OK this is my last Keyword Academy Case Study post – its a review of where I got a new site to in the rankings by solely using Postrunner for back links and some thoughts about the quality of the Postrunner system. As of  27 September – my postrunner promoted site had the following statistics: Rankings on 27 September  (2 August, 2 June | 30 April ,14 April 2010 in brackets | 8 April 2010) 15 pages indexed in Google (18, 24, 26, 15 |13 pages) 23  backlink recognized in yahoo (15, 13,13 ,6,1, 0) domain name exact match long-tail: 5 (8, 12, 14, 17 | 17) main keyword: 9 (14, 21, 17, 34 | 61) main keyword singular: 1 (12, 19 ,19 , 31 | 61) 4 other cousins are on page 1 and the other 2 are on page 2. A qualified success I think – but only qualified. Why only qualified? I have published 69 posts in Postrunner to support this site the most recent went live on the 23 August 2010. However of those 69 fully 22 are not indexed.  Now each and every one of those posts went to a different site in Postrunner – so I [...] Read more »

Computer dog?

OK so its been two months since I did the last Keyword Academy Case Study update! Postrunner Articles Live Since the 6 May I’ve published another 13 articles – with five sent but not yet published – so yes most of them have been published in the last couple of weeks! However I  now have some regular writers on board so I will hopefully get a more consistent number of articles published this month! Rankings As of 2 August 2010 Rankings on (2 June | 30 April ,14 April 2010 in brackets | 8 April 2010) 18 pages indexed in Google (24, 26, 15 |13 pages) 13 backlink recognized in yahoo (13,13 ,6,1, 0) domain name exact match long-tail: 8 (12, 14, 17 | 17) main keyword:14 (21, 17, 34 | 61) main keyword singular: 12 (19 ,19 , 31 | 61) Sorry I’ve stuffed up the tracking of the cousins – to the point I can’t remember which was which LOL. Suffice to say that they have all improved since 2 June and are now all on page 3 or 2. Note about the rankings – as I am still only getting trickle traffic – according to scroogle.org I am 14th [...] Read more »

End of the first month with my little Keyword Academy Case Study with the statistics for my new site after a month of Postrunner submissions. Basically the site seems to be growing naturally with  solid page 2 rankings for both my exact domain match and my main keyword. I have the distinct feel that the exact domain bonus drops siginficantly down if you have more than two words in the domain (this domain has four). Rankings as of 30 April 2010 Rankings on 30 April (14 April 2020 in brackets | 8 April 2010) 26 pages indexed in Google (15 |13 pages) backlink recognised in yahoo 6 (1, 0) domain name exact match long-tail: 14 (17 | 17) main keyword: 17 (34 | 61) main keyword singular: 19 (31 | 61) cousin keyword #1 ; 24 (63 | 47) cousin keyword #2: 22 (43 | > 100) cousin keyword #3 82 (>100 | > 100) cousin keyword #4 >100 (> 100 |>100) cousin keyword #5: 25 (and 78 double listing) (49 | 37) cousin keyword #6: 39 (60 | 71) cousin keyword #7: 33 (60 | 71) Postrunner Articles Live 25 articles live 2 still waiting review.

This is my 5th post in my Keyword Academy Case Study series.  If you missed the earlier posts you might want to start at the beginning This is too early to be doing an update – but I thought some of you would find this interesting.

Is there a link out there? Nope just the Tasman Sea!

This is the fourth  part of the Keyword Academy Case Study series – if you are new here you may want to start with part 1, part 2 and part 3 (Postrunner tutorial) So now we have the keywords chosen, the site installed – now what? Well first – particularly if this is a brand new domain – which mine is – you need to get the site indexed.  There is a sure fire way to do this – find a site which is being crawled by Google a lot – and get a link from it. I used Postrunner obviously – and many people there will tell you their site  has very fast indexing – most of them don’t lie either. Once I find a site that gets crawled a lot and gets sites indexed easily I carefully document and remember it (i.e. I scribble its name semi-legibly on a post it note and stick it on the white board). How To Know If  A Site has Quick Indexing Two types of sites seem to get quick indexing in my experience: authority sites sites whith lots and lots of updating content This site is an authority site (google  lissowerbutts.com [...] Read more »

OK I am seeing quite a few questions about Postrunner – The Keyword Academy’s link building tool – so I thought I’d throw an extra post into my  Keyword Academy Case Study series detailing the how and, probably  more importantly the why of using the PostRunner system (formerly the Guest Posting System, GPS). Even if you aren’t a member this might be helpful if you don’t understand why some of us get excited about giving away our content for free! This post is about Postrunner from an article submitters point-of-view. If you are interested in being a Postrunner Review for  publishers – see my second post about Postrunner- Adding a Site What is Guest Posting? There are lots of ways to get links – but high on most lists  is “guest posting”. You contribute as a guest on another blog and in return get a link back from the site and maybe some traffic as well. Here’s a  guest post I did recently: Building an Online Income. Now, finding places to contribute  guest posts, if you are in the niche of  freelance writing or make money online or similar, is not really that hard. I don’t accept regular guest posts [...] Read more »

Wellington on an unusually still day!

This is the second part  of my Keyword Academy  Case Study series  – if you missed the initial post you can check it out here. Keywords are everything in this business – start with the wrong keywords you will fail – I can prove that – been there done that – either failed to rank the site at all – or got to #1 – only to discover no money in the keyword! I have my own take on keywords – the Keyword Academy videos focus on looking for products – but personally I prefer services. Will I reveal the niche or the site. No – sorry not going to happen. The reasons why are quite simple: if I reveal the site people will help by sending me links – invalidating the experiment; if I actually start making bucket loads of cash from this site – I will suddenly have a whole lot more competition! So no hard feelings – I will tell you this about the niche: its a 3 word phrase describing a business need; its a service that  businesses pay good money for; its nothing at all to do with Internet Marketing or Making Money Online its [...] Read more »

OK you horrible lot. This is it I am going to prove that this works.  You can build websites – rank them in the search engines and retire to the beach to live off the earnings. I’ve been reading for ages that people love case studies – I know I love reading about case studies to – it sure beats working -  but I have resisted doing them because basically I saw them as a lot of work – they are in the discipine that I have any qualifications in – science. In science a case study is an experiment and you learn with experiments whether they prove or disprove the hypothesis. Internet marketing case studies are different. If an Internet Marketing case study fails – I make no money But there is really no downside in this experiment – I seriously doubt that I am going to fail to make money. I know that I can rank a site from ziltch to a page 1 in Google within 6 months if I chose the right keywords. If I do that I know I will make money from it (also sadly lacking in many science experiments). So what’s to lose? [...] Read more »
