WHICH IS THE BEST WAY TO EARN MONEY ONLINE ?
WELL , I HAVE SEEN SEVERAL SITES PAYING U A FEW CENTS FOR CLICKING ON ADS AND SOME OF THEM PAY U MORE IF U WRITE REVIEWS , MANY MORE SITES CLAIMING TO BE BETTER THAN ADSENSE .
ONCE I HAD JOINED IN A SITE CLAIMING TO GIVE 5$ FOR EVERY REVIEW I WRITE . ONCE I SIGNED UP . I GOT 3 SITES FOR REVIEWING AND INSTANTLY GOT 15$ !
MY JOY KNEW NO BOUNDS WHEN I GOT 15 $ IN 3 MINUTES . I STARTED DOING MIND-CALCULATIONS === " THAT MEANS 3 SITES TO REVIEW EVERYDAY ---- SO 15 $ EVERYDAY AND 450 $ PER MONTH ! OH MY GOD !!! " .SUCH WAS MY THOUGHTS ONCE I GOT THOSE 15 $ .
BUT ALAS . MY JOY DID NOT LAST LONG . THE NEXT 3 MONTHS I DID NOT GET A SINGLE SITE TO REVIEW . TERRIBLE !
THE SAME IS THE CASE FOR SITES OFFERING MONEY WHEN U CLICK ON THE ADS .THEY DO PAY U WHEN U REACH THE "MINIMUM PAYOUT " --- BUT THE PROBLEM IS THAT IT TAKES YEARS TO REACH THAT .
THERE R OTHER SITES THAT SAY ------ " WORK FROM HOME .1 HOUR EVERYDAY WILL GIVE U 150$ PER MONTH " . THOSE SITES CLAIM THAT U WILL PAID IF U READ THE E-MAILS THEY SEND U . I HAVE NEVER TRIED IT AND CANNOT SAY IF ITS TRUE OF FRAUDULENT .
ANYWAY , SO THIS IS MY OPINION :::
SO WHICH IS THE BEST WAY TO EARN MONEY ONLINE ?
THE ANSWER IS ::::: " GOOGLE ADSENSE " !
WHY IS "ADSENSE " THE BEST ?
1. ITS BCOZ U R SURE TO GET PAID ONCE U REACH THE MINIMUM PAYOUT . THIS IS DEFINITELY NOT A SITE CLAIMING ATTRACTIVE OFFERS BUT ITS A TRUSTED COMPANY RUN BY ' BRIN AND PAGE' HAVING ABOUT 100000 SERVERS [ DONT KNOW THE EXACT FIGURES ].
2.NORMALLY U EARN ABOUT .01$ [ MAXIMUM ] WHEN U CLICK ON AN AD .BUT THIS IS NOT THE CASE WITH ADSENSE --- IAM VERY SURE ABOUT IT AS IAM PERSONALLY USING ADSENSE NOW [ AS U CAN SEE IN THIS BLOG ]. IF UR CONTENT IS GOOD AND ORIGINAL , U R SURE TO GET MORE FROM GOOGLE .THIS IS WHAT U HAVE TO DO TO EARN VIA ADSENSE :::: JUST CREATE A NICE BLOG OF ANY NICHE THAT INTERESTS U - GET ADSENSE - PROMOTE UR BLOG -- AND THERE U GO EARNING IN DOLLARS .
3 . ONCE U GET A DECENT PAGE RANK FROM GOOGLE U R SURE TO GET MORE TRAFFIC FROM GOOGLE AND HENCE INCREASES UR EARNINGS . THERE R LOTS MORE BLOG DIRECTORIES U CAN SUBMIT TO , TO GET TRAFFIC TO UR BLOG .
4. WHAT MORE ------- CREATE SOME 4 BLOGS WITH UR ACCOUNT . SUPPOSE U GET 1$ FROM EACH BLOG EVERYDAY --- THAT MEANS 120$ DOLLARS PER MONTH . AND YES ! THE CONTENT HAS TO BE GOOD TO BRING TRAFFIC AND INCREASE UR CTR .
JUST REMEMBER THIS --------- PATIENCE IS NOT SWEET TO ANYBODY BUT ITS RESULTS R DEFINITELY SWEET .
I HAVE SEEN SEVERAL BLOGGERS CREATING SOME 50 POSTS , APPLYING FOR ADSENSE -- AND ONCE THEY DO NOT GET ENOUGH MONEY EVERYDAY - THEY STOP UPDATING THE BLOG -- AND FINALLY DELETING IT OUT OF FRUSTRATION . BE PATIENT , GUYS . ITS VERY IMPORTANT IN LIFE . FOR EXAMPLE , HAVE A LOOK AT MY BLOG : http://tamilactresswallpapers.blogspot.com/
I DID NOT GET TOO MANY VISITORS FOR THE FIRST MONTH BUT AM NOW GETTING DECENT AMOUNT OF THEM --- 10000 VISITORS THIS MONTH . IT WAS POSSIBLE BCOZ I WAS PATIENT --- I VISITED MORE BLOGS THAT HAD THE SAME NICHE AS MINE AND ANALYZED HOW THEY GET THE TRAFFIC ---- IAM STILL DOING IT AND THE RESULT ------- VISITORS R STILL INCREASING !

Since the release of SEO Studio back in September 2005, the customers indicated they wanted more features and so...TrendMetrix gave them more. With the recent release of the Links Plus+ Professional Edition this now puts the software in a league of it's own. Hence, this brings me to some of the questions I have been asked over the past few months and wanted to share them with my readers.
I have been asked by many people, "why should I reciprocal link"...
I always begin by telling them they should reciprocal link not only because it will get you a higher ranking in search engines, but it also gets you free traffic to your site. I can tell you from past experiences, it took days to find reciprocal link partners with high quality sites and sites with content pertaining to my business. Let me tell you I could not wait to use the new Links Plus+ tool, it turned days of searching for link partners into minutes, and after all I am being paid by the hour.
Now I have one tool that does it all, this tool allows you to search for link partners with your keywords or competitor's links found in all the major Search Engines. Analyze Anchor text, META tags, and Title tags for specific keywords on link pages. Retrieve the Google Page Rank, Alexa Page Rank, and Yahoo! Directory information, and DMOZ information for your potential link partners. Manage link partners, and conduct email campaigns with customizable templates. Create link directory pages for your own website. Check for broken links or removed links from your link partners, this and more at my fingertips.
Set a side the reciprocal links for a moment if you will, it's not just about links...
I always try to instill on to others, CONTENT, remember people, Google likes content. Which brings me to one of the most frequently asked questions I am about to delve into, what constitutes quality content. It can be confusing as to which kind of content Google is looking for. I admit, I once thought content was content, but I quickly learned I was very wrong, not all content is created equal. Engrave in your mind the phrase "keyword rich text".
Understanding and utilizing keyword based comparisons against competing sites as well as the important keyword statistics such as occurrence, density, and prominence enabled me to construct a well written "keyword rich text" web site favorable to all search engines. Now I am no sales person, but when you find a good product that works for you, then go for it as I did using SEO Studio and to this day we rank quite high on several of our keywords.
TrendMetrix has added to their web site the new "Live Support" feature...
We all know how frustrating it can be when you have a question whether it is a technical question or a simple inquiry, we all want answers fast. Now you have it with a click of the mouse, their technical staff is ready, willing and able to assist you within seconds of your request and simple to use. They believe it is an important call-to-duty to serve the needs of their customers and provide them with a comfort level when needed.
What's Next...

Slated for release in the Fall of 2004 will be some powerful new features such as, the introduction of the new SEO Studio scheduler to execute unattended submission, ranking, and Top 10 Spy reports. Extensive off page factor analysis influencing ranking including the Google allinanchor, allintitle and allintext commands. History based reporting of search engine ranking reports with enhanced position analysis including competing pages. A new addition to the Links Plus+ tool will be theme based link page creation with structured category breakdown based on user preference.

A number of people make use of web directories to find out the related links for their websites. This makes the job of online searching quite easy for them. Each and every link directory has categories and sub categories links.
How to go about installing a link directory?
You need to meet certain requirements for installing a link directory.
First of all you have to categorize your link directory. Your computer should have the definite script to run your link directory on a web server. The PHP scripting language is the best one to run your script on the Windows operating system. Other scripts like CGI are also used extensively for installing a link directory. The script can be purchased from any software store. The right script will make your installation easier. Some PHP scripts in the market are very powerful. They allow you to add as many categories in the link directory as possible. For installing such a link directory you must have a Linux operating system.
Also there are some scripts in the market that allow you to install the link directory on any of the operating system like Windows, UNIX and Linux. For installing any link directory, you should have a free space on your computer system. You may require 250 MB or more free space to install link directory software. Also you need to have a particular type of IP address for installation. If you do not have the right IP address, the Domain Name Server registrations may be lost and may result in the failure of the installation process.
Make one thing absolutely sure that the installation of your directory may be interrupted if the network is not properly connected. If you receive the connection errors such as “the link directory installation failed” or “error in installation”, check the network cable connection.
The domain name is the most important part of your link directory. Your link directory is installed with a particular domain name. Remember that the domain name should not be single. Create a domain name that suggests that the directory is a part of your organization. If your website domain name is “xyz.com”, the domain name of your directory must be some what like “ab.xyz.com”.

Sound good? I thought you'd like it. Here are the software specs:
Cost
Web CEO comes in a few flavours, each at a different price point:
But wait! That's not all!
Web CEO charges an ongoing fee for optional components of the software. This is and will continue to be the secret (aside from the brilliant software!) to their success.
Now, many of us balk at ongoing fees like this. But, be realistic: the provision of the analysis and monitoring services, and keeping the knowledge fresh, takes time, money and significant resources. The guys at Web CEO aren't about to compromise the success of the sites that use their product by scrimping to save the customer a few cents here and there.
You want the best quality software with ongoing quality service? Of course there needs to be an ongoing fee. To ask for anything less would compromise the quality of the ongoing service, and very quickly diminish the value of the software to customers like you and I.
It's a great strategy that's of great benefit to the customer.
KEYWORD COUNTRY ---------- ANOTHER USEFUL TOOL !
Using KeywordCountry for keyword research just like searching on Google. Yes, you get the relevant keyword results right away with all the details that you need to be successful with AdSense! Just imagine Google suggesting keywords for your website! Well, this is what you will feel while searching keywords via Keyword Country.
This is not all! I strongly feel that Keyword Country seems to have discovered a way through which it can suggest keywords that attract traffic, get more clicks, and fetch you more EPC.
KeywordCountry positions itself as a “Keyword Search Engine.” And quite obviously, I was more than curious to test whether or not the product stands up to what it commits. Here is what I found:
In fact, I have been keeping an eye on Keyword Country for quite some time now. I must say when Keyword Country started off, it was not so striking. But, their latest version seems to have done the trick!
Just type-in a keyword in KeywordCountry, and you have millions of relevant keywords within a few seconds, each with key details like:
- Max CPC
- Number of Advertisers
- Number of Clicks per month
- Estimated EPC
- Number of competitors
- KEI Analysis
- R/S Ratio
- Number of Searches (according to Overture)
- Traffic on google (estimated) …and much more!
KeywordCountry is really user friendly. In fact, using it is as easy as walking down a smooth lane in the bright sunshine with both the eyes wide open. More importantly, what impressed me a lot is the way Keyword Country produces thousands of high paying keywords and niche keywords in the blink of an eye.
Keyword Country allows you to search for keywords in 3 different ways via Basic Search, advanced search, and Price Range Search. At the outset, I thought they are shuffling the same keywords in the three different searches. But no! The results are actually search specific, and enable you to choose the best keywords that suit your requirements. There is no cheating in their search results.
I was planning for an auto loan, so I tried the keyword – “loan,” I just typed the keyword in BASIC Search and I got 21,086 relevant keywords within a few seconds, each with key details like Max CPC, Number of Advertisers, Number of Clicks per month, Estimated EPC, Number of competitors, KEI Analysis, R/S Ratio, Number of Searches (according to Overture), and Traffic on Google.
I was really impressed by the relevancy of the keywords that I found. The results are so relevant that you can actually export the list and use it right away in your website without even filtering out any record. However, the results become a bit irrelevant as you dig deep into the list (just like in a search engine). But, I must say that the results seem to have been sorted by humans, and not by s/w. It is more like stealing the keyword research from a professional SEO.
Not just this, I had another option of choosing high paying keywords from 206 different sub-categories for the search term - Loan. I picked - Auto loan, and KeywordCountry listed 1,257 keywords for the sub-category - Auto loan.
Price Range Searching is another remarkable feature Keyword country boasts. This search enables you to search for the keywords within a specific price range. One of the key advantages of this kind of a search is that it brings forth lots of low priced, hidden keywords that are really profitable. Besides, you can brainstorm new ideas for AdSense as well.
Above all things, it is the Advanced searching option that makes Keyword Country a bit special. I think these guys have really thought hard! This time they have come up with a tool that allows you to do in-depth research for each keyword. Offering a variety of searching options just like Wild Cards of Google, Advanced Searching can sort results on the basis of Max CPC, Average CPC, Searches, Sponsors, or anything else you like.
After going through Keyword Country videos, Advanced Search starts making a lot of sense and you really get the hang of the powers of KC’s Advanced Search tool.
Sort the results by “Rating,” and KC will give you only profitable keywords. Sort the results by “Clicks per month,” and you will get the keywords that attract the most clicks for Google. Just integrate these keywords in your website, and you will increase the chances of getting more CTR. Furthermore, there are many more types of keywords that you can find out with Keyword Country. Just run through the videos for complete details.
Here are links to all the videos:
- Finding high paying keywords
- Finding Traffic attracting keywords
- Finding High CTR keywords
- Choosing better anchor text
- User manual of KC
Besides, you can customize your search the way you want. Whether you type in a search query, or you search the keywords without typing in a search query – Keyword Country generates hordes of keywords spanning different industries. I won’t hesitate to say that I found such a tool after a long… long time! Well Done!
One of the most striking features of this software is “Blank Search.” Now, this is one feature that I have not seen anywhere else. Blank Search allows you to reach the most searched keywords on planet earth, most clicked keywords that exist, most high paying keywords, and most low competition high value keywords. Just leave the keyword field blank in Advanced Search, and Keyword Country will give you such amazing lists. This feature makes Keyword Country really outstanding. I can’t believe they are selling its access so cheap!
They claim to be a “Keyword Search Engine.” I believe they have already achieved what they claim. And they are still making it better and better day by day. I am sure they can make their product even more special.
Keyword Country’s the Good and the Bad

MORE ABOUT ' BACK-LINKS'
How to Get Useful Backlinks ::::
What do you and spammers have in common? You both want BACK-LINKS - that's what. The difference between you and them is that you play by the rules and they don't. The other difference is that they probably have more backlinks than you and this is because they, more than you, understand the importance of backlinks. If you knew you'd probably be spamming too.
Backlinks drive the Google machine - the search engine. Backlinks create PR and PR (pagerank) determines (among other factors) the position of pages listed in Google's index. The search engine results pages (SERP's) provide a means to make money online. Top ranking on any highly searched term can mean a lot of free traffic to your site. Traffic can be converted to money - the more traffic the more money made. Where there is money to be made there is incentive to do whatever it takes to get it. People kill for money so it's hardly surprising that good honest people will cheat to get their hands on it.
With the advent of Adsense Google made available a means for people the world over to make money online - is there an easier way to make money online? Nope.
Traffic and Adsense may not be the most lucrative way to earn a living on the internet but it is the easiest and it can be profitable.
I hate talking about Backlinks. Every successful marketer online has a system for obtaining backlinks - they may be different systems - but one thing they all have in common is that they don't like talking about backlinks. There are two reasons for this;
This is the piece of the money making puzzle you need most of all in order to succeed and telling others how you do it may endanger your own livelihood. As much as I like helping people I don't want to do it at my own expense. Human nature I think. If everyone does what I do it may not work anymore.
The other reason is that the wrong eyes may see the post and report your activities to the wrong people (G) and poof - it's all gone.
When you make a good buck online you don't want it all wiped out in an instant - think of the irony, you were trying to help others and end up with nothing.
In that light I am not going to tell you what I do - I'm going to tell you what my friend "Kodiak" does.
First a quick primer about backlinks.
There are crappy backlinks, better backlinks and then there are perfect backlinks.
(Note; Even crappy backlinks are better than no backlinks - at worst Google ignores them and at best you get a little juice.)
You can rate a backlink as follows;
Can everyone get the same link? - think do-follow - think crappy.
Is the link coming from a high PR site but not relevant to your site - better but not great.
Is the link coming from a relevant site with low PR - better still even kinda great but not really great.
Is the link coming from a relevant High PR site contained in the content of an article relevant to the page on your site that it is linked to - OK this is better than great - this is the perfect backlink.
My friend Vic on Blogger Unleashed has mentioned a fondness for ranking well for the term (keyword) "make money online". Over the last few posts I have included a few links to Vic's blog. In one link I used the term "make money online", in another link I used the term "making money online" and today I will use the term "How to make money online with Adsense" and I am linking to his post dealing with Adsense - not his home page which isn't relevant to Adsense. If you haven't caught on I am giving Vic the perfect links for his site. I have a PR5. I have huge keyword authority for all the make money online terms and when a site like mine votes for another site using the terms I have authority for I pass on a great deal of link juice.
While I am at it I want to send a link out to RT on "Untwisted Vortex" who has been busy trying out a few experiments with certain keywords like How to Get Screaming Traffic. He has a great sense of humor and I would love to give him a hand in the serp rankings - maybe I just did.
When I started this blog I didn't have a friend with a high PR relevant site to help me so I had to do it the hard way. Before I begin, you can all help each other out immensly by using appropriate anchor text when you link to each other. Stop using the person's name in the link - stop using the blog name - start using the keyword that best describes the post you are linking to. Don't just link to their homepage - give them links to their inner pages, this is known as deep linking. This will get all of their pages PR - not just the home page. It would help of course if every blogger had a little blurb on their page somewhere that listed the top 5 terms they would like to be ranked for as some sites are just hard to figure out. Hmmm maybe we can start something like that...
PR vs Keyword Authority
Having high pagerank doesn't mean you have a lot of keyword authority. This confuses a lot of people.
If 5 PR8 sites link to your blog about "Dogs" then you will likely gain a PR6 from these links. This doesn't mean you have keyword authority for "Dogs". If the sites linked to you using your name for instance and not the term "dogs" then you will have a PR6 blog with keyword authority for your name. If they linked to you using the term "Dogs" then you will have authority for Dogs. This is assuming that the PR8 sites are dog related and have authority for the term. If they aren't related then you still don't have authority for the term. A lot of Bloggers ask me why they aren't ranking well for their keywords even though they have a PR3 or PR4 blog. This is why - you have PR but no authority for any relevant terms to your site.
This is sooooooooooooooooo important when collecting backlinks.
Most people waste so much time getting tons of backlinks from do-follow, articles, forum signatures etc and don't use their keywords in the anchor text. You use your name or blog name in 90% of the links - don't you - fess up. Congrats. You have a ton of authority for your name and none for your niche keywords. A lot of work for nothing friends.
Just to muddy the waters even more let me mention why do-follow is crap. Even if you stick a comment on a do-follow blog that has high PR and the blog and post is directly related to you and you have proper anchor text the link is just one of 50 or 100 links being handed out - it is diluted so bad as to be mostly worthless. For the mathematically endowed you can Google "pagerank" and read how the formula works. For those of you who are mathematically challenged like me I will put it in layman's terms. The less links a site gives out the more juice each link contains. The more links a site gives out the less juice each link contains. (This is a contentious issue but my own findings seem to bare this out.) I have reduced the number of site wide links on my blog in order to increase my juice. I removed my blogroll for this reason and not because I don't want to link to other sites. I think I can provide better juice to my friends by linking to them in my posts every so often rather than using a static link in the sidebar. Rather than just using their blog name I can use relevant anchor text instead. (I'm not suggesting you drop your blogrolls too but there are better ways to link to your friends.)
Ideally you want a link from a relevant high PR site that doesn't give out many links. Better yet you want the link contained in a relevant article using keyword relevant anchor text. Best of all you want the link pointing to a relevant page on your site and this doesn't always mean the homepage. Think of my link to Vic above.
I have probably confused you with all this but I had too in order to explain how my "friend" Kodiak goes about collecting links.
When he started out he used articles. He wrote a whole bunch under different names and included proper anchor text pointing back to his site. An article dealing with dog collars would have the link pointing to his page on dog collars - not his homepage which deals with dogs in general. He would post on a topic and then spin the article so that it was sufficiently different and then submit it to article submission sites. He did this for every page on his blog. Every article had a different keyword. Every page in his blog focused on a different keyword but all related to his main keyword. This was slow going but eventually enough of his articles got posted on other sites and a few backlinks trickled in. Few though they were at least they came from relevant sites and they contained keyword rich anchor text. None of the sites had good PR. (Note: High PR sites don't post articles from article directories)
Nevertheless he gained a PR2 for his efforts which really wasn't very good. It wasn't very good because he had a site that was a PR3 and it didn't have a single backlink to it. The PR3 site was not monetized, had 118 pages and was three years old. It didn't have any outgoing links on it either. This told Kodiak something important. You will get a PR3 just for having enough content and /or it's age and/or whether or not it's monetized and/or whether it links out. In time he came to realize that monetization had an effect on a site's serp ranking more than it had an effect on it's PR. Two sites with the same PR and keyword authority will be ranked in accordance with monetization - the un-monetized will rank higher in most instances.
In time he also learned that PR wasn't effected by how many links your site had on it. It did have an effect on the strength of the juice you possessed though. As he built up more and more sites he experimented. He used his PR3 sites to send link juice to new sites. One PR3 site gave out tons of links to several sites. The other PR3 site gave out only a handful of links. The sites linked to from the second PR3 site had an instant jump in the serp pages for their keywords. The sites linked to by the first PR3 site didn't move much at all.
In the end Kodiak came to realize that age and content were enough to get a PR3 on their own - no backlinks needed.
Having wasted a great deal of time getting a lousy PR2 he wondered just how many crappy links it would take to get a high PR which made him wonder just how many good links it would take to get a high PR. To find out he went out and bought them.
Yup.
There are any number of sites set up to facilitate the purchase of pagerank - Google it as I won't be linking to any of them here. There is certainly a well known forum with the initials DP. Much later it became a joke when bloggers agreed to write "advertising reviews" on their high PR blogs for money. The bloggers thought they were getting paid for advertising and never questioned why they weren't allowed to put a no-follow on the links. Spammers just about had a coronary as this was just too easy. Not only could you get a high PR relevant site to use your link but you could have the proper anchor text used as well. In the end the spam sites thrived and the bloggers lost all their pagerank. The irony is that they blamed Google for their loss and not the site that conned them all into selling their PR. BTW the spam sites lost their PR too when the sites linking to them lost theirs - they didn't lose their keyword authority though and that was what they were after in the first place. They still rank well for their keywords without any PR. I digress...
It turns out that you can get a PR5 with relatively few backlinks. In fact a handful of PR6 - PR8 links will do it. The trouble is that a new blog that suddenly develops several high PR links right out of the gate is a bit suspicious looking and a smart operator will gather up lots of crappy links first and then add the good ones slowly one at a time.
Kodiak has approached other site owners and offered money for an optimized link to his sites. In some niches this is easy as the other owners haven't a clue and think he is advertising. Some niches are on the ball and won't sell you a link for the same keywords they are chasing and why would they. In these cases he sought out related sites who would give him a link. His dog site got high PR links from "Pet" sites and "dog grooming" sites and "dog food" sites and you get the picture. They weren't perfect links but they were good enough to get him a PR5 pretty damn quick. His keyword authority didn't rise as fast as his PR but it still moved him up the serps. Eventually to the top spot in a very competitive niche and he did it with less than 30 really good links. It cost him about $2000 but he makes that back on a good day now.
Who should consider doing this?
Only, and I repeat, only those of you who know how to sell and have both a product and a niche with sufficient people searching for what you are selling. If you spend this kind of money just to get your personal blog to the top of the serps for a lousy niche then you will be sorry. I will talk about finding niches in an upcoming post.
Option 2
Join a blog network. There are several networks available and again I won't be linking to them in this article but you might find a link if you follow the link in the first paragraph. Long time readers might recognize one of these networks that Kodiak used to get his "make money online" blog a PR5 and huge keyword authority for most of the make money keywords. The network in questioned got hammered in the last pagerank update and Kodiak recommended people not join until new sites were added with high PR. As it happens 20 fresh PR4 and a few PR5 sites were just added and it might be worth looking at now.
What is a blog network? It's a group of blogs that are co-authored by everyone who joins. The network mentioned above has 148 blogs that you can post your own articles on complete with anchor text pointing back to your sites. Most of the blogs were reduced to PR0 - PR2 after the last update but are still effective at passing some juice because you are getting optimized links. Some of the blogs are better than others since some are niche related and others are not - general blogs with posts about everything.
Being smart.
Always look natural. If you were to join such a network you will be tempted to post a bunch of links on the high PR sites and ignore the rest. Is this how a blog would naturally gain links? Nope. A normal site will have lots of low PR links built up over time with a smattering of high PR sites - use the PR 0,1 and 2 sites more than the high PR sites.
Will a natural blog have all it's backlinks pointing just to it's home page and all using the exact same anchor text? Nope. If you were to collect links this way make sure to link to all the pages of your blog and use lots of different long tail keywords as anchor text - variety. This will help you rank for lots of terms instead of just your main term. This will get your secondary pages ranking as well as your home page which means a lot more traffic - a LOT more.
Will a natural blog suddenly get 30 links in one day - especially a new blog. Nope. Take your time - a couple of low PR sites a day - one link to the home page - one to the secondary page. Once or twice a week you use a high PR link - sometimes to the homepage sometimes to a secondary page. Patience - you will see your blog move up the serps as your "real" PR and keyword authority increases - you will know that it is working so don't get greedy - slow and easy.
Will a natural blog get 5 links from one post on another blog? Nope. Each time you use a network blog just use one link in your post. One post - one keyword.
One last thing - don't use duplicate content on the network. Write a real post (it can be short) and make sure it is relevant to the blog you are linking to - this includes using your keywords in the post title and other relevant long tails in the content. You want the link pointing at your real blog to come from a relevant post. PLR articles are fine but spin them first. (Change them around - a little re-writing to make them unique)
Don't put all your eggs in one basket folks. If you join a network use it for a few sites only. If Google slams them (the network sites) you don't want all your money sites affected.
Don't just gather links from the networks. Use do-follow and articles and all the other sites I have talked about previously (Squidoo, Yahoo Answers etc.) to collect links. These may not get you a high pagerank but they are natural links that will lend credibility to your site. You can also use automated trackback and social bookmarking software but remember these are not as effective at getting high PR but they do add up over time. Thousands and thousands of low PR links will give you some PR eventually.
Some Common Sense
I have made a point with this blog to show my readers how anyone can take a "free" blog and make money online without spending a dime. I have not lied - there are plenty of methods to obtain backlinks without buying them. I have talked about these methods on numerous occasions on this blog and they all work. The downside is they are labor intensive and they take a long time to create the results you are looking for. The upside is that they are completely legit and you will never have to fear the mighty G.
I have strayed from the "free" systems in this post for a reason. If you are really serious about making a living online then you need to see the big picture. If you are going to make money you will have to dominate a niche that allows you to make a good living and with few exceptions the money niches are dominated by professionals. While you are busy doing everything the right way they are busy doing things the business way. The real competition online doesn't bugger around with things like backlinks - they cut to the chase. They buy them. I have explained a few of the ways they do this and I will tell you the most effective way of all but the most expensive. I rank number 1 in my most profitable niche, I also rank number 2 and number 3 and now number 4 as well. How? I bought the 3 sites below me. I probably get 90% of all the traffic looking for my keywords and I wouldn't have spent the money if it wasn't worth it.
Am I telling you to do this. No. I am telling you this as a reality check. If you are just dabbling then use common sense - save your money and use legit methods until you find something that does earn you money. As you gain experience then look at the big picture and decide how far you want to go with your online business. If you are making a few hundred a month in position 12 on the serp's then it might be worth it to spend a hundred bucks a month to join a network and get yourself to the top position. If you are making a few thousand a month in 12th spot then it might make sense to spend a few thousand dollars buying high PR links from others. If you are making ten thousand dollars a month in 12th spot then it might make sense to buy out your competitors. Don't get ahead of yourself.
This post may not be of much use to those of you who are just starting out but it is worth knowing how things get done in the broad spectrum of things.
One thing you can all look at doing is buying expired domains that have existing PR.
Buying Domains can be done fairly cheaply and has some immediate benefits. Aged domains aren't usually thrown in the sandbox by Google. (I was going to talk about this today but will save it for next time - the sandbox issue that is.) You can start out with good PR and spend your time gathering keyword authority instead of both. A thousand PR0 links with your keywords in the anchor text will give you authority - think social bookmarking. You might want to use an auto program for this.
What do you and spammers have in common? You both want BACK-LINKS - that's what. The difference between you and them is that you play by the rules and they don't. The other difference is that they probably have more backlinks than you and this is because they, more than you, understand the importance of backlinks. If you knew you'd probably be spamming too.
Backlinks drive the Google machine - the search engine. Backlinks create PR and PR (pagerank) determines (among other factors) the position of pages listed in Google's index. The search engine results pages (SERP's) provide a means to make money online. Top ranking on any highly searched term can mean a lot of free traffic to your site. Traffic can be converted to money - the more traffic the more money made. Where there is money to be made there is incentive to do whatever it takes to get it. People kill for money so it's hardly surprising that good honest people will cheat to get their hands on it.
With the advent of Adsense Google made available a means for people the world over to make money online - is there an easier way to make money online? Nope.
Traffic and Adsense may not be the most lucrative way to earn a living on the internet but it is the easiest and it can be profitable.
I hate talking about Backlinks. Every successful marketer online has a system for obtaining backlinks - they may be different systems - but one thing they all have in common is that they don't like talking about backlinks. There are two reasons for this;
This is the piece of the money making puzzle you need most of all in order to succeed and telling others how you do it may endanger your own livelihood. As much as I like helping people I don't want to do it at my own expense. Human nature I think. If everyone does what I do it may not work anymore.
The other reason is that the wrong eyes may see the post and report your activities to the wrong people (G) and poof - it's all gone.
When you make a good buck online you don't want it all wiped out in an instant - think of the irony, you were trying to help others and end up with nothing.
In that light I am not going to tell you what I do - I'm going to tell you what my friend "Kodiak" does.
First a quick primer about backlinks.
There are crappy backlinks, better backlinks and then there are perfect backlinks.
(Note; Even crappy backlinks are better than no backlinks - at worst Google ignores them and at best you get a little juice.)
You can rate a backlink as follows;
Can everyone get the same link? - think do-follow - think crappy.
Is the link coming from a high PR site but not relevant to your site - better but not great.
Is the link coming from a relevant site with low PR - better still even kinda great but not really great.
Is the link coming from a relevant High PR site contained in the content of an article relevant to the page on your site that it is linked to - OK this is better than great - this is the perfect backlink.
My friend Vic on Blogger Unleashed has mentioned a fondness for ranking well for the term (keyword) "make money online". Over the last few posts I have included a few links to Vic's blog. In one link I used the term "make money online", in another link I used the term "making money online" and today I will use the term "How to make money online with Adsense" and I am linking to his post dealing with Adsense - not his home page which isn't relevant to Adsense. If you haven't caught on I am giving Vic the perfect links for his site. I have a PR5. I have huge keyword authority for all the make money online terms and when a site like mine votes for another site using the terms I have authority for I pass on a great deal of link juice.
While I am at it I want to send a link out to RT on "Untwisted Vortex" who has been busy trying out a few experiments with certain keywords like How to Get Screaming Traffic. He has a great sense of humor and I would love to give him a hand in the serp rankings - maybe I just did.
When I started this blog I didn't have a friend with a high PR relevant site to help me so I had to do it the hard way. Before I begin, you can all help each other out immensly by using appropriate anchor text when you link to each other. Stop using the person's name in the link - stop using the blog name - start using the keyword that best describes the post you are linking to. Don't just link to their homepage - give them links to their inner pages, this is known as deep linking. This will get all of their pages PR - not just the home page. It would help of course if every blogger had a little blurb on their page somewhere that listed the top 5 terms they would like to be ranked for as some sites are just hard to figure out. Hmmm maybe we can start something like that...
PR vs Keyword Authority
Having high pagerank doesn't mean you have a lot of keyword authority. This confuses a lot of people.
If 5 PR8 sites link to your blog about "Dogs" then you will likely gain a PR6 from these links. This doesn't mean you have keyword authority for "Dogs". If the sites linked to you using your name for instance and not the term "dogs" then you will have a PR6 blog with keyword authority for your name. If they linked to you using the term "Dogs" then you will have authority for Dogs. This is assuming that the PR8 sites are dog related and have authority for the term. If they aren't related then you still don't have authority for the term. A lot of Bloggers ask me why they aren't ranking well for their keywords even though they have a PR3 or PR4 blog. This is why - you have PR but no authority for any relevant terms to your site.
This is sooooooooooooooooo important when collecting backlinks.
Most people waste so much time getting tons of backlinks from do-follow, articles, forum signatures etc and don't use their keywords in the anchor text. You use your name or blog name in 90% of the links - don't you - fess up. Congrats. You have a ton of authority for your name and none for your niche keywords. A lot of work for nothing friends.
Just to muddy the waters even more let me mention why do-follow is crap. Even if you stick a comment on a do-follow blog that has high PR and the blog and post is directly related to you and you have proper anchor text the link is just one of 50 or 100 links being handed out - it is diluted so bad as to be mostly worthless. For the mathematically endowed you can Google "pagerank" and read how the formula works. For those of you who are mathematically challenged like me I will put it in layman's terms. The less links a site gives out the more juice each link contains. The more links a site gives out the less juice each link contains. (This is a contentious issue but my own findings seem to bare this out.) I have reduced the number of site wide links on my blog in order to increase my juice. I removed my blogroll for this reason and not because I don't want to link to other sites. I think I can provide better juice to my friends by linking to them in my posts every so often rather than using a static link in the sidebar. Rather than just using their blog name I can use relevant anchor text instead. (I'm not suggesting you drop your blogrolls too but there are better ways to link to your friends.)
Ideally you want a link from a relevant high PR site that doesn't give out many links. Better yet you want the link contained in a relevant article using keyword relevant anchor text. Best of all you want the link pointing to a relevant page on your site and this doesn't always mean the homepage. Think of my link to Vic above.
I have probably confused you with all this but I had too in order to explain how my "friend" Kodiak goes about collecting links.
When he started out he used articles. He wrote a whole bunch under different names and included proper anchor text pointing back to his site. An article dealing with dog collars would have the link pointing to his page on dog collars - not his homepage which deals with dogs in general. He would post on a topic and then spin the article so that it was sufficiently different and then submit it to article submission sites. He did this for every page on his blog. Every article had a different keyword. Every page in his blog focused on a different keyword but all related to his main keyword. This was slow going but eventually enough of his articles got posted on other sites and a few backlinks trickled in. Few though they were at least they came from relevant sites and they contained keyword rich anchor text. None of the sites had good PR. (Note: High PR sites don't post articles from article directories)
Nevertheless he gained a PR2 for his efforts which really wasn't very good. It wasn't very good because he had a site that was a PR3 and it didn't have a single backlink to it. The PR3 site was not monetized, had 118 pages and was three years old. It didn't have any outgoing links on it either. This told Kodiak something important. You will get a PR3 just for having enough content and /or it's age and/or whether or not it's monetized and/or whether it links out. In time he came to realize that monetization had an effect on a site's serp ranking more than it had an effect on it's PR. Two sites with the same PR and keyword authority will be ranked in accordance with monetization - the un-monetized will rank higher in most instances.
In time he also learned that PR wasn't effected by how many links your site had on it. It did have an effect on the strength of the juice you possessed though. As he built up more and more sites he experimented. He used his PR3 sites to send link juice to new sites. One PR3 site gave out tons of links to several sites. The other PR3 site gave out only a handful of links. The sites linked to from the second PR3 site had an instant jump in the serp pages for their keywords. The sites linked to by the first PR3 site didn't move much at all.
In the end Kodiak came to realize that age and content were enough to get a PR3 on their own - no backlinks needed.
Having wasted a great deal of time getting a lousy PR2 he wondered just how many crappy links it would take to get a high PR which made him wonder just how many good links it would take to get a high PR. To find out he went out and bought them.
Yup.
There are any number of sites set up to facilitate the purchase of pagerank - Google it as I won't be linking to any of them here. There is certainly a well known forum with the initials DP. Much later it became a joke when bloggers agreed to write "advertising reviews" on their high PR blogs for money. The bloggers thought they were getting paid for advertising and never questioned why they weren't allowed to put a no-follow on the links. Spammers just about had a coronary as this was just too easy. Not only could you get a high PR relevant site to use your link but you could have the proper anchor text used as well. In the end the spam sites thrived and the bloggers lost all their pagerank. The irony is that they blamed Google for their loss and not the site that conned them all into selling their PR. BTW the spam sites lost their PR too when the sites linking to them lost theirs - they didn't lose their keyword authority though and that was what they were after in the first place. They still rank well for their keywords without any PR. I digress...
It turns out that you can get a PR5 with relatively few backlinks. In fact a handful of PR6 - PR8 links will do it. The trouble is that a new blog that suddenly develops several high PR links right out of the gate is a bit suspicious looking and a smart operator will gather up lots of crappy links first and then add the good ones slowly one at a time.
Kodiak has approached other site owners and offered money for an optimized link to his sites. In some niches this is easy as the other owners haven't a clue and think he is advertising. Some niches are on the ball and won't sell you a link for the same keywords they are chasing and why would they. In these cases he sought out related sites who would give him a link. His dog site got high PR links from "Pet" sites and "dog grooming" sites and "dog food" sites and you get the picture. They weren't perfect links but they were good enough to get him a PR5 pretty damn quick. His keyword authority didn't rise as fast as his PR but it still moved him up the serps. Eventually to the top spot in a very competitive niche and he did it with less than 30 really good links. It cost him about $2000 but he makes that back on a good day now.
Who should consider doing this?
Only, and I repeat, only those of you who know how to sell and have both a product and a niche with sufficient people searching for what you are selling. If you spend this kind of money just to get your personal blog to the top of the serps for a lousy niche then you will be sorry. I will talk about finding niches in an upcoming post.
Option 2
Join a blog network. There are several networks available and again I won't be linking to them in this article but you might find a link if you follow the link in the first paragraph. Long time readers might recognize one of these networks that Kodiak used to get his "make money online" blog a PR5 and huge keyword authority for most of the make money keywords. The network in questioned got hammered in the last pagerank update and Kodiak recommended people not join until new sites were added with high PR. As it happens 20 fresh PR4 and a few PR5 sites were just added and it might be worth looking at now.
What is a blog network? It's a group of blogs that are co-authored by everyone who joins. The network mentioned above has 148 blogs that you can post your own articles on complete with anchor text pointing back to your sites. Most of the blogs were reduced to PR0 - PR2 after the last update but are still effective at passing some juice because you are getting optimized links. Some of the blogs are better than others since some are niche related and others are not - general blogs with posts about everything.
Being smart.
Always look natural. If you were to join such a network you will be tempted to post a bunch of links on the high PR sites and ignore the rest. Is this how a blog would naturally gain links? Nope. A normal site will have lots of low PR links built up over time with a smattering of high PR sites - use the PR 0,1 and 2 sites more than the high PR sites.
Will a natural blog have all it's backlinks pointing just to it's home page and all using the exact same anchor text? Nope. If you were to collect links this way make sure to link to all the pages of your blog and use lots of different long tail keywords as anchor text - variety. This will help you rank for lots of terms instead of just your main term. This will get your secondary pages ranking as well as your home page which means a lot more traffic - a LOT more.
Will a natural blog suddenly get 30 links in one day - especially a new blog. Nope. Take your time - a couple of low PR sites a day - one link to the home page - one to the secondary page. Once or twice a week you use a high PR link - sometimes to the homepage sometimes to a secondary page. Patience - you will see your blog move up the serps as your "real" PR and keyword authority increases - you will know that it is working so don't get greedy - slow and easy.
Will a natural blog get 5 links from one post on another blog? Nope. Each time you use a network blog just use one link in your post. One post - one keyword.
One last thing - don't use duplicate content on the network. Write a real post (it can be short) and make sure it is relevant to the blog you are linking to - this includes using your keywords in the post title and other relevant long tails in the content. You want the link pointing at your real blog to come from a relevant post. PLR articles are fine but spin them first. (Change them around - a little re-writing to make them unique)
Don't put all your eggs in one basket folks. If you join a network use it for a few sites only. If Google slams them (the network sites) you don't want all your money sites affected.
Don't just gather links from the networks. Use do-follow and articles and all the other sites I have talked about previously (Squidoo, Yahoo Answers etc.) to collect links. These may not get you a high pagerank but they are natural links that will lend credibility to your site. You can also use automated trackback and social bookmarking software but remember these are not as effective at getting high PR but they do add up over time. Thousands and thousands of low PR links will give you some PR eventually.
