we are to base our advice on those numbers alone.

If there is search traffic on that keyword combo - then that would be extremely LOW hanging fruit in most peoples book.

Where do you rank now for it?

What are the number of pages indexed for the current top 10 on page #1

What are the current number of backlinks for those same 10 as well and do they appear to be unique or all from the same site or their own sites?

[Doug D]

I concur with my old friend Steve. 8330 is nothing. Also, as Steve eludes too....it would behoove you to look at the top ten sites, as that is what you have to beat. I personally, don't care if the number is 1,000,000 or 1000. The only acceptable outcome for me...is to get to #1, preferably 1, 2, and 3! Do you yourself a favor...if you don't already have it-- Get some software to analyze the top ten sites...or any sites for that matter. I use my software to assess the how competitive a keyword is...by looking at the attributes or incompetence of the top ten sites. With a couple keystrokes and a click of the mouse...I know in 10 seconds...just how tuff it is going to be to get to #1. The numbers you are looking at can be very misleading...and really are just plain poor indicators.

No, every articles you submit needs to have a certain level of uniqueness. If not your backlinks will not count and you will be missing out on search engine traffic to your articles.

Articles are like doorways into your site so you want them ALL to get indexed in google and remain in googles main index.

I'm running a little experiment at the minute by increasing the rankings on some of my inner pages using articles. So far it is a success. Rankings are jumping up for my chosen keywords with just a few articles.

Trust me, they need to be unique. Try it for yourself.

Like Dough D said, that numbers mean nothing to me. If you are not on the top 3, then you won't get any traffic. So to analyze the competition you must analyze the top 3 websites, and then decide to drop the keyword or go for it.

Yep that truly sucks. From the packet of 30, about 20 worked. It was just my luck to get all those non working links one after the other. So 66% is still ok

Power Article Rewriter is a powerful tool to spit out many articles in a short time from an original article. It's a lot different than article spinners, so I would recommend to go and try it out, think it has a 15 day free trial

[Saidar]

Ok people, I'm busy building Angela's links, and all that I can say is that MANY of those websites don't work anymore. Almost all of them put your account under review, and the other sites have warnings because they are saying that "they receive porn links and other garbage", so there are some naughty people with Angela's packages.

Lol think I'm going to try Pauls package

[Barry Walls]

This isn't good news....I just bought 300 of them and my guys are looking at them right now. If >2/3rds work, I'll be happy enough. Some are bound to be closed.

[belgirl]

If this is the case, it looks like I will have to do more backlinks to see any results....

[WinsonYeung]

Angela and Paul backlinks package works very well for me. I have gotten on page 1 of google for my blog for these keywords

- online affiliate marketing
- guide to internet marketing

Look, these are high competitively keywords and I'm sure angela package has help me a lot to get on google page 1 on these website.

Anyway, talking about outsourcer... check on my signature

Hope this helps,
Regards,
Winson

[Michael Gavre]

OK, so here's my results with Angela's Backlinks:

I tried it a little different then most. I went after my main keyword, not a long-tail or low hanging fruit. A simple one word keyword that received 301,000 searches last month according to Google and has 1,230,000 competing sites "in quotes". So it was a little more competitive then most.

I did not do any Article marketing, never have. I have had the site for several years and it has done quite well on the long-tail keywords. For example:

#2 for discount keyword
#3 for boys keyword
#5 for girls keyword

But it has never done well for the main keyword. It has always been firmly entrenched on page #9 of Google. I purchased Angela's Packet last Wednesday, one week ago today. at that time I was sitting at position #83 for my one word keyword.

Thursday, I finished about 10 of the links from the package as I was sitting in the hospital room then got busy and had to stop. I had some time to finish the links on Saturday, so I logged in and checked to see if anything occurred. Lo and behold, My site was sitting in position #24 after just 2 days !!!

This gave me encouragement, so I completed another 10 or so links on Saturday, before my life dragged me away. As you can tell, I am very busy at the moment with a lot of things going on in my life and not much time to do anything.

Anyways, I logged in today and checked my position. Guess what? I am now on the second page of Google sitting at position #12 !!!

I can only attribute this to the links that I have done. I built the site several years ago, in HTML using Dreamweaver. I have not added a page or updated the site in over 2 years at least. It has not seen any movement in the SERPs in that time. It is as static as static can get :-)

One week after purchasing the package and using only 2/3 of the links provided, my site has gone from #83 to #12 for a one word keyword that has 301,000 searches a month and 1,230,000 competing sites in "quotes".

This method can and does work to promote your own site, not just articles.

Thank You Angela !!!

(now to get off my butt and find the time to complete the package and get on to the first page, then work on #1)

That is awesome, I'm still waiting for some drastic results, will see what happens.

Glad you had some success!

[Doug D]

Michael, Well Done! If that keyword really has some value for ya...then I would recommend getting Angela's back packets, and Pauls current and past packets.
I got them and I get all 120 from Paul each month, and if I could get more I would. I mean really, for the cost of 120 (Paul) + 30 (Angela) It's like $30 a month. I don't think your going to get anymore bang for your buck time wise, and $ wise...than that. I mean the difference between #12 and #1...should be at least 50x increase in traffic from that keyword...and it could be 80 or 90x more traffic, as there are variables, so go for it, and good luck to you.
As I said above-- Make sure and use Roboform and Notepad2, or something of the like. It will save you much time (if your not already doing it)

[StevenSaliba]

I heard it was recommended that your articles should be at least 500 words if you want to rank on page 1 of Google. Also, what ranks easier EzineArticles, or GoArticles?

[WinsonYeung]

Ezinearticles Rank better compare to Goarticles. But it's much easier to get you article approve in goarticles. It's almost instantly! unlinke ezinearticles which need few working days to get approved.

Winson

[Amenda Jessera]

That is great man, Angela's experiment really works out..... Me too have some successful stories.... ,

As far as my experience, Google loves goarticles at first place, then It loves article rich, then only ezine or others.... Am I right?

[Saidar]

That is not true, search for major keywords and you will find most of the first spot websites don't even have an article on the page

[Steven Carl Kelly]

I think this is changing, Winson. I'm seeing better rankings for GA articles now.

[Saidar]

I'm busy doing Paul's backlinks. I must say, I get better results from them. Not one of the sites had any problem with me leaving links. no spam protection, no reviewing of accounts. Maybe it is because Angela's packages are a lot more famous than Paul's

Yes, that IS why; however both Paul and I are taking steps to stop the theft from occurring. I have a person who is helping me set it up so that if ANY of my packets are given away, I will know EXACTLY who it is that did it and I'll know who exactly is downloading it as well.

They sometimes rank better on their own. But put up two exact same articles; on on EZA and one on Goarticles. Do the SAME backlinks to them. You will most likely find out that the Goarticles one rises above the EZA one. Someone already did this and his Goarticles article, which was MUCH newer than the one he had on EZA, outranked the EZA article in just a few days.

It reached that spot in about half the time. In fact my ezinearticle was usually #4 spot with another ezinearticle above it.

The goarticle overtook both of them. I was working hard on my ezinearticle to overtake the other guys, and all this time I could have been using a goarticle.

Hopefully the goarticle stays put =)

Here is where that came from

[AnneE]

Just to update with my own experiment. I've added 15 high PR backlinks (PR 6 and above) mostly from Angela's packages (primarily Feb and March sites that I verified my old links were still there) for low competition (about 120K competing sites without quote) keyword.

The day after I added the bulk of the backlinks, I was #16 in Google. the next day until now (3 days worth), I'm at the bottom of the Google results barrel. I only see my article if I restrict search to GoArticle.com domain. I'm going to continue experiment.

Since I sold a $50 product (not this keyword), i took $15 and purchased outsourcing to complete the majority of the links and I also got a list from someone else of a few more high PR dofollow sites to use.

Trying not to get discouraged by how low my current results are.

[LIndaB]

That's great news, Angela. It helps all of us who use these backlinks if the spammers don't get their hands on them and abuse them for the rest of us. I'm really glad to see that you've taken action.

[Ethics101]

Jeremy Kelsall, Ryan6, and AnneE, thank you for your responses. Since it was my first post here, I hope that it or I didn't come across in a confrontative sort of manner. Yet, some of what I read in the responses suggests that I might have done just that... There are a LOT of other keywords that one can pursue for profits, I was suggesting that mental health issues should not necessarily be worthy of targeting in a contest/experiment. None of us can know the exact situation that a desperate person who may be overwhelmed with urgency and anxiety/panic, to the point of losing hope and searching the 'net as a last resort, may be going through. I fully realize that this is a marketing forum. But aren't there other keywords/offers to promote that don't suggest that what one finds after a search engine query is an authoritative resource for mentally troubled individuals as a target for an experiment? Marketing a general product is one thing, but when one decides it's okay to recommend/offer someone a cure, even a potential one, the product in question and promoter's of such offers could be asking for trouble from much higher powers than the owners of this forum. Think along the lines of U.S. government higher powers...FTC, FCC. Been there, done that...letters received in the mail that caused quite a bit of panic/anxiety on my end. Be careful.

[emakina]

i've used three packets of angela backlinks now for my site. across three different keywords. don't even show up in the last page of google.

I gotta post just to follow you rockstars! Keep it coming and thanks.

When did you do these? and did you do them ALL in one go? Did you activate the ones that needed activating? Usually end up in your jumk mail and some of them don't even tell you that you need to activate your account. Worth checking!

Anne,

When did your results dip. If it was within the last 1 - 7 days ago I really wouldn't worry about it. Basically what has happened is that Google is taking in this new activity regarding your pages and evaluating it. What you'll probably find is that within a week or less they'll bounce right back up to a more solid position.

This happened with my sites just a week or so ago. They went from middle of page 1 for my main keywords, dropped to the bottom of page 1 or page 2 for about 6 days then bounced back up.

Time for more backlinking ;-) I honestly wouldn't worry about it.

[Saidar]

The Angela June link at that grave website is really funny. After leaving an html link, they told me they reported me to my ISP. LOL what?? My ISP?

Funny

[axleman]

I posted earlier that with one packet from Angela (and then one from Paul), my ecommerce site went from nowhere on my "Holy Grail" keyword to a pretty solid #13 so far in about a week and a half.

After doing a bit of digging, it looks like this occurred with Google having only found a handful of those backlinks, not the full 80 that I did (well, actually about 50 after discounting the ones that are shut down now.) So it would appear that it could take a good amount of time for Google to discover the majority of these links.

This has led me to an idea that I want to throw out there for you guys to critique.

Let's say I go through this month's packet, and leave my money backlink on 30 sites. After going through the list, I go back and leave one or two more backlinks. This new backlink leads to where I left a link on one of the other sites, the idea being once Google finds one of the pages, it will be easier for it to find the others. (Backlinking your backlinks! ) Obviously, you wouldn't want to go crazy with this by building too many links too fast, but that goes for any kind of backlinking.

Does this seem like a good idea, or is there something I am missing that would make this not work well?

[banker0679]

even if google finds all the links ...they simply dont report every back link you have

i can google the username that i used for the profiles, and i will find those..which means google sees the link, but they wont show you all the backlinks you have in the webmaster tools

if only 5 links show but your site increases by a lot then IT'S WORTH IT!

When I was talking about what links of mine Google had found I was talking about via searching for my profile, not Webmaster Tools or link:abc.com

So unless there are some that they haven't indexed, but are still giving me credit for, then they currently only know about a handful. I'm just trying to figure out a way to nudge the process along a bit without getting too spammy.

What is your competition? One person a while back was wondering why they had not gotten to Page One in a week. I looked at their competition and it was 124 MILLION competing sites.

So unless there are some that they haven't indexed, but are still giving me credit for, then they currently only know about a handful. I'm just trying to figure out a way to nudge the process along a bit without getting too spammy.

I've never one time looked for any of my backlinks in the index. I pay attention to movement. That's how I can tell if Google "saw" my link or not.

Well, I agree that ultimately it's only the end result that matters. It was mostly out of curiousity that I even checked myself. BUt at the same time, I don't want to spend hours setting up my money links to have only a few be useful. I was just wondering if anyone had tried something similar to what I proposed above and what the results were.

That's another problem I have on my new sites... getting them indexed fast in Google. I see all these people claiming to get indexed in less than 24 hours, but it always seems to take mine a week or so at least before Google indexes them. I do sitemaps, webmaster tools, analytics, digg, etc, but it doesn't seem to matter.
