Thanks Nick,

I kind of have an approach I use. I’m still fine tuning it. I do a search on PRPowershot. I then filter them from highest trust flow to lowest. I just use this number as it seems most sights I’m interest in seem to have higher trust flow numbers. I then check any site I like the look of based on number of back links. I then…[Read more]

Thanks Dennis, I paid more than I wanted but I wanted to get my first site under my belt. I’ll be a bit more stingy with my next purchase.

Thanks Jason. Probably do that int eh future. What I do now is pick a price I’m comfortable with, place that as my top and then see what happens.

Just won my first domain. I now have a PBN of 1. Wooo Hooo, now let’s see if it’s legit.

They were mostly PR0, PR1 and PR2’s. I bid less than $30 on each of them. Just kind of experimenting and I wasn’t home for the end of the auctions or I may have put in another bid. They all sold for exactly one bid past my high bid.

I guess I’m doing something right. I’ve been outbid on every site I showed interest in.

Onward.

Thanks Eliza. I think I’ve learned enough to tell if the back links look natural so I feel pretty confident there. As for the first part, back links vs IP addresses, do you have a ratio you like, 10 to 1, 100 to 1. One of my problems is I’m a bit of a number lover. I love having a metric to measure things to. It got me through 30 years as an Air…[Read more]

One of the things I’m trying to figure out is where the PR0 and PR1’s are that are really PR3 or 4’s. I’m just trying to figure out what other metrics to look at that would be an indicator. Someone in a post said they like the MozRank to be higher than the PR number. Above Jason says he likes the PA and DA (those ar both Moz rankings,…[Read more]

See the reason I’m unsure about this is I know I have no idea what I’m doing when buying expiring domains. All these numbers and I think I know what they mean but when I start looking at them my level of confidence dwindles.

So I’m looking at a .org site with numbers like these PR 0 (can’t rely on this number, I remember that), trust flow 23,…[Read more]

Isn’t the on-page SEO already done on SLL sites?  Please tell me yes, I don’t want to do anything to 270,000 posts.

Yes, on-page SEO is taken care of for you

We’ve done this too, with a slightly different approach.  Instead of trying to convince them to hire you for classic SEO or having to deal with the small scale local business themselves, we pitch it as a value up-sell corporate can use for their current/potential franchisees

Andrew, cool video, thanks for taking the time to do that.

But I am still confused.  For a state-wide site, is it $197 one time or $197 monthly?  In reading elsewhere in the forum this morning, it appears Jake had mentioned that SERPlandlord was going to necessarily be on a back burner for awhile while some of the SEMeasy tasks are c…

I like the  idea of booths at local conferences or shows. Since I focus mainly on local SEO (county wide) I could see setting up booth at say the local home and garden show. You can have already ranked several sites for various home and garden niches (concrete, kitchen makeovers, patios. etc.) and try to sell them right there. They walk out of…[Read more]
