Prerequisites:
Have a private blog network that you own. It doesn’t have to be very large and it can be all on free sub-domains if you want to save money. 5-10 blogs is enough in most situations.
Create a free Blogger blog for each site that you market for.
Create a Link Market account for each Blogger blog.
Join a couple forums related to your niche.
Scrape blog posts related to your niche that you can MANUALLY comment on.

Tools:
AMR
Sick Submitter
Coach Tyler’s Duplicate Content Checker or another duplicate checker
Get Article
Captcha Sniper or other captcha solver
Scrapebox
Some kind of article spinner
Article Submission Helper (Free Tool – Optional)
AutoBlog Samurai (Optional)

Day 1:
Scrape an article with Get Article. Rewrite this article to at least 40% unique per one word phrase, 60% unique per two word phrase, and 80% unique per three word phrase using Coach Tyler’s Duplicate Content Checker (Free Tool). Also, rewrite the title and write a summary and resource box for the content link wheel and the bulk article submission in the following days. Now that it is rewritten, you have to MANUALLY spin the article with two variations on the sentence level to have 3 sentence spins available. Don’t waste your time with synonym replacement in the article body. Manually spin the title three times as well. Also, do synonym spinning on the summary, title, and two resource boxes. Now you have your prepared article for the cycle.

Day 2:
Content Link Wheel:
You are going to submit spun versions of the article to the best article directories as well as some auto approve directories to make a content link wheel. You don’t need a lot of sites to do this with and you can use Article Submission Helper (Free Tool) to make this faster. I only use around 20-30 sites. Your resource box should have one link to the money site and the other link will be pointing to the last auto approved submission. Start the link wheel with the Blogger because you have full access to edit this article, which will be needed to complete the link wheel.

Example – Post to Blogger, Post to EZA with link back to Blogger blog, post to Articles Base with link back to Blogger, post to Idea Marketers with link back to Blogger, post to Ezine Mark with link back to Idea Marketers, go back and edit the Blogger post and link it to the Idea Marketers post.

Bulk Article Submission:
Don’t overdo the article submissions. If you get between 50-100 articles approved that is just fine. Too many will look spammy and take down the effectiveness of the submission. Use AMR or another bulk submitter to submit the prepared article from Day 1 to sites. Your resource box should have two links to the money site or if you only have one keyword, one link to the money site and the other link will point to random articles from a previous cycle of article submissions.

Day 3:
Document Submissions:
Make a PDF and a Powerpoint of a spun version of the prepared article. On each page there should be a raw link to the money site. This gives link variety and looks natural. Submit the documents to the top document sharing sites. I use between 10-15 sites. Collect all links. Create an RSS Feed with the list with Sick Submitter. Submit the feed to RSS directories with Sick Submitter.

Forum Profiles:
Create forum profiles with Sick Submitter. Anything under 100 is safe. This is my method: For the first 10 cycles, I create around 100 with various platforms. After cycle 10, I only create profiles on vBulletin sites (around 5-10 per cycle) and utilize the Recent Profile Visitors widget to get thousands of internal backlinks to the profile to make the profiles have authority.

Day 4:
Submit the forum profiles to BulkPing.com, PingDevice.com, and whatever other bulk ping site that you want to submit to. If you opt to do my method with forum profiles, get the internal links to the profile today. I use Robotsoft Mouse Recorder to automate the process easily. Create a blog post on the Blogger blog with raw links to the forum profiles. Ping the post with Ping-O-Matic or another pinging service. OPTIONAL – Submit the post to Social Monkee to get it bookmarked on 25 sites.

Day 5:
Update all the accepted article from the link wheel and the bulk submission. Use a tool like Sick Link Checker to verify that your site’s backlink is on the article page, as some sites will approve your article and remove your link, especially with AMR. Once you have that completed list, submit the list to BulkPing.com and PingDevice.com. Use Scrapebox to comment on thousands of auto approve blog posts with the links pointing to random articles. DON’T USE SCRAPEBOX TO BACKLINK TO YOUR SITE.

Day 6:
With the finalized list of articles that you created yesterday, bookmark the articles with Sick Submitter, or another bookmarking tool like BMD or AutoPligg. Get all the bookmarks and submit them to BulkPing.com and PingDevice.com.

Day 7:
Create a blog post on the Blogger blog with raw links to the finalized articles that you found on Day 5. Ping the post with Ping-O-Matic and submit it to Social Monkee if you want it bookmarked for free. Get on Link Market and accept every single link exchange request that you get for the Blogger blog.

Daily:
MANUALLY comment on the blog posts related to your niche. My method is to comment on 3-4 a day. Easy and works great if you know some platforms that are auto approve and not spammed. Also, post on the forums related to your niche daily with your backlink in your signature. Make smart posts and actually contribute to the community unless you want to continually get banned for spamming.

Behind the scenes:
You should collect every single link that you create. With those, you will work on indexing every single link. With your private blog network: You will need a source of original content and a lot of it. If you are creative and have a day or so to search, it won’t be a problem. I found over 20 thousands unpublished articles in a couple hours. Using AutoBlog Samurai, or manually if you wish, schedule posts about every 3-5 hours with around 5 backlinks per article. I just go in and randomly add the link to certain phrases. Do this constantly and your links will index nicely. However, adding some more power doesn’t hurt! With Status.Net Sites: You can join a few status.net sites and use these sites for indexing purposes. All you have to do is create a macro (or if you are like me you can just use Robotsoft Mouse Recorder to automate this) and submit links to the sites between non-link posts to avoid getting banned for spam.

After you are done with a cycle, just continue with another one. This has been proven to be very effective for me and especially my SEO clients, which I obviously work harder for. My client has been in the top 5 for a while now using this method and the keyword gets 165,000 searches on exact match every month.

Today, i’m going to explain in details what I did to rank a customer under hard circumstances.

Hard circumstances = a deadline of a month with a medium difficiculty keyword.

(NOTE : I did not guarantee any result but an improvement)
(NOTE 2 : There is a quick summary at the bottom)
(NOTE 3 : I did not use any link indexing process !)

I started the 4th of january on that keyword where my customer was around 300th.

A week ago, he was on the first page dancing between 10th and 5th.

Today he is 3rd and traffic is flooding his website !!

I used a method that i call relative SEO which consist in doing a full evaluation of the 1st of a query including on site factors and backlinks analysis. Then the purpose is to do better on most of the point

Here is what I did :

1) Page Speed Optimisation of the whole website (90/100) main competitor has 85/100
Page Speed = Reduce Images Size, add a caching system (gzip), differ JS code, add an expiration time to web elements through htacess and so on.

2) Define Keywords variance for the inner page of the KW. This point consist in defining several related keywords to use in the main content, to avoid a stupid meanless text with a stupid occurency of the same keyword especially for an ecommerce website.

3) Images Titles – ALt : relevant with the content of the image + keyword and sitemap regeneration

4) CRITICAL POINT : If you guys have to remember something from this thread it is this pecualiar aspect :

NET LINKING IS CRITICAL : Net linking is how your inner pages are linked together with a title.

When i study a website, i see too much people who are not even using title neither alt on their “a href” tag. Well this is an epic mistake !

As a matter of fact, for another website, i noticed that i ranked 9th for keyword (hosting related so kindda hard) and i didn’t even mention it on the whole website, not even once ! Once i looked further over it, i noticed that i used it in all a href title which target the inner page ranked, instead of the real keyword i was targetting.

So, i have added a footer, with most of the links of the website with the keyword in titles and a variance in alt.

And i have added the critical KW on the main menu. It wasn’t relevant at the time i added it (valentines related) but it was good for SEO.

5) Now that all the modifications has been made, i came into the fast indexing process.
- 3k backlinks : WhoIs and How much worth your website
- 15k Approuved Trackbacks links towards all most important inner page.

6) Then, the hard backlinking kicks in ! 

I studied the main competitors backlinks with spyglass, and took the ones i could, like manual commenting in web 2.0 properties (1 or 2 ) and so on.

I made 3 blog network blast.

The first was done within 1 day over 130 blogs, with several keywords and inner page.
The 2nd was dripped for one week and the 3rd for 2 weeks after the 2nd

I created manually a few (a dozen) web 2.0 properties on squiddo, wordpress, tumblr, and blogger. All crappily spinned with TBS

I have ordered a custom bot which worked for 2 days, to steal wikispace links. (they changed their system and i’m screwed)

I have created manually a few edu profiles, and 2 .edu blog. (i don’t believe in edu.xxx)

I took the first blog network blast, the web 2.0 properties, and the manual .edu links and the URLs of the website; I place them all in scrapebox without forgetting to associate and lock keywords to each links produced (hard work here for 200 links)

To lock a keyword for an URL in SB you do this : “http://website.com {keywords1|keywords2}” without “”

Then i blast the hell out of it on huge .edu, .gov, ******** and even crappy AA with high OBL. (around 500k)

Result is immediate : 66th the next day and 3 days later 15th.

The hard work was done, then i use AMR to produce articles links and wiki links with extremephp bot toward all the URL mentionned above and with the blog network dripping process, i ended up dancing for 2 weeks in the first page.

After that, i daily produced EDU, .gov blog comments with low success rate straightly to inner page of the money site.

The dance was keep going. Well, here is another thing i learned with another website. Social Bookmarking is working greatly to fix google dance.

So i ordered a 1k package of social bookmarks here :
http://www.blackhatworld.com/blackha…k-urls-ok.html

I ordered it 5 days ago, delivered a few hours later and the next day i was 4th (never reached that place before) and now i’m 3rd.

For the lazy ones here is the summary :

1) Do not forget on site seo (page speed, titles, a href titles, relevant content even for ecommerce website, net linking)
2) I was lucky enough to get a customer with a low bounce rate (30%)
3) Fast indexing process : whois and trackbacks
4) then diversify your backlinks here it is : blog network, scrapebox (gov, edu, do follow, nofollow, high PR, no PR, low OBL, high OBL), wiki links, web 2.0 properties toward several platforms, edu profiles, edu blog, manual commenting, social bookmarking, and stealth of wikispace links 

Special Thanks to

ExtremePHP : Wiki Bot just Awesome
MandLoys : Great SB service ! Keep it on !
PatMiller : Not easy everyday but thanks a lot for your Bot !
IamNRE : I found the lead thanks to you 
Thanks for the people who shared list even crappy ones but bigger thanks for the good ones

My name is Eric Benson. I am quite new to this forum and I want to share something that might be of help to you. I do SEO for my micro niche sites and I immediately get results by following these steps.

Step 1:

I do OnPage SEO for my site(meta, h1, h2, etc..). Then I put 2-3 400-500 words original articles/content to my site. Then I ping it and use indexers for search engines to crawl my site. I wait until my site will be indexed before I proceed to Step 2.

Step 2:

I build high PR backlinks going to my site with anchor text as the keyword I am trying to rank. Here are sample High PR links, PR 5-6:

Step 3:

Spam the hell out of those High PR links (xrumer, amr, scrapebox, etc..). I make as many links as I can.

Step 4:

Convert links into RSS feeds and submit it to RSS directories. Ping all the links and RSS. What I also do is submit the links to linklicious (i have pro).

Step 5:

I wait for about 2 days and then I ping the High PR Links.

You can try it yourself and see the results.

Backlink Anchor

One of the main issues that many users face is the diversity of the backlinks they use. Natural SEO happens when a huge number of people are actively talking about something across the internet. They don’t all have the same mindset, so the way they talk about it and the links they create to reference a site are all very different. Yours needs to be too! Let’s say you are “McDonalds” and the primary keyword you are targeting is “Tasty Burgers”. Creating 100% of your links as “Tasty Burgers” may seem like the logical thing to do when in fact it is damaging.

After reviewing the backlink break down of some high ranking sites that I knew did hardly any (if any at all) SEO the link break down pretty much resembled:

• 10% Primary Keyword
• 35% Various other Keywords
• 25% Click Here/Here/(variation)
• 30% Raw link

When creating backlinks it is important to remember that the over optimization update means that Google is actively looking for the SEO you preform, so you are not only trying to improve your SEO but now more than ever you are trying to make it seem natural.

Use your primary keyword (in our sample case “Tasty Burgers”) no more than 10% of the time. You would want to use at least 5 – 10 variations of your keyword 35%. These variations should relate in some way to your primary keyword but still be different. For our sample they make look like this:

• Delicious Burgers
• Yummy Burgers
• Best Burgers
• Burger Combos
• Cheap Burgers

25% of the time you should using what I call the “click here” variations. These are article trimmers commonly used by blogs and websites that write a short snippet about you and are encouraging their readers to check out their website or an expand article. Of the 25% most of them should be on web2.0 profiles, news blogs, or article websites. Here is a small word list to get you started:

• Click Here
• Read More
• More
• Here
• Their Site
• Visit them
• Visit
• Website
• Site
• Homepage
• Company Page
• Profile

The last 30% of your link building should be focused on using raw links as the anchor. Once again it is important to remember that everyone types differently so even your raw links shouldn’t always be the same. For our example:

mcdonalds.com
mcdonalds.com/
www.mcdonalds.com
www.mcdonalds.com/tastyburgers.html

http://mcdonalds.com

http://mcdonalds.com/

http://www.mcdonalds.com/

http://www.mcdonalds.com/tastyburgers.html

As you can see we’ve managed to link to the same site in a lot of different ways, and since this is the anchor text it really doesn’t make a difference as to where it goes.

There is another category of link type to be aware of, that makes up <0.4% of most backlink profiles and that is any of the above anchor types with a spelling mistake. This is of course a rare case but I would say if you have anywhere over 5000 backlinks you may want to drop 1 in.

Backlink Placement

Now that we have looked at how to deal with backlinks, let’s talk about where to put them.

When looking at backlinks I commonly divide them into four categories:

• 5% Primary (Authority) Backlinks
• 5% High End Contextual Backlinks
• 10% Mixed backlinking
• 80% Web2.0

Primary Backlinks:
First we are going to look at “Primary Backlinks” these are your main backlinks that come from authority sites etc. It’s important first to think of your business/or clients business and identify their consumer.

Example A: My client is a technology based business consultant, his target demographic is therefore other businesses. If someone on the internet was to talk about him it would likely be:

1. A Business Blog
2. LinkedIn/Quora Posts
3. Various Directories
4. Online Journals
5. Professional Websites

Primary links often make are what make or break your website, they should always be contextual, authoritative and built in a whitehat manner. These are your holy grail, so don’t take any short cuts, this 5% often makes up 75%+ of my budget.

Example A is a real client of mine so we can follow exactly some of the steps I took to build up their Primary Links.

1. Located Business Archives both in and outside of the tech niche and manually created profiles on all of them. Each profile is different text. Nothing spun, nothing repeated, all whitehat. Here are a few samples to give you an idea:

crunchbase.com
killerstartups.com
go2web20.net
tradevibes.com
startupping.com
venturebeatprofiles.com
yellowpages.ca (Canada)
canadianbusinessdirectory.ca (canada)
directorylocal.com (USA)
Superpages.com
dir.yahoo.com
clickstate.com
allpages.com

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_companies_of_the_United_States

http://ylm.ca/ylm/ylm_home.aspx?f=460 (Canada Tech Triangle)

2. We created a tutorial for the employees of the company to teach them how to make Linkedin and Quora profiles, once these were set up to include backlinks we had each of them answer a question on Quora where they felt they had a good understanding of, and their colleges would upvote them. This created a fun team activity for the employees as well as a great deal of quality backlinks for the company. Of course if you aren’t a big marketing consultant or working with that type of company, these results can easily be created by one person and some time.

3. Targeting a journal or other high end article syndication is not always an easy task but it is one that can pay off in the long run. For this client it was the Harvard Business Review blog. For your client it could be something much smaller like a local news journal picking up a press release, or even contacting a blogger to sponsor a featured article. In our case we contacted a past published author and the client paid them to write a quality article on their behalf.

4. Professional websites are another great form of primary link. For our client it meant contact the people they provide a service to and getting a lot of homepage footer links. For you this could also mean renting page links monthly, buying high pr websites, or guest blogging to get a solid backlink.

The reason we avoided the McDonalds example in this section is because their style of business really doesn’t merit primary backlinks, other than news outlets. Their business style will mostly be involved in social backlinks. If you find that your consumer demographic is large and varied, and a heavy hitter with the youth/young adult demographic you are in the same boat and should just continue on.

High End Contextual Backlinks

What I am talking about with High End Contextual Backlinks? These backlinks aren’t as well planted as your primary backlinks but they still take time thought and effort.

These backlinks may consist of comments, forum posts/profiles, on-page content, and social bookmarks. The difference is though they should have unique, contextual content posted with them. As if they were written by different people over time, giving them more authority than bulk bookmarking you are going to do later.

Mixed Backlinking

Mixed backlinks are where you actually want to look for some middle of the road properties such as small web2.0 or crappy bookmarking sites, and have poor descriptions (if any) of the link.

These links are designed to be your “bad links” any time a website goes big everyone is talking about it; sadly it is a combination of both the people you want talking about it andthe people you don’t want talking about it. In order to make your SEO look natural it is important to ensure that this demographic is represented.

Web2.0 Backlinks

When you think about how the web has evolved (marketing as well for that matter) it has shifted away from webmasters and editors pushing content in one direction and become a constantly evolving conversation between multiple parties.

Chances are if people are talking about your business or website the conversation is happening on social media, social bookmarking and web2.0 properties.

While these are mostly bulk made backlinks take the time to make top quality spinnable articles rather than farming writeups out to low-end article writing chop-shops. The most important thing is the relation to keywords but it is important to note that Google does have the ability to detect the reading level of a passage.

Timing

More than ever SEO needs to slow down, blasting out hundreds of thousands of links, or even 1000 of links a day is something that will for sure get you a red flag in Google’s eyes.

When analyzing small sites as they grow you will notice that they have a constant amount of small link growth, coupled with small bursts of additional coverage.

From the results I’ve looked at it roughly seems that these bursts represent a 275% – 350% growth in links for 2 – 4 days, and then a 15% – 20% higher link value the following days until the next burst. Outside of this I try to limit growth to no more than 10% per week.

For example:

If your website gains 100 backlinks a day (obviously a very popular site) your burst days would be 375 – 450 backlinks. Then once it has settled down you will be gaining 115 – 120 backlinks per day again. The next week even if there is no burst I would move up to

While every site is different growth patterns are usually based on the news posting or sharing of a site, and thanks to the short attention span of the internet it usually quickly returns.

The only time there are exceptions to this rule is when a startup company, social media site or internet phenomenon takes off, their links skyrocket and are more than likely subject to some form of secondary algorithm.

To some of you the numbers in the example may seem high, to others it may seem low. It all depends on what type of site you are building, but remember far more often than not the quality of the link FAR outweighs the quantity. If your site is creating 1000 spammy links a day you are doing it wrong.

Reading Level

This one may come as a surprise to many of you but Google is actively aware of the quality of your sites content by application of the Flesch–Kincaid reading level analysis.

After Google’s acquisition of MetaWeb on July 16th 2010, they began pushing further and further into the idea of “semantic search” to understand both user needs and webpage quality. By integrating MetaWeb’s early adaptation of page reading level analysis (and now having it as an option advanced search) Google showed that article quality was something key above all else. Perhaps why technical giants like Wikipedia were able to swoop up a number of high SERP rankings over the years.

Basically the way the Flesch–Kincaid system is scored is:

90.0–100.0 easily understood by an average 11-year-old student
60.0–70.0 easily understood by 13- to 15-year-old students
0.0–30.0 best understood by university graduates

The lower the score the more difficult the read. In general it’s best to aim for something between 25 – 40, and there are many online tools that will help you figure out the Flesch-Kincaid score of your page.

If you are a hardknock and want to figure out yourself the formula is as follows:

Common Questions

Is drip feeding important?

I think it is certainly something of value, but in general I only use drip feeding when it is built into indexing tools. Otherwise if you are using a drip creation tool you are probably getting low quality articles, very little context, and more links than you actually need.

What do I do if I am hit with penalty

If you are hit with penalty you will want to remove Google Webmaster Tools, and analytics from your website first.

You will then want to evaluate where your penalty may have come from and take steps to re-balance this. If you find your percent of one type of anchor are too high then continue to build others till it is at a more acceptable level.

Once you have resolved the penalty cause wait about a week then re-add Google Webmaster Tools and Google Analytics to your website.

At that time ping out updates regarding your website and you should be re-crawled in no time.

So it’s not about bulk backlinks or just building on my keyword?

Nope, it used to be, but SEO is rapidly changing. Now more than ever you want quality on-site and variety off-site. Remember if your SEO was a result of natural web discussion there would be a ton of differences in every link, in fact very few of them would be the same. They would look different, go different places, and be on varying properties of varying value built over time.

It is now the goal of an SEO specialist to work closely with clients to meld marketing and SEO together, to guide them in whitehat practices that give clear long lasting results.

Sure there are methods that are blackhat that have some impact, but in a world of increasing penalties it’s always better to make good strong quality manual links (which is actually good for us – it means we can charge more as we can’t be beat out by bots).

Are there any services on BHW that offer this type of SEO?

They are starting to pop-up here and there, look for people who take a unique and long-term approach to a client site. Don’t expect results over night. When I make up SEO plans for a client rather than set my goals for one month, I break the year down by quarters.

Do spinnable articles still work?

The content on your site needs to be more carefully tended to than it has been in the past, spin articles are great for your backlinking and bookmarking; but for on-page content I would recommend hiring a professional or doing it yourself. Making sure to take care with keyword density and reading levels.

I don’t agree with what you’ve said!/Link Spamming still works!

I am sure there are people who will argue, and I am sure there are people that will swear by link spamming. That is your opinion feel free to have and express it. I am not trying to tell you how to do SEO, I am giving you my findings and my approach to dealing with changes that Google is pushing out more and more – if you don’t like them, don’t use them. It’s as simple as that.

You can also use http://www.indexkings.com/ to index fast your pages and get some backlinks if your luky. U can use it on your Web 2.0 properties for ex.

Create blogspot/wordpress blogs for every keyword with an unique content article, and links to your FB page/main site…this work pretty well for me

Think about sending some PDF articles about every keyword on scribd (PR9) it get indexed in less than 15min and you get high PR backlinks (just use it wisely, 5 to 10 pdfs)

Use Youtube videos to get more visits and link diversity.

U can also stimulate a kind of buzz on Social medias(Facebook specialy) google realy loves this, and push faster your site to the top. This method helped me bringing back a website penalised from No result to #5 spot in 1 week.

A) Did you got some private blog network backlinks?

If you see a penalty some time after you got some private blog network post backlinks – even some long months later – it could meant that blog network got de-indexed (check your reports and forums for any comments about de-indexing networks).

Penalty recognition:

- sudden drop in rankings without any reason (sometimes it could be 3-5 spots, sometimes 100-200 spots)
- un-explained dancing (no backlinking/onsite optimization done in last 2 weeks)

Solution:

If you see only dancing/small drop in rankings then it means your backlink diversity is low. Go and grab some different types of backlinks – mix of Manual Bookmarks (a lot of them from different providers) and unique article submission to article directories will help to regain your position – even stronger than before.

B) Did you pinged your website/got some Whois posted to it?

You can notice huge dancing (even tens of positions back and forward) or sudden drop way below top100.

Penalty recognition:

- sudden drop in rankings or heavy dancing
- drop in just few keywords or group of related keywords

The main causes could be two:

B1) your onsite optimization is really poor
B2) you have nasty backlinking (some really poor backlinks/spam/porn links)

To determine which one is right – simply check what backlinks Google sees by checking Alexa backlink checker and Google search engine. If Alexa is not showing anything of ppor quality (spammed websites where you link is located) then search for your website as – domain.com (without quotes and without www or http://). If you can see any spammy links (use your common sense to determine) within first 5 pages – then go ahead with B2 solution. If not – use B1 solution.

Solution:

B1) Check your inner linking (for any dead ones), correct 301′s, proper site map, proper coding of website (no serious errors). I would suggest getting some webmaster to check your coding (he do not need access to your hosting – he should be able to work by reading your sites code with his browser) or using IBP (expensive but extensive) or SEOmoz (less expensive but really user friendly) – I didn’t tested other options so just check reviews on SEO non-affiliate forums/blogs/review sites.
After you are done hit your site with ping services (pingomatic, feed burner) and whois sites (hit it with like 1000-10.000 sites to get your site noticed by crawlers to re-check it).

B2) Build some high authority backlinks – perfectly 2-3 types of links.
I would suggest high PR backlinks at first (any high PR backlinks will do really). Once you have some good number of them get them indexed at once (build SB links to them or run them by one of the indexing/crawling programs like Linklicious/Backlinks Indexer/Lindexed etc.)
[For example - build some High PR (PR4+) forum profiles, High PR blog posts and High PR Web 2.0 properties]

C) Did you created a lot of backlinks lately?

You have created a lot of backlinks recently and your site is jumping around or lost a lot of rankings.

Penalty recognition:

- heavy dancing, moving up and down (from top position to out of top100 and backwards)
- most of the keywords changed position right after backlinking (possibly for worst)
- your website lost all rankings (but you can still see it in Google as top3 when you search for your own domain name without spaces etc.)

Solution:

C1) You are not in top3 results when you search for domain.com (where domain = your domain name, .com = your extension – do not use www/http when searching for it in Google)

It means your website got serious penalty from Google – possibly soft one.
DO NOT ask for reconsideration within Webmaster Tool in Google.

Follow those steps:
- remove Google Analitycs from your site
- close your Google Webmaster Tools account (cancel it)
- log out from Gmail/Youtube (from now on always log out from them before accessing Google search results or your site)
- opt out/log out from any Google owned business that could lead to YOU or to your website

Perform full onsite optimization – (Check step B1) but do not do Whois linking.
Build quality backlinks to your site – Facebook, Twitter and whole group of Reputation Management business sites (Linkedin/Merchant Circle/YouTube/MySpace…). Do it manually or get a guy that can do this for you.
Get some social backlinks (High PR Manual Bookmarks or Re-Tweets with your link in it).
Get all links crawled (use Pingomatic or more advanced crawling service)
After all this – wait for ~5 days and then submit your site to good list of Whois websites (minimum 1.000).

C2) You are on position 2-3 when you search for your domain name.

Build more diverse backlinks – create “Raw backlinks” (no anchor links) to your main page. You can use for this AMR – get some quality article from Ezine, do not spin it and submit it to article directories. As a link use your homepage url (not inner pages, just homepage).

C3) You are on position 1 when you search for your domain name.

This is just a dance. You can get few of crawling services (Pingomatic etc) and submit your site to them to speed up process of ranking selection.
DO NOT submit your site to Whois sites at the beginning of dance as this can mislead you with further investigation on whats the problem.

D) Did you maintained status Quo for last 2 months?

You have done nothing in last 2 months but all suddenly all your keywords started to falling in rankings.

Penalty recognition:

- sudden drop in rankings without doing anything to the site by you
- complete lost of rankings by all the keywords

Solution:

D1) Your keyword is easy/medium competition

You lack link building – keep building backlinks on weekly or even daily basis. Try to diversify backlinks and fetch some high quality manual ones (Linkedin/Merchant Circle/YouTube/MySpace/Tumblr/Tweeter/Ezine…)
You need to re-build your whole SEO campaign so create a plan of backlinking and start getting them in proper quantities – use your common sense on how many of them. Regular site will use 3 different backlinks provider/sources a month (for example – Manual Bookmarking, Manual Web 2.0 and Scrapebox blast with 10K links – change strategy/providers each month).

D2) Your keyword is in high competitive niche

You need to check your backlinks.
Go to Alexa.com and Google.com and search for your backlinks.
When in Google.com search for domain.com (without quotes, where domain.com is your domain name).
Go through first 10 pages (if there is as much as that) and look for backlinks you do not recognize.

D2-A) You found backlinks that you do not recognize (made by your competitor) – you need to make them weaker or stronger:

D2-A1) Make them stronger – build backlinks to those bad links (do not do it if the anchors are nasty ones like – “Porn”, “Fuck”, “Cocaine” etc or there is more than 1.000 outgoing links from the page). Get some proper Scrapebox blasts to those links in order to create authority in them. Around 100-500 backlinks per bad link is enough. Get all the backlinks created to badlinks crawled (use Linklicious/Lindexed/BacklinksIndexer).

D2-A2) Make them weaker – to do so you need to make your website authority one. Create high authority backlinks to your website comming from popular social sites + Wikipedia (if you can – possibly as a source link or in-article anchor) + Wiki sites (there is many service providers offering such a Wiki submission). Build few hundreds of high PR backlinks to your site without anchor (“Raw Link”). Get all the backlinks crawled using popular pinging/indexing services.
If none happened – submit your site to Whois database after 2 weeks of creating major backlinks.
Keep building backlinks constantly and take care of diversity so this wont happen again.

2) Avoiding Penalty and Google reviews:

A) Onsite Optimization
B) Offsite SEO
C) Overall Quality Score[/B]

A) Onsite Optimization

You are required to keep a very good onsite optimization.
You need to prevent having serious coding loops or errors as Google will detect it easily. Any dead links (within a site or going to other sites) can affect your rankings and cause problems.
List of things to look at:

- Check your websites code for any serious errors. Your code should be W3C validated: http://validator.w3.org/
- Check for dead links – Google hates them: http://www.brokenlinkcheck.com
- Interlink your inner pages to main page (Inner Page linking to main page with one of your main Anchor) or other way around (main page linking through footer with Anchors to most valued inner pages – not too many though)
- No excessive advertising – 2 ad blocks are enough, 3 is a lot, 4+ can affect your rankings
- No linking out to Scam/Spam/Illegal sites – one link to Scam e-commerce shop can drain out your authority
- Proper content quantity/quality for crawlers to index – 300 words article is not enough to fill whole website. Every site, even MNS should have more than 1 page and more than 300 words article
- DO NOT post spinned content on your website – Google will index copied content as long as it is quality and related. Spinned content can get you de-indexed or penalized
- You do not need to link to authority sites – by doing so you will pass some juice on them but also you will get more Google trust. Evaluate which option is best for you.

B) Offsite SEO

To impress Google you need proper diversification and constant backlinking.

- Create different types of backlinks. There is no “Miracle Backlink”. You cant dominate results with just one backlink type and hope for Status Quo. You need to diversify your campaign so Google wont see any spam attempts. Even if you are #1 keep building diverse backlinks (if #1 was achieved by blog posts from
private network – build some quality Web 2.0 and .Edu links for diversity and security).
- Keep constant backlink flow. You cannot create 100K Scrapebox backlinks at once and expect best. Keep building backlinks daily, weekly or even monthly to maintain your good authority and trust within Google.
a) Monthly backlinking example – buy automatic bookmarking, 10K Scrapebox blog comments and wiki links in one month – then in next one create new “campaign”
b) Weekly backlinking example – create 1-2 different backlink types like Private Blog Network submission and Forum Profiles first week, .Edu backlinks and Linkpushing other week.
c) Daily backlinking example – build daily amount of backlinks like blog comments, forum profiles bookmarks and manual high PR backlinks
- Mix quality with quantity – Scrapebox or Xrumer links are good as long as you will mix them with high authority (or high PR) backlinks. Do not worry about getting 10K Scrapebox links – but add some extra high PR Bookmarks or Articles same week you done them for fast and secure results.
- Get high authority backlinks indexed using indexing/crawling systems – any high authority (or high PR) backlink can be artificially forced to cue for crawling by Google without any negative penalty.

C) Overall Quality Score

Look at your website as manual reviewer will do it.
He have less than a minute to evaluate your website and he will look for following:
- code/keyword report
- relevance of content to keyword
- ad spam/affiliate spam attempts
- content lockers (do not use content locker if 100% of your traffic is from Google unless you are experienced in what you do)
- misleading information/links
