100,000 Visitors With NO Backlinks

lol, it depends on where he's posting also.

Articles to sites like hubpages and ezinearticles won't do much. But if he can post to news sites and sites like forbes.com then of course he could be getting that much traffic


Also, his post says he's working on a book.... He may just be building some hype in order to sell it. But if not, then that's pretty awesome

That's fairly impressive.

I think with 1500 articles, he has answered the question how he did. If one can write 1,500 articles in well research keywords one can achieve that.

Heh, smart guys... diving into japanese language

you have misunderstood that. He built those articles on his OWN site!

yes, but in his second project he just built 15 articles and also got 100k visitors, so he actually did something different here...

guys, he claims not having used any kind of that stuff, its just content distribution to his website!

If you do a quick analysis of that one post he has:

405 tweets & 1 stumble.
103 comments so he's getting traffic

He's doing something right I think. Another indication that what he's doing is working is......wait for it.....wait....you found his post too. :rolleyes:

yes, i found his post too, on google, searching for the exact term "100,000 visitors per month"

you refer to his blog with those tweets, but he got his 100k visitors to another website in another langauge: japanese!

He must be a professional excellent writer then if not an expert on that field.

I agree with ichl13. He may have used the other powerful traffic methods.

I don't think this can be real... But, lets assume he is using email marketing to promote his website! You won't build even a SINGLE backlink, but you can get thousand of visitors. But now... The problem is that he is getting these visitors again and again... Well, maybe the power of "from mouth to mouth" or... I don't know. Pretty strange for me!

I did this too..

And got natural backlinks made for me.

All you who think you need backlinks for traffic aren't correct. On a large, high quality, content filled site.. backlinks are the least of your worries.

His site will have thousands by now, made naturally.

Think: Content is King.

Backlinks are for people WHO KNOW what they're doing, for those that don't; go for content, otherwise SEO is your complete and utter waste of time.

In his post he doesn't mention anything related to email marketing.

And yes, content is king but I think if everything is really correct what that blog
owner said, then content is not king, it is emperor!

Again: He says that he reached 100k visitors with his second project with
just 15 posts! And his traffic soared to 4000 visitors/day within days not months!

There is nothing in that blog post that indicates that no backlinks were created.

I will say targeting keyword is the main emperor. Because it brings you the quality traffic for a blog.

They went after longtail keywords, & expanded on any decent traffic keywords.

Then he goes on to describe a silo, without actually saying the word silo:
Sounds like someone has been reading the SEO forums.

Perhaps he is submitting his content to a site like reddit.com

read comment 95, second parapgraph, he says that he didn't do any linkbuilding.

ok, that's nice. did you also use silo structuring or how did you structure your posts?
440 posts are not less, this guy did it with just 15 posts (still unbelievable imo).

yes, but I do. I had posted a comment on his post, which is comment 90



yukon, you are right, he is using silo structuring.

ok, so for the permalinks you just used "%postname%"?

ok, and you did no other kind of promotion to your website? have
the traffic poured in just by ranking higher for long tail keywords over time?

when could you see a rise in traffic? after you posted how many articles?

Usually these success stories leaves some important parts out of sight.

We don't know how much visitors from which country, what niche etc.
For example I used to have "counter strike" related website which ranked well in India, Pakistan, Vietnam and other similar countries. I got around 300,000 visitors a month. impressive right?

Here's the worst part. Nearly no CPA offers for these countries and Adsense pays $0,01 for click. I got around 15-30k clicks a month and I made around $400 from this website. A lot? No! Because this website required a good VPS and other maintenance so I made like $200 in profit.

Still good but it's better to say "300,000 visitors a month" than "Duck (with F) I made only $200"

I ended up selling this website right before Panda/Penguin kicked in which nearly killed that website.

I hope you get my point. There's definitely something more going on behind the scene.

Wow thanks for the info is this still relevant I will have to give it a try

Haha ! I gave the try from yesterday posted 4 articles and 20 Views and It's increasing like hell, Just mind it always "Content is the King", That quote also awesome a piece of contents grabs 100000 traffics ,

yeah, of course, but it's a difference between if you build them or they are built for you

increasing like hell? how much do you have since posting the 4 articles? how many posts did you have before posting the 4 articles?

Yeah, unique and informative content is an important factor for SEO's to get visitors and increase traffic for a website.

Nick- Just read your article on the experiment but there's no mention of revenue or cost. It sounds like it was a team effort and a lot of time was devoted to drilling down on every aspect of subject and then following through with appropriate action.

Creating a name for yourself is always good and picking a trend or new product is a great way to find high traffic subject matter.

That being said it doesn't always translate directly to revenue.

I was so proud of my new site getting 11,815 this month after 4 month of work and fast rising. Last month was 5.500
Wow 100.000 is a lot !!

My newest site has over one million visitors without building backlinks. I do have some natural backlinks due to quality content and over 10,000 pages. Getting 100K with 15 articles is likely short-term viral luck or a hidden method. That is not a basis to build a business unless you don't really care about success and just hope to get lucky.

So while you can get a lot of traffic without building links, keep in mind this won't necessarily work in every niche. You still have to be selective about that. Just because a few people do this in a few niches doesn't mean it's replicatable in every niche.

I also have several articles with over 5000 visitors and some over 10K. But you can't just do that with every single article. You have to think about averages, not high and low extremes.
