Everybody who is involved in internet marketing and search engine optimization has definitely heard about Google Panda algorithm and penalties associated with it. It has been talked about for so long, so people got used to it and in one way or another we are all trying to cope with it, hoping that bad times are behind us. But you know what? It is not over yet.
Now there is a big buzz going around the web that they are about to introduce new penalties for over optimized websites. It means that if you did what was said in SEO books even one year ago, you can end up in being penalized for it. We personally think that Google is becoming too obsessed as they have enough analytics already to recognize dodgy sites. It seems they behave like the one who could not get enough and want more and more until ..read more
We are still receiving a lot of questions with regards to Google Panda update and how to deal with it. We pretty much covered this topic in our Google Panda Overview post. If you have not read it, we strongly recommend doing this as soon as possible. There are a lot of buzz around the Internet about this topic, but is this really the topic you should read again and again?
It seems like most internet marketing, so-called gurus are trying to do the best to scare people around, so they can flog their products to them. Do you know that the most powerful marketing strategy is based on fear? If the person is scared to death, then it is very easy to sell them a solution, even though it is a very basic one. And you can charge that person a premium price for a method, which claims to help ..read more
Recently we have been receiving a lot of questions similar to this one:
“We checked backlinks, using different backlinks checker tools and we could not see links, which we bought on your website. Why we cannot see them there?”
The answer to this question is very simple. Those backlinks have not been picked up by those tools as they do not update their databases very often. Let’s take opensiteexplorer backlinks checker tool. They clearly state that they update their database every thirty days or even less often. The situation with Majestic SEO is a little bit better, but still they do not update their base very often too.
You also need to remember that their capacity is much less than Google’s and they simply might miss some of websites during their crawling process.
The most accurate tool out there would be would be Google Webmaster Tools, which can be found here: www.google.com/webmasters/tools/. You can ..read more
We have been receiving a lot of requests to make it clearer when buying text links as some of our advertisers were confused what type of links they were purchasing. As usually, we have taken your feedbacks into account and added a new menu item, called ‘Buy Backlinks’, where you can select what kind of backlinks you want to buy.
You can still go to ‘My Target Pages’ and click on ‘Add Links’ button to buy backlinks. If you do so, then you will be able to search for any types of text links there as before. You can still filter link pages out from that page, by selecting appropriate link type property.
We hope this will help our advertisers to find link pages they are really looking for.
Just a reminder on types of backlinks you can currently buy on our website:
Simple text links – these are links, which represent a simple ..read moreSo you’ve got yourself a web site and you’re interested in gaining it some traffic for whatever reason. Many webmasters knows how difficult of a task this can be if the appropriate paths are not taken. Most webmasters out there also know how important traffic is to a web site’s popularity and therefore its success. Traffic doesn’t create itself, which is why as a webmaster, you’ll need to create some yourself. While there are many ways to draw traffic to your web site, through things like unique content and competitive deals, many of these still don’t work efficiently as they don’t magically draw attention to your web site if you don’t have others willing to do that for you. You’ll have to establish relationships with other webmasters in order to redirect some of their traffic your way so that you can benefit from it through the gaining of new regular ..read more
There have been a lot of discussions whether it is safe or not to buy backlinks. And there are two camps. Webmasters say that you should not buy text links. The second group says that you should. To be honest, neither of them is right, but we tend to think that you can use payable one way links to improve your search engine ranking, even after Google Panda update. To prove it we have completed several tests with several websites of our clients, which were dropped in ranking, using links in our inventory only. The results were quite amazing.
One of websites had couple of dozen pages ranked on the first page of Google for very competitive keywords. About a month and a half ago the whole website dropped in ranking and instead of being in the top of SERP, they all had positions between 100 and 500. Sounds very familiar ..read more
As you know we are working very hard to make our services better for both publishers and advertisers. Most of you might have noticed that we added an ability to change prices for backlinks sold on publishers’ link pages.
But there was still a limitation that the price would stay the same no matter what happens with PageRank of the page. What that meant is that if PageRank increases and the price for backlinks is not changed, that page would have an underestimated price for text links on it. And vice versa, if PageRank for a particular link page drops, then the price for it could be too high, so advertisers will never decide to buy text link ads on that page.
To address this concern we decided to add default pricing feature, which would allow our publishers to define prices depending on PageRank changes. This feature will allow backlink prices to ..read more
As you might have noticed there has been a lot of talking about Google Panda and what it actually means for your online business. There are many internet marketers who were hit by it and thousands of websites were either de-indexed or significantly dropped in ranking. We know a lot of people who are struggling today as their websites dropped from the top of SERP to the very bottom of it. Their income was swiped overnight.
So, what is that magic ‘Panda’ word means for us. As we all know, Google is really trying to make search results cleaner and more useful for people who use their search engine. We do not really like this monopoly of Google and hoping that other search engines will come into play soon. But this is a different story. Let’s get back to Google Panda algorithm. The purpose of it is to ..read more
As the search engines crawl through the web, we have these links that are like streets to these search engines. Search engines analyze the popularity of a page or site through the number of links connected to them. Although trusted sites tend to link to other trusted sites, spammy sites rarely get links from trusted sites. If you want your site or page links to matter to the search engines then you will have to make your site important and famous.
There are tons and tons of websites that offer their visitors the chance to create links through comments on blogs, user profiles, signing in to these sites etc. Although the links created by these websites do not have very high value they do have the capacity to make quite an impact. Not to forget though that the automated method of link creation and the links created are very likely spams ..read more
