Review of Build My Rank – The Finale

Here is the final update for the rankings of a particular website which has been detailed to some extent in the previous post here using Build my Rank to gain those rankings. And you can read the second update post here.

Its wise to note that using such a tool as Build my Rank to help you rank for higher -end keyword phrases is not going to “hack it” if you are merely using BMR on its own. You’ll need to mix up the backlinking rather a lot more and should not rely on using one tool alone. But obviously (as these results should testify) you can use BMR to rank for lower competitioned keyword phrases, and it would be a really good tool to use in conjunction to other SEO type tools – providing that:

1. you are happy to create lots of 150+ word text snippets yourself – all of which have to be unique from each other and no spun content can be used, or…

2. you are happy to outsource the creation of such content.
.

It should also be noted that if you do want to outsource this work, then BMR has a perfect set-up for handling it. You merely need to create an account for each writer within the BMR interphase. This way you can assess who had done what every day and payment can be made accordingly – which is a perfect way to outsource writing and get your true money’s worth.

.
So here is the update on the Build my Rank project which I started some 5 weeks ago on the 16th of February.

The list is in the same order as given in the previous posts, so if you want to check the search volumes, just refer to either of the those posts.

Build My Rank Update 3 | Save Money on Build My Rank

Its only been 7 days since my last Build my Rank update and even though I’ve been off touring the north of Scotland for the past few days (what an incredibly beautiful part of the world that is!), I’ve still managed to keep up with my BMR backlinks to the test site. The test began on 16th of February, so is only some 17 days old.

So how are things progressing?

I’ll list here updates on progress from the very first day, rather than progress from the previous update. The link above will provide you all the info you need about rankings on the previous update. Over-all, I’ve been adding around 6 to 7 backlinks per day using BMR, thus you can see the workload here is very small – you can do that within half an hour.

The Latest Google Algorithm Changes and Build My Rank Rankings Update

SEO Image The Latest Google Algorithm Changes and Build My Rank Rankings Update As you probably know, Google have just issued a further algorithm update, and this one has apparently wreaked more havoc – which goes to compound the previous set of algo changes they let loose not long ago.

Therefore, I thought that I would update you on the progress with the rankings on the site I am using BMR to experiment on.

Now, I hear all the time that so – called “thin” sites are hated by Google. At the time of writing, I have around 12 pages of content on this particular site, so that would be included in the category of the typical “thin” site due to its low content value on the whole.

Typically a non-thin site is regarded as being 40 pages of content and above. This is the figure bandied about by the SEO and IM fraternity. Thus, this is one reason why you would sort of expect my site to have been de-bunked from Google search.

Personally I feel that is a ridiculous “rule” if indeed its true. A site with 10 pages could very well be far more valuable to me than a site with 80 pages of content. Its about the quality of the content and not about the quantity that surely matters!

So, has my own site gone some way to dispelling this broad ranging theory?

Build My Rank SEO tool Assessment | Build My Rank Money Off

Sadly, BMR is no longer available for use.

I’m obviously in my writing mode – two blog posts within two days – must be a record for me icon wink Build My Rank SEO tool Assessment | Build My Rank Money Off

Check out at the bottom of this article for a pretty cool deal for wannabe Build My Rank users!

(Now, I best be careful here – if I put in more than 3 affiliate links in this post then I will be de-ranked and de-tested by google our god – but aha! - I don’t rank for anything in google search for this website and instead rely purely on word of mouth – I got you there google!).
.
I’m intent on beating this tool to death if I can, lol! I’ve already discussed the Build My Rank tool at some length, but since the price changes – I believe that a lot of folks have been put off from using it.
.
Thus, because I feel that this particular tool is “the bees knees when it comes to helping to rank web pages in Google, I’m going to bang on its drum once again.
.
.
I actually dumped this tool just prior to Christmas. I wanted to use it to boost up a number of web pages for Christmas income, and not much more than that. And because of the massive price hike of 70 bucks a month, I’ve not used it since.

But, they have re assessed prices and if you have up to 5 domains to backlink to, you can still get in at $59 US per month. And that is the package I’ve now taken and will be using for this in-depth trial and feedback sessions.
.
I’ll be doing all the post writing myself (yoook!) so will be closely and regularly analyzing for goog rankings. I gotta watch my budget at the moment, so outsourcing fees have to be closely monitored (oh, what a bind!).
.
I’ll firstly be focusing in on one site. This site is around 16 months of age, and up until a few weeks ago was bringing in a relatively decent income from only 4 pages of content. Its now got 13 pages (posts) and I will be focusing on ranking about 10 of those.

I wish I could provide the domain name so you too could watch how it performs in Google, but because I rely on AdSense for income, I’m afraid that it would be imprudent to provide those details for fear of my AdSense account being terminated. Goog don’t mess around with that – if they sniff out peculiar behaviour, you’ve had it!

.

Okay, let me run through my current rankings and current Google search volumes for the pages I am intent on ranking for. If the stats look a bit crooked, then pop your webpage view to full size in your browser. On second thoughts, if you have already popped your browser page to full view and are still seeing crooked stats (as I am) then let me explain here.

The first column of figures is US local search volume in Google; second column is global search volume; third column is the AdSense CPC; fourth column is my current page ranking in Scroogle.

Hot Tools Update! Are These SEO Tools Cutting it?

I’ve been using Article Marketing Robot for just over 2 weeks now. My first batch of articles were not perfect in that my bio-box was not quite functional for all directories, so some of those can’t really be counted as adding much to over-all results.

In all I’ve added about 3 articles to 4 different domains. In the past few days I’ve been busy with some other stuff so did not manage to stick to my daily single article production.

But I’ve also been trying to push up the number of articles published on the AMR system, and to do that means you have to go through the whole process again and again, which is very time consuming and very heavy on the resources – both on my laptop and on my broadband connection which is cr.p! So I can only do about 4 run-throughs each day, which is really slow. And I’m not able to use the laptop for anything while this AMR processing goes on – its not an ideal situation at all!

Results so far for AMR?

BUILD MY RANK | How Does this Backlinking Tool Compare – HOT or Not?

Image of site stats 300x123 BUILD MY RANK | How Does this Backlinking Tool Compare   HOT or Not?I thought its about time I did a short (ish) review of one of the newer backlinking type products that I have been utilizing now for the past 4 weeks. Now, obviously the main aspect to backlinking type tools is whether they get the rankings or not. No point in spending hard earned on a tool that does not achieve rankings in SERP, regardless how easy to use it is, or how cheap the thing is.

(The image is of Analytics showing the search stats for the site I mentioned the other day, which up till a week ago was my best performer. But Google has had its way with it and many of the long tail kwds it was ranking for, well, its ranking no more. Frustrations!)

But please do keep in mind I have only been using this for 4 weeks so there is definite room for improvement in rankings given a bit more backlinking.

.

So let’s cut to the chase with regards this, and then I’ll also discuss in brief why I really like this particular set up.

I’m using my current employees to create a lot of these links for me, while I focus on other stuff, such as writing up more posts for this blog and communicating with folks via email – both about potential JV’s and about general SEO and what have you.

.

I’ll just take a broad and random assessment of some of the rankings I’m now seeing. SO here goes…
