Hi

I have 5 micro niche sniper sites (low to medium competitions) and I would like to SEO them to page 1 at least.

I do have 1 site already on page 1,2 and 3 for some keywords. I have done SEO for some sites previously but they weren't ranking as well. So I've decided why not outsource the SEO work instead, and spend more time on building more sites.

So how much should I spend on SEO? and what type of links should I get? Any advices would be appreciated

Thanks in advance

    if your description is right, that the competition is low to high? then you shouldn't spend more than $300 on each site.

    look at my signature, it's my SEO site...whitehat. you can contact me so we talk and i may give you a discount to work on all your sites.

    all the best.

    • I would say that you should do some reaading on SEO, the best source for learning SEO is the youtube site when you go through their educational services listing that is with a forward slash followed by EDU. You would receive lot of information.

      Once you have spent some time understanding go ahead and hire / outsource someone from a freelancer site like elance.

      The purpose of the pre-work is to ensure that your outsourcing request is refined and detailed and can be measure by results.

      Once you have understood you might have the knowledge to do SEO yourselves, but would suggest you to outsource for better results.

    Head over to fiverr and find a few people to do AMR, UAW, MAN, SEOLinkvine, or any other kind of article submissions for you.

    You'll get articles drip fed for a month, and should be enough to get your article listed some where in the serps for your keywords.

    Then you can try out a service like "the hoist" here on the warrior forum which focuses on building backlinks with backlinks(really effective).

    Then you can go back to fiverr and find another person doing AMR submissions, and have them do another for you, this time write the resource box yourself so it spins the backlinked sites to A. Your Money Site, B. One of the other web 2.0 sites that were set up and backlinked.

    Also, if you can get reports and run everything through pinging/indexing software it will help a lot.

    For some sites you'll be number 1 or close to after this...2.5 to 3 month process, for some sites it might take more.

      Thanks!

      I have bought a few softwares like Scrapebox(Which I never use!) And i have TheBestSpinner and i have subscribed to UAW but now i cancel my UAW subscription because its too much for me at $67/mth
      Maybe I should get AMR? any suggestions here.

      Anyways thanks for suggesting "Hoist Seo" services looks interesting and I may give it a test run soon.

      I really want to make a full time income online!

    Since you can never tell how far behind you are from those who are ahead of you, you can't tell what is the exact effort you need to put.

    So, you have two options:
    1. Study hard your competitors - what kind of backlinks do they have (their BL age, authirity, amount) and according to that calculate what is need of you
    2. Building your backlinks as hard as you can until you are #1

    If you have a WHY you can go through almost any HOW

    To be honest, if the keywords are low to medium competition, you can easily rank them up yourself... find 20 high page rank related blogs, do some relevant comments and point them back to your website... that should be enough. You can easily achieve this by heading over to fiverr and buy a few high rated backlinking service (I'd say go for a regular pack, an edu pack, a profile pack, and a blast pack) that's $20

  • It's a tough question because no one knows for sure how much SEO work any site needs until it actually makes it to page 1.

    In my opinion, I prefer to do the SEO work myself, in that I use backlinking services etc that I have control over, rather than outsourcing them to someone as a once off.

    Find a good linking service, or tool that will allow you to find links. That's my 2 cents

    i currently have 5 xbox repair and ps3 repair sites in local niches that get around 300 searches per month each and all of them are on the 1st page of Google, except for 1

    and out of those 10 sites, 5 of them are in the top 5

    i did a $79 (normally $97) per month SEO pack on each of these sites and it was enough to rank on page 1..

    now i plan to either sell these sites out right to local business owners or charge them to advertise on my site..

    i guess of course the more competitive your niche is, the more SEO you'll have to do, so it may take 60-90 days to get your page 1 rankings, which equates to $300 or so just like another person mentioned...

    i love doing the micro niches they're really fun and it's a good way to get your feet wet if you're just learning SEO.

    thx,
    bobby

    Never pay more than $300 a site? WHAAT? I'll do on page for that... sometimes. LOL. I wouldn't expect to pay less than 500 a MONTH... I start most my clients off at $1,000 a month and its on going, we rank a few keywords, rank a few more, and continue building traffic... they make a lot more than what they pay, so they keep doing it, and eventually they just pay a retainer for reputation management.
