Thanks

  • I really like it but I don't know if it is worth the $47 a month. Everyone seems to think the best spinner is really good too and a better deal.

    Hello,
    Essentially they have a network of websites where you can spin your article to be submitted to those site on your networks.

    I've heard many great things about it and they have closed it to protect their current users from over saturation if I'm not wrong. So they are still increasing their network space but they don't accept any new registrations.

    There are also many similar services you just need to take a look around to find one you like.

    If you have blogs they pay you $1 per blog you submit to their network so you get free content as well as $1 upfront not much but it saves you time. However each article will have links on it.
    • [ 1 ] Thanks
  • Yep unfortunatly it's been closed for about a week now while Brad sort's out the traffic and article posting side and brings up the number of blog's to keep the service running smoothly!

    All in all i think once it's back up to speed and running correctly it will really out do all the other services!

  • I'm on it. The links that I've found to my articles all seem to be on crappy auto-created blogs with 0 PR.

    The final verdict is still out though. I've still got some time left on it, but at the moment I think I probably won't renew.

    I might try Linkvana. Even though it's a lot more expensive, it seems you're guaranteed links on sites with a little bit of juice.
    • [ 1 ] Thanks

    • Linkvana is good in their quality but it is more like guest posting as you have to write 1 article per backlink!

      Your better off in that case just blog commenting as it will give you the same result's and is alot quicker.

      Other alternative is Unique Article Wizard which is the same sort of thing as seolinkvine except older network and is working just right.

  • I heard from a very trusted source that Google has found the footprint on all of Linkvana's blogs so the juice has apparently stopped flowing.

    Don't quote me on that, just rumors.
  • wow thanks so much for the feedback guys!

    • I have been using them for a few weeks now. I haven't yet submitted a LOT of articles, but the few samples I added are gaining quite a few links for me.

      There are other options out there, like AMA and UAW, and they all are close to the same format. I am going to stick with SEOLV for now and will uploading a lot more articles over the coming weeks.

      The Best Spinner is simply a spinner, SEO Linkvine is a submission service. So that comparison doesn't even make sense.

      I do however use the Best Spinner to spin my articles that I submit to SEOLV as it is better than the built in spinner offered inside the SEOLV admin area.
  • It sounds similar to Free Traffic System??? If so, why not go with FTS which is totally free (has a pro version but I use the free version).
    • [ 1 ] Thanks
    • [ 2 ] Thanks
  • I am not sure what is going on with Linkvine at the moment as there seems to be a delay with submissions again.

    I hope this will sort itself out soon and maybe Brad would like to update us all when he has the time.
  • I use it for some time now, first with very good results...but right now things are getting...weird. I have articles sitting there not getting distributed for 8 days straight, and receiving articles also has stopped on my own sites for unknown reasons.

    • GeorgR - I remember when this first started you where pumping this as an affiliate offer. Have you changed your affiliate site now? I can't remember if it was SEO LV review.com or SEOLV . org, you have removed the link from your sig. But looking at both sites now the review is still the same. Which is your site again?
      • [1] reply
  • I agree with you George R.

    I have delayed going live with 10 new articles as a result of this delay.

    Let's hope to see some movement in the next few days or at least hear back from the development team.
    • [1] reply
    • Hi George and Marie A, same thing here...seems like there's a bit of a backlog. I'm not too happy about the blogs that my articles are submitted too either

      Oh and how come all the threads about lv are closed :confused:

      Vegaschk - the price used to be 47, after a few weeks they raised it to $67. I'm guessing when they reopen it will be $97.

      IMO seolv is good if you have lots of sites. If you only have one or two it may not seem worth what you pay for. I only have two sites and I'm thinking for $67 a month may be a bit too expensive. So far I've only had 2 articles that I've actually seen published. The others on the stat is not showing until now. Although I think I'm getting some positive results with the rankings (but it's really hard to tell cos I'm using other stuff too).

      There's another one - textlinks.com that's similar to linkvine. You may want to try out their 21 day free trial. I've only known about it for a few days so I can't really say if it's good or crap. Join at your own risk

  • I do it works real well and I am also an affiliate for this program. No returns on seolinkvine that also confirms how good of a product it really is.
  • You could probably start a thread in the Marketing Review Section and then you will get a lot of feedback about it by people who are current members.

    • I've tried ArticleMarketingAutomation by the PLRPro guys with great success getting search engine traffic. Their membership is in the $47. Using their spinner to prevent duplication can be time consuming, depending on how much time you spend using the spinners. I have not personally tried Jonathan's latest spinner software but it looks quite good also.

  • SEOLinkVine is Open to 50 more members!

    Got an email today, you can subscribe now for $67/montly but be quick.
    I cannot afford to pay

      Yup I also got an email supposedly they opened 50 more spots to their system. I'd join but I don't have much use at the moment since I'm not focusing much on site building at this point. You might want to give it a shot though.

      They actually started at $47 but I guess as time passed their price increased due to their popularity and sacristy.
  • AMA is basically the same as SLV but the problem I had with AMA is that it takes time for article to be approved (around only 50 approved in a month with my test article - which is not bad) and then after a month of 2, the approved number just stop increasing. I think the reason is because after the initial release of your article, your article get swarmed by other newer articles and the chances of it being reviewed by the blog owner gets lower as the day goes by. As your article get pushed lower and lower in the waiting list, most likely the blog owner will not get the chance to review your article. Since SLV use almost the same system, do any of you guys face the same thing?

    • Hmmm I am a member and I am sure this is a glitch but I have just tried to log and was greeted with

      Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Too many connections in /usr/www/users/linkmetr/seolinkvine.com/admin/config.php on line 17
      Critical database error: Connection was refused by server

      Please try again later

      So it's a "gallic shrug" from me so far I am afraid. I have had some good links to my main generic keyword but not much else. I decided to spin half and write half to see which worked most effectively. The hand written ones filtered through to approval within about three days while the spun ones (using TBS) tended to be rejected. I am not here to whinge but I am just giving an honest assessment after three weeks use and accept that the issue might be me.

      If it's me, I will need to revise my writing style perhaps. Although as copywriter of 20 years standing, I doubt that this is one area I'd have too many problems with.

      I hope you are right with your appraisal Mark and await news.
  • i gave up after 2 weeks......nothing happened.
  • this looks good......so you have good results from them?

    Linx Boss :: Fully Automated Linking
  • I tried SEOLinkVine and Niche Article Marketing for High Search Ranking - Premier Service and they both seem to offer a similar service, plus I believe you can still subscribe to AMA...
  • I use linxboss as well and can vouch for them too.
  • Have been using SEOLV for a few weeks now, its a pretty good service. Then today I try to log in and im get the following message "This account has been terminated by the Administrator." what the heck is up with that, a little bit of forewarning would have been nice.
    • [1] reply
    • Holy poop, I just logged in too and found the same message? WTF???

      Hopefully it is just a small glitch in the system. We shall see.
  • I'm using SEO Link Vine, for about a month now

    I agree, it seems to be worth the money more if you have multiple sites. I'm promoting about 6 sites with it so that's probably worth it my opinion.

    I kind experienced the same thing mentioned by JimmyRose, one of my sites dropped off Google for a bunch of target keywords and then slowly came back after about a week

    I haven't noticed any huge gains, but this is SEO we're talking about, and I'm only my second month of using SEO Link Vine, I'll probably need to give it some more time to see how it works out.

    Today though I tried to log in and it also says my account is disabled by administrator. I also tried to go to Clickbank support and it says there's no record of my order. So I went to Brad Callen's support site to submit a ticket, I'm curious to find out what is going on.

    I will say, from the "get content" side, I have to reject about 90% of the articles pushed to me for review because they read like they're written by a 5th grader, so I think if you take the time to create quality content that actually makes sense and offers something of value, you'll get picked up by a lot of the blogs because the quality will stand out quite a bit compared to the crap.

    • Yep me too, just went to submit an article and I got the same. Hope they sort it soon - last time I logged on last few of my articles were stuck on zero anyway.
    • Oh Wow, Its nice to see this!

      I went to login today to seo link vine and saw this awful message

      "YOUR ACCOUNT HAS BEEN TERMINATED BY THE ADMINISTRATOR!'

      WTF!

      When i saw that i,**** a break! No kidding

      I called click bank and they said i still have a account and not terminated. They said they would call me when they talked to the vendor.

      Its nice to see that i am not the only one dealing with this.
      It better be a Flipen glitch.

      besides that seo link vine is awesome, no doubt.

      hers the

      stays

      6 articles submitted
      over 600 words

      one of thoughs articles has been approved 54 times!

      100% spinner words, Yes i spend 4 hrs spinning each article.



      You have to think when your submitting content that
      these are not article directories, these are peoples websites

      big big difference

      great tool!

      oh and buzzle sucks, never approve articles and dont tell you why!

      Seo link vine is great expect for this login error
    • Yea, I am rejecting at least 90% of the articles that are submitted for my blogs also. I am glad that they offer the option of manually approving blog posts.

  • It is up and running now but everything is 'stuck' and I see no new submissions.
    • [1] reply
    • I'm getting new submissions everyday. Now a couple of topics are slower than others finance vs dresses. How many categories did you pick? I am getting great results
  • I have used SEOLinkVine for just over a month and I am happy with the service.

    I have submitted articles that have been posted to other blogs - these were all "spun" articles.

    I am getting articles that I can post to my blogs. I am not really satisfied with most of the articles so a lot of them are rejected. The articles that I do accept are well written.

    I like the fact that I can direct - to some degree - where my articles will be posted and I can also identify which articles I accept for posting on my blogs.

    Lewis
  • Hey quick update - I'm able to long into SEO Link Vine again - support said they ran into a glitch and it's fixed now

    woohoo!
  • I too had the account termination notice as well. I was furious cuz I didn't get a notice why but took the benefit of the doubt, contacted supported, asked why I was banned and voila, glitch uncovered, fixed and I am back in! yay!
  • Since this is now in the review, section, here is my experience with the concept, of SEO linking using a third party platform,

    I found that the service, is not for the casual user, but perhaps for a more advanced user, I can say that it does appear to be closed to new members,

    I do not know if this is some kind of scarcity marketing concept, but what ever it is I do not think much of the concept of using scarcity to build a business.

    These days, if you have the money you can build any service capable of supporting as many members as you could ever want so there is no need of ever closing because you only have 100 members,

    I just dislike the concept and approach it was a real turn off, just my thoughts, and hopefully this is still the review section,.

    have a good day. all.
  • sorry guys. my developers were working on another system update and for some reason (I have no idea) it caused that message to appear when anyone tried logging in. As soon as I noticed it, which was pretty fast... because we got 100 billion tickets.
    We fixed it. All should be good now. Sorry for the inconvenience. I gave my guys a nice punch to the chin for all of you :-)

    Brad
    P.S. Tim, I wish that was the case. We close it because we would have TOO many paying members and not enough blogs to post content to. I make 100% sure that we have more than enough blogs so that the paid users will get plenty of links. Trust me, it's not a scarcity play at all. I would LOVE to have a bazillion paying customers... but taking care of current customers is more important to me than making more and more money in the short run. If we continued getting more and more paid customers at the rate we were when we opened the site, the results for paid users would not be where I want them. That is why we close the site. So I can focus on building out the blog network bigger and better for "current" customers, keeping everybody happy. When we re-open the site, it's because we've added plenty more blogs to keep up with the added users. I won't re-open until very specific blog numbers are reached.

    • Thanks for the update Brad!
    • Brad,
      When you talk about building out the network are you talking about adding quality blogs to it, owned by other people? I hope that is the case and not just a bunch of spammy looking blogs that won't provide any link juice. I have been using it for around a month or so and have received over 100 links for my articles. However, not many are being picked up by the search engines yet but I'm cautiously optimistic. I just hope the articles are going on quality sites that provide some link juice.
  • Thanks for the explanation, part of my slight irritation was that I was one of the very first to get to the door, in fact I signed up as one of the first 100, but some glitch caused a problem and when I went back to check out the content side, I was greeted with the sorry notice, it stuck in my craw, I can see now that it was not intentional,

    It was just a coincidence, that being one of the first few people to get to the site, I ended up in the cold, but such is life, anyway thanks for explaining.

    have a great day.

    • Hi Brad,

      Nice to see you jumping in here.

      Can you advise 'ball park' what time scale you are looking at for the updates you plan and also when Linkvine will be 'up and running' properly again.

      I appreciate your time.

  • i *know* this is not a support-thread...but..

    I have several sites on there for receiving articles, and i did NOT change the XMRLPC posting settings. It posted for a while all right - but all of a sudden it seems not be able to connect to some sites anymore. (Yes, i filled out a ticket already)
  • Thanks for response Brad.

    Someone from the office has put in a ticket so will wait and see.

    We only spin not less than 70%

    • Started browsing through this thread and was amazed to see the actual Brad Callen posting lol. I keep forgetting he's a real guy; it's like he's a celebrity to me. Anyway, except for the occasional login issues, SEOLV is great. I get alot of new backlinks every single day, probably because I have rewrite percentages around 50% and I slightly overextend my categories for potentially more acceptance of my articles. My rankings have gradually but drastically increased since I started. With 17 articles in the system, here are my stats...Ironically, after I typed that, I went to log in to copy and paste the stats and got an error. I'll post them on here tomorrow if it's working then.

      Also thinking about joining AMA soon. Do they allow spinning?
  • Well all I have been getting is this message:

    "Your account does not have a valid subscription. Cannot publish the article."

    Obviously not correct as I have been published over 1000 times so far.

    I am waiting to hear from support.

    This is probably why none of the articles have moved at all in last few days. NOT happy.
  • The key features of Seolinkvine are that you can add links within the body, you get a decent number of low pr (or NO PR) user blogs to put articles on and you'll occasionally get a blog link from a site in your niche. Article spinning is pretty standard.

    I've got one article submitted on 4-27 that's got more than 90 incoming links. I've got another one submitted on that same day (in another niche) with less than 60.

    It seems like I'm getting much better results than I did with Article Automation, but there is no real way to tell if those numbers are really true.

    If you check your backlinks with Yahoo it only looks like you receive 2 or 3 links from each spun article submitted.

    IMO, the only way any of these blog networks work is if it helps you to vary your linking profile. So if all you have is links from blog networks (no matter how many different blog networks you sign up with) then it won't work.

    If you have a quality site why risk getting your site footprinted as being apart of a blog network?

    I have sites in similar networks, but only because I want content published automatically.

    Getting articles from Seolinkvine is better than content scraping, but you still have a small chance of getting your site footprinted.

    If you have a popular site then the risk is much higher.

    • Ive noticed I'm not really getting much for backlinks as well. Supposedly, I've several hundred published on a few articles, but I maybe have 10 links from crap blogs for each article.

      I was just rebilled, so this will be the month to see whether or not I extend to the 3rd month. As of right now, it doesn't look like I will.
  • Also, is the site hanging for anyone else?
    • [2] replies
    • Mate........it hangs more than hangman does.........I login and click on stats.....hang......check rankings......hang.....try and click any other link......hang.........I thought it was just me and my computer but I guess not.....wish they would fix it because I hate having to keep trying to login to check stats etc...after it hangs I just shut down the window and try again and hope I can....I'm like a few here, I'll try it for maybe a month more but if I haven't seen anything better then I'll just leave.

      Sure I've got a few links but the blogs are no PR and some of them are just plain crap blogs like this one http://zebobloger.tk... I mean do I really spin my articles to 100% so they end up on crap like this?

    • I've been using seolinkvine for a little over a month now. So far so good as far as the service is concerned.

      My only gripe is the technical side of things. There are times when the site hangs for eons. I have the same issue as some as well when it comes to article distribution.

      It seems uneven. Some of my articles get published right away, while others take up to a week before they start to get published.

      So far I've received a slight boost in the SERPS so I'm going to wait it out.

      The main issues right now are:

      -load times (sometimes the site will not load at all)
      -distribution (even when following Brad's advice)
      - no support forum/support desk can seem irrate at times

      here's to a solid service once the dust settles.
      • [1] reply
  • I have similar problems to most of the posters here as well.

    I shall probably see how it goes for another month.
  • Its not that great, the network is full of ****ty no PR sites, and content isn't really distributed on related sites. But this can be said for all the link networks out there
  • I recently switched from UAW to using SEOLV for all my sites. I trust it's a good linking system solely based on Brad Callen's reputation. However, I'm not getting any links from blogs with any decent PR. I believe it's too early to tell if SEOLV will be as good as Brad stated in the last pre-launch. I guess we will see over time if it's truly worth it. My experience with UAW system was awful! Clunky and time consuming, but the links did boost my site up in the SERPS
  • [DELETED]
  • I've been using SEOLinkvine for a little over two months now and have been generally satisfied.

    This was my first attemt with a blog network, so I didn't really know what to expect. I did know that this was not a magic pill or overnight #1 ranking tool. There is no such thing in SEO.

    What SEOLinkvine does is much like an article marketing campaign. It's a way to get your content out there on a bunch of websites. It's comparable in my opinion to submitting an article to hundreds of article directories, besides that there is less restrictions to follow.

    The cool thing about a network like this is that your backlinks continue to grow without any involvement on your part after you submit your article. That's great if you have many websites.

    Ok, so how has it worked for me?

    First of all, the software is very easy to use. I write three similar articles (or buy PLR, but unique is better), and then spin them for submission with my article submitter (Milan's AAS). I rotate the resource box around a 3-4 keywords and paste it straight into the WYSIWYG editor in SEOLinkvine. Takes only a few seconds. Then you have to write headlines and here I wish Brad would have kept the {|}, so could just paste the spun headlines straight in, instead of having to write one on each line. After that you choose your categories and other options. All in all, only takes a minute or two to do.

    The article is then sent out for approval to the member blogs. I generally get a very high acceptance rate (90%+). The number of blogs I get published on vary between topics. My number one article got around 100 publishes in a month, while some seem stuck forever at only a few. On average, I would say 30-40 links. I think that's decent. It's impossible to say how many will be indexed and found as backlinks. Not more than 20%-30% is my experience. But that doesn't have to mean they are not counted.

    My results have been quite good. As I expected, SEO Linkvine is great for going after a new keyword. I've jumped from positions like 70-80 to around 20-30 in a short time. Or from 27 to 7 for a low competition long tail keyword.

    That's good in my book. This system is not for going after highly competetive keywords. It's for getting the base links for your targeted keywords. Anchor text is so important and that's what SEO Linkvine delivers. It tells Google that you have a site which should be considered for that keyword.

    I doubt SEO Linkvine is going to deliver any #1 results for competetive keywords, but it's good for long tail keywords and low competetion keywords. For that last push, I'd rather get thousands of profile links.

    In the end, I see SEO Linkvine as another way to get the most out of your content. I like the fact that if I write three articles I can submit them to hundreds of article directories first, then easily paste the article into SEO Linkvine and get another 50-100 backlinks, then fire up SENuke (or do it manually) and get a linkwheel with the same spun article.

    So, I think it's worth the money, particularly if you have many sites, but can't say if it's better than the other blog networks.
  • Seolinkvine is a good service to build quantity and qualiy backlinks o your site. Good thing about this program is that you build links from different sites with different IP addresses.

    • I must admit I have been very lazy with SEO Linkvine although I now have a few articles ready to spin and submit over the coming days.

      What I have noticed over the past 2 weeks while I have not submitted any is that a keyword with 15,000 exact searches each month has steadily been climbing the serrps (even with no submissions).

      I can only assume this is from the articles already submitted which the SE,s are slowly picking up each day.

      Keyword started at page 18 or 20, levelled off at between 10 - 12 and has since climbed to page 5, that is with no more submits in over 2 weeks.

      I have 6 articles ready to submit for this and another keyword so Im pretty confident of hitting page 1 very soon.

      Even better news is I was just spying on a competitors site with sem rush and this site apparently gets 200,000 hits a month for the related keywords I,m going for

    Hey guys, I tried to get SEO link vine and it looks like its closed for article submissions to get links. Anyone here using them? Can you tell me how their system is so I know if to buy it when they re-open.
