SEO Link Monster – The Final Review

February 15th, 2012 No comments

Hey Guys,
Mike here for the final review for SEO Link Monster.  If you’re looking for a little more in depth information on what SEO Link Monster actually does please read my previous post.  This will just be a short unbiased review on whether or not you should purchase this program.  If youre looking for the actual product site, please click here.

Simply put, what SEO Link Monster has to offer is not anything unique.  All it is is a proprietary group of blogs that auto-posts your content for backlinks to your money site.  The links are of varied Page Rank (mostly PR1 and PR2) but, thankfully, do not get deleted, as they are on a network you are paying to appear on.  The biggest thing that SEO Link Monster has going for it is the ability to drip feed spun content to these networks, and the knowledge that your links will be live and won’t be deleted right away by the sites owners.  The fees for the product aren’t outrageous, but they are recurring, which I would see as a negative.

You could, theoretically, create your own blog network and do exactly what SEO Link Monster does, problem is, it would cost you a whole lot more than what they charge you to do, and would require a HUGE time investment to do.  My father always told me, do what you are good at, and pay other people for what they are good at.  This is kind of how I treat SEO Link Monster, and other products like this.  Should you buy it?  Yes, but I wouldn’t look at this as a long term investment.  If it were me, I would sign up, use it for about 3 months, get all the link juice that those sites have to offer, and then cancel my subscription once my rankings either stall, or achieve the desired status.  There is no point in continuing to abuse the blog network they have created with more and more backlinks to your site.  I am a firm believer that over-saturating a domain with links to your site will actually hurt your google rankings, not help.  3 months should be plenty, but you could do it for 6 months and squeeze every last drop of link juice it has to offer.

The interface is really easy to use, which you can see for yourself here, and there are no real major bugs to speak of with regards to posting, and the like.  You can easily use a tool like Scrapebox to find the backlinks, check their age, etc and be sure that you are getting what you paid for.

What kind of results should you look for?  It’s an impossible question to ask.  If you’re in the weight loss industry, it will be a whole hell of a lot harder to rank, even using this tool, than for someone who sells ice to Eskimos.   But, I saw positive net results for my main target keywords.  They are all extremely competitive keywords with between 400k and 1.2 million phrase match websites.  On average, after using SEO Link Monster, my sites hit a rank of between 4 and 9.  Some are stuck at the 12-20 range, and I do have 1 that is actually sitting pretty at #2, but by and large ive gotten them all on the first page, and “above the fold”.

My recommendation:  Use it, Abuse it, Dump it.  Sounds cold and callus, but it’s true.  This is a good tool to use for a little while, but it has it’s finite drawbacks, and unless the crew plans on adding a LOT more blogs, it’s not worth a long term commitment.

SEO Link Monster Update

February 2nd, 2012 No comments

Hi all, Mike here again,

The “powers that be” have informed me that I can not use screenshots (legally anyway) at the moment regarding this  software CAN Upload a screenshot.  I’ll see if I can get them to bend the rules, but right now written descriptions about SEO Link Monster are going to have to suffice.  This won’t be the full review, that should be coming in the next day or 2, this is just a sorta overview of the software.
So, what exactly is SEO Link Monster?  Well, basically, it is search engine marketing tool that works by building backlinks from blogs.  If you’ve done any marketing at all in your lifetime you know the sheer power of blog posts that link to your site, especially when the anchor text is for a keyword you are targeting.  So, for example, you could go in to wordpress, create a blog, write an article, and in that article have a link coming back to your site with the anchor text being what keyword you want to link for.  For example let’s say I am trying to sell green widgets.  I can go to wordpress, write an article about how awesome the green widgets are, and in the article embed a link to my site.

Sounds easy right?  Well, sure it is.  Who can’t do that?  I can do that.  You can do that.  My neighbors 92 year old grandmother can do it.  The problem is that 1 link isn’t going to be enough.  So, you have to create more.  Depending on the market you are in, it can be hundreds, even thousands of links.  On top of that, it’s not just enough to have links pointing to your site, you need to have diversified links, you need to have link wheels, link pyramids, link webs, all working together to point to your site and help your search engine rankings.  Right?

There are programs out there, like one of the best search engine marketing tools ever SenukeX, that can build thousands and thousands of links for you.  The problem here is that many of the blogs will delete them, rather quickly, as spam.  Why do they delete them?  Because to get past Google’s duplicate content penalty you need to spin the articles using Senuke’s embedded spinner.  Spinning basically means to rewrite an article using synonyms for words to create a unique article, with the same general theme.  When you have a spun article that will get you past Google’s duplicate content filter, you then have a problem.  The article is complete nonsense when read by a human.

For example.  Let’s look at the sentence “I love to eat ice cream”.  Now, if that is spun at a high rate, you can have the spun sentence coming out something like “I adore to consume frozen water milk”.  To the computer, it means the same thing, to us, it means utter nonsense.  Get it?

So, with the links getting deleted, you need to figure out a way to have these articles posted, but not deleted.  Enter SEO Link Monster.  What it does is basically remove the blog deletion from the equation.  The system allows you to post blog comments to blogs that are owned by these manufacturers within their own link building network.  They limit the amount of posts you can make to keep the system from looking too spammy to Google, and they don’t delete anything.  They also have high page ranks which deliver much needed link juice to your site.  End result?  Better Google rankings!

OK, more later.  I have to work on the full review, and it seems like that’s what this is turning into as I write it.  I’ll try to get this done in the next day or so in preparation for the launch.
