Toying With Blogging ‘Experts’ & ‘Gurus’ Is Fun! Banning Sites On ALL The SERPs

I can’t go too deep into this at the moment… but over the last month I’ve been fucking with a few of the big boy “how to make money online” and “affiliate marketing blog” bloggers and websites who were just pissing me off with their complete and utter nonsense and bullshit. Because there are no legal ways to kill off their blogs/sites/forums without physically removing them from their own servers, I sat around hatching a very evil little plan to kick them off the engines and/or get them banned, for life. Booyakasha!

I’m trying to get one of my old programmer pals from waaaay back in the day that recently got back in touch with me (way before this blog or WF was even thought of) to make it as automated as possible. Although it’s a tough task, I feel like I’m Dr. Evil launching a giant laser beam and holding the earth hostage! Except in this case, I am not holding anyone or anything hostage, instead, I’m just doing it for plain old kicks.

I figure it can be of great use to do a lot more damage to a website that is being scammy, or just like a lot of these asshole bloggers who have enormous followings, or the ones who refuse to acknowledge me or my forum as any type of good resource. Well, revenge is a super sweet! And just to show you blog readers how nice I am, I’ll even nuke some url’s for ya as a barter agreement if you have something good to offer to me (sexual favors don’t count this time!).

I feel like a kid in a candy store. The worst part though is that I can’t publicize whom my victims are due to legal issues (my lawyer rocks but he’s a party pooper), but I can hint at it later! Hahaha!!

I miss this feeling of pure joy when fucking around with WH techniques in a BH kinda way. Man, some of you WH SEO’s are so fucking clueless.

So that’s a total of two ways to nuke search engine rankings and listings of websites, and still, people pretend to be experts and say it can’t be done. Just you wait and see guys!!

TrustRank - Alpha Service Complete; A Look Inside The Beta Service; Radio Show In The Works!

To all those who purchased the TrustRank beta service for $400 per TR report and recommended authority/trusted links, you should have it in your inbox. If you didn’t get it, please email me on my aojon.com email account. Be sure to include the PayPal transaction ID, along with the domain and topics/niches. I had a few bounces, so make sure you whitelist my email address. I’ll be sure to get it to you this weekend.

After AD:TECH NY next week, I’ll be launching the next phase  in the TrustRank service. It will be more of an a la carte type of service. One of the things to look forward to will be not only recommendations, but actual link work done for clients. It’s a semi-automated process, meaning, since I can’t fully automate it without sharing the information with a programmer, which I refuse to do, I’ll be hand picking the domains for the clients, and having them fed into an older custom app I found in my arsenal from a little under a year ago. It will do the job just fine and will allow you to sit back and get links without doing the work yourself. It should go a lot faster, and produce some great results. I’ve already tested it out for some friends for free, and on some of my newly acquired domains. So far, it’s worked 100% of the time, so hopefully it will stay that way without any issues.

I had some clients who submitted domains and topics/niches for other countries and languages, and surprisingly, this service can work for just about anything and any language. There was even a casino and pharma client, and at first I didn’t think there would be all that many results, and that I would have to refund them, but to my surprise, it actually produced some really solid results.

I thought that the most interesting part of this first service was that during the recent PageRank change, almost none of the results via TR were changed, or downgraded rather. Many of the results actually shot up a few notches. I had to change a few people’s TR scores because they went up a lot quicker than usual, so it was as if Google was saying “alright, your PageRank is too high, so let’s take some away, but we’ll compensate you with more trust/authority”. Not sure who decided that on Google’s side, but whatever, no complaints on this side of the fence I’m sure.

Another interesting part was seeing empty domains, like newly expired/deleted ones, jump a few points in TrustRank (nothing to brag about, still pretty damn low), but retained their PageRank even though when I ran it through some “very accurate PR testing tools” they appeared to be fake PR. I still don’t understand that, and quite frankly, I’m not going to even bother trying to understand it, because PageRank has no effect on anything except if you’re selling links on your site to people who still believe that PageRank matters (aka - 98% of the SEO industry and webmasters).

I’ll be at AD:TECH NY from November 4th-7th, so don’t expect any responses from me or blog posts either. We don’t have a booth for WickedFire either, but there may be a meet up point on the 5th. Check WickedFire.com for more details. I didn’t plan anything personally, but we did it last year at Copeac’s booth, and it was fun to finally meet so many of the members. Plus it made Copeac look like an uber popular booth, haha! No I’m kidding, they are great people and always have a ton of foot traffic show up.

That’s all for now. Catch ya on the flip side.

Oh yeah… There’s a radio show in the works. It won’t be anything like that one pilot episode I did almost 2 years ago either. We are going for a more quality in content but with a very sarcastic/humor focused program. We’re still debating on whom we will be hosting/streaming with. The choices right now are - WebmasterRadio, DI.fm/SKY.fm, or hosting/streaming it ourselves.  One of my good pals from my brief college and fraternity stint does funny voice-over work, and can mimic just about every great character voice I know of, so we plan on using his talents for some intro and commercial work. I really want to have a live show too, so people can call in and voice their opinion. More on this after AD:TECH as we are still working out the details.

TrustRank Service Updates & The Recent PageRank & SEO Effects By Google

Just wanted to throw a quick update post here.

    TrustRank Service Updates

I’ve decided to scale down the amount of reports delivered to doing just two reports per day. Not because it has any effect on the TrustRank scores, but because it’s more efficient for me, time and quality wise. If you NEED it done sooner, email me and let me know. Be sure to include your invoice/transaction order number, and all of your topic/niche and domain information. For those of you who can wait longer, thanks in advance for making my life easier.

    PageRank and Search Engine Optimization Effects By Google

The recent PageRank updates were really interesting and amusing at the same time. They were amusing because everyone got all shaken up about losing or gaining (although most sites lost a point or two) their PageRank status, and think it has some effect on their overall ranking.

The REALLY amusing and interesting part about the changes was that Google made overall changes and new additions to their advertising sub-algorithms to incorporate their move into other forms of advertising and delivery across the board. My guess was that it was a really clever diversion on their part, because they have everyone riled up as always about small PageRank and even smaller algorithm updates, so people wouldn’t notice the changes made for their TV, print and radio units. Good job Google, you’re just proving my theories correct one after another here. Although, you gotta admit, it was a VERY slick move on their part. Unless of course you just want to pretend it was all just a giant coincidence that they waited this long to do the changes on PageRank and SERPs updates and at the same time inject their new platforms for offline advertising as well. There were also analytical updates and changes, but I can’t get into that stuff now, because it is far too complex for a blog like this, and quite frankly, I just don’t have the time to explain it. Plus it’s not HUGE so there’s no sense in getting into it until it has real effects on things other than just analytical data.

That’s all for now. Oh look, my blog’s PageRank and WickedFire’s PageRank went from a 5 to a 4, and yet, rankings haven’t been lost. Wonder why that is.. >=o)

Orders for TR Service Are Delayed!

I know. I know. I promise I’m working as hard as humanly possible for a one man show to get all of the orders filled. I’m also spending a considerable amount of time focusing on each order and giving it the love it deserves to make sure everyone gets what they paid for and then some. I have approximately 40 orders completed and delivered now. I did the really tough and annoying ones first. The ones specifically where people who submitted their target topic and/or niche were totally off, so I had to do it for them, and then a few that changed their orders at literally the last moment on Friday. Now I remember why I hated being a consultant. Sometimes when people pay for something, they expect you to drop everything and pay attention to them. Well, my bedside manners blow, so I’m keeping my AIM on Away status, and I’m getting these churned out one by one like I promised. I also decided to re-do a few of them so that the suggested URL’s for getting in-bound links are about as easy and close to free or cheap as hell as they can possibly be. Each report will include lots of in-depth definitions on what the TrustRank levels and scores mean, how to get better links, how to take the non-BH and gray hat approaches depending on your preference of whatever hat color you sport.

That’s all for now. Just figured I’d post about it so to calm the emails of people asking if I sent it and maybe it hit their spam boxes. I doubt it. All of them are set at High Priority from my Outlook Express box, and if you got my first two payment and response emails, I doubt you’d miss this one.

TrustRank Service Update

Just wanted to let everyone know, all reports are going to be delivered by Friday night NYC/EST time. There have been a few delays from people switching orders, adding orders, and a few people just being plain annoying. There is ONE pending order that looks like it will fizzle out (if you are that idiot reading this, I’m going to be deleting your invoice because you haven’t answered it since Monday).

For those of you who want to get the service but were too slow or too late to catch it, I can add you to the waiting list, but it’s very unlikely more than one spot will open up.

The next service is going to be more expensive but will be doing a lot more at the same time. For those people who ordered the first one, I’ll give you first access to it and take $50-$75 or so off your order.  I’ve been screwing around with some other cheaper solutions too so that more people can benefit from it, and trying to figure out if I can get it automated or not, so we’ll see what happens then.

Also…

Stop trying to IM and email me asking me to explain what I did during the year of research on the TR algo. Seriously guys. Why would I sit there and explain the shit in-depth and give out the stuff I did and found out and share it for free? Exactly what would I gain through that? And also, I will never make a piece of software to sell or anything that would EVER put me at risk at losing my upper hand with this stuff, ever! So just stop asking already. I’m glad you think it’s really interesting and blah blah blah… but I spent a year now doing this shit by hand, and when I was first asking around for help, no one was there to give it to me, so if you want to do it yourself, you’re on your own! Don’t try to get shit from me on this.

That’s all for now. I hope to make a totally unrelated information post as the next blog entry. It’s been a long time since I’ve done one of those, so I think it’s time for that again.
