What is dripfeed and linkwheel?



They're like they sound.

Dripfeeding is staggering your link building over time. For instance, you purchase 1,000 links from a service have it set to build 100 a day for 10 days, or 50 the first day, 100, the second, 200 the third, etc. until you reach that limit.

Link Wheels are a type of link building. There are many variations, but you generally have the "money site" at the center surrounded by types of links, Web 2.0's, Forums, etc., in a Wheel pattern.

So, which is better in online marketing?
 
Then the question seems to be which is better:
- social bookmarking
- article writing
- blog commenting

is that correct?

Yes, in regards to only discussing types of links. No, in regards to being able answer fully; it's a very loaded question which depends on a variety of variables.

  • Bookmarks
    • How many are built per account?
    • How old are the accounts?
    • How many links are linking to each account?
    • How targetted are each link in the account to other links in the account?
    • What's the age of the bookmarking website?
    • How authoritative is each site?
    • etc.
  • Articles
    • How many links are on the page the article is on?
    • Is it a private or public site?
    • How related are each articles on the site to one another?
    • Are the links in the article DoFollow or NoFollow?
    • Is the article below or above the side navigation?
    • What's the age of the site?
    • etc.
  • Blogs
    • How many outbound links are in the Comment section?
    • Are the comments split after x amount that forces yours to the second page?
    • How many links are in the main post?
    • Is the post related to your link?
    • Is your link's anchor text a name or keyword?
    • How authoritative is the site?
    • etc.
These are just several considerations out of 100's that affect link building. You can have a better link building result one day just from bookmarks than mix and matching if the variables work out right, and the next it may get you nowhere.

You're obviously someone who hasn't hand-built your own links to see what works or understands how to analyze niche competition. There's nothing wrong with that, everyone has to start somewhere. However, you need to spend a month not using any software or paying for services and do this yourself, then do nothing to the site for 2 months and see what happens. Repeat 5 times on other niches in that time frame, then come back to this thread and think critically about what I just said above.
 
WOW...

lots of helpful data, but why don't you think I use any software for building links to my sites?

I have a few micro niche sites (monetized with adsense) that I want to promote and thought of buying backlinks for it. should I do that now, or what will be the first step to do?

I didn't say that. I said that you obviously don't understand the core concepts of link building, which you would only learn by doing it by hand to see how each piece fits in with the whole of a decent link-building strategy.

If you reread my last paragraph in the above post prior to your reply, you'd see what I think you should do.

  1. Don't use link building software or pay for link building services for a month.
  2. Spend that month putting up 6 websites in different niches with roughly the same competition in each.
  3. Write down a different link building strategy for each of those 6 websites.
  4. Use a keyword tracking service like MicroSiteMasters to track the keywords of each site.
  5. Review the progress after 2 months of finishing your link building.
With this, you will see what happens in rankings with each strategy while you built links, and how well the rankings stayed after you built links. 2 months is a good time-frame to see what works best, and you can compare results between the niches and strategies.

You shouldn't use a software or services if you have no concept of how pieces fit. It's a waste of your resources, and you won't know what you're getting when it works or doesn't to make changes because the software automates manual tasks, and the services do them without you watching.

I can't explain it much clearer than that.
 
you are a gold mine for me as a newbie :)

more questions:
- what is the spinnable articles?
- what is a spun format?
- should I hire a writer as I am terrible in writing or I should do it myself as well?
Why dont you google it???

Anyway here you go

what is the spinnable articles?
Spinnable articles are seperated with synonymous "|" symbol(for eg., good|nice|awesome) these words will get spinned randomly and posted in articles directories or where ever u want.

- what is a spun format?
read the above answer.

should I hire a writer as I am terrible in writing or I should do it myself as well?
If it is so terrible then ofcourse u have to hire them:drinkup:.
 
Link wheel is having about 5 or so pages belonging to popular social media sites pointing to each other in an attempt to improve its rankings. There are mixed opinions about the legitimacy of link-wheels and you can assume it to be a grey-wheelSEO...

There is nothing wrong with providing good and diverse content on a certain topic you are good at, and then linking them to other articles that you have written. What is WRONG will be if you do so but act in a spammy manner: doing crazy linking for no other purposes than to increase your links.

So, the key is to make it as natural as possible.

Whereas dripfeed is automatic link building service.
 
any suggestion for good cheap writers around?

I was scammed before so need a trusted one

If you are looking for service providers this is a pretty good place to outsource. There are many variations of providers that offer different services at different prices. If you want to see whats working or who is good at what, hit the enlightened members sections, read the case studies, look that the member who started the threads iTraders. Senior members are buying from quality providers. We also have to pay for sales threads here which cuts down on scammers and bitches. If someone starts acting shady we have a section for outing them as well - a mod is quick to ban a service provider not acting right.
 
Dripfeed I guess that means it must be cool in the process and not rush back to back, or you lose and link wheel is is the powerful technique to improve the PR of the website. It based on the Link juice technique where we make the different wheel of Blog sites, 2.0 website, Article website and Bookmarking website.
