Can I Post Daily Instead Of Building Backlinks?

Can't verify this for 100% sure but In my experience, I have only made autoblogs and each autoblog got many posts and each site is also in first page of google for keywords I was looking for, with 0 off-page seo done

So yes, its possible.

Yes it can be done, built a site exactly that way last year,
Wrote 2-3 articles per day until i reached 200 articles.

After one month: around 50 visitors per day
After Two month: Around 150 visitors per day
After 3 month: around 300 visitors per day
After 4 month: avarage of 500 visitors per day, and 1016 on the most visited day. (December 30)

All my keywords was not reasearched very good, just downloaded 15000 keywords from adwords tool, and sorted out so i only had keywords with:

80-200 searches per month
4 or more words in the phrase.

I linked intern, 3-4 links each post around 400-500 words each.

Last month i got 21000 unique visitors with 300 articles, they came from +16000 different searches.

I never done any promotion. Still earns me around $1500 per month from Adsense. All articles had 1 picture.

I optimized site with good related post so i got an average of 2,4 pageviews per visit.

Hope this helps you.

If you write enough about something, you will eventually rank for something. Something you have mentioned within your content, which has little to no competition as a keyword. And by default your page ranks for it. You may then get a little traffic for it.

But writing 5000 posts about "Insurance", is not going to auto rank my site for "insurance"

My website is in the health niche.

IMO you make the most money when people search for something very specific, so that is also why i use this method alot when i build websites.

It's all about time management and analyzing your topic/niche/profitability. Some niches are huge and allow 1000 articles and maybe you can make $1000/month after spending 1000 hours writing articles. --- Or maybe your niche is smaller with a more targeted market and only requires 25 amazing link bait articles that are selling a higher priced item and can make $10,000/month and only take 100 hours to write - then 100 hours to create videos and distribute the article link bait and build page rank. Personally I don't see much point of just writing articles without analyzing your business objectives.

You can rank your websites for long tail keywords. But if your competitor is using backlinks for SEO then he is going to out rank you easily.
Getting some backlinks won't hurt. Focus on content first then backlinks and SEO.

Can't name 1 SEO I know that can vouch for this statement and I know lots of very good SEO's

If you are creating fresh content within your site and your site is based on any niche, you would get good benefit from SEO.

But build some relevant backlinks!

There's no substitute for links.

Google gives absolutely ZERO preference for sites that regularly update. I could bang out 5 articles a day with ease. But 5 GOOD articles...that's another story.

They want GREAT results to give to their users. I'd focus on doing that instead of updating all the time.

Google doesn't understand what good content is.

For example, if I was to write an amazing 1500/2000 word post about how to wear a bag on your head (and look cool) with nobody else on the Internet covering such a fascinating topic then I will organically get traffic because visitors will be searching for keywords related to my 1500/2000 word post.

Assuming my post is amazing (or funny which works well for viral marketing), this content will also get shared naturally which means backlinks for me. I have identified a gap in the market and I am taking advantage of the little or no competition that exists for how to wear a bag on your head and still look cool.

Now based on the traffic you get to your post, audience retention and how much your content is shared (ultimately backlinks) will determine the rank of your site or page. This is what Google uses to determine "good" content and nothing else. There are other factors but these are the most important in terms of user experience.

Brian has an excellent live case study of this on his site. He wrote about Google's 200 ranking factors (which didn't exist anywhere on the net, at least not to me) and it went down a storm. His post has been shared all over the place because it's great content that "fills in the gaps".

To me the whole 'build it and they will come' method of marketing a site is pretty much like the pull n' pray birth control method. Sometimes it works, but you are leaving way too much to chance.

when you research your topics, just leave some comments after reading. You read the article so you should have no problem writing a decent comment and getting it publisged. Kills two birds with one stone.

if you build the backlinks do the directory submission,article submission,forum posting,yahoo answer and post on social bookmarking site.

If it is a tech niche then it is true. One guy went from 9 to 15k page views per day with this daily blogging thing. See the interview here Exclusive Interview featuring Siddarth PK the founder of TechBii.com

Yes it is really true that if you have a very good on page than you can get very good ranking in the search engine result page for your website. A regular post on your website is also very helpful to get ranking.

Wow! I didn't expect such a large out-pouring of experience, knowledge, and direction.

Thanks Warriors. I greatly appreciate everyone's insight & responses.
