Blue Hat SEO-Advanced SEO Tactics

Hey, got a question for you. We just came out with 2 new seo tools.

One is a mass blogging software found here - www.theblogsolution.com and the other is a content/RSS generator - www.thecontentsolution.com. Both are by far the best in their markets (not just the words of a proud parent) and are getting amazing reviews from our clients.

So right now, we’re looking for ways to get the word out about them. I like your site a lot and so I’m interested in anything you have to offer. I’m open to giving you the software for free for an honest review, exploring advertising options, or any other ideas you may have. thanks and let me know your thoughts…

Hi Scott,

Sure go ahead and send it to eli@digitalinsights.biz

Bluehatseo has officially become the main SEO blog i visit beating out SEOeggheads and SEOblackhat. Thanks again Eli for all the tips and info.

I have a question about Google sitemaps. Is it a good idea to set up a G sitemap for a machine-generated un-human-readable Adsense site? I’m thinking that your site might get indexed faster but might get de-listed faster, too.

Or would you get this type of site crawled using links, DITY, blog comments, etc. ?

Okay, another question: I wanted to use RSSGM like you suggested, installing it on a subdomain of an ArticleDashboard site. You stated that this seemed like a successful plan.

Do you think the success of this model is based on having your ArticleDashboard site out of the sandbox, into “trusted” territory? Or simply because you obviously had a legitimate site posted at that URL and your machine-generated pages were getting the benefit of the doubt? (Is it a good idea to mix human-readable and machine-gobbledegook on the same site?)

Thanks in advance for sharing your expertise, Eli!

Maybe you could take a few moments and do a walk-thru for the Wordpress Multiple Users installation? What little hair I have left is coming out in handfuls…

lol, i never managed to get it working.
It would give an error saying php mail() function disabled. Which of course it wasn’t. So me and quite a few others asked the wordpress team about it and they laughed at everyone who got that error and told them they need to learn how to configure their own servers.

So I went to cpanel and asked them about the error and they laughed at the wordpress team saying they need to learn how to script. Then said the server configuration was fine and it was a problem with the script.

So don’t feel bad if you couldn’t get it installed right I’m stuck at the moment to. Infact I think a lot of people are.

There’s a perfect example of Parasitic Hosting above hahahaha

Eli, (First time, long time)lol

I was reviewing every post on your blog for the third time, and i read a post about pinging. You have a list of sites you can ping. Do you mind explaining what the heck this is all about?

I found a ping-o-matic site and I submitted my rss feed. I have a good idea what this is… (Sounds like I could get some decent traffic since I have alot of rss feeds to promote) but I have no clue on how to do it or even read about it. I google it, but ping is to common of a word.

Thanks.

If I failed math I lose my comments!

Matt Cutts blog doesn’t.

Yeah, yeah, use word, I know. Screw word! Fix this incredibly annoying thing, please!!! I’ve lost comments too many times either because the math captcha “times out” or a simple mistake. I have phd level math and science abilities, but I’m also lazy ;^)^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^HADD

Also, it’s incredibly annoying having to constantly copy my comments to a text editor or the clipboard before hitting “add comment” everywhere

Dude,
Time to install the “email notification for blog comment updates” plugin.

It’s at: subscribe to comments

While you’re there, feel free to help yourself to the other WordPress plugins

PS: I really dig your traffic rankings. Awesome.

Dammit ! I keep loosing commets to !!

I disabled the “Did You Pass Math” plugin. Hopefully that will help
Thanks for the heads up guys.

Hello there.
I am facing a problem on my all-white hat, content-rich site, and would like the help of an SEO to solve a problem I face with pages getting dropped from google from only a section of the site. If you can, do add me on google chat so we can discuss this in detail. This doesn’t seem to be anything obvious, so need real help.

Hey Eli, you should really consider getting some decent ad filter ( such as one of the plugins I posted about, wink ) because your posts are being flooded with spam comments for all kinds of less interesting stuff.

Hi, Eli!

Thank you for all this tips. It’s very interesting and usefull.

May I translate some articles on russian and publish in my blog? With hyperlink to you, of course

Best regards
Ilya Guk

Hi Eli,

I have nice seo tool, you can check him here: http://seospot.net/en/

This tool check alot of info about your site and fast. One more think is my blog about link building, I cant compete with you but also mybe check it sometimes, these is my blog for link building: www.linkbuilding4u.com

OR

Alright Eli, seeing as you teach me so much I’m finally going to ask you a question that I can’t seem to find the answer too. I’ve got a site with adsense ads all over it, made it wordpress, but the ads showing in firefox aren’t relevant, while the IE ads are perfect. I’m guessing this has to do with the way firefox loads pages but I’m stumped on how to fix this one, any ideas?

My many website pages is indexed in supplemental results. can you tell me why?
I have no duplicate content and well linked pages, then why?

Have you used deliciousXchange and stumbleXchange for expanding the reach of your sites into social bookmarking?

URLS: http://www.deliciousxchange.com/ and http://www.stumblexchange.com/

I have used them a little and seen my traffic increase. The conversion is not always great, but for the cost, it is well worth it. Anyway, interested to see your thoughts on them.

Hi Eli,

Thanks for the great tips. I was wondering if you could switch to a full RSS feed? I often save your articles in case they should disappear (one never knows). A full feed would help me, and I assume others, to have a nice standardized, plain html archive of your knowledge.

Thanks, Dave

Eli, love your SQUIRT tool. What i am curious about now is how do I build up the TrustRank for my site? would love an article from you on the allusive TrustFactors and what we should be doing to SEO for them.

website Age and trust - if that is what you are competiting against, how do you beat them in the rankings on any particular keyword?

Eli,

Would you consider an article on short term traffic generation methods? (like what you covered in “How to make $100 a day”) I have sites/ideas I would like to test out for conversion, etc. before I commit resources to buiding a fully optimized site around an idea. Used to use PPC for this, but increasingly Googles QR making doing so affordably difficult. Thanks!

Hi,

I have a question for you.

I was thinking it would be a good idea to take the specific keywords people use to find my site which I’ve collected and make a page for each of them on my Wordpress blog.

What I was considering was using the Search Results feature of the Wordpress and optimizing the on-page results to reflect the keyword I’m optimizing for.

So, for example, say one of the keywords is “Wide Shoes”. Then I would optimize my search results page to have Wide Shoes in the title and in an h1 tag and then have the results of each post on my blog that has that term in it.

Then I would link to the page of the search results for that term from my homepage or some deeper pages. The anchor text would be the word I’m optimizing for, in the example Wide Shoes. You multiply that by 3000 keywords collected and you have some LONG tail results pages.

Does that seem like it would work? I tried messing around with the OPML file (the only way that Wordpress accepts link lists) and would DEFINETELY need some scripts to make it more efficient to do this tedious work.

What are your thoughts on this?

-Brad

Hey Eli,

I was wondering if you wanted to do a guess post on my site… let me know if you are interested. I can’t find your email so i decided to leave a message here for ya.

cheers.

Greetings, I translate your posts for Russian seo masters, your ideas are very informative, can we shall exchange references to ours blogs?

Hi Eli,

I have been studying your posts for the past few weeks and have implemented some of the ideas and they are working nicely Thanks again for sharing your knowledge.

I was wondering how I can join your forum? I’d like to share my observations regarding how your techniques worked for me thus far.

BTW, I have an idea for a post you could make: What tools do you use? I’m thinking of listing your favorite SEO tools like: firefox extensions, online tools, programming languages, log analizers, etc. Everybody else could comment with their favorite tools too. What do you think?

Dave

Great site! Thanks.

How about reviewing case study sites?

Like this one superdeoxys.wordpress.com
29 indexed pages, 5 back links.
Still PR4.

Is it hard to achieve it?

Hi Guys,

Great Posts…great info.Listen, I ve got a big question.

I ran a network of 150 gambling related domains back in year 2000 - It did great - however Ive not kept up with it over time…moving into diffent interests etc…

In general…150 gambling domains…great keywords etc..maybe 1000 indexed pages…and urgent need of rebuilding!!…

what to do?….revamp pages/link strucutre etc??

This thing is a goldmine!

wat can we do?…its a go

Eli–

Love the blog…
but….

A lot of the stuff seems inapplicable to me, simply because I run a very small, low volume site… a lot of the techniques and methodology in your posts require massive amounts of content and pages to work properly. Any advice for the little guys?

- Drew

Hi!
when I submits Post it says ” sorry, no post match your criteria. please explain.

Hi Eli,

Just a quick question, is there an easy way that you submit your sites to all of the directories as I can see doing them by hand!

I’ve really enjoyed your site.

Thanks,
Michael

Hi Eli,

We have finished development of our multi-lingual link scheme and are looking to spread the word about it.
Can you help? How?

What about remuneration?

Cheers,

Hi There,

I believe you might find this post I made worthy of a post on your blog It ’s kinda grey hat. This little wordpress hack basically makes your wordpress searches indexable by google by turning them into valid html pages in Google’s eyes:

Hey Eli,

I asked you some questions on doing the SEO Empire whitehat, in your follow up post. Any chance you could answer those?

Thanks,
Gabriel

Hi Eli,

A quick question for you.

Many people suggest it is not a good idea to quickly upload maybe a website with 1000’s of pages as the search engines would apparently suspect something spammy.

In my own experience, if I upload a site with say 250 pages, I can usually get the main domain and any main folders indexed by Google in a few days. (I always find Yahoo and MSN much more difficult though most people tell me it should be the other way around) - but Google will usually start with maybe 10 pages and then a week later I may find its indexed about 20 then some more in the next few weeks and perhaps never indexing all the pages. At this point I can then consider linking to the non-indexed pages from some other sources to encourage indexing of these “missing” pages.

Now consider if I uploaded a site with 10000 pages instead. Does the search engine on its first and following visits know there are 10000 pages newly arrived on the web or will it slowly spider and index the pages over a long period of time?

Thanks,
Garnett.

Sorry of this post appears twice - I submitted a few minutes ago and it did not show up - if it doesn’t show up this time I’ll try some other time)

Hi Eli,

I thought I would ask this question separately from the previous one as although the two are linked it may be a bit more long-winded.

It relates partly to several previous posts you made. One on using dead sites (spare domain names), one on providing page rank to money sites and finally one on the fact that subdomains can get delisted without affecting the main domain providing there is no link back from the main domain.

Lets suppose I have a few dead sites and hosting on various shared hosting accounts. These hosting accounts hold some good sites so I don’t want to upset my hosting providers in any serious way. Equally, my skill levels are not enough to pull off anything too fancy right now.

Let’s also say that I have huge amounts of content from PLR sources that I can post on my sites. The content is probably duplicate content but has no outgoing links in it at present and is probably at least seen by the search engines as non-scraped content.

What I’m planning would be something along the lines of this..and this would primarily be to build rank to another site - on another shared hosting account.

I create a site called for example petcenter.com and then create maybe 40 subdomains from it for cat.petcenter.com, dog.petcenter.com all the way to zebra.petcenter.com. Next I load each of these sites with a mixture of this duplicate content and some RSS feed pulls so that each subdomain site has a number of pages in the region of 500 to 1000 pages.

The homepage of the subdomain only links to a sitemap which in turn links to each of the site pages (to provide a search engine indexing path) and finally each of the internal pages links back to the homepage of the subdomain. The notion here is that as per Ian Roger’s Page Rank analysis [Example 13 would be ideal but I’ll probably link the internal pages to each other or at least back to the sitemap page for visitor friendliness] that this subdomain may then end up with a fairly high pagerank capability. (I refer really to Ian’s consideration of Real PR value rather than the toolbar value).

Finally, I then link from each of the subdomains back to the main domain with another outgoing link. This is theory then would mean that without any outside involvement I could potentially drive this main domain name to a PR value of about 3.

(40 subdomains of Real PR value about 200 gives 8000 or a toolbar rank of PR3).

Let’s imagine now that I do this on 20 more full domains and end up with 20 PR3 sites. I now push the value from these sites to a money site on a completely different IP address to give it much more authority.

This money site could now potentially could have a PR of 4 or 5 giving it either a boost in the SERPs or at least the ability to sell advertising (or hopefully both).

My concern is that although this is probably time consuming, it all sounds too good to be true. (Let’s face it, there is no outside involvement as I’ve essentially made my own link network.) That’s hopefully where you can maybe give me some guidance before I plough headlong into this over the next few months.

Hope this all makes some sense.

Thanks,
Garnett.

Where do keyword tools come up with some of the results?
These tools are supposed to show results of what people have keyed in but when then would someone key in the following (returned from keyword elite on a search for forex trading).

forex-forex-broker-currency-trading-software-forex-trading-systems-forextradingcenterinfo

Why would anyone key this into a search engine?

Hi eli

I’ve been thinking long and hard about the getting 100’s of backlink an hour..

i think i found a way so noobs (heh like me)
could use your technique
but i wanted to run this through you before i make a fool of myself (or even more so)

Would this work? i have set it up on my blog.

make a wordpress blog
use these plugins

http://www.joostdevalk.nl/wordpress/rss-footer/
this lets you add a footnote to your rss posts

this would allow you to get in multiple URLs if you want to get 100’s of links to multiple sites at once

http://devthought.com/wp-o-matic-the-wordpress-rss-agreggator/
Features

i have worked with this plugin for a while now and works ok
it does change the titles to link to your own blog so that is ok

am i thinking correctly that wordpress would ping it to google, yahoo.. if you make it? (in the wordpress option settings?)

Please let me know if this indeed is correct
i can then make a post on my blog about it
linking to your site ofcourse

thank you

Eli,

Your blog is brill. Add a donation plug in so us readers could buy you a beer!

Hi, I think you have an excellent resource for SEO information and I am an avid reader of your posts although some are beyond my technical expertise I am always impressed with your creative solutions. I am writing to invite you to read our SEO comic strip, Ranked Hard.

I am also asking if you would do a review of this on your site or at least a mention. I think you readers would find it entertaining.

Thanks for your time and you can find the comic strip here:

It concerns your post “How to make a $100 per day”. Precisely, Promosoft. Maybe, you could recommend some analogues to it.

Thank you,

Where can we find the reviews of the submitted software ?

Hi Eli,

I’ve gone through many of your pages here and been very impressed. I wondered if you have a few recommendations for SEO individuals who have adopted your techniques and work for small companies like mine? Of course, please see my url above.

Thanks for your help!

Do you know what parisian subway station is on the blog’s header ?
I did live in Paris for a while and according to the train’s colors, the wall pavement, and the white on blue sign, this can only be parisian subway.

I have nice rss feed generator and submission tool, check it here: http://www.sellover.com/feedbuilder/

This tools features include: rss feed generator for any web page or for all pages, gathering and mixing of rss feed from different website automatically, auto-submission of your rss feed to thousands of rss search engines automatically!

you REALLY need a new header graphic. I keep talking to people who said it was a major deterrent to their first time visit (they almost left right away cause it looked generic).

Get a competition on DigitalPoint or hire a good designer, but get something thats really brand-able, and you will stick a lot better in peoples minds, and make it easier for them to recognize you when they have stumbled on your blog on a couple ocassions.

oh yeah, its freaking cheap too. digital point maybe $25 - $50. pro designer: $150 - $400.

Eli,

I have been using hittail for a long time on one of my websites. Right now, I have a list of about 23,000 unique keywords that have been used to find this website over the last year.

What can i Do with this list? How do I leverage it? How do i SEO it? Help!?!?

-Brad

hii i would like to discuss you about SEO, can u please contact me via E-mail

Hey how’s it going? I have been visiting this site now and then when I am reading up on SEO. I was wondering if this is technique is considered illegal by search engines. Here is the technique :

say I have a div and I want the dive to have certain attributes i.e size 14 text. Say my keyword is wealth can I in the css say .wealth{blah} and give the dive the class wealth? Also I would place all the CSS in and external document.

Thanks in advance for your advice.

I want to introduce PR Stumble Software, it’s a referral spamming tool that will improve your PR and traffic all within 48 hours! It’s 50 times faster and 200 times effective than other referral tools available out there. The software disguises your website as the referrer of thousands of visitors to any website you want, by this way your site is ranked for your keywords in search engines, which in turn brings in much needed traffic and PR increase. The details is available at http://www.prstumble.info

What if a website was totally optimized for certain keywords and phrases, but then suddenly their traffic stopped?

All that time, effort and money spent is now being wasted.

While Google has been indexing websites, if they find any malicious code covertly inserted by any one of the multitude of cyber criminal gangs, they
could add this to the SERP:

Hi, Google Images is sending me the wrong type of traffic. I work for a staffing firm and I integrated Social Media in our marketing mix. The problem is that lately, I have been getting irrelevant traffic through my social media logos from images.google.com.

I don’t understand why but Google has apparently ranked me very high for Youtube Logo, Twitter Logo and Wikipedia Logo and that is not the type of visitors we want. This traffic is completely ruining my stats.

Hello,

Love you ping crawl script. One of my hosts is throwing this error though.

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or ‘}’ in /wp-content/plugins/pingcrawl.php on line 12

Does this look like an error caused by having PHP 5 vs 4?

What is the ø for? (o with slash)

I’d very much like to know how to knock a single page out of the SERPS. Is that possible?

Mads, it was to attract a higher CTR in natural SERPs - the idea is that the odd characters make the title stand out.

I have about 1000 domains that I want to use to create a authority hub. Currently, all these domains sit on 2 separate IP address and all of them are interlinked. They have scrape content on them and about 50% of them are indexed in Google.

I can’t afford to have these sites on a hosting service or on different C-class addresses.

I just got access to 100 IP address that I can use to spread the domains on, but these IPs are all consecutive address.

How I can use 100 IPs and 1000 domains to create a authority hub without raising a red flag in Google’s eyes?

good to share your tips but i don’t find anything new in it. looks like novel a big story like! i don’t think people are attracted to this site and me too.

Interesting reading but I will have to come back when I understand more. How are you supposed to eliminate links to Wiki
W

These are really interesting tools. Very helpful.

My question is that Google keeps changing the algorithm and how to we keep up. It’s kind of tough.

I’m just curious how long does Google does their PR update.

I am struggling to find out how Google does the algorithm.

I’ve posted several times in other posts and my comments never showed up. I assumed that posts were going to be reviewed. After reading this, I realize that I just lost them. Darn it! I’ve double checked my math and I placed out of math in college so I don’t know if that’s quite the reason I’m losing my comments.

I have a plugin for SEO, but first I will translate it to english and post the link to people use it.

Thanks.

Hey Eli!

This blog has been such a great resource for me! I wanted to start off by thanking you for sharing your knowledge on blue hat! My question is regarding the intitle/inanchor advanced modifiers.

Do you know which combination would yield better results to gauge competition?

Say for example, we want to find out how many websites are competing for the keyphrase “dog training”.

Is it better to do a search using:

intitle:”dog training” inanchor:”dog training”
OR
intitle:dog intitle:training inanchor:dog inanchor:training

Thanks again!

Hi Blue Hat SEO,

I recently discovered your blog and I really love it. I wish I had been here 2 years ago. I always bumped into the sites give a little but try to sell things. Yours seem not like that.

I came here because of the PingCrawl plugin you made. And that’s where I have question. Do you mind help me out?

The question is: How do I make PingCrawl work with Page as well?

Thanks in advance.

Article submission softwares are all hoaxes.

I just want to know on an rss feed, is the link a “nofollow” or “dofollow”? thanks
