Is SEO still alive?

I’m active on several SEO forums and I’m also following SEO specialists and newsletters. For more than a year it looks like there’re no new answers to Google’s wave of updates. After the Panda and Penguin updates a lot has changed. Before these updates low quality backlinks started to get less valuable or even dangerous for your website. Everybody was focusing on high quality backlinks in the form of web 2.0. Then the social media  became hot in the land of SEO. After that we’ve seen all kinds of varieties with web 2.0, blog comments, social media, tier 1, 2 or even 3 backlinks. I’ve seen it all end unfortunately I’ve tried it all. Last October  my website networkmarketingnew.com got sandbagged. I’m glad to tell you that it’s back in the search results but it took more than three months. What did I do to get it back in the SERP’s? I added new content to the website and that’s really all you can do. Of course you can’t continue to build offsite backlinks since that’s the reason the website got sandbagged in the first place.

That being said, I have been looking for new ways to continue SEO for this website. Of course I’ve been looking for high quality and save ways to do that. No matter what forum or what newsletter, I really don’t see anything new. So I started wondering, is SEO still alive? Or did Google really find an answer to fight SEO techniques? When you’re reading this blog post and you really have an answer please share. Don’t use this post to leave your backlinks, it’s old and it has been done so it isn’t worth anything anymore and also it’s irritating ;).

Google sandbag

I heard about Google sandbag and I always kept in mind that my SEO should by high quality to prevent my websites from beeing ‘sandbagged’. Unfortunately three of my website have been sandbagged the last four months! Why? Nobody knows? What can I do about it? Nobody knows. I’ve searched the internet but all I can find is tob e patient and just wait. Personally I think I have to keep adding content to my website so that Google will ad value to it again. I’ll lay low on the off site SEO for a while. 

I’ve had this discussion with people a lot the past few months. Is SEO become harder and harder every month? Yes it is. One year ago linkwheels where the key to success, no wit can cause your website the get sandbagged because Google recognizes these structures now. The problem is that a lot of people have these kinds of links build to their websites already so if your unlucky your website will be hit as well. 

I’ll expand my websites with new high quality for now. Of course I’ll will share what will happen with you. I really hope my websites will get out of the Google sandbag as soon as possible. Do you have any suggestions? If so, please share.

When should you buy new adpacks?

When should I buy new adpacks. The answer tot hat is simple, immidiatly after the cut of date when a profitshift is coming. That’s the biggest change your adpacks will most likely fully mature. But when is the next profitshift? Personally I keep buying new adpacks two or three weeks after the cut of date. I prefer a high daily sales amount, let’s say $ 50,- or even $ 100,- daily. 

I’m finding it hard to sop buying ad packs. Especially when I’m waiting for a new profitshit and my current ad packs ar starting to expire. When your used to receive $ 100,- every day it’s hard to just receive $ 30,- because most of your ad packs are expired. Also it’s tempting to keep buying adpacks to get your daily sales profits higher and higher. 

With the migration from just been paid to Profitclicking a lot has happend. The old JSS Trippler positons kept running but on $ 0,10 daily sales profits and then the new ad packs paid $ 0,20. Then the profitshift went wrong and they had to recalculate everything and it’s hard to tell if the profitshift is done by now or that they are still working on it. Also we should have got the converted adpacks already. The panels pay $ 60,- and when you use upgrades you’ll get your money faster but they will pay $ 40,-. Eitherway you’ll make money and you can reïnvest it. 

The reason I’m writing this blog is because I get a lot of questions about what’s going on at Profitclicking and what people should do. I’m just writing this blog and I don’t know what’s going on with Profitclicking anymore then you do. To get information I read the weekly updates in my dashboard. They don’t give a lot of usefull information but it’s straigth from the source so it has tob e true. I’m also in the private profitclicking Facebook group. Here people share their experiences with profitclicking. When daily sales profits are beeing paid people post the date they received it along their profitclicking id number. That way you can see how far they are in the proces. And last but not least in the conference room you can ask questions and also news about profitclicking is shared here.

I suggest you follow and/or join these groups to get all the information you can get. For the rest, all you can do is wait, good things will happen!

2013: The year of ProfitClinking

I’ve been trying to make money online fors ome years now and I have tob e honest, I havend made that much. Looking back at 2012 Global Domains International is a great opportunity and I’ve made some money wit hit. On the other hand I’ve lost money because Rolution turned out to be a scam. All time, energy and money I’ve put into Rolution was for nothing. Back in july I joined just been paid and by the end of august the website went black and the message showed up that just been paid turned into Profitclicking. There we go again, was the first thing that came to mind. I thought here is another money makning opportunity that disappears end again I loose my money, time end energy I’ve putinto this opportunity. But after more the one month the profitclicking website started to look like it was really turning into an even better website than just been paid. Also I started to follow blogs, social media pages and the conference room for information on what Profitclicking was doing.

Now that the year has ended and 2013 has just begun I’m convinced that Profitclicking will become fully operational in 2013. I also think Profitclicking will be much better than just been paid end i twill be here for the long run. Of course I sometimes doubt if they will get everything back on track just like people are saying in the conference room or on Facebook. I sometimes think about the money they have or maybe the money they don’t have. It would be a great explination for the time it takes to get everything up and running. Also the promotions like adding new money for 3 % makes me think they are looking for new money. But just like they are saying I think  we should think possitive and not panic. Let’s just wait and see how Profitclicking wil become the biggest and the best opportunity to make money online in 2013! For now I wish you all the best for 2013!

3 % Daily sales profits continu untill januari 15th

Profitclicking continues to give their members 3 % daily sales profits until January 15^th. This would be the ideal time to buy new adpacks because they will cycle faster with the 3 % profits. At the end of October 2012 there was the last profitshift so people are wondering when the next will be. Most likely somewhere in February but nobody knows for sure. In the new years member update they announced that the profitshift check was completed so the next profitshift will go a lot faster and without any problems. Also they told us that the PC Panels should be turning up in our dashboards within the next few weeks and you know what that means, more money.

Meanwhile I’ve been thinking about a strategy to use for my Profitclicking earnings. I’ve set my goal, I want to make $ 100,- per day, that’s $ 600,- every week! When I earn that I will continue to invest 50 % to 70 %. I also think it’s good to have some money available to upgrade or to make a withdrawal if needed. I have to say, my first goal was $ 50,- now it’s $ 100,- and most likely my next goal will be $ 200,- or $ 250,-.

Things have been exciting and worrying at the same time with Profitclicking in 2012 and in 2013 still a lot needs to be done. I have the confidence it will turn out all good this year. Justbeenpaid has been around since 2004 starting with the JSS positions and later they added the Trippler positions and so on. August 2012 they turned into Profitclicking and they say they want to continue to be here for the long run just like JBP. I’m confident they will succeed and it’s the number one opportunity to make money online for me right now.

And last but not least, HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!

Profitclicking DSP up and running within 48 hours

It looks like ProfitClicking is getting their system on track. The last ten days the daily sales profits have been running every 48 hours. Just two days and new commisions are coming in! There’re where some problems with the last profitshift but it looks like they’ve almost resolved those. People where worried that ProfitClicking was on track to become the next HYIP that would leave their members without anything but still a lot is happening at ProfitClicking headquarters. For example the training center is up and running and also a nice new feature has just been launched that offers the possibility to get a tekst message on your cell phone when you’ve received new earnings. Now that’s fun to get a tekst message every day telling you you’ve got money!

Now that the daily sales profits are up and running (every 48 hours, soon i twill be every 24 hours again) there’s still one more thing the members are waiting for. The ad packages that where conferted will turn into ad panels (4 ad packs = 1 ad panel). Every ad panel will give you another $ 60,-. Untill now the ad panels are not yet active. The ad panels are another big feature to get even more money with ProfitClicking.

Why is it taking so long for Profitclicking to get everything up and running? I don’t know, no one knows. When they give an update they often anounce a lot of things but unfortunately not those things we all want to know. Personally I’ve accepted the fact that things are taking long fort hem to get the program 100 % functional because I can see that there’re things changing so they’re actually doing something. Now that the daily sales profits are running again I’m confident that we can expect the ad panels tob e running again in the first quarter of 2013.

Using a link structure

Three months ago I got questions about how to build backlinks. People asked me if I could give examples and methods on how to build high quality backlinks. Over the past few weeks I’ve given you ways to get different kinds of backlinks. If you used them all you have hundreds of high quality backlinks by now and you website should be on the first page for the keywords you want your website to be found on. If not, don’t worry because SEO never ends. There’re much more ways to get your website to the place you want it to be.

No matter if you used video marketing, article marketing, Image links or web 2.0’s, you can make your previous SEO even more powerful using certain link structures. The thing you do is actually the same as what you do for your own website, you will build backlinks for the backlinks you’ve build for your website. Are you still following this? Let me give you an example:

One of the things I wrote about in a previous post was creating mini websites. If you did you probably have a couple of little websites with several pages, pictures, video’s, social media and of course backlinks to your website. these backlinks are high quality. To make them even more high quality you can build some web 2.0’s, some article marketing, Audio links, Image links, video marketing or maybe even another mini website around them. That way you use SEO to make the mini website climb the rankings giving you an even better and higher quality backlink to your website.

Here’s an example of a link structure:

Thought you had done everything to get your website to the first page? Did you think you’re out of options? Try using this structure and maximize your SEO work up until now!

Backlinks from blog comments

Placing comment on blogs offers you a possibility to also leave your website URL behind but there are some things you need to know about blog comments.

Automated blog comments

Like I mentioned before, getting backlinks the easy way means the backlinks you´re getting are worthless. Of course the same goes for blog comments. There´s a lot of software that helps you find relevant blogs and also helps you to make a lot of comments all in one time. One of those programs is Scrapebox. The program itself works great, it has a lot of features and it really does what it says it does. The problem these days is that Google knows what kind of comments are auto generated and also which blogs are relevant or are just there to get backlinks from. That way it´s hard to make sure what kind of backlinks you´re getting. You may think you´re getting a lot of good quality and relevant links but in fact you´re getting all links from spam blogs and your comments are duplicated content. Unfortunately software like Scrapebox won´t help your rankings anymore (even though a lot of people will disagree with me on this).

The way you should use blog commenting

Imagine your website is on the fourth page in the search engine result page for a keyword you want to be found on. When you take a look at the websites above your website, you should look if these websites have a blog or article section. If they do you can try to make a comment. Try to really read the article first and try to make a relevant comment so that the website owner leaves your comment there because it actually contributes to his or her website/post. When you post a comment most of the time you can leave your name (try to use the keyword you prefer), email and your website. Once you comment gets approved your website becomes a backlink and often the name is used as the anchor.

When you try to get comments on the website that are high in the search results you get backlinks from pages that have a high ranking in the niche you want to be on the first page for. Personally I believe blog comments are a good way to mix up your backlinks and to get backlinks from relevant websites in the same niche. Using just blog comments I don’t think will do the job, there simply not very high quality on their own.

Mini website with social media

Social media is also very important. When you have a website make sure you also have a Facebook page, Twitter account and a YouTube channel for it. Also make sure you make it easy for visitors to share your website by adding share buttons.

The different kinds of backlinks you’ve created this far can also be shared on social media. Another way is to create little websites and to add a lot of social media to them and also, when the mini websites are finished, spread them on different kinds of social media.

Mini websites

We’ve talked about Web 2.0 properties before. Using these kinds of websites offers you the possibility to build little websites with backlinks to your own website. Instead of just adding one article with 300 to 500 words you can create a website with the following features:

1. Homepage
2. Content page 1 (Information about the subject of your website)
3. Content page 2 (Information about the subject of your website)
4. About Us
5. Testimonials
6. Contact
7. Social Media integration:
• Facebook
• Twitter
• YouTube
• Tumblr
• Email this
• StumbleUpon
• Booksmark this 

When you've finished the mini website you can share it on social media in different ways:

Website links: 

• Twitter
• Facebook
• Tumblr
• StumbleUpon 

Pictures: 

• Instagram 
• Pinterest 

Video:

• Youtube
• Facebook (link)
• Twitter (link)
• Tumblr (link)
• StumbleUpon (link) 

For the mini websites you’ve create you can also use SEO to make them more valuable in the search engines. When there’re more valuable, the backlinks to your URL will be more high quality as well! That’s why this method should really do the trick to get your websites on the first page in the search engines.

Great website to use to build mini websites and social media integration are:

• Blog.com
• Blogger.com
• Wordpress.com
• Jimdo.com
• Webnode.com
• Webs.com

Of course there are a lot more Web 2.0 websites you can use to build mini websites. It takes more work and more time but the quality of the backlink will be very high.

Getting backlinks with uploading Audio files (website list)

Looking at all the ways to get backlinks written about on this blog you’ve probably thought about this one already. When you can get a backlink from a website where you uploaded pictures and/or videos, you can also get backlinks from websites where you upload audio files. You can take pictures yourself or find them on the internet. Videos can be easily created with windows movie maker. Now do you create an audio file? There probably are many ways to create audio files but let me describe the way I did it.

Creating an audio file

Go to ispeech.org and create an account. Login (use free version) and go to ‘enter text’. Fill out the text you want to be spoken in your audio file. I’d recommend to create a file that’s no longer than one minute. You can choose between male and female voices, different dialects and you can also adjust the speed of talking. When you think it sounds ok you can download the audio file in mp3. Now you’ve got just the spoken words. What I did was I used Audacity to add music to the audio file. You can download Audicity here: Audacity.googlecode.com/files/audacity-win-2.0.1.exe. When you’ve installed the program you can simply import the mp3 with spoken words and ad a music mp3 as well. Make sure both files are the same length so that the full song without the words doesn’t keep running. Also make sure the spoken words and the music are balanced right. Otherwise you won’t hear the words because the music is too loud. You can manage this on the left side of the menu. Than select export and save as .wave file.

Now you have an audio file to upload on the websites given below. Here you can add you URL to your profile and in most cases to the description of the audio file. Good luck! 

• Soundcloud.com
• Yourlisten.com
• Audiofarm.org
• Unsigned.com
• Audioboo.fm
• Tweewoo.com
• Sutros.com
• Muziboo.com
• Purevolume.com
• Last.fm
• Audiosharescript.com
• Musopen.org
• Reverbnation.com
• Sharemyplaylists.com
• Alonetone.com
• Wearehunted.com
• Hypem.com
• Artistserver.com
• Mixcloud.com
• Weloveyoursongs.com
• Mobypicture.com
• Fiql.com
• Chirbit.com
• F3music.com
• Buzznet.com

I think looking at the other methods of getting backlinks this is one of the most unique ways. Therefor this is a very valuable method because not a lot of people use this method. It will definitely mix up your link diversity.
