Making big $$$ with Links

Over the last few month I was testing out some of the big link selling sites. I wanted to know how much they pay you, in this case me, and how easy it is to get your links sold out.

First of all, I cut it down. I don’t like those freakin’ big postings like Eli does it, I like informations compressed into little pieces. so lets start.

Hi guys!

Sorry I haven’t had a chance to post lately. I got some great posts coming up, I just haven’t had a chance to sit down with ‘em yet. I was going to write today but alas…I didn’t

So to hold you over here’s a quick five minute black hat tip

Finding Link Injection Possibilities With Versions & Changes Logs

Search for popular file names that include version update information and changes logs that are typically found in downloadable website scripts.

Let’s do one more post about content. First, consider Google’s Webmaster Blog’s post dispelling common duplicate content myths as a prerequisite read. Do I always trust what Google’s public relations tells me? Absolutely not, but it does confirm my own long standing protests against people who perpetuated the paranoia about duplicate content. So it makes a good point of reference.

The most common myth ensue with the paranoia is, “anytime I use content that is published somewhere else, I am sure to fall victim to duplicate content penalties.” This of course is bunk because for any specific terms related to an article you can show me I can find you 9 other sites that ranks for its terms that aren’t necessarily supplemental and full of penalties. However there is no doubt that there really is a duplicate content penalty. So we’ll discuss ways around it. One of my favorite parroted phrases is, “It’s not what content you use. It’s how you use it.” So we’ll start with formatting.

Alright fine. I’m going to call uncle on this one. With my last Black Hole SEO post I talked about Desert Scraping. Now understand, I usually change up my techniques and remove a spin or two before I make them public as to not hurt my own use of it. However on this one, in the process, I totally dumbed it down. Upon retrospect it definitely doesn’t qualify as a Black Hole SEO technique, more like a general article, and yet no one called me on it! Com’n guys you’re starting to slip. Enough of this common sense shit, lets do some real black hat. So the deal is I’m going to talk about desert scraping one more time and this time just be perfectly candid and disclose the actual spin I use on the technique.

In my introduction post to Black Hole SEO I hinted that I was going to talk about how to get “unique authoritative content.” I realize that sounds like an oxymoron. If content is authoritative than that means it must be proven to work well in the search engines. Yet if the content is unique than it can’t exist in the search engines. Kind of a nasty catch-22. So how is unique authoritative content even possible? Well to put it simply, content can be dropped from the search engines’ index.
