Online SEO Tools for Links, Keywords and Rank Tracking

Suggestion #1

The problem here is that you have created new sites which on day one have zero authority, zero traffic and do not rank on the serps. Backlinks from such sites are weak.... It will take time for you to grow your tier 1 sites which done correctly over time will provide beneficial link juice... One approach to strengthening your tier 1 sites is to create tier 2 sites which provide backlinks to tier 1 overtime as well as sending other signals e.g. social shares, bookmarks etc... and again rinsed and repeated with tier 2 and perhaps tier 3 level.

With that said done wrong with G detecting unnatural link building and you'll find such links will be discounted or worse could contribute to a penalty e.g. penguin....

The best links you can get are from well established sites which are ranking, have traffic and possess a level of authority/trust - ideally on the home page.... My recommended approach with getting such links is either through guest posting or that you develop a PBN with purchasing old domains which have great metrics plus with resurrected content and valuable backlinks which for sure provide much more link juice than what you are doing currently...

How Google Defines a Paid Link: Link Building Strategy

With PBNs you are looking for websites/domains for sale which already have what you are stating e.g. great quality backlinks, gets traffic and has authority/ranking indicators e.g. MOZ DA/PA, Majestic CF/TF are some third party metrics which can help with assessing a domain for sale... A few years ago PR would of been relevant - but its no longer updated and has not been for a few years now so dont bother with that...

PBNs is similar to what you did above with web 2.0 like Blogspot and Wordpress, but you've to grab the customize domain for your PBNs blog.

Suggestion #2

Yes of course, free blogs are effective when you are publishing fresh and unique content weekly or daily basis and count as back link for website.

Any backlink that is not on a spammy site is going to help. Creating your own sub-domains and backlinking to the main domain isn't going to hurt but it sure isn't going to help that much, especially if they are brand new and that's what is sounds like. You want backlinks from established trustworthy websites. That's what is going to help you the most. Creating blogs on free web 2.0's or any other place isn't going to help as much as if you put the effort into getting 1 decent quality backlink from an established blog.

The key is not to expect to dump awful content onto a new sub-domain site and rank or get a decent link. Same with everything online now - build quality and nurture it.

How To Rank Your Content Even With Lesser Links Pointing To Your Site 

It works but it should be used in conjunction with other types of links. You should really test those thins instead of asking it here. A lot of people have a lot of opinions and I had a 100 times to do something that other people said it can't be done. It's all up to you, use other people info. just for directions but not as a guide. I use free blogs as important part of my LB efforts but I do it for my type of promotion, for someone else it maybe won't be so effective. I create daily 30-50 new blogs and promote 1 web 2.0 site with 50-100 links from free blogs. I don't know why you say blogger.com may be less effective than example.com because I see it completely the opposite. Blogger already has some authority where example.com is new domain that has no authority at all. 

I use free blogs to rank I use free blogs to link. You should really test it and see the results and take conclusions from those results. I have analyzed some domains and looked at the type/structure of backlinks some sites have. I saw some sites rank with 90% using just directories (and people say that those links are useless) I saw some sites rank using only a lot of blogger and WordPress blogs for backlinks. I saw people rank very good using mainly hi5 profiles backlinks and I saw people ranking with only couple of blog farms. Just try something and take notes  And remember, you can make 10000 backlinks but if you target wrong keyword phrases and too competitive area than you will fail. So work smarter not harder  But you do need to work. 

And one last note that I always tell, if it's for authority site build links slowly and mix a lot of types(sources) of links.

SEO Tips: One Page Two Or More Links Pointing To The Same URL

Personal Tip: They are effective. I'm trying to make as much as i can from them.

Are there any other problems I'm overlooking? I get the feeling i am missing something major here and i hope that some one considerably cleverer than me can let me know in the comments.

How To Rank Your Website Without Using Spammy Techniques

Matt Cutts assures webmasters that the good guys will stand a chance as long as they don’t spam, and they continue to create compelling, unique content that users will want to link to. In Matt’s own words, he says that yes “the good guys do have a chance, and we [Google] try hard to make sure the good guys stand a chance”.

The fact of the matter is that Google is getting better at fighting spam. The “techniques” that are abused are being continuously minimized, and it’s becoming harder and harder to spam on Google. Google continues to preach the same values as always, make sure you have great user experience and come up with something compelling so that people want to link to you because of your fantastic website.

Matt expresses that, “yes it can take longer to build those links that are harder to get, but they are more likely to stand the test of time”. Make sure that you don’t start out by spamming or doing any black hat SEO tips and tricks because those techniques are going to be less likely to work going forward. Matt suggest putting the effort into getting those hard links and not on fast, easy, spammy black hat links.

What To Ask an SEO Company

Matt Cutts finishes the video by giving some suggestions of what someone should ask when hiring an SEO company. Matt’s suggestions are:

• Do some research on the search engine optimization company.
• Ask the SEO company exactly what they are going to do.

Matt also adds some warning signs you should look for in prospecting search engine optimization company’s answers. If you receive any of the following answers you should run away screaming:

• The SEO company knows Matt Cutts personally.
• They have a secret “in” with Google’s web spam team.
• They don’t tell you what they are going to do in clear terms that make sense.
• Their answers make you feel uneasy.

Being a victim of bad SEO strategies is not a laughing matter, it could result to penalties and loss in ranking that you spent a lot of time and money to gain. However, always keep in mind that Google is making it a small world for spammers to live in since they always see to it that offenders are being penalized. No matter what kind of black-hat techniques or other kind of inappropriate tricks some may use to rank higher, Google will always find a way to stop such wrong actions.

Just like what Cutts said in the video, yes, good guys do stand a chance to rank higher and the advice he left is the same as what he said in all the previous videos wherein the primary purpose of these website owners should always be to give great user experience. Make your webpage exciting by incorporating Social Media like Facebook, Pinterest, and Twitter and utilize the power of graphics and videos to liven up the page. Aside from these tools, coming up with compelling stories and interesting contents will surely let people link to your site in return. There is no need to use spammy links if you have great, unique and high-quality content. Google is always willing to help as long as one is also willing to follow and heed the guidelines.
