About Me


About Me
           I was born in 1988 in, a small country town of Gunnedah, the Koala Capital of the World,
           Australia. My name is Michael Doring.

I stayed in Gunnedah for 14 years, the first 12 were like any normal Childs, and the next two were
similar to the 1983 movie ‘The Outsiders’. I dealt drugs, did drugs – committed other crimes, and
ran-with the wrong crowd. In that time, I was held hostage at knifepoint, beaten a dozen times, and
many other dark things happened - my Aunty passed away, my Dad had a massive heart-attack, and
my Mum got cancer.

Leap forward to me at 15, I got away from the wrong crowd, and started getting 100% on most of
my exams, I guess going to school helped. I eventually had a nervous breakdown, and was
committed at the young age of 15 into a Mental Health Institution, for a month, and on medication
for a year.

In 2004, I then travelled to Sydney, and lived with my older brother Geoff. I excelled at school for the
next three years. The majority of classes were Computer-based, and that set the foundation for my
future online success.

In 2005, I meet my partner, currently of 7 years now, Joyce. I planned to join the SAS, or Commando
Unit 4RAR, in the Australian Army, but instead I ended up working for Michelle Patisserie, in the
factory, making Pies.

In Jan 2008, the company, Datacom, employed me. I worked on several contracts. I was a Technical
Support Specialist for BigPond (Call Centre), one of the biggest Internet Service Providers in
Australia. At Datacom, I also had a stint as a Team Leader for the ‘Department of the Environment,
Water, Heritage and the Arts’ Government information line.

Whilst at Datacom, I created several applications that were used by over 300 people, such as my Call
Notes application, and a CRM. In addition, I came up with over two dozen innovative initiatives, and
won three Innovation Awards. My actions in my Technical Support Specialist position led to Datacom
creating a new job role, Innovation Specialist, and they transferred me into that position.

I left Datacom around August 2010, and went to work for another computer company called Gizmo,
and that ended in 2011 in the middle of February due to downsizing. I was made redundant, and
thus, in 2011 February I became a fulltime Internet Marketer.

How did I get involved in Internet Marketing?

My life as an Internet Entrepreneur started in Balmain, Sydney on New Year’s Eve 2009. I spent the
night reigning in the New Year with, my two best mates, Marcel and Rob. Marcel, who was already
participating in Internet Marketing - gave me the idea to create a website for my Sports Betting
Application. Because earlier, in 2009, I came up with an idea to create an Uber Sports Betting
Application, I like sports, and gambling, so it made sense. I spent months researching - I had a 200
page-planning document by the end, and 20 Gigabytes of companion data.

About Me


Therefore, when New Years Day arrived, January 1st 2010, I purchased my first website related to
Internet Marketing, it failed – but it was my first taste, and set in motion my passion for making
money online.

I received my first payment related to Internet Marketing on 19/07/2010, it took 7 months, but I
made $128.15 that month. However, real success struck around January 2011, I started having lots
of $100, and even $300 days. I now work from home as fulltime Internet Entrepreneur.

I now have my own, SEO business, Website Design business, numerous affiliate websites, and have
even started creating software, and products.

In short, I have had a life full of ups and downs, but right now – I am rich, working from home, and
loving what I do.

Introduction


Introduction
Firstly, thanks for helping with my success – buying this eBook. Therefore, since you have helped me
with my success, it is only fair I help you. I hope this eBook repays my debt to you.

In addition, if you need help with anything, feel free to PM me on the Warrior Forum
(http://www.warriorforum.com/members/michaeldoring.html), or email me at
email@michaeldoring.com.

I apologize in advance if my writing is unorthodox, and contains grammatical errors – I still have my
training wheels on when it comes to writing. Nevertheless, I hope you enjoy this backlink finding
resource.



Important: When creating backlinks be careful not to break the Google Webmaster Guidelines:
http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?answer=35769, I encourage White
Hat link building only.

Advice: When using many of the backlink finding methods listed, it is best to be running a browser
plug-in that can detect no-follow links, PR, etc. Such as:

       SearchStatus - http://www.quirk.biz/searchstatus/; (Only works with Firefox)
       SEO Quake - http://www.seoquake.com/ (Should work with Safari, Chrome and Firefox)



I have fluffed around enough, and I will start discussing, backlinks on the next page – so turnover the
page, and I will start the Backlink Hunting escapades.

What are Backlinks?


What are backlinks?
‘Backlinks are incoming links to a website’ - see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backlink for more
details.

What is the significance of backlinks?

Google’s original name for its search engine was BackRub, ‘because the system checked backlinks to
estimate the importance of a site’ 1
                                                                                               1
The search results displayed in Google are ‘based on a… *ranking system called+… PageRank’

The Google Search algorithm (PageRank) has been reported to have ‘over 200 different indicators’ 1
used to position websites in its index. The biggest factor contributing to a websites position in
Google’s index is purported to be the backlinks factor, which derives from the ‘analyses of human-
generated links’.1

A websites PageRank is apparently the ‘recursive score based on the weighted sum of the PageRank
of the pages linking to them’1, it is based on the notion of popularity and relativity.

The popularity factor is determined by how many links you get and from whom. Relativity however
is about how people link to your site. For example: if a lot of people link to your site with the link
text (anchor text) ‘best search engine’ then Google considers your webpage highly relevant to a user
searching for ‘best search engine’, and is likely to place you towards the top of the SERPs (Search
Engine Results Pages). Obviously, other known and unknown, factors such as webpage content are
in the mix (the algorithm), to produce the most relevant results, and weed out spammers.

So utilize backlinks, to make your website more visible in search engines, so you get more traffic.
Through this increased visibility comes the chance of enormous financial gain, and with a bit of luck
it leads to a millionaire lifestyle.

In summary, Google became successful because of its innovative way to use backlinks to improve
search results, and thus backlinks are very important, so read on to discover how to find backlink
opportunities – and just maybe these ideas will help with your success.

Two questions about the http://www.youtube.              In this video, Matt Cutt talks about the link
link: operator          com/watch?v=TjQ2Q                operator. It tells that historically Google only had
                        VQpaK0                           a small amount of room on its servers for link:
                                                         queries, and even though one would assume
                                                         they now have server capacity to show all link:
                                                         query data, it would seem Google only shows a
                                                         relatively small sample of links. The reasoning
                                                         seems to be sound, Matt Cutt explains,

Backlink Finding Method 2: Linkdomain: Operator (Yahoo) AND Yahoo Site Explorer


Backlink Finding Method 2

Linkdomain: Operator (Yahoo) AND Yahoo Site Explorer

What is Yahoo Site Explorer?

Yahoo Site Explorer lets you explore web pages indexed by Yahoo! search, in many diverse ways. For
the purposes of this eBook, we only care about its ability to help find backlinks.

Note: Site Explorer data may not always be accurate, as Yahoo talks of phasing it out, due to its
alliance with Bing (Microsoft). See this article for more info
http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/search/siteexplorer/siteexplorer-01.html

Note: The use of the linkdomain: operator in Yahoo search will automatically redirect you to Yahoos
Site Explorer, so really they are one in the same.

Step 1: Type linkdomain:http://www.websiteurl.com into a Yahoo search box; or




        Step 1b: Step 1 is a shorter method vs. Step 1b as proven by the dot-points...

                 Go-to http://siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com and enter a
                  http://www.websiteurl.com and then click the ‘Explore URL’ button.




                 It will display a list of all indexed pages for the queried domain/URL (much-like the
                  site: operator in Google), but we don’t want this, so click the ‘Inlinks’ button, and
                  then select from Show Inlinks dropdown menu ‘except from this domain’.




Lastly, Step 2: A list of web pages linking to the queried site should now be displayed. Happy
hunting, you should be able to find thousands of sites to place backlinks on using this method.

Backlink Finding Method 4: Forum Profile Username Trick, or any profile username for that matter


Backlink Finding Method 4

Forum Profile Username Trick, or any profile username for that
matter

What is a forum?

If you have to ask, you are in trouble, but Wikipedia is great for those troublesome huh moments, so
see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_forum for answers.

What are forum profiles?

When you register on a forum, you get your own forum profile (membership page). This forum
profile is almost like your own mini-blog, it is a web page about you. This forum profile tends to be
accessible by the wider forum and internet community.

Why do Internet Marketers care about forum profiles? It is another place to put a backlink.

Some interesting comments about spam profiles from Google Webmaster Central Blog, spammers
‘...will create accounts and fill their profiles with gibberish... they'll add a sneaky link... Welcome to
the world of spam profiles...Some fake profiles are obvious...but we've noticed an increase in savvier
spammers that try to use real names and realistic data to sneak in their bad links... This isn't an easy
problem to solve...Google is constantly under attack by spammers trying to create fake accounts and
generate spam profiles on our sites, and despite all of our efforts some have managed to slip
through...’ these comments are from Spam2.0: Fake user accounts and spam profiles (2009, June 26th). Retrieved
5th May 2011, from Official Google Webmaster Central Blog:

Backlink Finding Method 4: Forum Profile Username Trick, or any profile username for that matter


Now to the method of finding backlink opportunities by using a profile username:

Step 1: Use the following formula in google: niche/category forum +member list e.g. software
forum +member list




Step 2: The vast majority of the results should be forum member lists

Step 3: Open some of the sites in the search results

Step 4: Start scanning through the forum usernames for spammy-looking users, and open their
profile page by clicking on their username, profile spam is so bad that you tend to find a candidate
on the first go.

Tip: spammy users tend to have few or no posts, and contain numbers in the username.




Note, sometimes you get errors like “Sorry! The administrator has disabled the list of members.” If
that happens you can just view forum threads individually to harvest username candidates, or skip
that forum all together.




Step 5: Look at the users profile signature, homepage details, etc for outbound links that are do-
follow.




Reminder: If you want to check do-follow status of a link, enable one of the plug-ins mentioned in
the introduction such as SEO Quake.

Step 6: Now if the profile has an outbound do-follow link generated by the user, then copy the URL
and paste it into some kind of tracking document like notepad, excel.

www.michaeldoring.com                                                                    Page 18 of 77
Backlink Finding Method 4: Forum Profile Username Trick, or any profile username for that matter


Step 7: Almost the same condition as step six needs to be true, (If the profile has an outbound link
generated by the user, regardless of nofollow or dofollow) then copy the profile username.

Step 8: Paste the profile username into Google, Bing or Yahoo with quotes (or without).




Tip: I have noticed Google tends to return vastly more results, than its competitors do, when
searching by profile usernames.

Tip: In some instances profile pages may not be returned, this depends on the username queried, so
you can try improving the query by adding +profile e.g. bob442 +profile

Lastly, Step 9: Open all links listed in the search results, the majority should be profile pages on
different forums, many allowing backlinks. Copy the URL of any backlink opportunity you might wish
to pursue into some kind of tracking sheet.




Warning: I do not condone web-spam, or the creation of spam profiles. This information is just for
entertainment purposes only. I know I am a hypocrite for showing you how to find them, well that is
how I like-it, the hypocrites have the best tea parties anyway.

However, seriously, you can use this information for good, when you create outbound links
remember to actually provide value to the forum, contribute, answer problems, do it in a white-hat
way.

Backlink Finding Method 5: Outsourcing and Freelancers



Backlink Finding Method 5

Outsourcing and Freelancers

Outsourcing refers to contracting work out to a third party service, such as http://www.odesk.com,
http://www.freelancer.com/, http://www.fiverr.com/ .

How can outsourcing help with backlinks?

It can help in a number of ways, such as:

    1. You can hire certain individuals from places like oDesk who know how to find backlinks, and
       if they don’t - train them how to find backlink opportunities.

    2. You can hire people to build backlinks for you.

    3. You can message various backlink builders (freelancers), and ask to buy their personal lists of
       backlinks. You can normally get them for very cheap and sometimes even free.

    4.   Certain websites allow users to sell backlink packets, such as
         http://www.freelancer.com/marketplace/, see screenshot below for example:




Outsourcing to freelancers can be very cheap - I have never used http://www.freelancer.com/ or
http://www.fiverr.com/ and cannot vouch for them personally, but I hear good things.

I use http://www.odesk.com for my outsourcing needs. I have probably outsourced a thousand man-
hours - on all sorts of projects from web-design, to white-hat link building, like listing my site on
directories.

Outsourcing is cheap, and on average, I only paid $1 per hour.

Outsourcing your Internet Marketing workload is a must-do to increase your productivity, and really
accelerates your online success. I will screen capture a few jobs to highlight its benefit, see below:

Link Building Services


Websites offering Link building Services:       Descriptions:
http://www.wlmarketing.com/                     Best value for money I have found thus far. They
                                                indulge in pretty-much every link building service you
                                                can imagine.
http://www.directorymaximizer.com/              Submits your website to web directories, supposedly
                                                manually, $14 per 100 submissions is ok value but
                                                WLmarketing is cheaper.
http://www.submitedge.com/                      Provides many link building service, from DMOZ listing
                                                to Forum Link Building. The prices are not competitive -
                                                they are over-priced.
http://www.linkvana.com/                        You write unique content, and Linkvana spreads it
                                                across its network of Blogs. I have never used this
                                                service, but the phrase “network of blogs” flirts closely
                                                with the definition of a link-farm, and thus sounds
                                                spammy.
http://www.linkbuildingrobot.com/               It provides social bookmarking and directory link
                                                building. I feel the value for money, is none – the prices
                                                charged are like a billion percent mark-up, aka

Backlink Finding Method 7: Websites that allow user-generated backlinks have common search signals (footprints)



Backlink Finding Method 7

Websites that allow user-generated backlinks have common search
signals (footprints)
Webpages that allow placement of user-generated backlinks have a tendency to have common
search signals (footprints). For example, text on the webpage like “Leave a reply”, “this site uses
keywordluv”, or even in the URL like “add-your-site”.
Combining these search signals into queries, and searching Google can help uncover millions of do-
follow backlinks.




Millions of query variations exist to find backlink opportunities, some examples are:

           "powered by wordpress" + "Name (required)" + "Leave a reply" +” Says:" + “Response” + "This
           site uses KeywordLuv"

           inurl:aspx -intitle:blogengine -"closed" -"you must be logged in" -"please login to leave" +
           "Powered by BlogEngine.NET 1.4.5.0" ("add comment" OR "post a comment" OR "leave a
           comment" OR "add a comment")

           “About the Author:” + "Resource box" -intitle:"about the author" AND -intitle:resource AND -allinurl:resourcebox AND -inurl:author




           “this site uses commentluv”                                       “keyword phrase” inurl:blog site:.edu


           "powered by phpbb" intitle:profile                                intitle:add+url “computers” inurl:add.cgi


           “Do Follow - CommentLuv Enabled”                                  intitle:submit+url “keyword phrase”


           allinurl:add+your+site                                            “Powered by BlogEngine”

Advice: If your not getting the results you want then tweak the search query, example: "powered by wordpress" + "Name
(required)" + "Leave a reply" +” Says:" + “Response” + "This site uses KeywordLuv" returns less results, but they tend to
be more specific and useful for Backlinking, then “this site uses keywordluv”.

Backlink Finding Method 7: “Powered By” searches


Backlink Finding Method 8

“Powered By” searches

More websites then you could visit in a lifetime utilize systems powered by third-parties, such as
Content Management Systems (CMS) like Wordpress and Joomla, or Forums like vBulletin and
PhpBB.

These forum engines, CMS platforms normally place a “Powered by...” in the footer, by default, of
every website that utilizes them. For example, many installations of wordpress have “powered by
wordpress” in the footer.

What does all this “powered by wordpress”, “powered by vBulletin”, etc mean?

It means finding websites that use a particular Powered by system is easy. Just type “powered by
[insert type]” into Google and you will get a big list of websites, predominately powered by
whatever you replaced [insert type] with.

How does Powered by searches benefit your backlink finding efforts?

Certain systems allow for prolific placement of do-follow backlinks, whereas other systems are
stricter. Example, Wordpress blogs implement no-follow for all comment links by default, whereas
most versions of BlogEngine.NET have do-follow turned on by default.

So searching for "Powered by BlogEngine" should unearth tonnes of do-follow link building options,
whereas “powered by wordpress” would return far fewer.

Therefore, in summary, “powered by...” searches are a useful link-finding method to have in your
arsenal.

A list of a few powered by systems:

Backlink Finding Method 8: Link Harvesting Tools...such as: Scrapebox


Backlink Finding Method 9

Link Harvesting Tools...such as: Scrapebox

What are Link Harvesting Tools?

Simple really, they are applications designed to find URL’s to websites, preferable ones that allow
placement of backlinks.

Is link harvesting grey-hat, white-hat or black-hat?

Link Harvesting Tools are grey-hat in my opinion, but in Google’s eyes who knows - a question for
Matt Cutts.

I, Michael Doring, would guess Google views them as black-hat, why do I think that – I cannot see
Google saying the following:

        “Hey go get yourself an automated backlink harvester program that chews up our search
        server bandwidth, and then for good-measure find thousands of sites that allow do-follow
        backlink placement”.

         “Oh and while you’re at it, go to all those sites you found, and create spam-links back to
        your own site to screw our PageRank algorithm, and improve your position in the search
        results”

        “Ok great, you’ve annoyed a bunch of website owner’s with useless contributions just to get
        a spam-link”

        “Hey but let us pour more accolades on you my spammer-friend, you have done us a great
        service by creating a spam epidemic, and now our search results are mostly useless spammy-
        websites, cheers. Now most of our users have gone elsewhere, like to Bing, and we are all out
        of a job, thank you for using link harvesting tools...”

Ok, it might not have been eloquent to use a fictional rant to emphasis my point, but I doubt Google
wants anyone to use link-harvesting tools. So do so out at your own peril, as always this information
is just for entertainment purposes only. However, I personally doubt they can know/penalize you for
using link harvester tools. Placement of spam backlinks however might get you into hot water, but
that is a controversial and highly debated topic, and is beyond the scope of this eBook.

Backlink Finding Method 8: Link Harvesting Tools...such as: Scrapebox


What is Scrapebox?

http://www.scrapebox.com/

Scrapebox is the most popular backlink harvesting application around, and for a good reason – it is
extremely helpful when it comes to finding backlink opportunities.

A discount on Scrapebox is available at http://www.scrapebox.com/cheapskate.




  Warning: Scrapebox is a powerful tool, be careful not to overdo it, and grow your links to fast, as it may
  throw up red flags.

  I understand the counter-argument, the one everyone bellows, which is “if building links too fast could
  cause any trouble with Google, then I could throw up thousands of links overnight to a competitor, and
  get him banned from Google, or thrown-out of the top 10”. A counter-argument of mine: if I were on the
  Google web-spam team, I could write an algorithm as follows: I would have all the top 100 (existing)
  results immune from damage from a sudden, and excessive, amount of links. However if an unknown, or
  site not in the top 100, tried to create a massive amount of links in one go, I would flag them as
  suspicious, and reduce the value of those links for a time, and have follow-up algorithms watch-the site
  for other spam-signals, like are all those links from blog comments, or forum profiles. Anyway, my point is
  that algorithmically a lot can be done, be careful in all that you do, as one day Google might get clever,
  and create a spam-proof algorithm, or at least more-resistant to link-spam.

  Further supporting evidence of my viewpoint, is the video Can I flag spammy links to my site that I didn't
  create? By Matt Cutts that states ‘...we removed the language that it’s impossible for a competitor to hurt
  another competitor and replaced it with language along the lines of its very hard...whenever we write an
  algorithm for example that looks at incoming links we do think about, ok, what if a competitor tried to
  hurt someone else, and we try to put in code to make sure that is not easy to do’

Backlink Finding Method 11: Utilize Free Trial Offers from Backlink Builders


Backlink Finding Method 11

Utilize Free Trial Offers from Backlink Builders

Firstly, http://www.wlmarketing.com/ appears to be the best backlink building service as they
deliver-results, and its cheap compared to its competitors. If you need someone to do white-hat
backlinking (which is all I advocate), like directory submission, choose wlmarketing or outsource.

Note: If you discover a better place then wlmarketing, please let me know at email@michaeldoring.com


However, using other backlink services is a smart-option only when it is free. Save your pennies, and
find the backlink builders who offer a free trial, get the free links by utilizing the trial, and then
cancel your account without signing up to the paid options.

How do you find the places that offer a free trial of their backlinking services?

Try to Google variations of: "free trial" AND backlinks

          A couple I found through Google:

                               http://www.textlinks.com/

Backlink Finding Method 12: How you find EDU & GOV sites that accept backlinks, and my theories

Backlink Finding Method 12

How you find EDU & GOV sites that accept backlinks, and my theories
about their benefit.

EDU & GOV sites that allow user-generated backlinks have common footprints (characteristics), so it
is just a matter of entering the right search queries in Google, or a similar search engine.

How to find .EDU and .GOV sites allow placement of backlinks:

Search Google using the below queries, and remember you can tweak the queries millions of ways to
improve success rate.

 “keyword” site:.edu inurl:blog


 “keyword” AND “powered by wordpress” site:.gov


My theories on the benefit of EDU and GOV backlinks:

Matt Cutts from Google in a YouTube video titled: How do you rate links from sites like Twitter and
Facebook? Says, “Google basically treats links the same...links don’t really matter whether they come
from .edu or .gov and that applies to twitter and facebook aswell”

I agree with Matt Cutts take on .gov and .edu backlinks, so don’t go out of your way, it’s just a myth
that .gov and .edu are heaps better than other links, and if we are wrong – don’t worry, because
there are so many more important SEO things you should be doing. Now seriously, to all you .gov
and .edu backlink evangelist, there are so many more productive SEO things you can be doing, and
thus I encourage you not to stress about the domain type (TLDs) that your backlinks come from.

My nonsensical rant about Forum Profile Backlinks

Please note: this section contains my viewpoint on Forum Profile Backlinks, among other things. It has a list of
dot-points that at first glance might not seem relevant, but bare with me, read them. The summary at the end
will tie them together, I hope 

                         When I viewed http://angelasdiscountmarket.com/ PR in the Google Toolbar it was
                          PR3.

                         When I viewed http://paulsqualitybacklinks.com PR in the Google Toolbar it was 0

                         ‘...we’re evaluating multiple changes that should help drive spam levels even
                          lower...’ 1

                         ‘...While it's true that linking is a significant factor in Google's ranking algorithms,
                          it's just one of many...’ 2

                         ‘...low-quality links rarely stand the test of time, and may disappear from our link
                          graph relatively quickly...’ 2

                         ‘...Interact and contribute on forums and blogs. Just keep in mind to contribute in a
                          positive way, rather than spamming or soliciting for your site...’ 3

                         ‘...There are those who advocate for short-lived, often spammy methods... If your
                          site's visibility in the Google index is important to you it's best to avoid them...’ 3

                         ‘...The moral of this story is that “undetectable” spam sometimes stands out a lot
                          more than you’d think...’ 4

                         ‘...Google has been working on some new algorithms and tools to tackle linkspam
                          and we’d like to ask for linkspam reports from you... If you’d like to tell us about web
                          sites that appear to be using spammy links (e.g. paid links that pass PageRank, blog
                          spammers, guestbook spammers, etc.), here’s how to send us more info...’ 5

                 The vast majority of forum profiles, and threads, have a Google Page Rank of zero.

                 Link juice on a web page is-shared amongst all do-follow links. Therefore, more links
                  on a web page means greater dilution of page juice that flows to each outbound
                  link. In short, avoid getting links from web pages that already have a truckload of
                  do-follows - it is not worth it.

                 Signature based links are primarily self-promoting, and therefore not editorial
                  (merit-based). My prediction, Google will create an algorithm to detect signature-
                  based links. Hell, I am a programmer and could probably write an algorithm given
                  the time and resources. Ok, step away from the shotgun, I was only kidding, I
                  promise not to write an algorithm like-that, but if I create my own search engine
                  one day, all bets are off.

                 Forum profile links tend to have a high-rate of death because moderators find them
                  eventually, or turn-on “nofollow”, etc, so they are not the best for sustainability.

                 When someone gets popular, it screws up naming conventions, when I first started
                  Internet Marketing, and for a year after that, I mistakenly walked around saying
                  “Angela Links”, “Angela Backlinks”... etc, as if she personally owned every site, she
                  listed in her PDFs, my mistake, as I wrongly used it as a catch all phrase for profile
                  backlinking. Furthermore, it turns out copyright does not protect ideas, only their
                  expression, well as far as I know (but as always, I am not a lawyer, so seek legal
                  advice from a lawyer if needed). Therefore, Angela might own the copyright to her
                  body of work (PDFs), but only the expression, she would not own the rights to the
                  third-party domain names she points out, or the idea of profile Backlinking for that
                  matter. Not that she ever said she did, I am just using her branding of Angela
                  Backlinks as an example of a naming convention that confused me at the start.
                  Anyway, so eventually I got to the SIM stage (successful internet marketer) and I
                  learnt about naming conventions, and a revelation was revealed to me, “it’s called
                  Profile Backlinking”... aka “Spam profiles”... come to think of it maybe SIM is
                  actually that game, SIM City... who knows anymore... the point... not sure... just
                  ranting...

    Conclusion:

    I have ranted, and raved, and just listed a bunch of poorly related dot-points, and well, all I have
    to say for a conclusion is tough luck, make up your own-mind, most successful internet
    marketers just research, and then go with whatever gut-feeling they have. So take my dot-point
    research, do your own, and get out there and make up your own mind, to create profile
    backlinks or not is the question, so answer it already.

    Finally, at the very start, I personally dabbled, but I soon read the Google Webmaster Guidelines
    and now lean towards all-white-hat strategies. So I would encourage making the web a better
    place, create great content, use link bait tactics, and focus on long-term link-building strategies
    that Google will love 200 years from now, when your great, great, great grand-kids inherit your
    website.

Information on KeywordLuv and CommentLuv

Firstly, A word on nofollow:

Link spam is an online epidemic, and this epidemic was the motivating factor behind the creation of the rel= “nofollow” attribute for hyperlinks. The
rel=”nofollow” attribute warns search engines that the website, cannot, or does not, vouch for a link.

Nofollow links do not provide any real SEO value, and thus Wordpress and many other blog platforms, and websites, now use rel=”nofollow” to reduce link
spam from user-generated content like profiles, forum posts and comments.

Interesting reads: http://www.mattcutts.com/blog/quick-comment-on-nofollow/ and http://codex.wordpress.org/Nofollow

Dofollow plug-ins, what are they?

Wordpress for example sets all outbound links from users, like comment links, to nofollow by default. Therefore, wordpress plug-ins like Dofollow have
been created for webmasters to reverse the nofollow effect and makes links dofollow.

Info on CommentLuv:
Find info on it at http://comluv.com/ or http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/commentluv/

CommentLuv is a plug-in that Wordpress webmasters can use to reward comment posters. It does this by placing a backlink (normally do-follow) to their
latest blog post at the end of their comment.

What is the difference between CommentLuv members and non-members?

I am no expert when it comes to CommentLuv and consequently you may find a better answer using Google. Nevertheless, here goes nothing, as
far as I know, non-members and members both have a backlink to their latest post displayed under their comment on CommentLuv enabled sites.
That is it for non-members, no other perks. However, members can apparently have up to 10 of their latest posts displayed in a dropdown when
you hover-over the heart symbol. In addition, members can pay to have a default URL used instead of the latest post URL, more details at
http://comluv.com/member/default-links/.

How to Find CommentLuv enabled sites:
Websites that have CommentLuv enabled should have a little CommentLuv banner image and sometimes say, “This site uses CommentLuv...” or “This site
uses KeywordLuv” in the comment writing section.




To find Comment Luv enabled sites you can go-to: http://comluv.com/search-results/ and search.




OR: Use search queries in Google like:

 "This site uses CommentLuv" -intitle:CommentLuv -inurl:CommentLuv

What would I change knowing what I know now?

Preface: I answered this question on the Warrior Forum, and thought I would copy my answer into this eBook. The Warrior Forum post is located at http://www.warriorforum.com/main-internet-
marketing-discussion-forum/387131-what-would-you-do-scenario.html#post3959452. I have duplicated my answer in this eBook because you, my readers, are awesome, thanks for buying this
eBook, and I hope you find my answer helpful. I wish someone told me much earlier some of the ideas below.

Firstly, I could write 500 pages on what I have learnt, and what I would do different. I started out on my internet-marketing journey in Sydney, Balmain on
New Year’s Eve 2009. For months now, I had been planning design of a sports betting application, and had 20 GBs of research, and a 200-page planning
document, but no website.

However, that New Year’s Eve night, over few-to-many, a mate already pursing IM gave me an idea to create a website. So come January 1st 2010 I had
registered my first domain name for internet marketing. It failed. However, a year later come February 2011, I finally started having the elusive $100 days,
and even $300 days, so I quit work, and for 3 months now I have been a full-time IM, and still $100 days, and my online assets are growing.

When I first started I was a perfectionist, I invested too much time into learning, and doing stupid things. So, now that you know the short version to my IM
success, what would I do different, lots, but the standout things I would change are:

        Shed my dreaming (just-learn/talk) habits much earlier, and become a doer.
        I knew the core concepts to start my IM a week-in, but my perfectionist side got the better of me, and I spent months learning theory and taking no
         action. If I could go back, I would keep in mind, the light-switch theory that goes something like ‘you don’t need to know everything about
         electricity to flick a light switch.’ I would take action much sooner.
        I also would have gone part-time at work, and focused on IM. You should only go part-time, or quit work, if you have the financially stability to
         survive without a job, or on part-time wages.
        I would have started a foot-in-the-door, affiliate site at the very start. As affiliate sites, that have some SEO, and/or lots of content, tend start
         earning you $30 a day before long, and when that hits $100, you can say goodbye to your day job, and swear your head-off at your previous
         ungrateful employer and tell him you quit.
        I would program-my-mind to not be a perfectionist, and just do. If I find myself going down the path of perfectionism, I would say to myself just
         one-word, “versioning”, this word reminds me that I can always make it better later, version 2, 3, 4 can be the one that gives me that insane-crazy-

  • 7. About Me About Me I was born in 1988 in, a small country town of Gunnedah, the Koala Capital of the World, Australia. My name is Michael Doring. I stayed in Gunnedah for 14 years, the first 12 were like any normal Childs, and the next two were similar to the 1983 movie ‘The Outsiders’. I dealt drugs, did drugs – committed other crimes, and ran-with the wrong crowd. In that time, I was held hostage at knifepoint, beaten a dozen times, and many other dark things happened - my Aunty passed away, my Dad had a massive heart-attack, and my Mum got cancer. Leap forward to me at 15, I got away from the wrong crowd, and started getting 100% on most of my exams, I guess going to school helped. I eventually had a nervous breakdown, and was committed at the young age of 15 into a Mental Health Institution, for a month, and on medication for a year. In 2004, I then travelled to Sydney, and lived with my older brother Geoff. I excelled at school for the next three years. The majority of classes were Computer-based, and that set the foundation for my future online success. In 2005, I meet my partner, currently of 7 years now, Joyce. I planned to join the SAS, or Commando Unit 4RAR, in the Australian Army, but instead I ended up working for Michelle Patisserie, in the factory, making Pies. In Jan 2008, the company, Datacom, employed me. I worked on several contracts. I was a Technical Support Specialist for BigPond (Call Centre), one of the biggest Internet Service Providers in Australia. At Datacom, I also had a stint as a Team Leader for the ‘Department of the Environment, Water, Heritage and the Arts’ Government information line. Whilst at Datacom, I created several applications that were used by over 300 people, such as my Call Notes application, and a CRM. In addition, I came up with over two dozen innovative initiatives, and won three Innovation Awards. My actions in my Technical Support Specialist position led to Datacom creating a new job role, Innovation Specialist, and they transferred me into that position. I left Datacom around August 2010, and went to work for another computer company called Gizmo, and that ended in 2011 in the middle of February due to downsizing. I was made redundant, and thus, in 2011 February I became a fulltime Internet Marketer. How did I get involved in Internet Marketing? My life as an Internet Entrepreneur started in Balmain, Sydney on New Year’s Eve 2009. I spent the night reigning in the New Year with, my two best mates, Marcel and Rob. Marcel, who was already participating in Internet Marketing - gave me the idea to create a website for my Sports Betting Application. Because earlier, in 2009, I came up with an idea to create an Uber Sports Betting Application, I like sports, and gambling, so it made sense. I spent months researching - I had a 200 page-planning document by the end, and 20 Gigabytes of companion data.

  • 8. About Me Therefore, when New Years Day arrived, January 1st 2010, I purchased my first website related to Internet Marketing, it failed – but it was my first taste, and set in motion my passion for making money online. I received my first payment related to Internet Marketing on 19/07/2010, it took 7 months, but I made $128.15 that month. However, real success struck around January 2011, I started having lots of $100, and even $300 days. I now work from home as fulltime Internet Entrepreneur. I now have my own, SEO business, Website Design business, numerous affiliate websites, and have even started creating software, and products. In short, I have had a life full of ups and downs, but right now – I am rich, working from home, and loving what I do.

  • 9. Introduction Introduction Firstly, thanks for helping with my success – buying this eBook. Therefore, since you have helped me with my success, it is only fair I help you. I hope this eBook repays my debt to you. In addition, if you need help with anything, feel free to PM me on the Warrior Forum (http://www.warriorforum.com/members/michaeldoring.html), or email me at email@michaeldoring.com. I apologize in advance if my writing is unorthodox, and contains grammatical errors – I still have my training wheels on when it comes to writing. Nevertheless, I hope you enjoy this backlink finding resource. Important: When creating backlinks be careful not to break the Google Webmaster Guidelines: http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?answer=35769, I encourage White Hat link building only. Advice: When using many of the backlink finding methods listed, it is best to be running a browser plug-in that can detect no-follow links, PR, etc. Such as:  SearchStatus - http://www.quirk.biz/searchstatus/; (Only works with Firefox)  SEO Quake - http://www.seoquake.com/ (Should work with Safari, Chrome and Firefox) I have fluffed around enough, and I will start discussing, backlinks on the next page – so turnover the page, and I will start the Backlink Hunting escapades.

  • 10. What are Backlinks? What are backlinks? ‘Backlinks are incoming links to a website’ - see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backlink for more details. What is the significance of backlinks? Google’s original name for its search engine was BackRub, ‘because the system checked backlinks to estimate the importance of a site’ 1 1 The search results displayed in Google are ‘based on a… *ranking system called+… PageRank’ The Google Search algorithm (PageRank) has been reported to have ‘over 200 different indicators’ 1 used to position websites in its index. The biggest factor contributing to a websites position in Google’s index is purported to be the backlinks factor, which derives from the ‘analyses of human- generated links’.1 A websites PageRank is apparently the ‘recursive score based on the weighted sum of the PageRank of the pages linking to them’1, it is based on the notion of popularity and relativity. The popularity factor is determined by how many links you get and from whom. Relativity however is about how people link to your site. For example: if a lot of people link to your site with the link text (anchor text) ‘best search engine’ then Google considers your webpage highly relevant to a user searching for ‘best search engine’, and is likely to place you towards the top of the SERPs (Search Engine Results Pages). Obviously, other known and unknown, factors such as webpage content are in the mix (the algorithm), to produce the most relevant results, and weed out spammers. So utilize backlinks, to make your website more visible in search engines, so you get more traffic. Through this increased visibility comes the chance of enormous financial gain, and with a bit of luck it leads to a millionaire lifestyle. In summary, Google became successful because of its innovative way to use backlinks to improve search results, and thus backlinks are very important, so read on to discover how to find backlink opportunities – and just maybe these ideas will help with your success. 1.

If you have to ask, you are in trouble, but Wikipedia is great for those troublesome huh moments, so see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_forum for answers. What are forum profiles? When you register on a forum, you get your own forum profile (membership page). This forum profile is almost like your own mini-blog, it is a web page about you. This forum profile tends to be accessible by the wider forum and internet community. Why do Internet Marketers care about forum profiles? It is another place to put a backlink. Some interesting comments about spam profiles from Google Webmaster Central Blog, spammers ‘...will create accounts and fill their profiles with gibberish... they'll add a sneaky link... Welcome to the world of spam profiles...Some fake profiles are obvious...but we've noticed an increase in savvier spammers that try to use real names and realistic data to sneak in their bad links... This isn't an easy problem to solve...Google is constantly under attack by spammers trying to create fake accounts and generate spam profiles on our sites, and despite all of our efforts some have managed to slip through...’ these comments are from Spam2.0: Fake user accounts and spam profiles (2009, June 26th).

  • 18. Backlink Finding Method 4: Forum Profile Username Trick, or any profile username for that matter Now to the method of finding backlink opportunities by using a profile username: Step 1: Use the following formula in google: niche/category forum +member list e.g. software forum +member list Step 2: The vast majority of the results should be forum member lists Step 3: Open some of the sites in the search results Step 4: Start scanning through the forum usernames for spammy-looking users, and open their profile page by clicking on their username, profile spam is so bad that you tend to find a candidate on the first go. Tip: spammy users tend to have few or no posts, and contain numbers in the username. Note, sometimes you get errors like “Sorry! The administrator has disabled the list of members.” If that happens you can just view forum threads individually to harvest username candidates, or skip that forum all together. Step 5: Look at the users profile signature, homepage details, etc for outbound links that are do- follow. Reminder: If you want to check do-follow status of a link, enable one of the plug-ins mentioned in the introduction such as SEO Quake. Step 6: Now if the profile has an outbound do-follow link generated by the user, then copy the URL and paste it into some kind of tracking document like notepad, excel.

  • 19. Backlink Finding Method 4: Forum Profile Username Trick, or any profile username for that matter Step 7: Almost the same condition as step six needs to be true, (If the profile has an outbound link generated by the user, regardless of nofollow or dofollow) then copy the profile username. Step 8: Paste the profile username into Google, Bing or Yahoo with quotes (or without). Tip: I have noticed Google tends to return vastly more results, than its competitors do, when searching by profile usernames. Tip: In some instances profile pages may not be returned, this depends on the username queried, so you can try improving the query by adding +profile e.g. bob442 +profile Lastly, Step 9: Open all links listed in the search results, the majority should be profile pages on different forums, many allowing backlinks. Copy the URL of any backlink opportunity you might wish to pursue into some kind of tracking sheet. Warning: I do not condone web-spam, or the creation of spam profiles. This information is just for entertainment purposes only. I know I am a hypocrite for showing you how to find them, well that is how I like-it, the hypocrites have the best tea parties anyway. However, seriously, you can use this information for good, when you create outbound links remember to actually provide value to the forum, contribute, answer problems, do it in a white-hat way.

Backlink Finding Method 5: Outsourcing and Freelancers Backlink Finding Method 5 Outsourcing and Freelancers Outsourcing refers to contracting work out to a third party service, such as http://www.odesk.com, http://www.freelancer.com/, http://www.fiverr.com/ . How can outsourcing help with backlinks? It can help in a number of ways, such as: 1. You can hire certain individuals from places like oDesk who know how to find backlinks, and if they don’t - train them how to find backlink opportunities. 2. You can hire people to build backlinks for you. 3. You can message various backlink builders (freelancers), and ask to buy their personal lists of backlinks. You can normally get them for very cheap and sometimes even free. 4. Certain websites allow users to sell backlink packets, such as http://www.freelancer.com/marketplace/, see screenshot below for example: Outsourcing to freelancers can be very cheap - I have never used http://www.freelancer.com/ or http://www.fiverr.com/ and cannot vouch for them personally, but I hear good things. I use http://www.odesk.com for my outsourcing needs. I have probably outsourced a thousand man- hours - on all sorts of projects from web-design, to white-hat link building, like listing my site on directories. Outsourcing is cheap, and on average, I only paid $1 per hour. Outsourcing your Internet Marketing workload is a must-do to increase your productivity, and really accelerates your online success.

The prices are not competitive - they are over-priced. http://www.linkvana.com/ You write unique content, and Linkvana spreads it across its network of Blogs. I have never used this service, but the phrase “network of blogs” flirts closely with the definition of a link-farm, and thus sounds spammy. http://www.linkbuildingrobot.com/ It provides social bookmarking and directory link building. I feel the value for money, is none – the prices charged are like a billion percent mark-up, aka overpriced. http://www.seolace.com/ A link building company that offers many different link- building options, the price is too expensive however. http://ultraseosolutions.com The backlink creation packages available are Blog commenting, Forum Profiles, Article Marketing, and a couple of other options.

  • 23. Backlink Finding Method 7: Websites that allow user-generated backlinks have common search signals (footprints) Backlink Finding Method 7 Websites that allow user-generated backlinks have common search signals (footprints) Webpages that allow placement of user-generated backlinks have a tendency to have common search signals (footprints). For example, text on the webpage like “Leave a reply”, “this site uses keywordluv”, or even in the URL like “add-your-site”. Combining these search signals into queries, and searching Google can help uncover millions of do- follow backlinks. Millions of query variations exist to find backlink opportunities, some examples are: "powered by wordpress" + "Name (required)" + "Leave a reply" +” Says:" + “Response” + "This site uses KeywordLuv" inurl:aspx -intitle:blogengine -"closed" -"you must be logged in" -"please login to leave" + "Powered by BlogEngine.NET 1.4.5.0" ("add comment" OR "post a comment" OR "leave a comment" OR "add a comment") “About the Author:” + "Resource box" -intitle:"about the author" AND -intitle:resource AND -allinurl:resourcebox AND -inurl:author “this site uses commentluv” “keyword phrase” inurl:blog site:.edu "powered by phpbb" intitle:profile intitle:add+url “computers” inurl:add.cgi “Do Follow - CommentLuv Enabled” intitle:submit+url “keyword phrase” allinurl:add+your+site “Powered by BlogEngine” Do you want more resources to help with creating search queries like the above?

  • 24. Backlink Finding Method 7: “Powered By” searches Backlink Finding Method 8 “Powered By” searches More websites then you could visit in a lifetime utilize systems powered by third-parties, such as Content Management Systems (CMS) like Wordpress and Joomla, or Forums like vBulletin and PhpBB. These forum engines, CMS platforms normally place a “Powered by...” in the footer, by default, of every website that utilizes them. For example, many installations of wordpress have “powered by wordpress” in the footer. What does all this “powered by wordpress”, “powered by vBulletin”, etc mean? It means finding websites that use a particular Powered by system is easy. Just type “powered by [insert type]” into Google and you will get a big list of websites, predominately powered by whatever you replaced [insert type] with. How does Powered by searches benefit your backlink finding efforts? Certain systems allow for prolific placement of do-follow backlinks, whereas other systems are stricter. Example, Wordpress blogs implement no-follow for all comment links by default, whereas most versions of BlogEngine.NET have do-follow turned on by default. So searching for "Powered by BlogEngine" should unearth tonnes of do-follow link building options, whereas “powered by wordpress” would return far fewer. Therefore, in summary, “powered by...” searches are a useful link-finding method to have in your arsenal. A list of a few powered by systems: powered by wordpress powered by yabb powered by BlogEngine powered by ip.board powered by Blogsmith powered by invision power board powered by Typepad powered by e-blah powered by scoop powered by xmb powered by PHPbb powered by fudforum powered by vBulletin powered by fluxbb powered by SMF powered by forum software minibb powered by Simple Machines powered by phorum powered by punBB powered by quicksilver forums powered by Tagbox powered by seo-board powered by DRBGuestbook powered by ubb.threads powered by bbPress Do you want more powered by search phrases like the above?

Simple really, they are applications designed to find URL’s to websites, preferable ones that allow placement of backlinks. Is link harvesting grey-hat, white-hat or black-hat? Link Harvesting Tools are grey-hat in my opinion, but in Google’s eyes who knows - a question for Matt Cutts. I, Michael Doring, would guess Google views them as black-hat, why do I think that – I cannot see Google saying the following: “Hey go get yourself an automated backlink harvester program that chews up our search server bandwidth, and then for good-measure find thousands of sites that allow do-follow backlink placement”. “Oh and while you’re at it, go to all those sites you found, and create spam-links back to your own site to screw our PageRank algorithm, and improve your position in the search results” “Ok great, you’ve annoyed a bunch of website owner’s with useless contributions just to get a spam-link” “Hey but let us pour more accolades on you my spammer-friend, you have done us a great service by creating a spam epidemic, and now our search results are mostly useless spammy- websites, cheers. Now most of our users have gone elsewhere, like to Bing, and we are all out of a job, thank you for using link harvesting tools...” Ok, it might not have been eloquent to use a fictional rant to emphasis my point, but I doubt Google wants anyone to use link-harvesting tools. So do so out at your own peril, as always this information is just for entertainment purposes only. However, I personally doubt they can know/penalize you for using link harvester tools. Placement of spam backlinks however might get you into hot water, but that is a controversial and highly debated topic, and is beyond the scope of this eBook.

  • 26. Backlink Finding Method 8: Link Harvesting Tools...such as: Scrapebox What is Scrapebox? http://www.scrapebox.com/ Scrapebox is the most popular backlink harvesting application around, and for a good reason – it is extremely helpful when it comes to finding backlink opportunities. A discount on Scrapebox is available at http://www.scrapebox.com/cheapskate. Warning: Scrapebox is a powerful tool, be careful not to overdo it, and grow your links to fast, as it may throw up red flags. I understand the counter-argument, the one everyone bellows, which is “if building links too fast could cause any trouble with Google, then I could throw up thousands of links overnight to a competitor, and get him banned from Google, or thrown-out of the top 10”. A counter-argument of mine: if I were on the Google web-spam team, I could write an algorithm as follows: I would have all the top 100 (existing) results immune from damage from a sudden, and excessive, amount of links. However if an unknown, or site not in the top 100, tried to create a massive amount of links in one go, I would flag them as suspicious, and reduce the value of those links for a time, and have follow-up algorithms watch-the site for other spam-signals, like are all those links from blog comments, or forum profiles. Anyway, my point is that algorithmically a lot can be done, be careful in all that you do, as one day Google might get clever, and create a spam-proof algorithm, or at least more-resistant to link-spam. Further supporting evidence of my viewpoint, is the video Can I flag spammy links to my site that I didn't create? By Matt Cutts that states ‘...we removed the language that it’s impossible for a competitor to hurt another competitor and replaced it with language along the lines of its very hard...whenever we write an algorithm for example that looks at incoming links we do think about, ok, what if a competitor tried to hurt someone else, and we try to put in code to make sure that is not easy to do’ The must have guide to Finding Backlinks – The Mammoth Approach. www.michaeldoring.com Page 26 of 77

Backlink Finding Method 12 How you find EDU & GOV sites that accept backlinks, and my theories about their benefit. EDU & GOV sites that allow user-generated backlinks have common footprints (characteristics), so it is just a matter of entering the right search queries in Google, or a similar search engine. How to find .EDU and .GOV sites allow placement of backlinks: Search Google using the below queries, and remember you can tweak the queries millions of ways to improve success rate. “keyword” site:.edu inurl:blog “keyword” AND “powered by wordpress” site:.gov My theories on the benefit of EDU and GOV backlinks: Matt Cutts from Google in a YouTube video titled: How do you rate links from sites like Twitter and Facebook? Says, “Google basically treats links the same...links don’t really matter whether they come from .edu or .gov and that applies to twitter and facebook aswell” I agree with Matt Cutts take on .gov and .edu backlinks, so don’t go out of your way, it’s just a myth that .gov and .edu are heaps better than other links, and if we are wrong – don’t worry, because there are so many more important SEO things you should be doing. Now seriously, to all you .gov and .edu backlink evangelist, there are so many more productive SEO things you can be doing, and thus I encourage you not to stress about the domain type (TLDs) that your backlinks come from.

  • 36. Bonus Info: My nonsensical rant about Forum Profile Backlinks  The vast majority of forum profiles, and threads, have a Google Page Rank of zero.  Link juice on a web page is-shared amongst all do-follow links. Therefore, more links on a web page means greater dilution of page juice that flows to each outbound link. In short, avoid getting links from web pages that already have a truckload of do-follows - it is not worth it.  Signature based links are primarily self-promoting, and therefore not editorial (merit-based). My prediction, Google will create an algorithm to detect signature- based links. Hell, I am a programmer and could probably write an algorithm given the time and resources. Ok, step away from the shotgun, I was only kidding, I promise not to write an algorithm like-that, but if I create my own search engine one day, all bets are off.  Forum profile links tend to have a high-rate of death because moderators find them eventually, or turn-on “nofollow”, etc, so they are not the best for sustainability.  When someone gets popular, it screws up naming conventions, when I first started Internet Marketing, and for a year after that, I mistakenly walked around saying “Angela Links”, “Angela Backlinks”... etc, as if she personally owned every site, she listed in her PDFs, my mistake, as I wrongly used it as a catch all phrase for profile backlinking. Furthermore, it turns out copyright does not protect ideas, only their expression, well as far as I know (but as always, I am not a lawyer, so seek legal advice from a lawyer if needed). Therefore, Angela might own the copyright to her body of work (PDFs), but only the expression, she would not own the rights to the third-party domain names she points out, or the idea of profile Backlinking for that matter. Not that she ever said she did, I am just using her branding of Angela Backlinks as an example of a naming convention that confused me at the start. Anyway, so eventually I got to the SIM stage (successful internet marketer) and I learnt about naming conventions, and a revelation was revealed to me, “it’s called Profile Backlinking”... aka “Spam profiles”... come to think of it maybe SIM is actually that game, SIM City... who knows anymore... the point... not sure... just ranting... Conclusion: I have ranted, and raved, and just listed a bunch of poorly related dot-points, and well, all I have to say for a conclusion is tough luck, make up your own-mind, most successful internet marketers just research, and then go with whatever gut-feeling they have. So take my dot-point research, do your own, and get out there and make up your own mind, to create profile backlinks or not is the question, so answer it already. Finally, at the very start, I personally dabbled, but I soon read the Google Webmaster Guidelines and now lean towards all-white-hat strategies. So I would encourage making the web a better place, create great content, use link bait tactics, and focus on long-term link-building strategies that Google will love 200 years from now, when your great, great, great grand-kids inherit your website.

  • 37. Bonus Info: Information on KeywordLuv and CommentLuv Bonus Info Information on KeywordLuv and CommentLuv Firstly, A word on nofollow: Link spam is an online epidemic, and this epidemic was the motivating factor behind the creation of the rel= “nofollow” attribute for hyperlinks. The rel=”nofollow” attribute warns search engines that the website, cannot, or does not, vouch for a link. Nofollow links do not provide any real SEO value, and thus Wordpress and many other blog platforms, and websites, now use rel=”nofollow” to reduce link spam from user-generated content like profiles, forum posts and comments. Interesting reads: http://www.mattcutts.com/blog/quick-comment-on-nofollow/ and http://codex.wordpress.org/Nofollow Dofollow plug-ins, what are they? Wordpress for example sets all outbound links from users, like comment links, to nofollow by default. Therefore, wordpress plug-ins like Dofollow have been created for webmasters to reverse the nofollow effect and makes links dofollow. Info on CommentLuv: Find info on it at http://comluv.com/ or http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/commentluv/ CommentLuv is a plug-in that Wordpress webmasters can use to reward comment posters. It does this by placing a backlink (normally do-follow) to their latest blog post at the end of their comment.

  • 39. Bonus Info: Information on KeywordLuv and CommentLuv What is the difference between CommentLuv members and non-members? I am no expert when it comes to CommentLuv and consequently you may find a better answer using Google. Nevertheless, here goes nothing, as far as I know, non-members and members both have a backlink to their latest post displayed under their comment on CommentLuv enabled sites. That is it for non-members, no other perks. However, members can apparently have up to 10 of their latest posts displayed in a dropdown when you hover-over the heart symbol. In addition, members can pay to have a default URL used instead of the latest post URL, more details at http://comluv.com/member/default-links/. How to Find CommentLuv enabled sites: Websites that have CommentLuv enabled should have a little CommentLuv banner image and sometimes say, “This site uses CommentLuv...” or “This site uses KeywordLuv” in the comment writing section. To find Comment Luv enabled sites you can go-to: http://comluv.com/search-results/ and search. OR: Use search queries in Google like: "This site uses CommentLuv" -intitle:CommentLuv -inurl:CommentLuv The must have guide to Finding Backlinks – The Mammoth Approach. www.michaeldoring.com Page 39 of 77

  • 60. Bonus Info: What would I change knowing what I know now? Bonus Info What would I change knowing what I know now? Preface: I answered this question on the Warrior Forum, and thought I would copy my answer into this eBook. The Warrior Forum post is located at http://www.warriorforum.com/main-internet- marketing-discussion-forum/387131-what-would-you-do-scenario.html#post3959452. I have duplicated my answer in this eBook because you, my readers, are awesome, thanks for buying this eBook, and I hope you find my answer helpful. I wish someone told me much earlier some of the ideas below. Firstly, I could write 500 pages on what I have learnt, and what I would do different. I started out on my internet-marketing journey in Sydney, Balmain on New Year’s Eve 2009. For months now, I had been planning design of a sports betting application, and had 20 GBs of research, and a 200-page planning document, but no website. However, that New Year’s Eve night, over few-to-many, a mate already pursing IM gave me an idea to create a website. So come January 1st 2010 I had registered my first domain name for internet marketing. It failed. However, a year later come February 2011, I finally started having the elusive $100 days, and even $300 days, so I quit work, and for 3 months now I have been a full-time IM, and still $100 days, and my online assets are growing. When I first started I was a perfectionist, I invested too much time into learning, and doing stupid things. So, now that you know the short version to my IM success, what would I do different, lots, but the standout things I would change are:  Shed my dreaming (just-learn/talk) habits much earlier, and become a doer.  I knew the core concepts to start my IM a week-in, but my perfectionist side got the better of me, and I spent months learning theory and taking no action. If I could go back, I would keep in mind, the light-switch theory that goes something like ‘you don’t need to know everything about electricity to flick a light switch.’ I would take action much sooner.  I also would have gone part-time at work, and focused on IM. You should only go part-time, or quit work, if you have the financially stability to survive without a job, or on part-time wages.  I would have started a foot-in-the-door, affiliate site at the very start. As affiliate sites, that have some SEO, and/or lots of content, tend start earning you $30 a day before long, and when that hits $100, you can say goodbye to your day job, and swear your head-off at your previous ungrateful employer and tell him you quit.  I would program-my-mind to not be a perfectionist, and just do. If I find myself going down the path of perfectionism, I would say to myself just one-word, “versioning”, this word reminds me that I can always make it better later, version 2, 3, 4 can be the one that gives me that insane-crazy- The must have guide to Finding Backlinks – The Mammoth Approach. www.michaeldoring.com Page 60 of 77
