Tired of the SEO is dead threads? Tired of people saying link building is dead?

Yeah me too. So since I promised something a little different (and free) for my 5,000 post I figured I'd kill two birds with one stone. DO a freebie for my 5,000 post AND show critics that link building and SEO is not dead. First things first -

THERE IS NOTHING REVOLUTIONARY IN HERE (like I say on the videos there is nothing new in SEO. Anyone telling you there is and they have it is blowing smoke)

Second thing upfront - If you are looking for some click a few buttons without some work strategy then pass on to another thread (but you cut down on the work by using some automation I talk about in here - Yikes Mike Anthony uses Automation software?? Who knew)

Third and last thing up front - I cover the basics of a quick way to build a near free SEO network. It will be up to you to build on it. Theres a WHOLE LOT more if you think about it that you can build on top of these videos. There are all kinds of variations so don't just be prepared to suck up some ideas but be prepared to think and add your own twists or blaze your own entire different path based on one simple premise -

POST PENGUIN IN CONTEXT LINKS RULE.

You will either be doing some variation of this kind of link building,doing link link exchanges or some variation on "IF I build it the links will come". For those who still want to "self backlink" utilizing tiered, networks or buffer sites is THE way to go. However If you don't vary it and just try to make everything run with some Web 2.0 sites you will probably get nowhere.

Anyway... here are the promised videos (part three and four to be added probably over the weekend). There are some sound issues and the narrator sucks (lol) but if you are into a little substance over just style you might get something out of it.

No sales links , not optins, no links to sales pages just a little FREE link building guidance and the Video is pretty rough so you are warned.. Would have dropped it on Youtube but they got a bit long for that and well Google owns Youtube and you know how we all like to fly under the radar of big G .

UPDATE: I presently have the flu and I need to record over some sessions due to the sound problem. So the next videos will be delayed at least a week. Secondly I have decided taking the time to do the videos is enough much less having to then deal with some of the very foolish objections people who don't better try to raise and derail the thread with (the silliest being if you use WEb 2.0s you can only use low quality content). the videos below will remain for all to look at but theres really no reason for me to waste and spend money for bandwidth for people who don't want to do anything but complain based on their inability to comprehend. SO those who find value in the the existing videos you can PM me and I will give you links ( still free) to the remaining two videos).

Any questions please feel free to PM me and I will try to answer as time permits.

        Yuk was right it was a 404 for awhile. Using a new version of Captivate and trusted their html5 output (along with their sounds editing which still sucks).

        I'll get it right after awhile....

        P.S. If the sound is too low guys let me know. First time using the new version and it came out much lower than I thought - unless its just my system). Like I said its pretty rough.

        I've removed part two temporarily but it will be back up in a few minutes (HTML5 repeats the section and will fix)

    Thanks for the potentially awesome videos, but unfortunately, the first one is 404ed.

    Also thanks for announcing that:

    I think everyone needs to be reminded of this sometimes. It's hard to avoid getting sucked into the one button make money ploys.

    I don't agree that these are the kinds of links Google "is looking for". They're in-content yes, but not editorial ...not by a long shot.

    I thought smart people think ahead rather than just react to what's happening now. The video itself admits that Google is doing a "better job every year at weeding out" manipulative links. Why continue telling people to use article directories and Web2's when it's obvious that Google will eventually do something about it?

    It's not going matter whether you spin usernames or whether you vary your anchor text. The fact still remains that the links are obviously manipulative. It is not difficult for Google to cook-up an algo update that says "If Site A, has X percentage of links from web2, article directories, bookmarks, docsharing, profiles, etc, then we don't rank their pages as high".

    And what's more even if you do make it to the top undetected for a competitive and worthwhile keyword, how long are you really gonna stay there ? You have quality raters actively looking at actual search results, and you have competitors that are likely to report you.

    In addition, flying that close to the edge puts you at a bigger risk for negative seo. With a manipulative profile, all someone has to do point the same kinds of links at you with zero variation and bam you. are. gone.

      Might help to actually watch the videos before making off base comments. I don't recommend article directories and if people actually watch the videos they will see I am saying the exact opposite of what you claim.

        I did watch, Mike.

        You did recommend Web 2.0s. What I say about them still stands.

          Ret you mentioned article directories. Where in the videos do I tell anyone to rely on article directory links as you implied. You made that part up. Thats my point. As for Web 2.0s I stand by that myself

          Anyone believe that having a site on wordpress.com sets you up for negative SEO? Thats nonsense. Tumblr is no good? Do tell. Yours is a knee jerk reaction. There is nothing wrong with Web 2.0s. As with everything its a matter of the KIND AND QUALITY OF THE CONTENT you put on them.

          Further anyone watching the videos will CLEARLY SEE that I teach a very diverse set of links and specifically suggest Magic submitter for its ability to create links on a variety of platforms. Now will you probably complain about that too? Sure but I've said it many times -

          There are no shortage of top sites that use their sister, partner and affiliatated sites to get links to rank. The principle is the same and even Googles has been seen using that technique.

          so no apologies......You are just wrong.

            Sigh.. I ask again ?

            Are these editorial links as YOU claim ?
            Are these links "Google wants" as YOU claim ?
            Is this a smart strategy given the fact the path Google is on is OBVIOUS ?

            Your smokescreen is dark as they come .
            Those were the points of my argument ..care to say anything at all about these ?

            I admit, you didn't mention article directories. My fault. But really what's the difference between Web2s and ADs ? They send the SAME low quality, non-editorial signals . Or are you saying they don't ?

              Wow whats the difference between web2.0s and Ads, LOL, people build whole websites on web2.0's, good luck doing that with an article directory.

              Article directories are about the most spammy things out there, with a web2.0 you are in full control yourself and make it as spammy or non spammy as YOU want.

              Anyway Retsek, you are way to whitehat in your thoughts, if we have to listen to you everyone has to spend thousands if not ten thousands of dollars on SEO, not everyone had the "luck" to sell a large amount of crappy Micro niche sites for $75.000 and thus has the finance to spend tons of money. There are great alternatives that still work as a charm.

                Don't get me wrong. I still have some sites that use Web 2.0s, blog comments, etc. My point is I know it's a dead end.

                  Blogcomments
                  Forum profile links
                  Auto approve article directories (I think Ezine is still okay, though not great)
                  Wiki blasts (unless you get a link from Wikipedia itself)
                  And more of that crap, yeah it's a dead end for sure, I've been saying that very often..


                  Web2.0's though will never die cause it's a platform for people to build sites on, Google can't just devalue that. Yeah sure when you spam 100 times to the same platform with crap content, that is dead or will die I agree.

                  As a matter of fact I do it a little different now myself. I write a guestpost, upload it to my site, then I use the same piece of content on web2.0s and I link back to the guestpost, which makes it syndicated content right. I think that's pretty clever (at least it releases me from using spin content).

                yeah it is amazing to be asked what the difference between posting single articles at a time and having a location to build out a full site with multiple articles and resources. Its like people are totally unaware of the many highly respected and ranked blogs running on Wordpress.com. Blogger even Tumblr etc.

                everyone has to spend thousands if not ten thousands of dollars on SEO, not everyone had the "luck" to sell a large amount of crappy Micro niche sites for $75.000 and thus has the finance to spend tons of money. There are great alternatives that still work as a charm.
                Well not only that but you can go and spend the thousands of dollars and guess what - the company will go ahead and do alot of the same things that the purists will whine about - buy links, place links on sites they own or can arrange links on and use pres release sites as indicated in the video along with blogs etc.

                Ret is only kidding himself. Even Google has been caught doing some of the same things. There is no business offline that would be chastised for using some of its other properties to promote its sister properties. Its pure nonsense.

                  Seth Godin's blog is on typepad.com.

                  Seth's Blog

                  But, it's not like his blog is highly respected or anything ...

                  Brilliant videos so far. Sound was low but I could hear. Just turn them up. I do have some sites using some low quality links out there, but know to develop long lasting properties, I gotta do some work and private blogs/properities described here are what I need to focus on.

              Sheesh if I must I will spell it out - Yes. they are. Care to tell us how Google determines an editorial link? By going out and querying every author on the internet if they wrote it. Pure and utter nonsense. From the perspective of the Google algo any link within content is potentially an "editorial link". We will all wait for your rebuttal on how google identifies an editorial link as its the only thing that is relevant to the discussion


              Are these links "Google wants" as YOU claim ?
              IF we logically take how they structure their algo as an indication of what they are looking for then surprise!!! Yes. Does google WANT to be in the business of determining who wrote each article on the Internet? No. Google's algo CLEARLY favors in context links as editorial links. You can cry to the cows come home. every bit of SEO data indicates this. What the algo rewards is what Google wants.

              Is this a smart strategy given the fact the path Google is on is OBVIOUS ?
              What path? Your alleged path that they are out to wipe out all web pages and CMS like the video specifies that you should build out or your other delusion that you have that Google is on path to determine the authorship of each page on the Internet separate from the content on it? Plus if you claim the strategy includes article directories, PDf sites etc as you did then you don't even know what my strategy is. You just plain flat out misrepresented it.

              Your smokescreen is dark as they come .
              but yet still not as dark as your knowledge of SEO in the real world. and to what end do I have to put up a smokescreen and you don't. See any signature in here from me?

              I admit, you didn't mention article directories. My fault.
              You mentioned a whole list of things more than article directories and those were all wrong as well save the Web 2.Os.

              But really what's the difference between Web2s and ADs ?
              LOL. Okay its a learning thread and I did say I would accept questions so I'll oblige.

              A) The difference is that with Web 2.0s in the blog you can place the links wherever you wish. I would have thought you knew this where as in most article directories you are confined to the foot of the post.

              B) you control alot more of the space. You can add content not only of text on many of them but video and other resources.

              C) You can do multiple posts and build them around a subject complete with links to resources. In other words you can improve the user experience in a WEB 2.0 where in an AD you can only post articles scattered around. Seriously - ever heard of Wordpress.com?

              They send the SAME low quality, non-editorial signals .
              yes of course according to you and no one else. No one else I know buys into the idea that because content is written on Wordpress.com or Tumblr or blogger.com it instantly and automatically is low quality. Most people including even google that ranks some wordpress.com sites quite nicely would say that low quality content is determined oh I dunno BY THE QUALITY OF THE CONTENT not where it is published.

              The only darkness in this thread is I am sorry you talking about something you have no clue about. The video about content has not even been put up yet but you are spouting all kinds of empty assumptions.

                mm... maybe you haven't heard Google+ authorship ? AuthorRank maybe ?
                It's a learning thread, so try: http://www.blindfiveyearold.com/author-rank

                Let's quote the good bit:

                Assuming that a given agent has a high reputational score, representing an established reputation for authoring valuable content, then additional content authored and signed by that agent will be promoted relative to unsigned content or content from less reputable agents in search results.

                An in-context link is not necessarily an editorial link. You can ask owners of BMR and the public networks about that.

                  It's a learning thread, so try: AuthorRank could be bigger than all Panda updates combined
                  If I were you I would stop posting because you dig yourself deeper each new post.

                  A) Google+ is being integrated with Blogger and umm Blogger is a Web 2.0 site owned by Google yet again destroying your point against all Web 2.Os. Or wait? Google considers its own property automatically low quality right?

                  B) Authorrank has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with Google going out and independently knocking on your door and verifying identification. Try again.

                  You can create any name and start posting under it and build your rep and Google will not come knocking at your door. You can create pen names quite easily and in the process build out a name associated with anyone of your properties.

                  Or are you assuming that people would do something silly and use the same full name for all their posts on their networks IF they wanted to use that metric? LOL.

                  If anything that fits in perfectly with posting in various locations because it does not replace pagerank and other factors as the very article you cited states point blank. You missed this even -

                  "In this way, even content without authorship could be informed by the AuthorRank of links to that content. AuthorRank won't replace PageRank it'll just make it more accurate. This is one of the more powerful applications of AuthorRank. In essence, Google identifies authors who can help curate the link graph"

                  So links are still part and parcel of SEO and the authorrank sits in nicely with this and you can have pen names etc.




                  An in-context link is not necessarily an editorial link. You can ask owners of BMR and the public networks about that.
                  Don't have to . They were selling links and they got dinged for it PRECISELY because the algo DID and does count those links as editorial. They worked. You can shake and bake but it comes back to the same point you can't refute with any evidence. As far as the algo is concerned and incontent link is seen as an editorial link.

      What's the alternative? What are you left with if you take away all of the established linkbuilding strats? Guest blogging? Paying for links?

        To be honest you can just disregard Retsek's entire objection since he really didn't watch the videos (second video was taken down immediately due to sound issues and put back long after those comments). There is nowhere in there that indicates you would have a percentage of Bookmarks, article directories.doc sharing sites like he implies. Its totally made up by him since I say the DIRECT OPPOSITE. He's just making assumptions.

        The only thing that is recommended in the technique is Web 2.0s, press release sites and Wordpress sites and any one who knows anything about web 2.0s knows that they are VERY varied. there is not a standard template or footprint across all Web 2.0s - most of them are programmed independently and have varied features

        Finally he just totally ignores one of the main points of the videos that you can and should create a varied network of link resources that you custom add due to that ability within MS to add any site or kind of page not just use the included resources.

        So Will Google eventually develop an algo that weeds out all CMS applications, all sites built with html and all blog platforms. umm sure.

        and then every search will be the same result - a blank page :rolleyes:

    Yep contextual links still work like a charm, as well as private / high PR sites of course. Together it makes the perfect mix. Sites that I use for free contextual links are:

    - doc/pdf sharing sites
    - web2.0 properties
    - pressrelease sites (there are dozens of free ones)
    - optionally you can use wiki sites although I'm not a fan of that

    My private sites are designed like:

    - review sites (almost any topic can fit there)
    - bookmark sites (any topic fits)
    - niche themed sites

    No need to use spammy article directories to get good contextual back links.

    @Retsek: Using the same web2.0's over and over definitely will leave a footprint, Google can indeed easily detect % of sites used. That's why it's important to vary it up. As long as you do that and keep 100% IP diversity in mind then there is nothing wrong. It's not like you run out of options cause you can always keep tiering up the links or building the web2.0s out with more content.

    There's nothing wrong with web 2.0's. I don't understand why people automatically assume that 1. your content is crap, 2. your web 2.0's aren't run like real mini-blogs.

    I have lots of web 2.0's that have accumulated over several years of building backlinks for tons of sites. Some of them have 30+ posts, all high quality, unique, 500+ word articles... Half don't even contain any links yet.

    The only thing that sucks sometimes is when a web 2.0 provider goes out of business, but that's pretty rare. I've only lost a handful of properties over 2+ years.

    Pro tip: build up PR by participating on other properties/blogs hosted on the same platform. A lot of these web 2.0 services are designed to be "communities" and building up PR can be simple and really effective.

      Ret should you ever have anything with some substance to post in critique of the method then feel free. When you have even a shred of evidence that Google counts all Web 2.0 content as low quality then you can be my guest to post and with evidence it would be keeping the thread on track.

    Thnx MA for taking your time to create these videos without any hidden agenda... this is a rarity in this industry, these days!

    I don't know why the objection to the use of Web2's. The diversity of these platforms and authority that many hold make these properties real gems. Serious, I do not understand it... ppl are going on about guest posting - but if I get 100 guest posts on authority blogs which will certainly contain over 80% of wordpress sites wouldn't that be unnatural and is Google suddenly going to disregard links from Wordpress blogs because of this?

    And many of these Web2 properties actually have a social community of real people creating and sharing content... it isn't just SEOers creating pages to rank on these properties and because of that Google cannot and will not disregard links from these properties. Google will have to disregard their entire foundation built on PR to begin disregarding links completely.

    Yes, there are many other ranking factors embedded in the algo but the only time Web2's are going to be disregarded is when Google completely obliterates links as a ranking factor.

          You and I both know that there are a ton load of things you would NEVER EVER share in an Open forum. IF you shared your resources they would wreck it by trying to spam the sites, blast the owners until they closed things down and all kinds of other bone dead stupid things. That would be just as silly as linking to any money site you have. lots of people are lazy and unimaginative. They'll try to rip off your keywords, your link strategy and if they can your whole business.

          Frankly I am regreting releasing these videos here. There are clearly some people who are undeserving of getting anything for free. i'm presently deciding whether to release the other videos or just PM the URLs to people who have some imagination and who appreciate it.

          Some of the responses have been frankly bone headed. If you use web 2.0s it can only be done with low quality. If you don't share your money sites with them then you have nothing to offer.

          Such ignorance shouldn't be rewarded with more free videos but I'll decide over the weekend. I'mquite happy to leave the naysayers believing they are right. Its kind of deserving that they do

            You know what's the thing, most people just can't think and only act on impulses. They see the video starting with article directories right in front their nose in an automation tool, then you start talking about web2.0's and all they can think of is spamming as hard as you can with this software to gain as much links as possible.

            Simply cause everyone thinks more = better. I see it myself with my packages, I now offer less links but higher quality links, the only thing people see are less links and the sales drop accordingly. Pretty frustrating.

            It's the same with your video's, people can't see the value in things. Personally I think starting the video with those article directories visible is a poor choice but probably you haven't thought about it. I for myself had a short moment of: "Mike are you kidding me" and I couldn't even hear the sound so I just watched to see if you would click any button to register at those sites, then I saw you moving on to the web2.0 part and thought ah okay it's all good

    Hi Mike,

    Great videos and I have been testing out things manually on one of my sites in relation to web 2.0's. However the question I have is how do you schedule the creation of the web2.0 sites that you are building to a brand new webpage without getting penalised?

    I seem to tank every page that I try to build extra links to my site.. one page for example where I built 1 tumblr minisite - 3 posts, on final post i put 2 links to my money page.

    I then did another post a week later and put two more links to my money page (different anchor texts) . Both pages with the links had content that were original. What I did then was use some software i have that is supposed to help pages get indexed. It basically submits the link of the tumblr to 25 sites (like alexa look ups and similiar stuff). the next time I checked my site it had gone from #17 to no where in google..

    Does this mean one of those 25 sites is classed as a bad neighbourhood site and therefore i got negatively penalised through my web 2.0 site?? How can this be possible?

    thanks in advance for your advice

    (Edit: btw way i have no removed the links from the tumblr site to see if my ranking returns. Just waiting on sites to get indexed)

      I started reading your post in my email (subscribed) and was getting ready to rip you a new one until I saw it was you because believe it or not I have gotten messages close enough to that to make it believable

      I looked at it . Seems the default setting on the captivate software I was using had an expiration date so I will have to find the source files and recompile. The second video won't be published here though.. Can't be bothered giving the haters more free training but you know where they will be.
