Hey Eric,

I did thanks. Not thinking that some did not buy it on here, just adding enough info so someone on here could help me troubleshoot. Not intended for a free for all.

Thanks Mike

I haven't seen this mentioned anywhere but spintax doesn't work in the excerpt field, just creating my first site and checking it all out shows RSS feed description exactly as I entered spintax content in excerpt field, LPN shortcodes do work however.

Which means it would be easy enough to create a new LPN shortcodes with a different sentence on each line to mix up the RSS feed descriptions.

Quick question again something I haven't seen mentioned in detail in this very long thread, bring on the forum ASAP, is how do you republish after you've deleted all posts without ending up with -2 at the end of the page name. I've tried renaming individual posts, looked at phpmyadmin and complete deletion only to end up with -3 on every post url.

Hey Jon,

Thanks, but tried that several times, could it be the version or theme I am using?
I am using Designate Theme and Version 3.1.2

Thanks Mike

Hi Warriors,

Need some help! Anyone got a better way/technique to get the posts links fastest as now I'm doing manual one by one, 200 posts...just imagine. Thanks

Ann

Thanks for chiming in Andy ....

#1 - Understood, I knew that since that's how I do it on my other blogs it's just that I perhaps thought that it might or would be different w/ LPN since when I mass delete, I don't see them in the trash like I thought I would since it would make sense for them to be in Trash Bin.

#2 - still trying to figure this out myself why anyone would use a Duplicate Post plugin if you can simply copy & paste

#3 - yes, before you had gotten the chance to respond, I unchecked the Comments from the pages section in the Quick Edit display.

Thanks.... I have a few more questions but will tackle in a separate post .

Thanks again.

MisterE

Ann,

If what you are saying is that you want the URLs for each of your posts/pages, then you can do what I did.

Download this free tool: Link Examiner

Link examiner will spider your site and show you every link associated with it.

After it finishes you'll want to generate an HTML Report page, and then scroll through this report until you find the list of URLs that correspond to the posts or pages, plus a whole lot more.

Don't forget to read the instructions

I also tried another similar link checker, Xenu's Link Sleuth, it does much the same but is slower.

Actually this was one of my questions I wanted to post to experienced members/users of WP

1. - How does one extract 100's - 1000's of post links for the use of mashing them for RSS Feeds to submit to aggregators.

I imagine someone will direct me to go to the sitemap but maybe there is an alternate way .... a plugin perhaps?

edit: just saw Mister E's post .... I'll check it out thanks

2. - I don't use YARPP but i see something to the like of it as far as the effects of a next or related post link at the bottom of all my posts. Is this a WP function or maybe it's just part of my Socrates theme function that I need to find out about. But anyways, I suppose I wouldn't need to install YARPP if this is what I'm getting anyways.

3. - I suppose using the Link extractor tool mentioned above would help also identify all posts or pages that have been duped, but I'm also seeing rankings for posts that have this extension Domain . com/page/2

Is this the same thing as -2 and how do I get rid of these....there are a whole bunch of these.

TIA

Ann sue

Hi Mark,


Thanks a lots for your help. Will do it immediately.

Ann

MisterE

Pupster,

If feed URLs are what you're after then you'll want to use the alternative tool that I mentioned, Xenu's Link Sleuth, if I remember correctly 'Sleuth will show the feed URL.

Then again it may be easier to just append /feed to the end of your post/page URLs.

As for your third question. Yes, both tools will make it very easy to find these duped pages and posts. Again, I prefer Link Examiner for it's speed and the formatting of the HTML report, they both do HTML reports.

Mark

ameliauwc

Can anyone help me? I have brought the plugin and followed the video all the way through doing step by step working on two computers and my site is disastrous. It loaded all cities in one post. Here is the website arcservicesllc.us do not want website get index...so any help will be fine

latinguy20

Ok this is step by step how I do it but this only relates to the new version of the plugin not the original.

If you've created some posts and realize that you need to make some changes across the board, go to that draft post, and hit delete built pages/posts.

If the button says Build pages/posts instead of delete, then just put in 1 under number of posts, hit build pages/posts and then the button will turn into delete pages/posts.

So after you've deleted the pages/posts, make the changes you need to make, save draft again, and finally hit build pages/posts but make sure you've taken out the 1 you put in earlier as the number of posts.

Hopefully that helps with the -1, -2 issues.

Another thing I've seen is to make sure your permalinks are setup correctly. Use either
or
And one last thing, make sure there is a shortcode in the title of the posts or else every single post is just going to have the same title.

The plugin downloads as a zip file, just install that as you would any other plugin through wordpress.

If you're on a mac, sometimes it automatically unzips the file when you download it. Just right click on the link and hit save as to avoid that problem.

Jeremy,

I just bought your Core Conversion having bought Local Ninja a while ago - Couldnt believe how easily everything just worked - and now I have a wesbite going all over America at No 1 more often than not - incredible!

My next challenge is to do this for one or two of my clients. Only I want to keep their sites in tact with the whole kit and kaboodle - ie I have built a nice site that has fresh optimised unique content.

I want to add a squeeze page (possibly the captivator theme as it looks so easy and intuitive).

I want to set up a Local ninja template page and then flush the site thru with about 100 local places in and around the London area (UK)

I want these pages set to get to the top at google and then do the Core Conversion thing - ie immediately jump straight to the squeeze page.

The squeeze page will offer further info in the form of a free (sales) pack for the product.

Question: Is it possible to create and use a sub-domain for the local ninja pages and another subdomain for the squeeze page, thereby leaving the original almost completed original WP website untouched? If so, do you have any advice as to how that can be done technically. I am not a tech/programmer.

All the best

Sam

Graphix Guru

One by one? What?

If that's what you're doing, this is not working for you. I suggest you re-watch the videos and study the Floating FAQ. The whole point is that LPN automates niche posting!

Best of luck...

Graphix Guru

Actually, it looks to me like the plugin worked fine.

IMHO, what you might want to do would be to change your site so that you have a static Homepage with all the features and benefits of what you're offering, and a Blog section where all the niche posts go. But that's just my personal preference for aesthetic and practical reasons.

When somebody sees your home page filled with the basically multiple versions of the same post, it can appear spammy.

Of course, this begs the question as to whether you care. If you have a strong enough call to action on each niche page, they may never see the "main site" or Home page. If you are using the Core Conversion plugin (also created by the LPN development team), visitors never will see anything except your offer/pitch/landing page.

Also, it didn't look to me like you're using All In One SEO (or something similar) because I didn't see any metatags. Using those, as well as making use of Tags and Categories, can be very beneficial. You can also use your shortcodes in your metatags and Tags.

I hope the foregoing helps.

subprime1

Hey Sam,

You should be able to accomplish that. Just create two subdomains with two separate wordpress installs:

All said, you would end up with three wordpress installs, assuming the main site is a WP site too.

Hope that helps.

pupster

Big H,


I think she means extracting the URLs after all the posts have posted.

On another note ..... can someone help with Post 2322 issue #3

I am getting these extensions without even a hint of the title of the post in the URL. How can I get rid of these and would it bebetter to redirect or Mass Delete and then republish the posts.

TIA

Hi,

I will be VERY APPRECIATIVE of anyone that can answer these questions and it may help you as well as you may not be aware of these plugins:

1. This theme looks great. Will this work as a theme for LPN without having to use sub domains and Core Conversions? : WordPress Sniper Review Theme

2. Will these following WSO BACK LINKERS WORK TO CREATE BACK LINKS FOR LPN??"

Thanks again for replying!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

andrewpeacock

Hi again,
#2. It's a WP function that can be used by themes if they want to. You're right, it does in effect do the same as the YARRP function, but my gut feel, based on nothing in particular, is that if a given page has links to 5 others, it'll be "easier" for the spiders to find all your pages. If they have to go from the first , to the second, to the third, and so on, it just seems inefficient to me. But, like I say, that's a gut feel thing.

#3. I've got some of those as well for pages which list entries by tags (which in my case are the counties). I can see the first page for the tagged posts, with a link to page 2, but there is no page 3, so I've no idea where Google is getting the URL of the third page from.

Regards,
Andy

Wow....3 posts...and 3 bashes. Maybe we can create a plugin for the private forum that allows us to not see the content of whoever we put in the shortcode.....just sayin.....

You don't really need to buy any SEO plugin...the best ones are free! I've used both of these (though not on the same site at the same time, LOL!)( I don't know why, but I felt I had to add that, LOL!):

"All in One Seo", and "Headspace" are 2 of the best. You can install either of these right from your wordpress admin.

Yippee! I'm coming back to report some rankings results.

In other words - I HAVE rankings results.

I've been working on a variety of applications with this plug in as I have quite a few interests/things I want to accomplish.

Just for s**ts and giggles I thought I'd check to see how things are playing out. Granted, I'm just typing in a few phrases and sure enough I'm seeing some of my stuff show up on page one.

Interestingly, some of my page one results have the /tag/ thing in the url. But hey - I don't care because it takes them to where I want to go (in these instances I am NOT using Core Conversions).

I haven't used the rankerized thing yet for a thorough look into my rankings. I may do that later.

My results, rankings wise have been spotty. However, I do not cast blame on the plug in. I am learning that perhaps I underestimated the ease of getting good rankings for one niche. Looking at search results it appears way more competitive than I thought it would be. But no biggie. If it doesn't pan out I lost a few minutes of time putting it together. Also I know to instead go after some longer tailed keywords. Or do a little backlinking. I've got the site all configured - just have to make some more drafts and I'm sure I'll see results. And the cool thing with using the plug in and having it target so many cities (in this case) and even going after less searched for terms - it can still add up.

I think the key is to not get worked up over not instantly getting #1 rankings for competitive terms. Instead, go after some less competitive terms and go with the collective amount of search power you get from having MANY posts targeting different cities (or models/makes) that can be done instantly. And while it's not bad to first do posts/pages on the more competitive terms, you can then work on the "lower hanging fruit" to get some good results while you give the more competitive stuff the time it needs to get where you want it to go. (Whether it just needs time or a little bit more work on your part via backlinks or what have you.)

Still it is gratifying to see a variety of page 1 results for stuff that didn't even exist a week ago.

Oh! Another piece of advice I'd offer people - try to target a variety of things for monetization. For example, some of my posts are for the potential of renting out to offline businesses. I also put adsense on those just in case. I'm also targeting my OWN services spread out over a bunch of cities (and I'm seeing page 1 results for some of those cities). I'm also targeting for affiliate offers (clickbank) and using Core Conversions to send them to the sales page(s) - I generally find more than one related offer and let those rotate. I'm going with both routes in this case - the location searches and by type/make/model (not at the same time - one draft focuses on location/city and another draft will focus on different makes/models). I'm also about to do up a subdomain to target some cpa offers which I'll use both the location specific searches and make/model type search.

I don't suggest doing everything in a single day - it's brain frying and overwhelming. But come up with a schedule like "today I'm going to target something to rent to offline businesses, then tomorrow I'm going to try something with CPA or affiliate", etc. Since it's so easy to create I think most people will get better results by using it for a lot of different applications rather than just one that may take a while to see results (ie get money from) and cause discouragement.

Hi Warriors,

Does anyone use RankTracker with FREE proxies and have issues with it not showing rank? I let it run for 40 minutes and got nothing. SCARED of course, I went and started checking. Everything is cool in regards to my ranks...but it's not working. Do the RankTracker users feel that I need to breakdown and get HMA and use their proxies? ANy help is appreciated.

Now...off to build a quick 500 pages....and look for that WordPress plugin that checks rank....where's that damn Floating FAQs?!?!?! lol

Eddie

Graphix Guru

Speaking for MisterE (I would think) and myself...

Geeze. Some folks are never satisfied.

scottiejack

Bought the plugin. throughout the thread, most of the posts referred to using the plugin finding local service providers like plumbers, painters, contractors in geographic areas so we can sell them 1st page google rankings and SEO services...

I own a natural supplements business that I want to use this with. 100% of my sales come from Google Adwords with no geotargeting at all as it doens't matter if I am local to them or not. I think many people want to buy from someone locally and when I search for Natural Supplements Houston, TX there are many natural supplements companies to choose. So that I can use my WP posts to get every person who searches for say

keyword = natural supplements

So that when I create posts for every city in Texes with Keyword= natural supplements, I should be able to get the rankings and then use Core Conversion Plug-in to send everyone of those posts to my selling page where I have a pretty good conversion rate?

So I guess what I am asking is can this plugin be used to match ANY keyword to a local geo? So I can "blast" this to every city and state and hopefully if it works like it has for others, my "natural supplements" posts start to reside on the first page of google. This exposure in organic search would be great for "natural supplements" and if anyone clicks on any of these posts, since I have Core Conversions they go right to my "natural supplements" web site to place the order.

I could then use other keywords that match what my products do like "natural sleep aid" and "natural pain relief" ....
To me this is like carpet bombing the local searches to just try to increase traffic for my main site

So is this a strategy that might work for the way the plugin works and the way local search results are displayed and the way people who are searching for "natural supplements" might search...

or should I just concentrate on selling 1st page google rankings to these local service providers like plumbers, painters, attorneys etc as these seems like a real recurring revenue stream and be huge.

Hmmm or both...

Any input on the idea of using ANY keyword and specifically "natural supplements" is much appreciated.

Thank you.

Scottie

scdayton

Ok, prepare yourselves for the dumbest question asked thus far, but nothings going to stop me from asking!

Do we or do we not have to click the publish button at some point to get our posts to get posted on our blogs?

Now before you award me the dunce cap I've read the included pdf and watched both instructional video's and the the one video by the plug-ins creator say's at the 10:48 minute mark to NEVER hit the publish button. I assumed he meant just don't do it before clicking the Save Draft button first, yet he never does at any point later in the video say "NOW click the publish button."

I'd never heard of not hitting the publish button before in a WP blog, but figured maybe there's something he did in the plug-in that somehow makes this unnecessary. Then I read the great LPN Best Practices doc in this thread and I read a part where it said...

1. Set up cities in shortcodes
2. Write post with the shortcode in content
3. Save draft
4. Publish posts/pages
5. Replace cities in shortcode tab
6. Save draft
7. Publish posts/pages

So do we in fact hit the publish button at some point or not?

Tiger66466

First, Scottie - what you are talking about is a GREAT use of the plug in. The selling to other businesses is just a suggestion of what you can do for it. But definitely use it for your own business. So yes, build pages that target the various keywords that you are wanting to rank for and use the city shortcodes to "blanket" the search results. And using Core Conversions is the way to go.

But to really answer your question - I'd say do BOTH. Why not add in an extra business model to make money from. However, if you have zero desire to rent out pages then don't and concentrate on your natural supplement business only.

_____________

SCDayton - Nope, you never hit publish. If you are using the newest version you can save draft constantly and it won't publish anything and when you are ready to publish you hit the button above save draft that says build pages/posts. If you're using the old version - I can't remember how it looked (I used it very briefly before installing the updated version) I think it was still just save draft to publish.

You can check - as soon as you've built pages (for new version) or hit save draft (for old version - and use that wp con something or other that keeps it from auto saving your draft - which caused it to post) then check under pages or posts (whichever you did) and you can see them all listed.

Stacy

Stacy,

You have the patience of Job and the perfect answers to my questions. This is a great thread and I'm looking forward to posting my results in the next week or so. I had to upgrade my .php on my servers to use WP so should have that done tomorrow and start posting.

Thanks again and good night.

Check the RankTracker country if you're not based in the US. I'm hitting UK locales, as I live here, with a .co.uk domain, so I'm starting to rank well in googe.co.uk, but not at all in google.com

I started using proxies, but hit problems, so now I just let it run without proxies, with the delays between activity enabled in the options.

andrewpeacock

Hi all,
Here's a question: let's say you're targeting "<trade>" by city.

What's the best keyphrase to target: "<trade> in <city>" or "<trade> <city>"?

I've been aiming at "<trade> in <city>", but I've just been checking some positions for "<trade> <city>", and I rank differently for each one (normally just a place or two between them).

Now, that's OK, but when I search for my own use, I typically seach for "<trade> <city>".... which is the one my pages rank slightly lower for.

So... I guess two questions:

1. When you're searching for your own use, do you use the "in" in the search term?

2. When you are creating your sites, are you using the "in" as part of your keyphrase?

(OK, 3 questions)..

3. If you are not using "in" as part of your keyphrase, how do you weave the gramatically poor "<trade> <city>" into your content?

Thanks in advance for any help,
Andy

CleanMountainLiving

Hey Andy,

Good question. I say that because I've had the same one bouncing around my head for the past couple of days.

Can't say that I've got any evidence, as I had a couple of hiccups getting LPN working, but I've slayed that dragon (through the effective use of the support desk, I might add), and am building now.

Anyway, after reading your post, just for grins, I went to Big G keyword tool and typed in "plumber chicago" and "plumber in chicago". Did it for 4 large US cities. Big G says the searches for each are exactly the same.

There you have it. It must be true.

andrewpeacock

Hi CleanMountainLiving,

Thanks for checking into it. I never thought of looking at other niches :-)

OK, so pretty much they're the same. Maybe some flukey fluctuations, but c'est la vie.

Andy

DianaLensbury

I tend to find the Google Keyword Tool shows the "<trade> <city>" type phrase has a higher search volume than the "<trade> in <city>" type phrase so I would employ "<trade> <city>" as my primary keyword and "<trade> in <city>" as my secondary keyword.

So, I will optimize my SEO Title for the primary keyword and try to integrate both the primary and secondary keywords into the SEO Description. Both will go in the Tags. If I can get away with it, I will also incorporate both into the SEO Title, e.g.

"Plumber Chicago - Find a Plumber in Chicago"

I personally don't believe in this day and age that you have to get the exact keyphrase within your page content but I try to do it anyway for good measure. If I'm struggling, I'll do something like this...

"It can be hard to find a plumber. Chicago is such a big place..."

Hope that helps.

Diana

DianaLensbury

I'm very keen for this WSO to close now. I know it's kinda selfish to block people out but in the interests of longevity for this method, I think that it needs to slip below the radar again.

The trouble is that this thread has so many positive testimonials that the power of this method will get noticed and abused by others. It won't be long before somebody else creates a 'Traffic Equalizer' plugin that starts to saturate the SERPS and then we're doomed. Anybody that remembers Traffic Equalizer will remember how successful it was and as a result, how instant its demise was.

Who agrees with me?

Exactly what I would have posted to the T.

Kill 2 birds with 1 stone that way. That's how I do it.

optimumex

To be honest Andy, you answered your own question without realizing it (see bolded text above). Do what you think people would do...

In essence you'd use both in your content, rather than either or. In this case, <trade> <city> would be your main keyword phrase (for the SERPS), while <trade> in <city> would be more conversational (for the visitors). Diana gave some great examples of how to integrate both, in her post.

~ optimumex

optimumex

Can't speak for all the other LPN owners (although a handful have already expressed their wishes), but believe me when I say, you're not alone with this frame of thought.

When Jeremy first mentioned shutting this WSO down and moving to a private forum, I'm sure we all collectively shared a sigh of relief. Sometimes a little selfishness is good when it comes to protecting a potential long term investment. It's been available long enough. Time to close the doors.

I'm a little disturbed at myself for feeling the need to post this. But, just so it get's said.

I would not feel bad if we never saw another tip, technique, vital LPN information etc., etc, in this WF thread. I for one am feeling a bit stingy when it comes to LPN and everything about it. Of course once we're on the other side I would feel quite comfortable opening the floodgates.

yes.

couldn't agree more. this plugin will be eventually abused to the point of ineffective if it's not shut down soon. it may already be too late.

Waynzworld,

I don't think your going to get an answer to your questions.

The decision as to which theme and which extra plugins that you use is entirely up to you. If you follow the Best Practices that were laid out right from the beginning by Jeremy, Don and Andres, then you will want to keep everything as simple as possible.

Mark

DSG

Yep I agree completely Diana, it happens time and again.

Shut it down, shut it down now!! IT'S MY PRECIOUSSS.

By the way on a side note Diana, you seem to have a popular face. I've seen it on a number of sites now and on a Valpak ad that came in my physical mail. Great smile.

subprime1

With you 100%. I saw the same thing happen earlier this year with a video softwares (similar concept to lpn actually) and a very active and happy thread like this... now dead.

Even after it's gone private, unless this thread is deleted, someone will rev engineer it when they see all these positive testimonials. I say delete the this thread too.

The only saving grace here is that people still need to understand onpage SEO techniques and have a modicum of technical ability, even it if it is only WordPress. But even then, I do worry that those types of sites will look like lame spam attempts and catch the eye of big brother who will see plugin tracks and then... wham!

I'm investing a lot of time and energy in this so I hope I'm just being paranoid.

MisterE

Have to agree 100% with Subprime.

If it's possible, I would also like to see this thread vanish from the face of the Earth.
