30 Minute Backlinking?, opinions please Options

[Joshua Sciarrino]

Alright, so I stumbled upon this and say our beloved DazzLinDonna cited as a good product.

What do you guys think of this '30 minute backlinks' service/product?

Sounds pretty good. I doubt it's an easy way to get through the entire SEO process but does sound like it aids an SEO's efforts.

Your opinions are all more than welcomed.

The programs provides a way to build link backs to a domain in fast and easy way. I am testing it right now for one of our pages. The quality of the links however is not so great. For that one particular page which we are testing, we were able to create about 30 new link backs. That however hardly pushed our ranking on Google. I should be able to create couple of hundred more links by the end.

I might be able to provide a better insight within few more weeks.

I'd love to hear your findings

I actually didn't recommend anyone buy it. It does sound that way, based upon the quote used, but that's not exactly what the quote says. I checked out the video and it gave me some information I didn't have before, and gave me ideas for a few things, and that sparked my "brilliant" quote. Nevertheless, I'm afraid it will probably be abused quite a bit, until it becomes just another spammy thing, and I'll look like I'm endorsing spam. I'm not. Still, there's an underlying concept there, that if done well, can be useful. So...take that for what it's worth, but don't misquote me. Just keeping the record straight.

[Joshua Sciarrino]

Sorry for the misquote. Lol.

In my opinion, that's the key right there.

It's a bit like a Ponzi, or pyramid, scheme, I think, in the sense that it will work for early adopters, but will likely fall apart fairly quickly. The idea is pretty simple. Create a screensaver centered on your main keyword phrase and then let people download it from one of the many, many script directories (like hotscripts.com, et al). Programs to create custom screensaver executables have been around for at least five or six years, and every script directory will link to your site in their listing. Easy peasy.

The problem is that a screensaver executable is of rather limited use. I won't say they're a dime a dozen, but I sure wouldn't put the price much above a buck. The script directories are going to accept a few early adopters, but they're not going to allow their sites to become a landfill for screensavers of questionable value. Eventually, it'll be as difficult to get a screensaver into a script directory as it is to get a real estate site into DMOZ.

The idea, as Donna said, is a good one. But instead of trying to get away with limited value scripts, you should come up with a really good idea for a program in your vertical and then pay someone to write it for you. You'll be able to get all those links from the script directories legitimately. And, I would think, sleep a little better at night?

I think that is exactly the secret to getting the idea behind the program to work. You have to invest in paying someone to write something particular to your domain. Of course that does cost more but that is the only meaningful way to receive and sustain quality links.

[Joshua Sciarrino]

So, the idea is create a script and submit that to script directory? then have a bunch of backlinks because of the script directory additions???

If this is the concept, you just saved me 97$ (i think that's how much they are selling it for) and I can create scripts or get a buddy to create easy and custom scripts.

Please reply (answers 'is this the concept of the product of '30min-backlinks'')

[projectphp]

That page is bad as well. The form / call to action should be next to the video. I didn't ever realise I was suppossed to scroll!

And free first then the $97? That page needs work!

[Ron Carnell]

Honestly, FM? Beats me.

I haven't seen any more of the actual course than you have, I'm afraid. What I surmised in my earlier post was simply the results of examining her backlinks, and rather cursorily at that. You could easily do the same and reach your own conclusions?

[zero_digit]

IMO this would a lot of help, it will determine how far is the knowledge of being an SEO, this is a very good resources....

Right, and it was the easy way to submit them that I didn't know about, but the general concept gave me some really great ideas, and that's what I loved about it. Really got my brain going.

I guess so. But she does spend a bit of time showing you how to create scripts and how to submit them correctly to hundreds of directories. If you are planning to go down that route, it might be worth while to watch the video.

[Joshua Sciarrino]

I might take that up. We will see though, I'm juggling like 1,000 different things pertaining to the web.
