GSA Churn and Burn Questions - Please help!

Hello,

I am equipped with GSA and a premium list with high quality links.

I'm also working a Product Launch promo. Since most of my profits will be limited to the first 1-2 weeks, I see this as a perfect candidate for the "Churn and Burn" method, and I'm going to use it.

BUT as a GSA newbie, I want to make sure that I have the correct approach to setting up a GSA campaign using the Churn and Burn method.

If anyone is experienced with GSA and/or this method, I would TRULY appreciate your input. Here is my current approach:

1. Create my product promotion site (aka my "temporary money site")

2. Create GSA campaign and load my list. I won't say too much about this list but it's very limited and had great reviews from experienced GSA users, so I went for it, especially since I don't know how to scrape for a list anyway.

3. Since the list includes a lot of Article links, I was going to largely target the Contextual engine, and my campaign is setup specifically for these engines: Article, Social Bookmark, Social Network, Web 2.0, and Wiki links.

* Please note all backlinks I'm building will point to ONE URL (my product review home page). I have both GSA Captcha Breaker and Captcha Tronix membership, so I can confirm that I'm setup to get these backlinks.

3. Write my own article to be used with GSA campaign. I will manually spin the article and then plug it into The Best Spinner afterwards. The final spun version will go into GSA. Usually I get Minimum length ~500 words and max length ~700 words.

4. Create my keywords which are variations of the product name like "download product name", "product name reviews", "product name bonus", etc. Since this is Churn and Burn, I do not know how critical it is to be diligent about my keyword setup and distribution, but my current setup is:

[Check] Use URL variations with 20%
[Check] Use keywords as anchor text
[Check] Generic anchor text 10%
[Check] Domain as anchor text 20%
[Check] Anchor text variations 35% (e.g. GSA becomes gsa or Gsa)

5. Setup my private proxies (have 20)

6. I do not have a VPS so I use my PC which is a good system anyway. When I'm at my PC, I will run 80 threads and when I'm not, I'll go up to 200 threads. I have a full time job so I'm away from the PC quite a bit anyway.

Here are my questions/concerns:

1. Since this is Churn and Burn, can I leave this campaign running for 24 hours? Or do I still want to spread out the link building?

2. With Churn and Burn, should I target other types of backlinks too? As mentioned earlier right now I'm mostly doing Articles, but maybe I should throw in blog comments, etc.

3. My current setup uses 1 highly spun article, but it's pretty obvious after the campaign has been running that my GSA articles still resemble each other, but again since this method is only intended for a quick and effective ranking boost, maybe this is irrelevant.

I'm also thinking that it might actually be more beneficial to use this method on Blogger, Wordpress.com, or Google sites, for the same reason that we spam YouTube videos: Spam link building is more effective when the TLD is an authority domain already. And that's the reason I'm going to split test this Affiliate Marketing campaign with 1 TLD, 1 Wordpress.com property, 1 blogger property, and maybe even a Google Site.


Thanks so much guys. I always believe in giving back, so if you guys are interested, after I'm confident in my GSA setup and start the campaign, I will also update everyone on which version of the review had the best results.

    It kinda looks like you have all the basics covered.

    Have you tried looking at sudoranks churn and burn tutorials? He seems to be the authority on the technique on the BHW Forums

    Seems alright. but many ppl have failed to rank site with GSA alone after latest google update (They have ranked the site with GSA before).

    So try mixing up some solid authority backlinks too.

    I hate to be negative, but I think you'll have a little more trouble being successful with this than what you and others suspect...I don't want to discourage you though.

    If it offers you any consolation OP I am ranking a 1 page parasite page with spun content on the page, 100% spun content backlinks, tons of forum profiles, blog comments, every kind of garbage you can image. Put out about 50k links the first week.

    It's lasted about 2 months hasn't burnt yet. Hope I can get another month out of it before the algo catches up.

      I just wonder how it look like now, cos I`ve heard last update hit C&B technique, I made my own tests on new, and old domains it seems the new domains are impossible to rank in C&B these days, but strange thing happened when I want to rank a completely new subdomain on 1 years old domain, it still works but I have burned them fast cos main domain had only PR0 and wasn`t gentle treated by my in the past (((:

      No, it's a link building tool called GSA Search Engine Ranker.

    You should take this to the black hat forums.

    The most painful part of it all is, the system may not work and what happens to your site?

    You start clean up process or setup new one each time you burn it?

    Just to raise your hope a little:

    If you look over the SERP, there are many sites ranked for their respective terms and sitting up there comfortably. No one says it can't be yours.
