Hello,

I am confused by all the conflicting information I find on this forum...

I would LOVE for someone who really knows what they are talking about to answer a few quick questions for me and for EVERYONE trying to do SEO in 2012...

please PM me if the answer would be better left unseen

1. Is/are there ANY blog networks that are:
a. safe to use
b. produce results

I have tried:

ALN 2.0 and SEOdestiny...wasnt able to measure progress/results with either...

2. What is the BEST way to build BULK backlinks? I am competing with sites that have 100,000-1,000,000 backlinks...I have tried:
a. dripfeedlinks.com(low quality crappy blog spam with obl in the thousands)
b. dripable.com(low quality crappy blog spam with obl in the thousands)
c. scrapebox
d. senukex

3. Edu Blogs...I have purchase several EDU blogs and edu blog packets...so far none of my rankings have increased for any of the sites I've used them with AND one of my sites moved from page 1 to page 2...this was the only factor that I changed....

Do edu blogs help??? Am I being impatient???

I sincerely hope that atleast a few WAR ROOM members ping in here...

THANK YO IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR COMMENTS!!!

    • Google is looking for the following:

      1) Unique IP growth diversity
      2) varying anchor tags
      3) Link type diversity

      I would not use article directory network or any black hat software since they fail at these 3 key factors. After Penguin, you need a new strategy.

  • The best advice I could give would be to stop building links for the sake of influencing your rankings!

    Build a link because it will send you TRAFFIC - do this enough times and you'll have a steady/stable source of income that Google can't F*CK with and you'll most likely get more love from Google in the long term anyways.

    Any paid/automated backlink sources are not going to send you any traffic. It may seem like a lot more work but take it from someone who lost a full-time income basically overnight - don't waste your time trying to game the engines. Spend that time/money on building relationships, building referrals and creating stuff people actually want to see.

  • There is absolutely NO public blog network that is safe from Google. Yes, there are some networks that haven't been targeted yet, but that does not mean that Google will not hit them in the future.

    People need to realize that it's incredibly easy for Google to take down a network. Heck, I could take down a network in a week if I was subscribed as a member. All you'd need to do is track where your content is sent, and then gather all the outbound links from the domains that host your submitted content. In a very short period of time, I could unravel even the largest blog networks.

    You still have good options though.

    1. You could build your own Network. (of high pr domains)

    - This would take some time and cost a bit of money initially. But once built up, could actually save you a ton of money in the long run. As well as a whole lot of hassle.

    2. You could build up a network of web 2.0's

    -Google considers subdomains as entirely separate and unique domains. For that reason, they could never penalize all web 2.0 subdomains. If you built up a network of web 2.0's, you would be safe from being Google blasted.

    • Thanks for the great advice! I considered setting up my own blog network but couldn't find a reliable place to safely buy aged or PR domains; everywhere I went had sites with faked PR and there were even a few that passed the Google PR checker, but they must have been 301s because in no universe were these PR9 websites...

      Any suggestions???

      Thanks!

  • If you over use link building services, of course you are going to have poor results.

    It's like Frosted Flakes: not great by themselves, but part of a complete breakfast--

    No single service can provide everything that you need--you need to use different tools responsibly in concert with one another to have the best results.
