The other option is to actually create a site that offers amazing content or “stuff” the competitors don’t. You then market that content to readers, spend time networking with people in your niche/related niches, and grow your site. Takes a while this way, but if your site does take off, you can win big. Most IM’ers don’t opt for this path because it’s a substantial investment in time and effort over the long run. But the rewards can be worth it if you put in the work and your site (depending on the niche) may end up attracting those ultra valuable natural links. You need to think creatively though and simply rewriting a bunch of content and tossing it on a wordpress them, then trying to get link exchanges won’t do it.

Would much appreciate an answer on this.

We all know what panda is doing to massive link building strategies, bitch slapping everything in its way!
So how can you make successful backlinks that actually get you ranked, no mini site bullshit, just straight up high quality informative site that you are trying to turn into an authority one.

Thanks!

I’m gonna try to set up an authority site myself, I’ve got way too many mini sites kicking around. How do you get backlinks for it though? If you put in 500 articles on your authority site and try to backlink every article like you said, don’t you have to find over 50 different places to get backlinks? If you make more than 10 ezinearticles links to your site you get very little link juice out of them, so how do you back up the rest of your 490 articles?

Also do you recommend tier backlinking for the articles (backlinking your backlinks backlinks) or just individual backlinks here and there?

Thanks again for all the info man, you’re an inspiration to us all!

Still, would like to hear about setting up multiple adsense accounts!

I’ve been doing research on your site and grizzly’s site trying to scrape together the basics so I can start publishing niche blogs monetized with adsense…

My concern is that a lot of the articles I have been reading on Grizly’s site are from 3 years ago, and i’ve been reading some more up to date articles (like yours) saying that things are changing and that folks are being banned from adsense, de-indexed, etc.

Could you elaborate in a future article about some (up to date) ways to manage multiple sniper / niche blogs monetized with adsense while avoiding bans?

My biggest fear is that I will spend months applying things I have learned only to find that everything is outdated, all of my sites have been deindexed and I have been banned from adsense for using “old tricks” that google is wise to.

Also, you mentioned that you intend to set up multiple adsense accounts. I would be really interested to hear how this is done as the folks at nonpoint meerly chant in unison “only one account per person” whenever this question is asked.

Thanks for putting so much time and effort into this blog.

and then all of the various country codes such as .uk, .us, then all of the 50 states government sites like .wi.us or .mn.us or .ia.us .fl.us and so on.

There’s sidebar links, footer links, header links, graphic and image links, title links, in post links.

In terms of PR you could vary your range on that too. I think you should probably have a lot more low PR links since they’re easier to get and more common, and use the lower PR to vary your anchor text, and types of link while focusing exact keywords on important links.

Then if you want to go into the types of sites you link from… There’s related links, unrelated… social bookmarks and social news, forum links, blog comments

Anchor text there’s exact keyword(how to bake cookies), parts of keyword in part of anchor text(how to on baking cookies), related keyword(learn to bake cookies, making cookies), exact keyword plus additional words (how to bake cookies for beginners), fragmented exact keyword with additional word(s) (how to bake chocolate chip cookies)

okay… so what have I missed… and how important do you think having these different types of links i?

It’s a valid argument though. If you are concerned then what you can do is link your site/minisite with adsense to an ezine or some other web 2.0 with some prebuilt authority that doesn’t have your adsense ID on it, (as you suggested) and use that to launder the link juice to your money site. Or get another adsense account for your support sites.

Do you agree with this theory? If it were true than perhaps we could get around this by only linking your hubs/IBs to your support sites (that don’t have adsense).

Second tier sites I keep isolated. I don’t want them all linking together in a big chain because if one get’s a check, all the sites are exposed. If you have say 20 second tier sites than you maybe can link small clusters of 2-4 sites together if you want. I like to keep things seperate though.

In general, I don’t put adsese on second tier sites. The rule of thumb is to make sure your money sites are protected. Mass interlinking between 3rd tiers, second tiers, etc defeat that purpose.
