Just don't rely on it as a magic bullet. It is a very powerfull weapon to have in your armoury, but ensure that you are working on your other link diversification as well.

Yeah I definitely have all my eggs in one basket right now with it.

I guess I'm gambling a little, but I've been thinking that contextual backlinks from blogs are the last thing that will ever get dinged by Google.

BMR works, but you have to feed the beast. I have sites that 95% of the links come from BMR. My only concern is that google undervalues links from short posts at some point.

I'd also recommend making sure you vary your anchor text.

I've been thinking the same thing that that might happen with the short posts thing.

I guess if it does then we will all just have to adjust with longer posts linking to us.

I personally already incorporate longer posts. I'm using roughly the following ratio with my personal posts

70% 150 word articles
20% 350 word articles
10% 450 word articles

The additional advantage of using the longer articles is that you can use your 2nd/3rd link to add in a 'junk' keyword

ie: click here, for more information, www.mysite.com etc

The benefit of this is that the keyword placement appears to be more natural.

The MINIMUM is 150 right? You can do 500 words if you want or have I not dug that deep? And OP is absolutely right.... VARY your anchors from time to time. I have a client that I think was hit hard because for nine months he wanted me to use the same exact anchor (he runs an SEO company, I just build what he wants lol).

Yes you write 150 words if you want 1 link in your post. Want to have 2 links in your post? Write 300 words.. or 350 words... Whatever you want.

Personally I've only ever written between 150 and 200 words per post.

Never use BMR soley on its own. Always use it in conjunction with other SEO methods.

Contextually relevant backlinks may not get dinged by Google, but BMR's network of blogs eventually will.

Ive experienced this first hand with Linkvana.

They already have. It inevitable like you said. Its just that they are able to go out and buy some more domains with PR. The only way to not have it happen is to have a very private network but any service sold to the masses is going to get hit.

BMR is good for chasing longtail keywords but can give users a false sense of ranking as their site can rise, then drop again as posts get pushed further back.

It's fine to use as long as you don't purly rely on it. All you need is Google to slap the sites and rankings and traffic bye bye!

I still do social bookmarking and other things like article directory submissions but since I introduced BMR into the equation my rankings have soared to #1 much quicker.

How are you rankings after the recent Panda update? Still ranking high at #1 for your keywords or have they dropped somewhat?

BMR is a great blog network

They really go above and beyond the others that helps set them apart from the rest of these types of services.

As others have mentioned, be sure that you include some type of other linkbuilding efforts into the mix, because frankly, if BMR is your only solution you won't get to the top of Google.

With BMR you continually have to "feed the beast", meaning creating new content and posts. Since the posts fall off of the homepage, where all the PageRank is, the overall linkjuice begins to deteriorate as the posts get farther and farther back in the blog.

So, is it safe to say that BMR is ideal for launch jacking or Black Friday?

I am just a little concerned about having to add fresh content so often. It is kind of hard to find new things to write about over and over again.

Have used BMR recently to re-rank a niche site that was in top 5 of the big G for ages. Then it dropped to page 11 or 12, did about 10 blog posts externally using the BMR network and its now at position number 24 and seems to have stablised.

I agree mixing up the link building would be definitely something people need to consider to keep things appearing as natural as possible.

It is a powerful tool and I find varying anchor text, having some posts that are much longer, doing just a couple a day per domain and putting good information in the posts all useful. You do get visitors from the blogs. I also think that making sure your site itself has high quality, long articles is key. Doing some press releases, article marketing and guest blogging is also important.

Quick question for those that use BMR when they say you can have up to 20 domains for one of the packages does that mean I can submit articles and put in a link to as many internal urls for that domain and it will count under 1 domain? Is it possible to have 20 different TLDs and build links to has many pages for each of those domains or will it count each internal url as domain?

Also can we rotate which domains we want build backlinks each month so 20 in the first month, then another different 20 2nd month then 3rd month again to the first set of 20 domains in month 1?

When they say they allow 10 posts maximum a day for each domain does that mean those 10 have to be to the homepage of that domain or can we point 5 to homepage, 2 to an internal url of that same domain and another 3 to another internal url of the same domain?

By the way which package do most people subscribe to since you can rotate the domains at any time?

Correct.

Is it possible to have 20 different TLDs and build links to has many pages for each of those domains or will it count each internal url as domain?

Any page/url on your site is counted as 1 domain.

Also can we rotate which domains we want build backlinks each month so 20 in the first month, then another different 20 2nd month then 3rd month again to the first set of 20 domains in month 1?

You can "archive" and "unarchive" domains at anytime. However if you archive a domain while it still has posts queued for it, those posts won't go through until the domain is unarchived.

When they say they allow 10 posts maximum a day for each domain does that mean those 10 have to be to the homepage of that domain or can we point 5 to homepage, 2 to an internal url of that same domain and another 3 to another internal url of the same domain?

It can be any combination you like. I have one domain where I have 10 URLs defined (1 per keyword).

By the way which package do most people subscribe to since you can rotate the domains at any time?

No idea, but I suspect the base package (5 domains) is the most popular as it is the cheapest.

Thanks for your answers.

But if all the posts have been published,approved and indexed for that domain then we can archive it and bring in a new domain in its place for like a few weeks to promote and then go back to that domain in a few weeks again correct? There is no loss of posts or anything like that happening when we archive a domain correct?

Glad to see this service is working for so many. I am thinking about getting it and found this thread encouraging.

Quick Question:

Is it important to add the link (to your site) early in your BMR post?

That way when your post gets displayed on one of the blogs in their network the link is displayed on the main page.

I am concerned that the blogs within the BMR network only show a snippet of your post on their homepage. It remains on the homepage for 3-5 days (per BMR's blog) before rolling off page 1.

In other words, do you need to include your link in the first paragraph?

BMR blogs do only show a snippet of your article. I always put my keyword (link) in the first or second sentence. This ensures the link will be visible on the blog's homepage.

Everything must have a balance, the good of the strict rule is less chances for Google to de-rank and sandbox those sites, but for me is a bit unrealistic. Elite SEOLV doesn't implement a strict rule, which I think they should tighten it up a bit, but I see no different in effectiveness of both network.

Hi all,

I'm considering using BMR, how often would you guys recommend posting fresh content to BMR?

I have an authority i'm building, and it will have about 20 posts/urls each to post via BMR, so would you suggest a post a day for each of my posts/url's?

And would you have to keep posting every day or week for ever?

Thanks!

BMR works really well for me. I usually get a site to page 1-2, then I use BMR (due to it's high PR BLs) to get it to the top of page 1.

You have to keep posting though (because the initial HIGH PR BL falls off - so you need to replace it). I do about 30 BMR posts per week (with random amount per day selected) and I use VA's to do the posting/writing. The approval rate is near 100%.

It's helped me get some tough competition KWs higher on the SERPs. It's only one solution that I use, but definitely an important one...

BTW- below shows where the posts are going for the last 30 days...

Post Page Rank Distribution:
pr1 = 21%
pr2 = 43.5%
pr3 = 24.5%
pr4 = 9.5%
pr5 = 1.5%

As you can see, the majority are PR2. But PR2 are worth a lot more than a PR0 link and the PR3,4,5 help boosting too.
