Today Slightly Shady SEO put up a post about the future of the black hat side of things. It was pretty much to the point and straight up along the lines I’ve been saying. He talks about 3 methods – speed, stealth, and do it yourself. Go read his post –> Slightly Shady SEO Over [...]

You should be using every opportunity to get links pointing to your sites, and to be honest it gets harder everyday.  Between human reviewers, advanced spiders looking for black hat sites, and your competition willing to report you to improve their rankings. You have a few choices to keep up with the game.  Massive trickery [...]

I’ve already gotten a few questions about day 10 and the micro sites.  I put this package up a few months ago – but it might help you guys who want to put up sites fast. Here is a sample: http://adverev.com/sample/photo/ Here is where you get them: http://adverev.com/sample/  Nothing fancy — but they are made [...]

Day 10 sites can really be either foundation level sites or White Hat sites.  I call them Micro sites because they only need 5 or 10 pages to work and they are targeted to a particular product, service, or something fun. The goals for these sites are either just pure link bait (fun stuff) or [...]

I got an e-mail today pretty much asking me where the heck the next day was.  I figured I couldn’t hide it anymore – Black Hat Digest has been hacked.  Here is the proof: Yep someone took a chainsaw to the site – it was very traumatic. OR OR OR The reality is I can’t [...]

I’d planned to release the latest version of MTN sites today.  Well screw me and my planning.  Who the heck thought of Spring Break for kids anyway? I TRIED to get them to just go sit on the school steps but do they listen?  Nope – they seem to think it’s unreasonable. I’m still working [...]

Not my idea – so here is the place where I found it:  Twitter Fun. I haven’t gotten around to doing it yet – but looks like it’s pretty easy to get links coming back to all your blogs each time you make a post.  Enjoy #af-form-1394620488 .af-body .af-textWrap{width:98%;display:block;float:none;} #af-form-1394620488 .af-body .privacyPolicy{color:#000000;font-size:12px;font-family:Verdana, sans-serif;} #af-form-1394620488 .af-body [...]

For day 9 we are going to be covering affiliate datafeeds.  What’s a datafeed you say? Most affiliate networks that have real merchants (sears, walmart, etc..) offer datafeeds of the entire merchants catalog in CVS or some other format. For the rest of day 9 I’m going to cover ways you can work this stuff [...]

Day 8 is kind of boring all around.  It’s about gaining some trust, traffic, and of course spider’s coming to visit you.  I wish I could say you could automate everything but if you aren’t a programmer you just can’t. There are tools out there to automate certain things, but comments that get you the [...]
