Internet Marketing Industry People I Respect… And Then The People I Don’t Really Care For!

Last week I made a bit of a ranting thread on WickedFire as a way to get some stress and other crap off my chest that had been bugging me for a while. I didn’t do it for linkbait, I didn’t do it to pick a fight, I didn’t even do it to entertain anyone but myself. I did it solely for the purpose of the fact that I have just been so sick and tired of reading the same shit over and over by people who don’t have a stinking clue as to how to really do what they say they do! I mean, there is only so much a person can take when visiting other blogs and then hear or see the same crap being posted all over the industry about how great or how unique this one guy’s advice or blog is, when really, it’s just the same shit, over and over and over again. It also turns out, that most people are sheep. It’s true, you can admit it if you know you’re one of those people.

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!!

Make Money Online - $400 CPM - $600 CPM Guaranteed!

I’m going to keep this quick and short.

If you’re a BH SEO or a high volume PPC Arbitrager, and can deliver traffic from Google, Yahoo, MSN or ASK, then our private traffic network can pay you at a rate of no less than $400 CPM for all of your US traffic.

There is no site to signup at, because we are keeping it via invitation and manual approval only. I don’t care what country you’re based in either. This is also for all keywords in one specific entertainment niche.

Let me stress this again… We are ONLY accepting traffic directly from the SERPs of Google, Yahoo, MSN and ASK, and ONLY accepting PPC traffic from Adwords/Adsense (custom Google search), YPN/YSM, ASK and MSN. ONLY US traffic too. Longtails are fine.

Also, if you cannot provide at least 5,000 uniques a day, do not even bother contacting me about this.

We’re launching our phase II of our beta program on Jan 2nd 2008.

If you cannot make at least $40,000 a month with this, you’ll be paid for what we owe you, but not asked to return. The current average of earnings is at the $62,500 mark per month.

This is by far the easiest way to bank off of SERPs and PPC traffic, because all you are responsible for is non-fraud, search engine traffic, that is niche specific, and can use almost any keyword associated with that niche. The users don’t have to click either, they are automatically tracked and sent to the advertiser’s site directly. It is then the advertiser’s job to convert the user into a lead or sale, not yours, not ours, just theirs. Once that user is tracked and redirected to the advertiser’s site/page, you get paid. It’s just that simple.

We’re not looking for shit traffic sources either, and I can pretty much guarantee you that if you’re caught using Tier 2 or Tier 3 arbitraged traffic, or any type of direct nav domainer traffic, or spyware/adware traffic, you risk losing all of your cash. We won’t tolerate it. We’re only looking for interested affiliates who can follow our pretty lax set of rules.

This is seriously a godsend for any BH SEO or Tier 1 PPC Arbitrager.

Contact me immediately if you think you have what we need. If I don’t know you, you may have to provide references.

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.

Response To An SEO’s Blog About My TrustRank Research

Thanks for the link and the constructive criticism. Aaron Wall is underrated, while almost every peer of his is overrated. That guy is one smart man. But I stand by my statement about links not being the only part or the only thing to consider. Uncovering all of the TrustRank algorithm factors (well, definitely not all, I doubt I’ll ever get all of them, but 300+ by hand ain’t bad!) you see another side of Google that closely reminds me of the NSA and the CIA having a reputation of friendly neighborhood folks that just want to make sure you are happy. Which is impossible. Same deal with the big G. They’ve been hinting for years that “well if you were to go about things in this direction, it may be in your best interest — but don’t do this or that, or else we will ban you!”; And yet, what you said about SEO’s, and shouldn’t they know about this? No. No one has known anything. Because it’s all been 100% speculation with very little, if any, real confirmation from Google themselves.

The Google staffers who go to the SES shows, and speak about topcis everyone gets all riled up about, all they are doing is creating more buzz. I feel like watching Google and expecting to get answers is very much like watching the show LOST. It’s great for dramatics. Everyone has their own theory to explore. Everyone is addicted. Everyone has almost the same questions they want answered. But for every few low quality questions answered, they bring up 50 more that make you go nuts all over again, and also force you to drift away from the original questions you wanted answers for! Sorry, but it’s all one confusing mess, and has been for years. Most SEO’s just preach whatever they see or hear their industry peers saying. Many of them also post theory as facts, or at least it appears that way, and then by natural forces of the internet, theories that look like facts, become facts, rules, laws and guidelines, and still…. no answers from Google.

PS - Since I’ve disabled comments on my blog as of recently, I’ve been blogging a lot more often! Woah! WTF?! That stands for WHAT THE FUCK, not where’s the fire for you Technorati whores.
