Social Monkee - Am I missing something here? Only *1* url?

So I submitted my site and came back the next day rather amazed. Being new to backlinking and all I thought it was pretty cool that this site does this.

Then I come back the next day, try to submit another 25 for the same site, and it says I can't do that.

So my question would naturally be, WHAT THE HELL?

I need a different site to submit? Are you kidding me? So wait let me get this straight. 25 links a day... except every single time you submit you need a different website?

Do most of you people own 100,000 websites?

I only have one site I care about. I need something like social monkee that will allow me to build links just to that 1 site.

Are there any other places like social monkee that will actually allow me to work on the same site? This kinda pissed me off to be honest. So in order for social monkee to be of any use to you then I'm assuming you need to own a different site for everyday you want to use it?

Or like the title says... am I missing something? Cause that just seems really stupid.

    Hi RedShifted,

    I believe you are mistaken, it isn't 1 website, it is 1 URL. If you have many pages on your website then you may never run out of URLs.

      Yea. It is also a free service, and it is good for what it is. I believe if you pay for the service, you can submit the same url multiple times.

    Unless something changed recently, I know that you can submit 1 URL (not 1 website) to 25 sites each day on a free account. Upgrade to a premium (or refer 12 members) and you can submit 3 URL's to 100 sites.

    On the flipside, I don't see why you're "pissed" about it all when this is a service that is currently offered to you at no cost.

      Yea this is correct. It is a service that's offered at no cost so nothing to get angry about. Better than doing them manually.

      Also you can get a link report and then ping those links or run them through an indexer.

    You cannot submit the SAME URL twice, but you can submit as many URLs as you have on your site. This is good for deep linking. You do not want to just build back links to your domain. Thus, social monkee is good for building back links (though not quality) to domain URL, blog post1 URL, blog post2 URL, blog post3 URL, etc...

    With Social Monkee you can use it to submit the URL of each of
    your blog posts from your site. So if you have a blog type site,
    everytime you make a post, you copy that URL into Social Monkee.

    What I want to know, is has anyone actually found that socialmonkee's backlinks helped their site or not? And I have the same question re backlinkkingdom. Both seem like good ideas, but DO THEY WORK in terms of increasing your google ranking?

      LOL today is Backlinks Kingdom and Social Monkee day,

      First of all the service as I know it is "still" free. So you can't complain.
      Second.. I am not going to repeat the above information, your only allowed to submit one URL one time. (you can't submit the same URL multiple times but different URLS from one website)

      Third.. I received an email from Colin Klinkert ( Social Monkee and Backlinks Kingdom dude) and he is changing the service at a one time 7 dollar lifetime FEE. I personally use both services and continue to use them. Even if I have to pay the 7 bones.

      @ SEOSoldier Of course I can not really tell you if its caused a major effect on my rankings because I like to diversify my links and not use just "one" source. But they are definitely quality links.

      I think the reason is for the 7 dollars is that he had a refer 12 person and get and upgrade for free thing. People were probably abusing it and signing up themselves on VPN to get the free upgrade. So I totally agree with Colin here for doing the 7 dollars lifetime fee.

      just my 2cents

        $7 lifetime fee? For the basic "free" service you mean? Because the upgrades right now are $47 for the 2nd level and close to $100 for the premium service.

        I just tried Backlink Kingdom and I found it to be a complete waste of time. "But it's free!" you say... Yes, but my time is not and this thing totally wasted my time!

        First of all just learning to use it takes 15-20 min, then it takes another 15 min or so to fill out the form and spin it...

        But the worst part is, after I spun my article using the built in spinner IT WAS TOTALLY UNREADABLE! I mean, it left out words, and didn't even MAKE SENSE! I'd be embarrassed to have my link in such a badly spun article!

        So after going through all the learning how to use it and pasting and spinning the article, it was totally unusable. They're going to have to improve their built in spinner if they want to get clients, I'm afraid. I won't even use it for free.

        Here's an example of what it was going to post for me: (I've replaced my product name with GENERIC WIDGETS so as not to violate any rules here.)

        "GENERIC WIDGETS ARE THE BEST, USE OUR COUPON CODES!


        GET THE greatest most obtainable ON GENERIC WIDGETS WITH OUR COUPON CODES! What was known the 750 series ahead of is now known the Aquaversa and also what was or the 880 series before is now ahead of the Aquaperform! or else the top quality as well as Price are the same as prior to! We've been in enterprise for enterprise 40 many years or are one of the oldest Green companies! in to NSF NSF is a consumer kind sort that tests as well as examines water filters we nevertheless reduce and also contaminants of wellness worry than any other NSF Certified filter you and also obtain. Why is NSF Certification crucial? since if your filter is not NSF Certified you truly don't know what it is filtering, or NOT filtering! But with GENERIC WIDGETS NSF Certified filters you KNOW you are getting a filter that does exactly what it specifically it does. Furthermore you are getting one of the finding filters money dollars acquire also and also that is between the between pricey to operate! "

        I mean, seriously, how embarrasing would it be had I gone ahead and posted that? And you just have to trust me, I am a professional writer and what I wrote was well written! No thanks!

          You seem to be doing a lot of moaning and groaning , with the spinner ? any spinner in essence will only be a result of its input, so i really do not know how you ended up with such drivel.

          Next if you use the first / left option you can use text from any spinner and just paste it in already pre spun, so not need for panties in a twist over the inbuilt spinner if you do not want to use it.

          What really puzzles me is the Free version only gives one Generic Widget to spin, but you have ? 2 / 3 with the title so you must have upgraded to the full membership then ? or that spin would not have run under any steam at all.

          15 minutes to learn and then a 2 second jobby each week to load some new articles and press go, it is pretty easy to use.

          With the upgrades you can also drip feed them out, and i think from memory run 5 articles a day over 150 sites with 3 links in them may be wrong on those numbers with out checking.

          I would guess it works well for most so maybe try your own spinner and just paste it in for better effect and unless your upgraded you will only get the one link per article not the 3 shown in your example.

          With anything that is automatically spun is garbage if you ask me. I spin my articles with the TBS manually. It doesn't matter what service your using to submit spun articles. If there is an auto spin, its always going to be garbage. Has nothing to do with Backlinks Kingdom.

          As far as taking 15 min, well in 2 min I am done with it.

          Is submit my manually spun articles with title, add my keywords and categories. BAM then your done.

        I never recieved the email about them charging a $7 fee. Does this only apply to new members or do existing members have to pay the fee also?

        How do you know they are definatly quality links? Some experienced Warriors have said that article links are some of the lowest quality backlinks you can get.

    with the free membership im pretty sure you can submit the same URL more than once, but you have to wait 3 days I think before you can submit it again.

    Just purchased the basic version of SocialMonkee and having submitted a single URL must confess I'm not confident in the use of spinning; nor the requirement of it if you are only submitting to 25 bookmarking sites. Having watched the video I thought the 'spun' descriptions were very poor.
    Personally I found writing my own variations very simple - All you need is the ability to find variations within phrases (which if you can't do in your head can be done using a Thesaurus). I also thought that by writing them myself I was able to keep a closer control on Grammar - which in my opinion is extremely important.
    I've not been able to test this yet but in theory to achieve 25 variations you would only need 3 Titles, and two description phrases with 3 variations (3x3x3 = 27 variations).

      Personally I think SocialMonkee is kind of worthless and might do more harm than good. As you can see from the fact that no one has written in this thread since March 2012, it's not a popular bookmarking service. Honestly I would see if you could get your money back or just write it off.

      SocialADR a much better service and there may be others. What you want is other people bookmarking your links for you on high PR (ie; major) bookmarking sites.

      IMHO.

      I totally agree that spinning is also a waste of time. 9 out of 10 times auto-spins are very bad grammar and even the BEST spins don't meet up to my standards unless I go through and manually fix them. In the end I just REWRITE. To some degree the Best Spinner is a little easier to rewrite with, but not THAT much easier unless you're doing a really long 600 word+ article. Again, these are just my subjective opinions based on my own experience. YMMV.
