No matter what you are building or doing in life I didnt get good at something by only blasting really hard at it got short period off time.
I feel that its is the exactly the same thing going on with SEO, to consistently add links daily. So you will have to be okay with grinding it out and not to see any movements in the SERPS or like wiht my second project now that got indexed a few days ago that is jumping like ball on a rubber string.

Im more then okey to do the grind because I believe in what Im doing so there will be results.

Am I doing everything manually, NO. I have bought some services and I have downloaded tools yo help me out. Im getting more and more interested in u BOt since I know have two off them that im using for forum profile creations. they are not flawless, but okey to run in the background. I also rely on unique article wizard and a tiny bit SeNuke for web 2.0 properties.

What I have fallen in love with though is the latest investment Scrapebox and I'm still learning the ropes but Im having a good time. I would love some pointers on blog commenting. I understand that for my comment to actually be approved so do they need to be good, I have just started to build a tiny list with comments that I try to spin as much as possible sot hey don't get caught in spam filters. I managed to a wicked list of footprints that im playing around with. Im quite impressed by such a simple tool.

So the general plan we all follow is.

1. Get A Webiste
2. Get Traffic
3. Get paid

I got the first one down on two sites, i built them

Here comes the fun part Im starting to get consistent stream of traffice and its growing every day (this is on site one) this is on low competition and volume keywords. SO it not a massive amounts off trafiic it has been about 30 ish the last days, and I have been having about 10% CTR to the offer and no conversion. So the first thing I wan to know here what is descent number to shoot for as CTR as minimum. I asked me friend who is doing Paid search in Google and he scrapped any lander that didnt produce a minumum off 50% in CTR. So what is a good number to aim for from organic traffic?

I also took a good hard look on the content on the site yesterday and I it absolute crap content (I wrote it my self) I just assume that real
quality content makes a huge difference so Im getting somebody to help me out with it. What help/tools is out there to help out with split testing? Is it even possible, or will fuck up the SEO?

The number of ranking is in here which feels good.

1. Keyword+reviews Pos: 4 search volume 96 daily exact
2. Keyword+scam Pos: 6 search volume 75 daily exact
3. keyword Pos: 14 search volume 595 daily exact

I dont think I would gone for those keywords or that site today because I know better now, There will never be alot off traffic but I dont like to leave things undone and will rank this sucker. I have come this far in in a bit more then two week and will get that sucker up there.. Maybe I can sell it over at DP when Im done

There have also happened a ton on the new page and Im learning fro the mistakes that I made from the the first site and applying it straight away. IM already on second page for one keyword one week in and will give a detailed update soon..

think about it this way:

30 visitors a day * 10% CTR * ~3% Conversion Rate (pulled out of thin air) = 0.09 conversions per day

at those percentages, to get 1 conversion a day, you need 333 visitors per day (roughly)

Just to put things in perspective for you. At your rate, you could potentially be getting a conversion every 11 days or so. If that any of those numbers go up or down, you'd have to adjust accordingly.

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh

This has been a most interesting weekend at the same time as I have been absolutely drained. I have now been going at it working 6 weeks in a row 7 days every week. So I hit my wall on the saturday off being completely drained, slept for three more hours that I usually do and just being knocked out off energy. It's just a part off the motion I have gotten like this before and it is just to accept it and don't do shit. It is just part off working 24/7, and two or three days off slacking off will get me back on the track. I haven't really gotten any fancy shit done, actually the only links that have been placed are the automated.

So that was the boring stuff off this weekend now till fun part...

Well before I started this thread so did I send an email to some off my reps at 3 networks and asked around, I asked my Azoogle rep to give me their top performing re-bill and got a list from him. Did some keyword research but not a lot. Got a site up created some blog and did some basic stuff with a trial off senuke and some blog commenting nothing fancy at all. Ordered 20 articles and had them posted. Did some more in depth keyword research and realized that Google didn't show any traffic for my keywords bummer (well done )

That was when I decided to to my journal thread and do it the next site with some help. Here comes the best part, that was probably about 4 weeks a ago now since i started it and i haven't done any link building since I started this thread. It is a site with a free theme and 20 articles with my aff link in the bottom and banner to the right, and it is making money haha not much... well it turned out that google estimations on my keyword was a bit off.. I have now had quite a bit off backlinks coming in for that site and it is ranking on 6 position these last days had about 20 daily visitors there as well and about 50% click-through rate and 3conversions a $30 piece (I think I just have been extremely lucky with the conversion and expecting it to drop down to the 5% mark).
That made me decide to focus just a tiny bit off attention to that site and get it ranked in the top 2, so that has been fun to actually see somebody buy the shit that they click on

So I know have the responsibility over three sites which is more then enough right now. I'm ranking quite well for my next site as well, I'm on first page on all three keywords pos 4,6 and 9. I just need to work a bit more with the content on that site since I have actually written it on my own and I cant write for shit (you probably notice if you're reading this thread).

I'm really starting to like SEO more, If you look at the different things that I have tried.
I did paid search in the beginning but if you want to test acampaing properly so will you need some serious cash. I have made some small cash through Facebook/Twitter and I'm never ever going to something like that, doing black/grey hat stuff on social media platforms is just so god damn annoying that I want to shot myself. It a constant cat and mouse game to find loopholes to take advantage off and capitalize ASAP before they notice and shut it down.


What I like about SEO is that I think its about 10% brain to lay out my strategy then is it all about doing it and actually execute to follow trough. The harder I work the more links I get. It is a very gratifying feeling to see my first site's ranking, page one, clicks, conversion, the whole process just motivates me every day. I know that I can rank all these sites there is no doubt in my head, I will just grind it out a bit more and I'm there. Then can I start to think about how to convert all those people.

And yeah no boobs or today, I cant be bothered to think off new niche, give me some tips for next time..

Peace out..

Hey...

Have been away from this thread for some days now. I guess it the natural process for me I feel that so much stuff is going my way right now. I still work my ass off since it the only way to complete success

I have for the curios once out there made whopping $150 which I find highly rewarding for a site that is placed on pos 6 for the keyword.. So there is some room to maybe get some more cash if I can get it up a few positions soon enough...

The other two sites that Im running are under construction this week as Im taking care of getting killer content on both off them so I expect the rankings that I have accumulated to g to shit for a little while...

I'm sitting here and thinking on what I shall write down to keep this thread interesting to me, and the possible readers, what is there that they could want to know.

Well I think I think I mentioned it in a earlier post that for me so is SEO %10 and then %90 actually putting your money where your mouth is and do the dirty work, and Im deep down in the working like hungry and whipped slave. Im driven by me own ego not to fail. IM actually gonna have few days off from tomorrow to re-charge. Gonna go over to London to tear it up for a week and have a good time and only work trough the days.

SO I have invested 6 weeks in my life into learning SEO. I have invested about $30 for content on a site with hosting and privacy guard for $15, plus about 2 weeks off my time... Yes I only worked on it two week prior to this thread and then I let it sit and the links have slowly been coming in.
It has now started to yield results and make money and will probably be more, so far a total off $150. So I will go back to it and put down some more time on it...

Here come the crazy part I didnt even know what kind off links you could get prior this 6 weeks I knew dick about SEO... Im no wizz yet but I have the will power to grind it out, and try it all.
So any off you that wonders how to start just do it and work it out along the way.

Yeah I know i have had tattooed chicks before, but I love them and its getting hard as hell to find new niches....

So been away now for a week due to other business in London. Writing this on the flight back to Sweden, yeah I know ad tech starts this week but made a huge miss calculation in scheduling so it will have to be next time.

I have had an interesting week business wise. I have been doing regular check ups on my sites but haven't done any link building at all and I kind off miss it.

What's stuff has happened then .

1. Made $250 last week on one off the sites
2. The offer got paused on the sunday due to payment issues. They started it back up today.
3. Got my hosting account hacked so all my sites were down for about 24 hour on the monday.
4. Got my computer raped by some cocksucking black hatter sneaking a trojan on my computer that detected "viruses" and the only option to remove it was to buy their anti virus software. Yeah right how stupid do they think I am. Took me 1 hour to find the solution and a few more hours to scan and clean it out.
5. Realised that even how wonderful women are, they are at the moment a big distraction from getting shit done.

My sites are still doing well in the rankings. I have done so much random link building to all off them, that they move up in rankings and links have been coming in all week.

What I will focus on right now the closest days is the content that I have on the sites. One off them just have some random seo'd article on them so I could rank on, and need to be changed out with proper copy.

I got an awesome email that let me know that I from tomorrow have access to and can use, link farm evolution, xrumer, bookmarking demon and few more tools. So the internet need to watch out this coming weeks

I'm coming back now and I'm hungrier then ever, I think that is the good thing about taking breaks like this. So my goal now is to do efficient work 6 days every week for 4 weeks until it is Vegas time again

And no chicks today since I'm posting from the Blackberry.

Micha

oh boy...


This last week has been most interesting a lot off coffee and a few hours online with blue host technicians.


So let's recap what has happened. end of last week was fucking kick ass I was back from a party week in London and ready to rock..

Blog number one was still banking and pretty good actually, it managed to give me $500 in two weeks that was until the trouble started.

I started to notice some issues in the wp-admin panels on my blog, got errors in my php code. I have had this issue a week or so before and knew what was up but not to what degree. I had been hacked I knew since before that some cocksucker had manage to run some script to and insert an iframe on my sites that messed things up. The crew at bluehost cleaned it up last time, at least that's what i thought.

Well this time everything I had crashed 3 domains with site and one where I have installed PIWIK... I ended up on the phone asap and my friend over at BH now did I check in the logs while we were talking and we noticed that somebody in Russia had my cpanel password and was downloading and uploading while we were talking. FUCK ME SIDEWAYS, that was a 10 character password with small and big letters numbers and and special characters. So we had a look at my stuff and he ad literary fucked everything over we did spend almost three hours on the phone messing around back an fourth since this dude have had my password for a few weeks now YEahh for international calls

in the end... I had to tear down all the sites reinstall wordpress get new databases for two off them and re upload content and do everything that took a few cups off coffee......

Whats the consequenses???? Yeah I have been dropping in and out in the SERPS like a god damn Yo-Yo and not making any money. The site that was banking good got a nice competitor that came out off the blue and took my spot, but I checked his links out and they are 70%-80% blogcomments so that shall be easy to beat.


Yeah,after I have teared down my sites re uploaded them in 95% the same way as before so am I hungry to rank the shit out of them again...

So the site that is making me money, was sitting in google holding 3 and 4 pos had about 50 daily visitors and converted about 1.1 times per day. The best part is that the keyword doesn't get any traffic according to google.
The follow up question would be WTF would I even try to rank that then. WELL it's the first site that I did just before this thread and the first time I ever touched a SEO project. I chose the keyword because I wanted to be sure that I could rank it really easy so I could get a feeling for what it could be like, and then shoot for the sort tail KW. I will still do this but I didnt think I would make any money ranking it on the long tail that is the domain name and product name.

I also had a really long conversation to a really good friend off mine that has been doing strictly paid search and is starting up in SEO. The conclusion that we both came to is that SEO is far from as advanced that we both first thought.

I now have the reason why tons off people fail at it they don't follow trough with the grind off it. I know tons off people that get easily bored of the constant link building that adn the wait with no actions.

I myself have ZERO patience and will pester people around me on AIM whenever things go shit. I always get the same answer and it has been true every time... CHILL OUT it's just dancing around in the SERPS.... SO thanks both Dchuck and Grindstone


And now back to work some more... I know I said in the beginning That I would build minimum 50 links per day, and I don't do it consistent like that anymore I usually do way more then that And I havent fully automated services creating about 200 links each day plus all the extra manual labor I', pulling so I have no idea off the exact numbers. I do pull alot off work with scrapebox right now

And that's it until next few days..... Keep grinding it...

And some swedish chicks today

Hmm where are we now in this tale of ups and downs? Well Nothing has really been the same since I had to tear down my sites and upload them again. I didn't really upload all off them the exact same way so that was aware that it was gonna be in stable.

The site I have that was making money is ab it down in the serps at the moment since I chose to send some nice xrumer links straight on it I got shot down on page 50 but it has slowly started to climb again. I was up at the top for one day before I got knocked down by the G man. I keep a steady eye on the top 3 and it is very turbulent when I look at my competition and there has been a new number one every day for the last week. I cant see any reason or pattern behind as well. Almost everything on Page one has been on top position so far. I assume that I will climb back up there pretty soon again. OR I might have been sandbox (I rarely doubt it though)

The strategy I now have set out to use kuudos Grindstone is 500 daily blasts with drip feed blast, I deep link and then setup My internal linking structure to have every page point to my main domain. It is the opposite off what my competitors are doing. I then ad quality links manually. I aqquired a nice pack off HIGH PR links in the sidebar of nice site 20 in total on PR 4-6 pages I also adding daily blog comment links on auto approve blogs where I drop my anchor text instead of my name since its auto approve. I have also created a nice set of squidoo lenses that I will use as a buffer for shitty blog comment links since I run scrapebox 24/7 searching for nice auto approve blogs

I have also juts recently found out an FREAKIN AWESOME way to find nice high PR links that I will be adding as well to my money site....

I have done one more start ups this week as well, and I have looked at my competition that I keep running into and I decided to try to to the site structure the same way. ONE page He or them just have on page and that's it, so I'm gonna try to rank a really thin site to see the difference. I Think I have this startup phase nailed down, There are a ton off automated featues that helps out a ton. I have UAW,Drip Feed Blasts - A Powerful Scheduled Xrumer Service, [STAGGERED BACKLINKS + DOUBLE PASSING] High PR, DoFollow, RSS Indexing, Daily Reports, they are coming in daily I have been eying ou Dchuck's "The Booster" - High Quality Mini-Net With Comment Blast Linking For Just $36 and http://www.wickedfire.com/links-seo/...-comments.html

When I have all this services so I have a really streamlined start-up process for minisites. I still do "quality" Links manually and shoot them down with Scrapebox links and I mess around a bit with SE PUKE and send their links on buffer sites I have set up.

I still work practically 24/7 and will do this hustle until I do $100 profit per day then will I take 2 days off NAH joking I probably will want to make most out of the situation and try to make more

OS back to today's title, What keeps me going? I got that question a few days ago and I asked myself. The conclussion that I got is that I just look at making it in IM as come thing as certain as eating dying sleeping, Never for one second questioned if I should be doing this or not. The question about quitting never comes up on the table. I do bitch alot and loose sleep wehn things goes south on my sites. That's when I cry adn bitch to friends on messenger only to here "relax" the site is only dancing around it will be back, guess what? It always comes back

So the rankings off my site are all over the place I have sites on first page for low volume terms but no site is generating money just now and we will see where i will take them. I sat down with friend on skype and came to a stoploss I have on my project now. If a site is not cash Positive after 6 months and I dropped $1,500 in it so will I ditch it.

I do take breaks though I did yesterday I only ran scrapebox and did nothing serious as I was tired as slave back on the track today and ready for some manual linking in a bit

That was my rambling thoughts after this week off chaos..

peace out

-M

adn yeah titties today will probably be to the one chick/family that has whored themself out to the most amount of merchandise they possibly can.. And we are all grateful for that

+rep dude, subscribed!

props on the hard work and keeping this journal updated, I just went through the whole thing.

Can you give some details on how you got hacked, so that we can try to prevent that from happening to us? Or do you not know how you got hacked?

I was trying to decide between SENuke, backlinks genie or layered links - your review of senuke made my mind up to toss that one out of the running, thanks =)

Yo... the weekly update in between the grind.

It has been a most interesting week for me and I really like it.....

My sites has stabilzed themself since the major fuckup off being hacked which really messed me up, adn to answer the question to how I know I was hacked..

Well it first started with that I had some smaller errors and i talked with the support at the hosting company and he looked trough the wp pages. He noticed iframes inserted here and there and that what was made him say that I was hacked since it was common when you have been hacked.

I later noticed it when Everything went properly to shit since the support then looked at my logs for login on my ftp and noticed that somebody was downloading and uploading files LIVE when iw as on the phone with him.

How to avoid it, he said (his theory) that they probably entered trough old version of wordpress that I had installed. It was common that scripts could find security holes in both older WP installs and older plugins. SO keep your shit up to date.

Well why was this week so good?

It actually started out like shit, I for some reason didnt realize that my so far earned commission that I earned would be payed out next payment and not in the end off the month, I got it changed to net 15 now

So I was broke when it comed to paying for linkbuiliding which I prefer to do today. That meant that I needed to brainstorm and hustle, and it turned out really fucking awesome --{BRUTE FORCE BLOG COMMENTING}--{WITH ANCHORS}—review inside (I know shamelss plug, but it's my thread so WTF) I started that service for a few reasons.

I enjoy messing around with spamming alot, I actually think that it will be my forte I have done it to a quite extent now and have built myself quite a list now that I can use and Im growing it like cray. The thread has been alive for one week and I have had a crazy amount off response, I justs started it to make some change for content and some other small stuff. It turns out it will cover all my link building costs and will make a descent profit from it as well if It keeps up like this.

I'm not making a ton off money right now off my sites but I have a few conversion per week, but I havent done too much linkbuilding either. I have stopped to trough absolutely everything at them like I did in the start. I know have the money to buy practically anthing I want from BST here in WF now. So Im gonna set a side a minumum off $500 every month plus content, and be way more tactical in my approach now. I'm not SEO wiz yest (far from). But I have started to get a feeling off what works and not, which feels good..

Only three more days of work now then am I off to VEGAS for 8 days to become the most decadent Swede ever set his foot in the Nevada Desert (its usually quite easy, god I love drunken American chicks) So If I don't write until then take care and peace out.

Micha

Great blog posts. Keep them coming. I can't believe you do all of this work yourself. I always hire people off of Odesk to do this stuff for like $10. My only problem is that I don't really have any quality control. It's like turning a bunch of monkeys loose on 10 typewriters.

Sakana

^ If that's the case, then you need Quality Assurance in-place.

onkelmicha

So here we are 2 months after this thread died out with too much noise going on, so what happened did I give up or just didn't care wasn't I'm for me?

The last post i made her was the night before I went to a 8 day trip to Vegas with my other job.

Well to cut it short I ended up with some personal and personal issues that made me re-priorities what was important for me and the blog just didn't make the cut.

I am very grateful that I did start this thread late this summer because It really made me take responsibility to man up and work on my sites that I started. I recommended it to anybody that are staring out with any venture online. I have messed around all year and made some small cash here and there but never really noticed any sort off consistency.

I Have that today, I'm not a millionaire but I ended up with $2600 last month in profit and I'm quite proud off that. Now my sites were about $1200 off that the rest I made with providing services for other people.

A qucik look back and maybe hwat i ahve learned, I basically wen to my aff networks adn grabbed the name off all the rebills they had did the keyword research based upon the productnames and not nthe niche. I found some really nice offer and I think I managed to launch about 4 site during the thread was alive and 2 off them went on doing really well. I just needed to rank them within top 3 and they started to make some money I learned a lot and I'm still learning every day.

Right now so do I know that I am capable off making sites with putting in the elbow grease doing it manually but I'm really curious to automatic I can make the process, so I started a new challenge with myself.

I just setup 4 new sites 1 page of content a piece of copy optimized SEO optimized on the product name I have domains that are direct matches or hyphenated matches.

I started them out with 150 automated low quality social bookmarks. I followed that up with 500 daily Xrumer blast with DFB and its still running. As I left that running for 3 weeks so did I just recently just add drip feed articles with Unique article wizard. I will in next week go to UAW and find which ones off my submission actually got approved and pic them out and start a raging Scrapebox campaigning on them all. I will then sit down and evaluate with sites that I think are worth my time and money.

I just assume that I will ditch 2 off the sites. the first thing I will do is to start adding content because I noticed while its easy to rank thin spammy affiliate sites so are they also very volatile in their SERPS. So the solution start adding content and focus on the internal linking structure as well

So am I an SEO pro yet? NO I dont think I ever will call me that, I do however really really enjoy trying to rank shit and I think I have started to get a descent grip on what does work and not work. the biggest thing you all need is freaking consistency and just sticking in there and doing the legwork. SEO is not rocketscience.

So I'm gonna drop on here in week or tow to drop a line or two about my automated rankings to see if It worked at all the way I wanted.

and thanks fro all the readers that I have had.


Peace out and no titties today because Im pissed my cpu fan just broke



peace out Micha
