Hey attorney hackers welcome to this Week’s episode in today’s episode we are Going to be talking about ranking new Content without building links i know That link building is either something a Lot of people don’t want to do or it’s Just some finite resource that you can’t Just do for every single page you’re Publishing on your site and so we’re Going to be talking about these pages Where let’s say you’re out of link Building budget of all resources or time Or whatever and you still want to get More organic traffic how do you do that That’s what we’re addressing in this Episode and you will see there is a Bunch of sneaky tactics and examples etc And if you enjoyed that kind of like Tactical episodes don’t forget to Subscribe like and drop us a comment Below and tell us what other topic you’d Like us to talk about in the podcast We’ll read all the comments and we’re Really interested in making episodes That you actually care about so yeah let Us know in the comment section i’m not Going to juice that intro anymore let’s Get started with the episode Hey everyone welcome back to the atari Hacker podcast today we’re going to be Talking about i know about a topic that I know a lot of you guys care about and That’s how to run your site without Spending your time link building i know
That we’ve talked about link building We’ve shared a lot of tactics but no Matter how many tactics we share a lot Of people just want to don’t want to do It they just want to build their website And they don’t want to deal with that so Uh we’ve got to like be realistic about This though i don’t want to tell you That you don’t need links like links are Still one of the most important factors When it comes to ranking on google and So we’re going to have to be a little Bit smart Working around it so you can get some of The links metrics that you need But also to get the right keywords and All of that so it’s going to be a lot of Like small tactics and i’ve prepared a Bunch of examples as well to show how to Do that but something that has has been Prepared even more than this podcast is How mark is doing so how are you doing Mark uh what have you prepared for for Today Uh a little dance maybe or something Like this Gail i’ve spent hours days even Preparing to answer this very question Um no Not much to be honest uh What is how is it going um Fine i guess we’ve been uh working on Really a lot of projects uh at the Moment uh really pushing two sites very
Very hard right now hiring quite a few New people Um and we’re also um sneak peek uh Redesigning authority hacker not a full Redesign How are we branding just our design so Let’s just say when we made the last Version Um I think a lot of the colors and elements And and things are nice just how we Organize them on the page and the Cohesiveness of it uh Could be improved somewhat so we’ve Designed uh we found a designer that we Really like uh we’ve we’ve created the Design uh and we are currently almost Finished building it So excited to launch that and see what You guys think Just be honest you just saw income School read their homes page so you Wanted to redo yours as well right That’s what happened I did not see them do that but uh if you Say so i’ll take your word for it I mean they’ve just been on the homepage Almost so it’s not it’s not a big Redesign but uh yeah but anyway the new Design should be cool hopefully it Doesn’t raw anyways any issues can Guarantee that we know how these things Work when you roll these big changes on Your site uh hopefully rankings will be
Okay i think they will be okay i’m not Too worried like we’ve done a bunch of Changes as well we’ve changed java Recently And so on without any issues but you Know how this works right it’s like it Goes well 95 percent of the time and Five percent of the time Unforeseen uh consequences of things you Do happen but that’s not what people Came here for uh so we should go into What people came here for which is Essentially how do i get a bunch of Traffic without spending my days link Building uh and so we’re going to be Talking about that because yeah it’s Really a big issue like i mean i’ve been Looking at like our channel analytics et Cetera and Anytime the thumbnail has like no link Building people like the click through Rate goes goes super high so i can Imagine a bunch of people Don’t want buildings and so uh as i said In the intro it’s something that you’re Going to have to tamper as well because It’s not because we don’t want buildings That we shouldn’t have links like if Your computers are building links on Queries and you have no competitive Advantage here they will outrank you Like it’s just there’s no way around That it has to be said and you’ve got to Pace your expectations so
You know we are going to try to like be Sneaky and dodge around and get more Value out of the links you have etc in Today’s episode rather than trying to Tell you there’s a magic world where you Don’t need to ever build links basically I would also i was also add to that that If you are building a crap load of links Uh then you should still pay attention And listen because there’s some really Nice No i’m kidding I was like am i am i at the right Podcast recording yeah then you should Still pay attention because there’s a Ton of really good uh like keyword Research and just tactics on getting More bang for your buck out of what You’re already doing Yeah and i think sites sites and site Owners who can’t Won’t or don’t build links have to Resort to these tactics in order to make Progress uh and so there’s no reason you Can’t uh use them too I actually think eventually as the Market becomes more competitive it’s not The case now but you will need to both Do these smart tactics and buildings you Know it’s like it’s kind of this like as Competitiveness increase that’s the kind Of stuff where it’s like well you can do One or the other right now But eventually you probably need to do a
Bit of both to actually get some results But let’s start with the first one which Is going to be mostly addressed to People starting websites And they’re starting on an expired Domain i’m actually i was editing the Video before we started recording the Podcast mark where i’ve made a video on Uh picking expired domains what we’re Looking for what tools we’re using like How we pick them up etc it might be Released at the time i wish this podcast Is coming out so you can go and check on Our channel we pretty called uh i guess Here the editor okay it will be it’s Gonna be next week Uh okay well at some time soon then you Get you get that video It’s a it’s a 14 15 minutes video where I show like exactly the tools exactly What to look for exactly what metrics Exactly everything um but i must say That i’ve been quite impressed with uh Expired domains uh in the past like two Years i think you know where it started Is when i did this alpha investors Review and they built that site for us And it’s funny because in the in the Review i’m like ah they pick some Keywords that i don’t think that size Gonna rank for because of my experience I usually use to build sites on like Fresh domains And it actually ended up ranking for
These keywords i think the keyword was Like How to install a urinal or something Something very sexy um and uh And uh and the the size ranking for it Despite the fact that uh knowledge Building was done for it at the time uh I was like number one for that keyword And you can pick up dr like 20 to 40 Uh sites with like you know 100 200 Linking domains for like less than a Thousand dollars If you play your cards correctly it Doesn’t mean you’re fine exactly the Size the domain you want in exactly the Niche at exactly that time but you can Find a domain that is pretty clean has Some interesting links and why it does Is like in a lot of niches dr 2240 you Can do some damage already you can build A profitable site just putting content On that domain and i think that’s kind Of the the strength of people for people Who don’t want to build links and can uh Like our niche flexible i would say They’re willing to just go for the niche Where they find a good domain for Um That’s one of our running sites and i Think it’s it’s quite valuable to be Honest and I like also that you know usually the First year on the fresh domain it’s Pretty regardless of how much link
Building you do et cetera whereas on These expired domains it’s usually Uh pretty fast so i Uh i quite like it and how about if you Already have let’s say you’re a year or Two into your site can you just buy Another expired domain with a bunch of Links and 301 redirect them Ah that’s actually one point that comes Data You can do that it’s it’s a tricky one Because If you just like buy your domain and Then wildcard redirect which means like Every url of the site redirects to like The homepage that’s kind of the lazy way You buy an expired domain you’re like i Don’t have time to take care of this Your word can’t redirect to your Homepage From my experience it doesn’t do that Much like you know it’s going to bump Your dr But you won’t see much else um so Usually this kind of stuff works when You also Have some like self-available content on That domain and you’re able to redirect The old page to the same page on your Site maybe go get the content on like Archive.org etc and then then that can Work and for example uh kevin Uh I remember like a couple years ago from
Epic gardening he told me he actually Reached out to a site and offered to buy Them for like a thousand bucks right so It’s like uh nothing and From just moving the content to his site And doing the redirect he got an extra 100 000 visits per month which you know Like paid for itself in like a week or That’s right or something like something Like ridiculous like that so I don’t think you’ll find these kind of Deals very often uh these are quite rare So let’s let’s be realistic here in Expectations but yeah you can do that it Is quite a bit of work you know when i Talked about like deploying the new Design on a toyota hacker and we’re Gonna have to be careful on Technicalities et cetera it’s a bit of That as well when you buy an old site You move the content you like sometimes The comments kind of as well so Maybe you want it to be rewritten or Something or you need to kind of like For it or like all so it’s it it is a Pretty big seo task but from the right Domain it’s possible now finding A domain that is exactly matching your Niche with some content you’re happy With that you can redirect etc It’s pretty rare right it’s like so it’s Kind of like it’s going to be a time Thing so either you’re niche flexible And you start a site on whatever you
Find a good domain on and and crosses With a good niche or a good affiliate Offer Or you are you know looking at the Market i do that every month i spend Like a couple hours going through the Market And just bidding on some domains and if Some if i get something i get something If i don’t i don’t um but like over time It’s kind of like buying a house already Like you know you need to give it time So that the it cycles through domains Etc um but it’s really powerful i really Quite like expired domains now uh and to Be frank if i start new sites the Problem is like as i said you don’t Always find the right domain so you kind Of need to come to to do that check Every like two two weeks to a month to Try to build up your catalog of domains You know But if you do It’s a great place to start and you can Really do quite well here and i like it And you don’t have to build links like You can rank literally without building Any link and just build the sites which Is quite nice I would expect that i’m going to be Updating tasks to show to do a full Tutorial on picking up expired domains Uh sometime next year so actually Just because i think uh i think it’s
Something that some people might be Enjoying so that’s essentially the first One don’t buildings just buy those Um if you’re not finding them yourself i Mean where are you going to to find Links uh sorry to explore domains you’re Making me spoil the entire video but uh Uh there’s basically three places you Can go if you want to go like the Cheapest of the cheapest of findings Five domain but doesn’t make much sense Because it takes a lot of time just Gonna need godaddy auctions for uh Expired domains you need to still pay Five bucks per year to Be able to bid on domains but you can See them without paying Uh so you could just purchase that five Bucks whenever you have a domain but the Matrix are are freaking terrible it’s The worst interface ever Godaddy Um like they give you traffic estimates Etc but it’s full it’s like It’s worse than alexa or something like This uh so don’t even bother um my Favorite way of doing this is using a Tool called spamzilla because there is Like a full interface with like ahrefs Data they have like some kind of like Spam score as well you can sort out the Spam domains you can see the drop History you can see all of that and i Think it’s like 37 dollars per month or
Something so i think it can like if You’re going to be dropping you know Hundreds or thousands of dollars buying Some domains i mean 37 bucks a month is Not that crazy uh if it’s going to save You hours per month just scouting for Domains so provided you actually do your Homework and use it it’s good value Um and then if you just don’t want to be Bothered you just want like to be shown Good domains and not filter Then there is Uh ods.global And there is Juicemarket.com which are like kind of Like premium Expired domain marketplaces with like Branded et cetera and all this even like Builds a site for you if you want And that’s that’s okay but like you know I say a domain that i would probably pay Like 800 to a thousand dollars for on Like good ide that i found on like Spenzilla Would probably sell for like three to Five grand on like ods for example so You know you need to be willing to pay That premium for The hassle-free version of it or you Just go and do your own research and You find i find like more options going Through spamzilla than i find through or This even though the old domains are Good like i often struggle to like match
It with like a business model you could Do or like what you would do with that Domain and because what’s really Important when you pick up an expired Domain is that the old site was as close As possible to Um to the new one actually john miller Did an interview like uh like he Answered questions on the webmasters Like hangout or something in 2020 and Some guy was like are you guys resetting Domains on drop domains right And john miller was like well actually When a lot of businesses change hand People like they don’t realize they can Transfer the domain so they let the Domain expire and the guy who bought it Just like kind of like revise it right Away and so as a result if we were Resetting links it would trigger a lot a Lot of false positives when like they Legitimate changes of ownerships of the Same domain and you want them to still Rank And so they’re like well so usually like We we don’t do that unless the new site Is completely different from the outside Then we’re pretty good at figuring this Out um but that essentially what he Admitted is that provided your the new Site is very close to what the old site Was you’re probably fine and you’re Gonna keep the equity the link equity Etc so that’s that’s what he came up
With and i think uh that was quite Interesting i was surprised that i was Surprised to see that people didn’t read Into that people just like read the Words etc with the search engine journal Article etc but Yeah he basically admitted that they Will not touch the link equity and That’s what we observe when we pick up An expired domain and we build the site In the same niche uh on it it ranks much Faster it doesn’t need building et Cetera so yeah expired domain any other Question on this no continue all right Well i was good i did the video today so I was ready you know um The next one is building hubs going Nurse on internal links so Again if you’re not going to be building Links provided you have some level of Authority if you have zero links to your Domain you know internal links of zero To zero it’s just gonna do zero like you Need some authority but If you Like what we do on our site is we tend To build a hub page that uh crystallizes Most of our link building efforts so we Just need to link build one page and it Can target a big keyword and i’m going To show you an example in a second that Is pretty interesting and then that page Then links out to other subdomains and So the example i have here is on
Security.org it’s actually rank number One on the feature snippet for best vpn As dr74 which is pretty low for that Industry um so good job to them but what You also see when you open that page is That below the traditional like Comparison table they have vpn guys and You have they see that you see they have Vpn for streaming vpn for torrenting vpn For gamers vpn For cheap that’s a bit i would say two Vpns instead but whatever um Vpns for chrome etc etc so they Basically link out to You know sub keywords of best vpn And that’s so that base vpn page is the Top of their hub and then they kind of Have the other sub pages that are below That and if you look at how they’ve done Their link building so you open it in Traps and you i’ve given you the report As i will show you on your screen if You’re watching you will see that They’ve basically link built two pages They’ve built their best vpn uh page and They’ve linked built their free vpn page But then if you look at the traffic of All the pages that are interlinked in That silo you will see that a lot more Of these pages despite the fact that They have very few links for that niche You know they rank between six and one For like best vpn for windows right Which you know ahrefs estimates 2 378
Traffic to that page uh that’s pretty Cool that that’s that’s they make good Money from this right uh if i look at How many links they have to that page They have three linkie root domains Right for such a competitive affiliate Keywords uh and that is a perfect Example of that hub strategy that i’m Talking about build a web page that Crystallizes all your link juice and Then just have quality internal linking With anchor text so you can see that on Their page these are like just plain Text links with the exact anchor text to Pass as much relevancy as possible and They are able through that to rank for Extremely competitive Very high paying effect keywords i mean That basic plan for windows page Probably Could be making five figures amongst Just that one page you know um So that shows you a really good example And the total linking rule domains they Have for this and given the size of the Niche is really not that high i mean You’re looking at i mean the top page Base vpn has a 169 in keyword domains 3 Vpn 67 then everything else is like 12 8 6 5 6 4 4 3 like this is nothing you Know um so I’m not saying that there’s nothing Shady behind it i did not find anything Shady but if you do let us know in the
Comments i guess Teach me a bit um but Otherwise yeah it shows you exactly how This quality internal linking also the Perfect siloing in the urls and Everything pays dividends when you do it Properly and so if you don’t want to Build too many links Obviously if you are in a much less Competitive niche than vpn which is very Likely because vpn outside is like top Five most competitive niches Um you can get a lot of bang for your Buck with just a few links and a proper Siloed website and so please emulate What these guys are doing because i Think that’s a really good example of What people should do they don’t want to Build too many links any comments on That i think it’s a really good example Actually this example question um so the Security.org has the Like forward slash vpn forward slash Best it’s all kind of like siloed in in That way yeah if a site does not Currently have that Is there any circumstance where they Should switch to that or should you Always stick with what you started with Ah I mean honestly like the the value of That is how to prove because A given site is always one way or the Other and very few people switch
Um so it’s like unless some huge site Decides to just swap that it’s very hard To why do a few people Because obviously if you change your Urls you’re like You have to redirect your old ones to a New ones otherwise your old links Basically just expired they link to a 404 links two four four basically don’t Count um And so and so historically redirects Have been diluting link juice a bit Right so it’s like you know You would lose maybe like five or ten Percent hard to tell but your medcast Would say say that at the time Recently in more recent history google Has said they don’t dilute They don’t dilute link juice through Redirects i believe the reason for that Is because they forced everyone to move To https and when you move to https you Redirect the http version of your site To https therefore They would have diluted the entire Internet by forcing ssl certificates Right and so like i can see why google Was like well okay maybe that’s not a Good rule um but still like if you’re I’ll say if you’re a classic seo um you Would probably try to avoid these with Rx because Inherently like it you still get that Feel that it’s not just it’s just not as
Good as like directly linking to your Page right um that’s why for example When there’s mo like if google says Google is quite interesting because they Say well we don’t dilute Link juice or like link equity or page Rank through redirects But if you have too many redirects in a Row they’ll tell you hey be careful So you know you’re like well which one Is it you know um and therefore Even one redirect does feel sub-optimal Especially in these extremely Competitive uh Like a market etc like i’ve changed urls On several posts even on a toy hacker Several times 95 of the time we lend Back exactly where we were um but you Again you have that five percent chance When something weird happens or like Google reprocesses your page and Re-decides that it actually should rank Lower or even higher sometimes uh and Therefore I tend to not be a fan of changing urls Even though If you follow the modern world of google It should be fine um it’s also hard to Demonstrate the value of that like hot Silence that’s what you call it like Subtitling would just be like having you Know the keyword in the url and just Internal linking or as hard sideways Would be like you know doing this vpn
Best or renting type thing like they Have on security.org Very very hard to tell how good it is i Would suggest people stick with what They have we have sites that have both And we have size that rank for both but For example the go side we sold was like Hot silos like that as well right uh and We built it um there is tutorials in the Toy hacker actually in tas I show how to do both actually Um and uh and but the thing is usually When you’re these kind of hot silos you Need to manage your content on pages and It’s a little bit more inconvenient than Managing through posts But you gain the ability to Uh edit Directly like a page The content of like these other pages so For example you know security.org has Uh security.org slash gpn slash best Torrenting Um but slash vpn slash best is their Best vpn they can edit that as well Whereas if it was a category on WordPress you know editing category Pages on wordpress is a pain in the ass It’s like unless you you do something It’s terrible you need to do redirects Et cetera it’s also it’s also so it Really depends What you want i don’t think one is Better than the other i usually just
Tell people to choose um Some niches i prefer silos some niches i Prefer outside for example the current Test site Is very very good for hard siloing just Because everything is like Sub-categorized And it’s very easy to classify but some Niches things maybe belong to two or Three categories and if they do you tend To prefer soft siloing so that you can Put the same post in multiple categories And internally kit from that so The answer is it depends It always depends All of these for that right Um but yeah It’s it’s i mean i’m i’m curious to hear Also what people think about it but i i It’s hard for me to give a ten tangible Proof that one is better than the other So it’s usually a feel for the nation Which one would work better Okay so that’s basically the hubs now Let’s talk about um the next one which Is if you want to rank for without Building links find sites that have very Few links in our ranking and copy their Keywords so Whenever i All the time pretty much i have the Ahrefs extension activated so whenever i Google the keyword i see the dr of sites Right so anytime i use google i see the
Outsides and very often i google stuff Related to the niches we’re working et Cetera Anytime i see a dr less than 20 side it Goes in my notes every single time and Whenever we are at a point where we have Decent content production resources but You know link building struggling is Bottlenecked they’re working on other Things etc I pull out these really low dl sites That i saw on page one of google and i Go and check their top pages in ahrefs And i’m able to queue content for Writers that will not require any link Building and grow my traffic now Depends on how you monetize right if you Don’t monetize with ads for example and You monetize only with affiliate it’s a Bit more tricky because Usually it’s more rare to find affiliate Keywords that are also very low Competition etc so um but overall if you Just take this habit of having a little Notepad or something or like a note on Your desktop or something And copy and paste the urls of any site That’s below the r20 that you see on Page one of google and go and check Their top Keywords or top pages rather i prefer That You will very often find Topics that you can write about where
You don’t need any links now there is Also a world of warning when i say that On a podcast a bunch of people are going To do that now and so the world of Warning is you probably should try to Get beyond the r20 with your own site so That people don’t do that to you because Otherwise you’re painting a target on Your back by being a low dr site that Has pretty good traffic actually that Golf site That we worked on remember at the Beginning we started growing it was the R3 and we were getting like quite a lot Of traffic Uh and i was like oh people are Gonna copy the out of it we really Need to grow the dr just for that and It’s like there was link building Campaigns that were just for the sake of Growing the dr so that copycats don’t Follow us but that’s something you need To be aware of when you’re ranking for Good competitive affiliate keywords and Your authority is low that is the Benchmark a lot of people who do keyword Research use and therefore you can De-qualify yourself from being your Target by just you know running you know Dr boost campaigns basically okay so now Let’s jump onto the next point which is Writing for zero search volume keywords And The more i go in seo
The less i give a about search Volume it’s kind of kind of how it goes So income school we’re right then we Shouldn’t use ever use keyword tools Because they’re inaccurate Yeah for sure no not really um it’s It’s it’s kind of the same as like If anything is not 100 accurate you Shouldn’t use it which is pretty much Everything in life right if you go and i Don’t know If you if you wear your seat belt and it Doesn’t protect you 100 of the time when There’s a car accident should you never Wear a seatbelt Are you asking me or is that Exactly it’s a rhetorical question but All i’m saying is like it’s not because Things are not 100 acres that they’re Not useful um and that’s definitely the Case with keyword tools i don’t think It’s like zero search volume doesn’t Mean that it doesn’t help and Overall i find the traffic metric you Get from cuba tools even though you’ve Made a video showing that they’re not That accurate Being a lot more interesting for me Because Really any given page ranks for hundreds Of keywords so looking at that one Keyword doesn’t make much sense and so This traffic metric that you get from Keyword tools instead
Gives you The Total amount of traffic a page might be Getting i mean the estimate that the Tool makes across all the long tail Keywords that page ranks for and that Means that Uh it’s going to be much more accurate Than Search volume for example and so but the Thing is like i would say 80 of seos Still do keyword research based on Search volume so you kind of like dodge The crowds by going from these for the Zero search volume keywords and Especially when you get to like the Lower end of search volume they tend to Be more inaccurate like if you’re Comparing like a thousand to ten Thousand or even like five thousand to Fifty thousand okay that’s that’s fair Enough like you get a good idea but like When you’re comparing like a 100 to zero It actually means almost nothing like These this tools are not that accurate And you can’t really trust them so i Actually have an example that i did so i Went on ahrefs and i searched for Deadlift and i put traffic uh volume Sorry zero to one Uh therefore like i was looking for Search volume zero but they didn’t let Me put two times zero and i put keyword Difficulty maximum five so i was looking
For something very simple and now i only Have like 20 kilos left and um The one one of the interesting keywords That i found was How to recover from deadlift back pain And i popped that keyword in the keyword Explorer um You know 0 to 10 search volume i think Qr difficulty one something like this But then you look at the traffic number Of the top ranking page and it’s in the Thousands right it’s like a lot they’re Getting a lot of long tail traffic and You know these are very low dr sites That are ranking i see number one is the R36 number three is the r3 number six is The r16 number seven is the r7 number Ten is dr one right so we’re talking i Mean dr1 is like i don’t think Even if we build the site and we build No link i think after six months it’s Still more than the r1 you know like It’s it’s very hard to beat dr1 for a Long time um so so it shows you like how Uncompetitive that keyword is now Obviously a dr1 doesn’t get like Thousands of traffic it gets 87 But you know that dlc3 gets 1173 traffic and that’s like a really Good keyword if you’re either monetizing With ads or if you’re selling like info Products but also you could sell Products here like you know you probably Need to do like a foam roll or something
Like this to actually like do like uh The all the exercises that you need to Recover from that pain and like reduce It and you can sell that as an affiliate And so like that shows you that i’m able To dodge the crowd up something that’s Pretty difficult i mean fitness is not Exactly the simplest niche there’s so Many sites etc and we’re finding very Very easy keywords without even trying That’s the first one i checked literally So that shows you the power of like zero Uh search volume keywords nobody’s Really looking at them and i think you Can get quite good traffic writing about These topics uh that everyone is Ignoring basically so that’s basically My next one how do you avoid that i mean If dr ones are on the pay on the first Page you can rank basically Uh any comments on this one no The next one that i’m going to show you Is going to be interesting and i’m going To also have an interesting example uh And that’s writing about topics that Couldn’t could get links naturally now i Know you’re probably rolling your eyes Like behind your head at this point when I say that and i understand that most Content does not get linked naturally it Doesn’t so it’s like i don’t care what Google says or what matters says etc but Some does and i think it’s fair to give That kind of credit to that and that
Credit to that kind of content and that Sata is possible and a good example of That that you might have heard of is Statistics content right um if you write Content that people will refer to when They write content it’s kind of like Meta you know um then you will be Collecting links and statistics content Works really well and my example for This one Is actually backlinko brian dean um Very impressive seo stats i mean 500 000 Organic according to ahrefs dr89 Uh really really impressive honest You’re probably the biggest seo he has More traffic than most now or something Like it’s crazy um But what’s interesting is like Nada he’s kind of like at the top how Does he grow how does he get a lot of Links and You know when you put backlinko in hr Sure you find all his blog posts etc but You’ll find some Interesting statistics pages so for Example Branding has a page called instagram Users with all the stats for how many People use instagram how many people log In every day etc nothing to do with seo Right and you’ll be like well instagram It’s kind of social media it’s kind of The same etc well okay but here’s the Same page for whatsapp
How is that how is that related it’s not Even a social media it’s a messaging app Right uh and he also does that to Collect links and that page has 418 Linking root domains right so it’s it’s A pretty good link enough for the site Not as big as his biggest blog post to Be honest but you’ll still be like well That’s kind of digital etc and like That’s kind of like communication Marketing you could argue et cetera okay He has the same page for roblox do you Know what roblox is mark i don’t know I would be worried if you were if you Knew but i knew so you should be worried Um roblox is actually a game kids play Like literally like six years old kids Play online right it’s kind of like Fortnight for younger kids even um and Uh and brian dean has a page with all The roblox stats for example uh that Page doesn’t i mean has 257 inky root domains so same uh it’s It’s a huge linker for for him and uh And he’s scaling the out of this i Found more than 50 pages like that on On uh backlinko including one with Bumble users for example as well or it’s Like the dating app as well this one you I don’t know if you know be careful your Watch with your wife might be uh maybe It was it was it was coming out right at The end of my single year so i’m not too Familiar with it unfortunately
Never never used any of these either but I know what it is from talking to single Friends but anyway You know he does that as well so i think The argument of like oh it’s kind of Related to seo et cetera i think we Passed that at this point brandon has Found uh his niche he’s just writing He’s just writing a bunch of statistics Post that’s a way for him to scale link Building without doing outreach i Believe and just leveraging his dr89 Site and he ranks naturally for it and Then he just gets things passively That’s what he does And that is you can do that on smaller Niches right obviously he’s doing it for The big big stuff but If you’re doing something like let’s say You have A blog about siamese cats or paintball Let’s say paintball because we love the Paint broken right I think if you wrote a blog post about Paintball stats or like how many people Play paintball uh in the world or Licensed to a club or something like This etc i think whenever a journalist Writes about that and it’s pretty easy To rank for that like i’m pretty sure There’s zero competition uh you would be Getting links and and i’m not saying It’s going to be your entire link Building strategy but it is going to be
One of the pillars of it and it’s going To earn you link specifically without Doing it and you don’t have to do link Building when you do that you just need To build a page So trying to brainstorm ideas for these Kind of statistics pages is a really Good idea for people who don’t want to Be building things Uh so that is the the last the next Tactic actually that’s the last one Because you spoiled my last one yeah do You need to so brian dean’s obviously When he writes a Post there’s a very good chance he’s Going to be number one for it just Because his dr is so massive Um If you’re you know perhaps not such an Established site Can you reliably Use that tactic or You know you’re not necessarily going to Rank number one organically and Therefore Pick up Uh organic links from it when people are Searching and look at the number one Result I mean what i think is like you can Always find keywords that would work so Like i think if you have a dr 20 Paintball site you can rank number one For paintball statistics or something
Like you don’t need a big site you You can be dr one But you don’t need to decide at all it’s Quite easy um and then you could Brainstorm like Sub topics of that so like for example i Know because i’ve done so many examples On paintball like tipman is one of the Paintball gun Pinball gun brands You could write something about tipman Statistics or something like that or Like a brand uh like kind of like uh id Thing or whatever and you could you Could potentially get links to that etc So you can kind of like niche down on These things obviously the smaller the Topic the less things you’re going to Get right So the problem then is like how many Links is that going to yield Um so you need to kind of find that Balance between like How large the topic is And You know how what is your likelihood Likelihood of ranking but if you do i Think most sites can do something about It um And and can Do that especially if you combine that With these zero search volume keywords Because Especially for that you’re not looking
For a lot of traffic you’re looking for Traffic from people writing articles in Your niche and it’s not a lot of people Um so forget about search volume if you See the keyword pop in hiv since zero Search volume write that statistics Keyword you might Get links over time um one thing that I want to note as well is if you want This to work better You probably need to update this page Once a year or something with the new Stats and so on if the page is old You’re less likely probably to be picked Up and if you update it once a year You’re also more likely to kind of like Bump up in ranking year after year you Know and eventually conquer the number One spot um so Brandon does it for the big guys like For instagram roblox etc you know roblox Is like one of the biggest games in the World et cetera That’s basically all my tactics you Spoiled the last one where i said buy Your com buy competitors and redirect The sites so same as like expired Domains so you spell that one but that Is pretty much the tactics i wanted to Share with people on You know Not building links and building sites Instead and i think Especially if you start with an expired
Domain and you don’t pick a two big Niche it’s quite possible to make it Happen But know that as things get more Difficult you will have to dabble within Building even if it’s not a huge part of What you do basically so that’s Basically it any final wars of wisdom no All right well thank you for joining us For this episode if you enjoy it don’t Forget to thumb up subscribe like Comments all of that And we’ll see you in two weeks for Another episode bye It’s in the thousands it’s a lot of Traffic and so Let’s cut this that was the next point Actually I was like how does that connect back to My point i was thinking like where is he Going with this one right yeah that was Okay cut this uh actually i have an Example i’ll just like you go back to That like same i’m sorry You can put that in a blue pose if you Want i don’t care
