Angela/Paul's Backlinks versus Xrumer

Here's a scenario:

There's a link building service that offers $50 for 135 PR4+ DoFollow backlinks, guaranteeing to index more than 85% of the backlinks created (using links similar to Angela/Paul's).

Both services offer profile forum links. The backlinks are not contextual within relevant articles but are just standalone profile links.

So why would you choose to purchase the $50 service if you can get a big blast of 20K+ with a natural indexation rate over several weeks?

What is the value of the $50 backlinks in comparison to the others?

    Its nonsense. The PR4+ will be the home page. The PR of page that the link will be on will be either 0 or n/a ... ie worthless. PR is given per page not per site.

      Bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzztttttt. wrong answer, try again.

      I might die of shock if people actually cared about OPs questions around here. If you can't answer it, move on.

      To the OP:

      Obviously there are costs involved. Xrumer costs $540, plus if you want to really use it you'll spend a couple hundred a month hosting it, etc. If one has the bank for it and the inclination to learn how to use it, then that of course is an option.

      Also note that Xrumer, like other automated software, typically have low success rates due to the fact that it can't deal with the ins and outs and little variances between sites. This is especially true for super high PR sites. Of course, if you send out 40k links, only so many have to stick to make them worthwhile.

      To be honest though, for a brand new site, I just typically don't see the need for something on as large a scale as xrumer.

    But do you know why these links are better than an xrumer blast?

    They both useless. the xrummer will also be on PR0 or n/a profile. They will mostly also be deleted by forum admins and mods.

      Again, BS.

      Some might, sure, but if you know what you are doing you will have a very high stick rate. If you really think most forum owners care, then I've got a bridge to sell you in San Fran.

      In other news, are there threads on here that don't get hijacked? It is getting to epic proportions.

          The incorrect portion of your statement is that the link is worthless.

    Which links are better to get? Angela and Paul high PR profile links with anchor text done manually or Xrumer post blast with anchor which is auto spam on thousands of sites? Or do they equally hold same value? I need to diversify my links and was either thinking of angela high pr links or just getting an xrumer blast done.? Which way should I go? I don't want to do both.

      So you think spamming forums is legit?

      Wait for the first class action suit from forum owners and then see if its legit.

            and ... in another year - thats exactly where you'll be ... still discussing it.

            cbpayne - your crusade here and elsewhere has reached unhealthy levels. I hope you dont give yourself a stroke obsessing over this issue. U stand as much chance stopping this as the RIAA does for file sharing. Or email spamming.

            Besides that - crying about a new registrant putting a backlink in/on a profile page that rarely sees the light of day, just seems petty.

            As far as worthless ... LOL nice try. NICE FUD tactic - but that tripe only scares the newbs off. Sadly they do work.

            Perhaps you should take your crusade to googles doorstep, cuz until they stop letting them work, they're going to get used. And work they do ... quite well.

              I guess it depends on your overall SEO goals. Angela backlinks are good and you can do it manually or outsource it to someone else. With Xrumer you can get thousands of backlinks at one blast but you need to verify whether the links are valid. Some of the links may be deleted since moderators or forum owners are able to detect automated profile creation and link submission.

              When it comes to link building, the key here is to do it naturally and consistently, it doesn't matter how long does it take just make sure they are natural to the eyes of Google. There is not point of having so much of links that are not relevant to your website. It may just hurt your ranking though.

              I hope this helps.

                Xrumer blast, without question. Profile backlinks are pretty weak, so doing 10-15 by hand really isn't worth it. Since profile backlinks are near worthless it's a matter of QUANTITY over quality.

                This is just my opinion from years of experience. I'm sure others will disagree.

                Edit: To clarify, my preference is neither. But if you had to absolutely choose, then the Xrumer blast would be more beneficial. But if your goal is to create thousands of potentially spammy backlinks then just pick up Scrapebox for $57 and reverse engineer your competitors. After a few hours you'll have hundreds, possibly thousands, of auto approve blog posts that you can blast your comments onto.

                PS: I do NOT personally use Scrapebox in this way. I use it for harvesting internal links and checking PR of dofollow blogs that I come across. Then I manually comment on high PR posts, actually providing value.

    No, I wasn't spamming because I mainly used websites not forums and if I did use forums I didn't post anything.. I will say that 95 percent of people trying to make money online use the forums as a way to get traffic to their websites or blogs.. So do you call that spamming too?? I use the forums to get information not to spam and I just tried those backlinks to try it out.. I am still new to this kind of stuff..

      Sounds like links on your forums would be quite valuable. Could you give me a list?

      And your point is?

      While the US has quite strict legislation regarding spam (but no executive clout or will to enforce it) the rest of the world hasn't.

      Virtual property does not exist in federal terms. Someone from Lithuania spams your forum. You're going to need to use Lithuanian law to sue them - and the catch is..Lithuania doesn't have any anti spam law, and in the forseeable future it never will have.

      Everyone spams to some extent. Writing articles with very similar content to someone elses is spam (even 100% re-written - if it's been said before you are either stealing the intellectual ideas or propagating spam -take your pick)

      In fact anything other than 100% original THOUGHT (not content - THOUGHT) is spam.

      Sending the same article to more than one site - SPAM
      Publishing a video on several site SPAM
      Re-purposing your own or someone elses content for "distribution" SPAM
      Bookmarking your backlinks SPAM

      In fact, just about every time you press Cntrl C and later Cntrl V - you are creating spam - even if that process is a metaphorical one in your head.

      Where you draw the line is up to you.

      Fact is Xrumer works. A decent setup can hit half a million accounts a night. 70% do get deleted or never found. The balance is 150,000 links.

      Thanks to Kazlas for pointing out the PR page error.
      If you get a link on Microsofts site - no matter WHERE it is (an article about updating Windows 98se to WIndows Millenium maybe - as I have ) you will benefit from a PR8 link.)

      No link actually transfers "itself" tou your site. They all get pushed through the algorithm, but what gets pushed through the algorithm is the sites PR.

      Google Matt Cutts PR debate on Yahoo videos, he explains it in about the third vid down.

Backlinking backlinks. doing both profile and posting. and also putting the profiles in an rss feed to get them indexed. Numerous tests on different domains. DO NOT WORRY ABOUT XRUMER

    A followed link is a bonus, even if it has no PR. Why are people so obsessed with PR?

    As for the spammers comment, have a look at this post about that exact subject and what Rand Fishkin of SEOmoz said the other week, then come back here and apologise for talking utter rubbish.

    The guys ranking above you are probably not so sweepingly naive.

    Spam is unsolicited. If Admin's don't want want people participating in their forum's where they allow profile and signature links, then they should stop offering the ability to do such. I will only make a post if I have something worth contibuting. I don't go throughout forums, saying buy my this or go here...As other posters have said...whther you agree or not, until Gooogle thinks they are a waste of time, they will still be indexed

    I believe, as many do, that spam means you are posting, probably annoying people, desperately trying to get people to visit your "money site".
    I think that a link in a signature in an otherwise thoughtful post is not spam. And, especially, a link to your site on an "about me" page that hardly anyone will ever see, is definitely not spam.

        Man Kazlas, I'm glad your here mate.

        THere are people with 8 or 12 Xrumer servers around. They could wipe out entire networks in a day if this nonsense about "poor quality links" was true.

        If a stale site gets a massive influx of similar links. Google will unshuffle it and examine it.

        The worst that it will do is IGNORE too many links of the same type.

        Like you said, taking down competition by spamming links from R rated websites all over your competition would be the simplest thing in the world if this worked.

        Peoaple have tried as well - and it doesn't work (not in the medium or long term anyway)

    I have a cheaper paul & angela style backlink package also higher PR if you want to check out my sig. It is manually built so it will take a few days because I have days worth of orders in line already. But, as everyone said, they have a little bit more value then normal Xrumer links, but the key thing is they are indexed much more easily. If you can index them with your own tools, I would just go with Xrumer. I provide both kinds of packages if you want to check em out, and link pyramids.

        Actually you can automate paul and angela backlinks as well and that is what many do.

        The High pr links are also only on the front page. They carry value but not as much. Quite personally if you spend $50 I'd prefer to get 10 000- 20 000 links Pr0-8 than having 100 links pr 4+ on the home page.

        Additionally you can easily ping the links for added index rate.

          I didn't read all the posts on page ONE. So if I repeat something... Deal with it.

          Profile links suck. In my opinion. Scrapebox eats Xrumer. In my opinion. Why would you waste money on a monthly service you could do yourself?! Good question. The overwhelming popularity and influx in forum profile backlinks is ridiculous. From my experience few stick or are even indexed, and majority are deleted relatively quickly.

          Don't worry about PR or Dofollow/Nofollow. Why don't you just use Scrapebox to reverse engineer all your competing sites backlinks and go out and find yourself a couple thousand AutoApprove blogs to leave comments/backlinks on?!

          I bought ONE of Angela's packets and then canceled my subscription. It's a joke, really, the step-by-step instructions depicting how to create the forum profile backlinks. Majority of the time you can't even view a forum profile unless you're logged into that forum...

            This thread has been a good read so far. I've been considering doing a dripfeedblast on a new site I'm developing, but after reading this I'm not sure if it's worth it.

            I was reverse engineering the backlinks of some of my competition today and found a lot of good places to get links from on my own, I'm not sure a drip feed blast would be worth anything, really.. I was going to blast my web2.0 sites with it but now I'm thinking of painting my hat just a tid-bit lighter

    Paul and Angela Pros

    * They work – proven, beyond a shadow of a doubt, no gimmicks, no hard sell, plain and simple, Paul and Angela’s technique works. Well, there’re certainly a lot of links to have and for not much outlay – link packs are relatively cheap and the old subscription was just $5.00 a month!
    * You can have them quickly – Paul and Angela choose aged authority sites for quick indexing.
    * It’s really easy – in fact these days, Paul and Angela will do it all for you and then send you the report – with prices starting at under $60.00.
    * Their system has been revised to minimize the number of forum owners automatically deleting dummy accounts.
    * With a little extra effort (add a photo, make a couple of posts to the forums in the first few weeks) you can avoid losing up to 50% of your backlinks in the early days.
    * You may receive a quick (if not sustained) jump in your SERP position so, for sales or timely promotions, it can be a great option.

    Paul and Angela Cons

    * “All five of my sites have been de-indexed by Google – HELP” This is an actual forum thread, in a real life discussion forum on this method and it’s not the only one. The very thought of it makes my stomach turn and it might be “con” enough for you to run away screaming from Paul and Angela! When it comes down to it, Paul and Angela sell spam. It is spam all dressed up in a nice white hat, but underneath, it’s still spam and it’s still creating patterns that can be detected by the Google spam squad. If you’re here for a good time not a long time, then party hard with Paul and Angela until the endless summer ends abruptly – but if you’re looking for a steady, secure, white hat future for your business, Paul and Angela may not make suitable bed fellows.
    * The great debate about whether the URL must contain the same keywords as the backlink rages on (i.e. the site is from your niche). In my experience, it doesn’t make a scrap of difference but there is a sizable contingent who believes that the only valuable link comes from a related site, Paul and Angela’s method does not cater to this.
    * Careful forum owners can smell your spam and delete you before you can even finish the sign up process.
    * They won’t help you to organically grow your site so if, as the links fade and many stop being indexed, you will need to buy more to keep your SERP position. If you focused on quality content, over the long term, your links would grow organically and for free.
    * Everybody’s doing it….the best reason to stop! Once the whole world catches on, it’s time to find the next thing that works because by that time, Google has caught on too – the longer the technique is used, the better your chances of getting Google-slapped out of existence.

    This is truly a tricky thing to get ones head around. I have one site that ranks for over 1200 keywords a month (according to google analytics) and appears on the front page for some of the most competitive keywords (stock market niche) and I've never bought 1 backlink pack or even attempted to do anything of the sort.

    I've been reading up on xrumer and scrapebox and I'm getting more and more confused. It seems the number 1 'trick' is to provide incredible content on your site as your first option. 2nd option is to then create solid content on the top article directories that link deeply to your main pages plus of course your home page.

    Is all this 'massive backlink' idea over rated or should I continue trying to find a path among the many 'secret's and 'lies' currently being peddled out there?

      There's more to life than Forum Profile links that half the time don't get indexed, don't stick, and get deleted. Just make sure you can view your Profile page when you LOG OUT!

  • I use Paul's links and like them so far. I've used Angela's in the past and have seen results, a couple of her links made it to my "linked to" data in webmaster tools. And registering for a Forum and adding 2-3 links to a signature or bio is not spam. Do not get it twisted bruh! It's only spam when you post 5-10 times a day

    I would rather outsource the links vs xrumer because not a lot of people know this but the hype of xrumer is dieing out because no one is making long-term progress.

    I have outsourced my backlinks package, that I've built, and it cost me much less for greater results than if i was to automate with xrumer... To me... that's the BEST ROI... Spend less and make more... If someone offers that to you, take the deal!

      Naturally, it depends on what is working for you and to keep the mindset that you really don't care what is working or not working for others. Domains, websites, products, industries, markets, niches, USP's, landing pages, upsells, etc will work differently for everyone so the only way to tell what works for you is to test, test, TEST. Don't expect ANYONE in their right mind to spill the whole beans in a public forum. Personally, I neither had success with Xrumer blasts, scrapebox or Angela & Paul's lists. All of which provided temporary results for my particular niche, approach and market. IMO Google is well on to lists like Angela & Paul. Seriously, what are the odds of say 500 sites having the same backlinks from hundreds of forums. Even if you mix up your links, the odds of so many sites having backlinks on the same hundreds of forums is a dead giveaway the links are NOT natural. As for Xrumer, that leaves as many footprints as stepping in B.S.!

    This thread is brilliant, I love the Forum/Troll owner with his inaccurate information. I bet he has a tattoo of the G in a superman emblem!

    To answer simply:

    Both are good. But you don't need xrumer unless you have so many websites.

    From my experience, the SERP boost of 5000 xrumer blast(I mean the blast & not the number of links) is roughly equal to a 100 Anjela, paul links. Price wise also both cost same ($15 - $20) if you outsource.

    Just decide which one suits you (xrumer or Anjela Paul).

    excellent thread, thanks everyone!

    Question: - is the discussion focussing on angelas links and xrumer because looking at getting .edu type or PR7,PR* /authority links are out of the price range for people in this discussion?

    Im told that one PR8 link may be worth up to 1000 profile links (which are all PR0 by their nature). And as for the .edu type links ...

    Why are these not being discussed here? They can be bought too (even on fiverr.com I see) - so what would be the best value of all?

    All the best

    Sam

    PS The discussion about spamming on profile pages was hysterical :-)
