Your 1st 10 Free Links With BMR

First of all, Happy Thanksgiving to you all. I know not every country celebrates Thanksgiving but you can’t go wrong with giving thanks for what you have.

This morning I mentioned in a forum post or two on InfoBarrel that I have been seeing some fantastic growth in my InfoBarrel income this month. I am still trending just shy of my $1000 goal for the month but it’s close. Today is actually my best day for earnings there this month. With a little luck I may get to $1000 after all.

How am I doing it though you may ask? I built a bunch of media pages to existing articles and linked to them from the article they are attached to. This will be outlined in an upcoming post here on Chezfat.com and I am building links to my best earners with BuildMyRank (BMR) as outlined in my plan to bring more traffic to my  best earning articles on IB.

I noted on the forum and in many posts here on the blog that this service is quickly becoming my new favorite service. I’ve been a member for about 5-6 months or so and I used it quite extensively in the beginning and then less so over the summer – I had a new baby in the house otherwise I would have been all over that. :)

Link Building With BMR - A Breeze

Let’s just put it this way. You can only post up to on average 8.5 links per day to a given domain on BMR. For the InfoBarrel domain that means I can only get about 85 links in a 10 day period. I can have up to 5 domains that I submit to every day which means I can also link build to my own sites but for IB, which this post is about, I can only send so many links out every month.

Each link I build is only 150 words or more of text. That’s it. It only takes me around 3-4 minutes to crank out 150 words and I usually finish them up around 200+. Basically an hour’s worth of work every day can yield me links on IB for the entire day plus some more.

Is it worth it though…

YES

BMR is expensive; I can’t lie. I had reservations when I signed up but they offer 10 free links during their free trail.

A Few Of My Experiences With A Handfull Of BMR Links

In late October I had a brand new site (target Amazon), a few months old at least, that had no links built to it at all. It was receiving on average 4-6 unique visitors a day. I fired up BMR and sent 10 links to the home page, 10 links to an interior page with a “for men” modifier, and 10 links to a page with a “for women” modifier on my root keyword.

These 30 links went live in approximately 4 days and they took me about 3 hours to write. The site immediately, within a few days, started getting around 30-40 unique visitors a day and has already made me 10 Amazon sales of the product. It took me three hours worth of work. This should probably continue happening month after month for a long time. I will obviously be continuing to build this site out and build more links too but that's another topic all together.

On IB, I chose a handful of my best earning articles and started sending them BMR links (see my last post for details). I started out doing 30 links to each page. It takes about 4 days to publish 30 links to the same domain so I’ve only backlinked a few IB articles this month so far. Despite that my income has shot up around $670 per month and this month it’s approaching $1000. BMR links are ridiculous!

I make no apologies for linking to BMR with an affiliate link. Use it if you wish or plug the domain name into your browser and skip the affiliate link if you wish but if you haven’t tried BMR yet I urge you to try the ten link offer. It’s free and there are no commitments except about an hour of your time to write (from scratch) ten 150 word posts to build links with.

My Advice For Best Using Your 10 Free Links

Whether you do this on InfoBarrel or another site you own makes no difference. Identify (if you don’t know already) one of your best performing pages published online and link to this one page only with all 10 BMR links. This will maximize your efforts for promotion and give you results you should be able to measure with in a week to 10 days time.

Ideally you will find a page that ranks somewhere around #10 in Google for it’s keyword and has already shown the ability to earn you money. The 10 links will all go live within a couple days of you publishing them and your page will almost assuredly shoot up higher than before giving you better earnings than before.

This is not guaranteed by any means but it happens almost without fail for me. Vary the anchor text a little with your submissions but just push out 10 links as quick as possible and see what happens.

You have 15 days to publish the links and see what happens before you decide to subscribe or cancel the subscription. If you build all ten links immediately you should have more than a week to watch your rankings improve before deciding the program is worth your time and money.

Give it a shot; but let me say this.

If you try the free trial out and like it you should only subscribe if you are going to use it. The membership fee is steep - $59 per month. If you are not actually going to post anything then just get your 10 free links and move on. If you use it however you will be handsomely rewarded and your membership fee will not be wasted.

OK, enough from me. It’s back to pumping out more BMR links to my stuff. I’ve got student loan bills to pay down. :)

Chime in below with comments about your use of BMR or your questions about the tool.

InfoBarrel On Yahoo - News Release

Just a quick post for the night.  I've had a number of InfoBarrel related posts go live on this blog over the past few weeks and that hasn't really been my goal.  This isn't going to be an InfoBarrel only focused blog but right now it is currently the focus of my efforts.

I have been spending time on a number of different sites, adding monetization to sites I've been on for a while and experimenting with other sites but currently InfoBarrel has been my main focus so I thought it was particularly cool to see this news release published over on Yahoo regarding InfoBarrel's latest milestone.

Just a couple days ago IB had it's 50,000th post published and it is cracked through the Alexa 6,000 rank.  The site is growing and and this InfoBarrel article published on Yahoo is just a small demonstration of that growth.

Ryan the owner of InfoBarrel published this article and it highlights the perks of IB as well as the reasons why the site is such a great place to hang out and learn - the community.  It's what Phil said in his guest post a couple days ago.  Nowhere else is there a greater mix of people who are focused not only on themselves but also on the task of helping everyone else.

Case Study For Reducing Insulin Levels

It’s been a while since I did a good case study and this month I’m going to do a major one, an SEO Case Study On Reducing Insulin Levels in fact.

I routinely link to my main blog from this site and in the past I’ve discussed my goals for getting the site ranked for it’s main keywords associated with the title. If you haven’t gone through my archives you can read up a bit on that in my most recent post on the subject titled my SERP Rank Update.

As I obviously want my main blog keywords to rank well I also know that they don’t really command much commercial value. Unfortunately I started this site before I thought to do keyword research. Nevertheless I’ve always intended on developing this site into a large authority site that covers most of the health, longevity, and anti-aging niche so as I work on expanding my keyword authority for the main pages with related anchored links like, how to live a long life, I also am starting to rank many deep pages which have less to do with longevity and much more to do with general health.

I thought that by posting this case study for all eyes here on Earn Residual Income Online this would be a good way to do a few things. I would first be able to teach a bit about what I’m doing to others who haven’t given this much thought. It would also be a way for me to be very structured in developing a page of my main site. This would also be a good way to illustrate that ranking pages in InfoBarrel and making money on them is not that hard and now that eHow is changing so significantly many may wish to put more effort into using InfoBarrel for residual income. Lastly, posting this here helps with building backlinks to the pages involved in this case study.

Why Reducing Insulin levels?
One might guess that this search term is an awesome keyword but I would promptly say that it is not. It is actually just a marginal keyword that is slightly better than one might assume by looking at Adwords Keyword Tool. If you look at the tool you will see that my exact search term “how to reduce insulin levels” only gets about 73 searches per month at a CPC of $0.05. This screams run for the hills. Check out the picture and click it for a larger view.

Despite this however I know that this term gets a bit more than 73 searches per month and I know my clicks are better than that because I have a page that I published on my main blog in May of last year (when I had absolutely no idea what keyword targeting was). Additionally I had no idea that link-building helped an article rank better either but yet this page quickly became on of my blogs first successful pages because people were searching for this term.

Now I don’t want you to think this is an exceptional term because it isn’t. I've only got 112 uniques for this keyword in the past month.  Much better than 73 but hardly anything to pays the bills with.  For months now I’ve hovered in the top three of Google for this term (usually at number 1) and I currently reside in the number 3 spot for it. And even though you can’t get all the searches at number one I’m still getting a good amount of traffic using this search term. See pics.

In fact I didn’t even think to go back and link build for this page for a long time simply because I was already at number one and didn’t expect much out of the page. Early this year or so I decided maybe it was worth backlinking this post anyway because there was obviously more traffic for this term that Adwords suggested and I threw up a few backlinks to the site from: Manage Insulin Levels And Live Longer, How Does Insulin Resistance Develop, The Pancreas and Insulin Production, and Lower Blood Glucose Levels.

I then posted a backlink to the article from Xomba on February 25, using the exact same keyword for the title, How To Reduce Insulin Levels, and then I posted an article on eHow on April 2 with essentially the same keyword, How to Reduce Insulin Levels Naturally. With no backlinking both of these two posts are sitting on page 2 of Google demonstrating that not only is there more traffic for the word but it’s also very easy to rank for. See pic.

What about earnings though. Adwords says the estimated CPC is only $0.05, well again this is not accurate as I can tell from my original post on my blog in May 2008. It’s not like I’m getting tons of money from this but I am getting an acceptable CPC for an un-researched search term, probably in the vicinity of around .40-.50 per click. Why is that you may wonder. It’s because (as far as I understand) the term contains the keyword “insulin levels” which is a commercial term with 1,300 visitors a month and estimated CPC over $1. See pic.

This basically means that though I can’t rank for the good term I can still get the ads for the good term for a long-tail of it which gets a small amount of searches per month. And because the term isn’t that hard to rank for it should be a fairly easy way to make a few bucks... assuming you all don’t go out there and try to outrank me for it. :)

Anyway, because my three articles for this search term ranking in the top 20 all stand on their own, meaning none of them are passing link juice on to the others I feel that there shouldn’t be any problem in getting all three of them on the first page of Google, and possibly four or five. How?

First of all one of my articles, How to Reduce Insulin Levels, the one that has been fluctuating between number 1-3, can easily pass link juice onto another one of my related blog posts, 11 Ways To Reduce Insulin Levels, which is also currently ranking well for the same term, and I might be able to get double indexing for it if I play my cards right. Also, if I write an article in InfoBarrel and have it send dofollow backlinks to all three of the current articles ranking for this keyword then maybe I could get the Xomba and eHow article ranking on page 1 as well.

Today I went and published How To Reduce Insulin Levels on Infobarrel and linked it to the Xomba article and the eHow article. Indirectly the Xomba article has the potential to push visitors through the URL to my main blog page as well because it is a Xomba Bookmark. The IB article has been live for less than a day and it’s already indexed. Keep this in mind guys, InfoBarrel is a quality site with quick indexing.

If you take a look at the following pictures you can see what I did to the Infobarrel article to give it proper on-page SEO, I used the exact keyword title, used the exact keyword a few times in the article with two of them linking the exact anchor text over to my other articles ranking for this keyword and then used variations of the exact keyword in the tags and throughout the article. Check it out. Note the related articles on the right of the InfoBarrel article screen if you head over to the actual article; they’re virtually all mine rigth now so they all pass link juice to one another.

In the coming days I’m going to throw up a few backlinks at this IB article as well as the Xomba and eHow articles and my Insulin Levels and Vitamin K blog post and I’m going to see if I can get all 5 money making articles of mine on page 1 of Google for this keyword over the next month. I honestly don’t know if I can or if it’s worth the effort but it certainly would be cool to see if I can.

Wish me luck and I will definitely provide updates throughout the month.

You can always help out the cause by sending me an anchored link too. Wink, wink.
