backlink spamming?

Your ip address is shown in the admin panel of wordpress blogs so yes, they would be able to tell they came from the same PC.

Like Marc has said, only do one link at a time. Bookmark the page and maybe in a few weeks, go back and bookmark a another one.

If they have Akismet plugin installed, it might ban your url if it thinks you are spamming and that's very possible you're posting 3 links one after another in a short timeframe.

are you posting to a blog / social network / forum.

I guess I am a bit confused.

Ok and what if you are trying to rank for more than 1 site and not just one....
example: what if want to rank ur site DOGTRAINING.COM and catfood.com could u use the same site to do the backlinking??

just post one account on each site and find another one for you them to know that you're not an obvious spammer

Use one account. take it easy to avoid google penalize

AshleyAA
sounds like you are taking the time on each site. i just started using angelas backlinks but her recommendation was to just leave the link.

i would like to know if it really matters. what percentage of accounts get deleted if you just leave a link.

she teaches that way for a reason. would like to know if others using her list ever go back to see if the account is still active.

do you know if there is a forum for people using angelas backlinks to discuss strategies?

thanks

People sign up to a lot of stuff. Remember how much stuff U.S. President Obama was signed up to before the election? That guy was EVERYWHERE on the Internet. If Google or whoever was going to penalize people because their IP was being used in a lot of spots, then to be fair, HE should have been penalized.

How is your movement in the Google index? There is one guy who was pretty concerned about his links being indexed and didn't see it happening as much as he thought it should. Just today, though, he told me that he is on Google's Page One for his keywords. I'd recommend watching your movement and forget worrying about whether your backlinks are "indexed" or not.

I don't know how long it takes for the links to be indexed because honestly, I never look. I look for movement in Google and every, single, project I've EVER worked on is on Page One of Google. Every one. That's what I look for.

thank you for the explanation, that makes sense. if feel more confident now that i have more information.

I like Angela's package so far and her approach, but I did see a few problems with everyone piling on at the same time. One site disabled signatures because of the onslaught of one-time posters. The adult irreverent cartoon Forum about little boys from Colorado started a thread calling everyone out and quoting their barely-relevant posts with irrelevant links.

I have no idea what you mean by the Cartoon Forum, but the reason some sites were having trouble is because my packets are being given away for free by at least THREE forums. People are going to the sites and spamming them to death, unfortunately. I am taking steps to stop this by not putting forum-type sites or blogs in the packets (even though I have a GREAT Page Rank 9 "comment" backlink).

I tried to tell the forums to take my product down, but pretty much all I got was MY posts deleted and I was told to "stop complaining". As if I would simply allow them to ruin all the links for everybody else. The moderator simply closed the thread and told people to PM her for my packet. You can see this from the pictures here:





The "links" in my post were simply to my sales page, showing that what was posted on this thread was 'lifted' straight from my sales page.

For your backlink building it's always best for there to be no verifiable link between the site you post your link on, and your website. Ie: if you just use a madeup profile account and link that to your website (without the website and profile being linked) then there will be no traceable connection, and you can't be penalized.

Hi Angela,

My apologies for not making my post clearer, I just re-read what I typed and can see how it could be misread. It seems it's just a little issue of semantics.

Linking from another site directly to your website is of course absolutely fine. What I meant to say was, if the actual link building itself is directly traceable to you as the individual owner of the site, that's when you need to be cautious of spamming (ie: you do your link building from the exact same IP address as your site is hosted on).

My original impression from the OP was that she was using a Wordpress.com site and profile, logging in with that same profile, and was then making posts under that profile on other Wordpress.com websites, hence there being a direct connection to her website through her Wordpress.com account.

This may just have been me entirely misreading what Ashley wrote, which I most likely did. If Ashley has her own Wordpress site hosted on her own domain, then I absolutely cannot see any need to be worried about anything in regards to spamming.

The IP you're making these posts under Ashley will be different to the IP you're hosting your site under. There will be no verifiable connection between the two, therefore you can't be penalized. Even if your link building was perceived as being spammy, the absolute most that would happen is that a site would simply delete your posts, or your personal IP address may be added to the Akismet database. This will once again not in any way effect your website (as the IP that's hosted on is different).

Think of it like this. Let's say I was competing with you for a keyword and wanted to get you in trouble. If I could just simply spam your website to ten thousand blogs, including my own, and then make a report to your web hosting company that you're spamming my website, then that would be utter chaos wouldn't it? Fortunately, it doesn't work like that. Off-site link building, no matter how bad, cannot harm your website, just so long as there's no direct link that you're the site owner (which there won't be in your case, from the way I now understand it).

The only way you'll get in any trouble, either with Google or through your webhost, is if you do on-site optimization that's considered foul play (such as keyword stuffing, link selling, setting up doorway pages, anything like that).

But feel confident in the knowledge you can go on posting on as many blogs as you like, with links back to your websites, with the worst that can ever happen being individual site owners deleting your posts.

My apologies once again for reading this question wrongly, just thought I would clarify where I stand on this.

A backlink is NOT spam if it's relevant and useful to the post.

all you fans of angelas backlinks care to explain the strategies used when using the system?

what do you do if you want to rank for several sites? do you divide the 30 submissions between sites or do you alternate one month site a next month site b etc?

what do you do when you want to rank for several keywords? do you use 30 keywords once, or 10 keywords 3 times or do you submit 3 keywords 10 times?

do you track your keywords and keep submitting them until you are satisfied with the ranking and move on to the next ones?

i'm just trying to learn the in's and out's of this valuable resource so your help is appreciated.

thank you;
maryjane

I think its ok to use different accounts as long as you promote different products and sites. But to be safe, just make your link building natural.

Not a problem Ashley, glad it makes sense.

And MaryJane, you can build up backlinks to multiple websites through the same forums/blogs/social bookmarking sites etc, such as the ones found in Angela's pack.

I didn't mean any discourtesy 4morereferrals, I just get the feeling a lot of the posters here seem to be chiming in needlessly and this will only confuse the OP.

On a phpBB control panel you typically can't tell which members registered from the same IP. It will show, however, if there are posts from multiple IDs all using the same IP. It is a simple matter for an Admin to block not only that IP address but the entire address range for that ISP. Many Admins are reluctant to do so or don't understand the panel well enough to do so.

I haven't heard of any forums that have started tracking folks down yet, but I can say that I know some keep records of the IP addresses of spam posters, the whois data, and what was posted from those addresses.
