Nick,

I’m using Adsense Now with 3 ads on page.

Top left, Middle middle, bottom right

I’m using the large 336×280 Google will put a smaller or text ad in place if they feel is best.

Yes I’ve shut off Adsense showing ads to visitor based on their browsing, I want the ads to be based on the site I’ve built.

Yes I use images in the…[Read more]

I would edit your robots.txt file while you are waiting.

Here’s a great article explaining it:

http://www.shoutmeloud.com/what-is-robots-txt-file-and-how-to-optimize-for-wordpress-blogs.html

Disallow: /wp-content/plugins/semeasy/ would take care of it.

I’m not sure if it’s possible…. not sure why you would want to test localhost?

I’d suggest testing a live site and you can shut off/disable anytime so there’s no worry.

Welcome Bob,

Yes I agree with Sam3 you may not need a PBN but what I do with each video is “draw a picture” with some notes and file it for each video.

As you go through other videos you’ll start to see your pictures/notes connect to each other.

One note when building a PBN you’re looking for aged domains that don’t have spammy…[Read more]

Don’t know if this is the answer you are looking for but here goes:

My first thought/goal with a Shaker site is to get in the to 10 to be on the first page of the SERP. Top 5 is best!

Building sites with 30k to 180k pages puts the odds in our favor this will happen many times over across the country BUT not in every city.

So will you be…[Read more]

Yes VPS with SSD drives will improve performance.

So will Cloudflare

Have you run your website through Google Pagespeed BEFORE you added DA. 

Be sure to get a good Google Pagespeed before adding DA.

Some plugins to add/look at:

wp super cache

autoptimize
page-speed
eliminate-render-blocking-javascript

bwp-minify

These…[Read more]

Clint,

I’ll backup what the others say and don’t go “cheap” on hosting if you are planning to build 30k sites.

Why do all the work and find your shared hosting can’t handle it.

Caution when you hear people saying they are using shared hosting, they probably aren’t getting a lot of traffic or income!

With the newest version of SerpShaker you can use {city} for the title but then add your keywords and {city} to the site title and meta.

I’ve not confirmed but heard of over optimization penalties if your domain, url structure, keywords, title etc.. are all optimized…others may disagree.

I think a non or partial EMD domain s…[Read more]

@atatum are you part of the SerpShaker VIP group?

Andreas posted a video for the VIP group to do some advanced SILOing with SerpShaker.

He shows how to pre-create 50 pages, one per state.

Then setup categories per state

Finally use {city} in the title so you end up getting sites like:

yourdomain.com/state/city 

All interlinked…[Read more]

Are you building a local SEO site? 

If yes, pick one of the KW phrases and yes use that as the Title,url, H2, H3, bolded in your content and linked out.

Also integrate the other keywords, use them in an H2 or H3 to start a paragraph. 

Basically on page SEO and others can chime in.

IF you are building a nationwide or state di…[Read more]

Correct Amazon and some Clickbank sites won’t allow you to iframe/overlay the sites.

BUT you could create a landing page that takes to the affiliate page, one more click but still works.

FYI: my experience is you make more $$ with local clients but over time you can build hundreds of affiliate sites to balance them out.

Site looks good but I noticed a very long load time, Google PageSpeed shows 65 out of 100.

Not sure if you can use CloudFlare in AU?

Downsize the home page images to load faster and not overtake the entire home page, let people see some text or nav bar when the home page loads.

When I did a site: there are a lot of number pages like…[Read more]

Obviously if DA caused problems or de-indexing there wouldn’t be so many of us using it so NO there’s no problem.

A more proper answer is Google indexes you page, content, keywords but really has no idea there’s an iframe overlaying another website to this page/site.

Some ask “what about a manual review” … yes you risk being de-indexed but…[Read more]

It’s also standard in the 2015 theme FYI

Dave,

Kevin is correct but let’s big picture

1st SerpSpike or SerpShaker is a way to build state, nationwide or worldwide directory sites to get index and generate lots of traffic and hits.

2nd for this to work you must pick the right keywords and supporting LSI keywords. Sometimes you get it the first time, sometimes it takes building a…[Read more]

Crazy this was just discussed on the SEO show today.

I use and recommend http://www.myseotool.com/

Track keywords, Analytics, Webmaster tools, Facebook, LinkedIn, Google+, YourTube and Adwords in one dashboard and auto send reports to clients!

This is much more than keyword tracking

I’ve created a free account at Asana to test… I’ve heard about this service by many others so it must be a sign!

I searched the forum post suggested above but couldn’t find the link.

I suspect the “easy” way to do this is with Excel, then create a row of check list buttons and save one for each project?

IA can be used on any website to help it rank. 

I’ve used it on long established sites that need a boost and a video added to the posts.

DA can overlay and/or allow you to rent pages from an existing site or say a local site you build with good SEO.

YES there’s a lot of talk using IA and DA on SerpShaker sites but that’s not required.

I’d do it sooner than later.. in my opinion.

Why wait till your sites are going down and/or your host is shutting you off because of too much traffic and the bots are too much.

I understand people want to start with a small budget sometimes but a $50 a month VPS is a great place to start…

there are some cheaper out there but it…[Read more]
