I will be including these terms in a dummy paragraph below.  These are the top twenty terms that were listed this morning on Google Trends.  What I will do is bold each term and also use tagaroo to tag each term in this post.  Then we will see, by using my blog’s analytics – how many visits that I received to the Residuals and Royalties blog over the weekend that were a direct result of these hot search terms.  I will come back to this post on Monday and give you the results.  So here is my paragraph… 

It was announced in the Kayla Manson today show that Russell Crowe died while doing a google background check.  Many people were very disappointed with this news and a few people even decided not to attend the Blackhawks parade.  One attendee, named mister Arthur Laffer was checking out the parade float that was shaped like carcharodon megalodon and he decided that he’d rather go home and check out the world cup tv schedule.  My friends Jeff Koons and Jeremy Roenick were drinking a skinny girl margarita when they found out that the Kayla Today Show was doing a special on heightism.  The show was having a special guest star named Tom Otterness and he was doing a scene from the Upright Citizens Brigade.  Tom announced that he was joining the Pac 10 and he and Anita Baker were then going out to eat Jimmy Johns and to look for missing sailor Abby Sunderland. 

Total Visits from Keywords:

At the very least, the results from this experiment should be interesting!

Best regards,

In order to give Residuals and Royalties a boost, I just hired the team at Lease-a-SEO.com to provide me with a ton of backlinks.  For $349 I am getting 25 Wiki pages, 625 links and 100% guaranteed indexing.  Lease-a-SEO is providing me with editorial links which are supposedly the most trusted by Google and other search engines. 

Lease-a-SEO provides 100% white hat SEO techniques and all of their articles are human made and researched by niche experts.  Wiki links are highly valued by Google because of the human edited and moderation value much like DMOZ links are one of the most valued links. Thus Wiki sites have high trust rank and authority and we have selected the very best of those sites to place valuable content with links on about your niche linking to your website and/or money making pages. 

This is what I am getting with my Lease-a-SEO package… 

• I will get 25 hosted content pages on High profile Wiki properties.
• I will get 200 to 300 word articles on each Wiki property.
• They will make use of niche relevant Images and video (where allowed) to spice up my pages!
• Each article and Wiki page will be SEO optimized to its max without spamming.
• I will get 2-5 links on each wiki page created to my website and money making pages = up to 125 High value in-content WIKI TYPE Editorial LINKS!
• Each Wiki page will be bookmarked to 20 high profile social bookmarking sites passing an additional 500 link power to my site! 

I am excited at the potential of this SEO program and all of these links should be live within the next 7 to 10 days.  I can’t wait to see the results!  My goal is to find the most up to date ways to keep my blog atop the search engines – I am hoping that Lease-a-SEO.com turns out to be a great resource for those bloggers looking to rank quickly and effectively for difficult terms.  I also hired Lease-a-SEO to get my limo service ranked in a city here in Colorado and I am eager to see the results for a much less competitive term.  I am targeting the terms “Colorado Springs Limo” and “Colorado Springs Limousine” – I am currently on page 3 for both terms.   I’ll be sure and come back to this post and let you know the results of my experience with Lease-a-SEO.  If this works, I may also pursue getting to # 1 for the term “residual income“– I am currently third overall on Google for this term!

I have done some research and I have discovered that many bloggers are now sponsoring Wordpress themes in order to slowly build valuable backlinks to their blog or website.  You see, when you sponsor a Wordpress them you can have the designer set up backlinks at the bottom of every page of the template that cannot be removed by the person who is downloading the theme.  This means that if 100 people download this free theme and you have sponsored it, you will be getting 100 backlinks to your website.  In fact, each time they add a new post or blog page with the same template – you are getting even more backlinks! 

While this process takes time and is not an immediate way to climb the search engines, it is a great idea for long term link building.  I just sponsored my first Wordpress theme which included four backlinks and anchor text of my choice and a full sponsorship for only $15.  In fact, I will even get a submission report from the theme designer showing that he submitted my theme to 100 free Wordpress theme websites and my theme will be available for download on all of these websites.  

If you too would like to sponsor a Wordpress theme, you can find plenty of options on the Digital Point Forums.  I used a designer named Bill and you can see the theme that I purchased here: Night City Swirl Theme.  Bill has plenty of other Wordpress themes available for purchase and he was prompt in answering any question that I had about the process of sponsoring a theme. 

If you have had success building backlinks by sponsoring Wordpress themes, please let us know by commenting below.  If you have any pointers for those who might be interested in sponsoring a theme – we would love to hear about it!  

You can view available themes for sponsorship here: Digital Point Forums

Linkwheeler.com is different than other SEO programs and to tell you the truth I don’t understand exactly how it all works.  They will be creating an in-depth “link wheel” for me with multiple links to my blog.  I do know that I will be getting inbound links from sites with PR rankings of 4 to 9.  I am hoping this helps me get to where I need to be in Google’s rankings.  If this system fails, I am pretty much done with paying for backlinks – I will simply create them on my own.

I opted for Link Wheeler’s Gold package which includes the following…

Link Wheel Gold Package – 52 Total Backlinks Created – $229

30 Web 2.0 Properties with 30 Unique Articles of 200+ Words (PR 4 – PR 9)
15 Article Submissions with 15 Unique Articles of 200+ Words
6 Blog Posts with 6 Unique Articles of 200+ Words – All unique IP’s
1 Custom Video (Uploaded to YouTube.com & used across the link wheel)
RSS / Feed Submission to 100+ ping list
Up to 4 Keywords / 4 URLs

I have chosen four keywords: make money online, residual income, paid online surveys – these will all link to the Residuals and Royalties blog.  I have also chosen the keyword “how to start a limousine business” which will link to my ebook landing page.  I am currently on page 8 of Google for “make money online” and at the top of page 2 for “residual income”.  I expect to be at the top of page 1 for “residual income” after this experiment.  Anything less would be unsatisfactory. 

As far as the term “make money online” goes, I cannot expect linkwheeler to magically get me to the top of page 1 on Google for this very difficult search term.  I would be satisfied simply winding up on page 3.   Only time will tell if linkwheeler is able to achieve these goals for me.  For now I cannot recommend linkwheeler to any of my readers since I don’t know what the results will be.  I will post my current Google rankings today and then I will post my improvements in two weeks, one month and in two months.  So you can consider this review of linkwheeler.com a work in progress for now.

Target Term                Currently          2 Weeks          1 Month        2 Months

make money online          Page 8         Page 2                           

residual income                Page 2          Page 1

***UPDATE: LinkWheeler WORKS!!!  I am on page 2 for “make money online” and page 1 for “residual income.”***

If you search the term “residual income” on Google, this blog – Residuals and Royalties is now on page two. If you have a blog or website that you are trying to get ranked high on Google for a certain term you may wonder how I achieved page two status.  Only one short month ago, my blog was floating somewhere between page 25 and 30 for the term “residual income“.  In less than a month I got to page 2!

As you can imagine this has given me a large increase in traffic to my blog and has greatly increased my Adsense earnings.  So how did I do it?  The answer is LinkVana.  LinkVana is a program that allows you to post articles with one-way links to you blog or website all over the web. In fact, they actually post the articles for you.  You have to write the articles yourself.

Whether you know it or not, the way Google ranks websites and blogs is by the number of inbound anchored text links you have leading to your site.  LinkVana allowed me to post about 40 articles using the term “residual income” as my anchored text.  This was crucial in my blog’s quick rise to the top.  Some terms are harder to conquer than others – for example if I wanted to tackle “make money online” – I would literally have to have thousands of links to my blog to get to page 1 on Google. 

The key is to start with terms that don’t have a lot of competition.  I highly suggest LinkVana to anyone who want to gain traffic and increase hits.  There is a fee involved, a hefty one – $147 for one month.  What I did was simply join for one month and create all of my links and then discontinued the service.  If I want to conquer another keyword term, I will simply join again for another month.  I will make that $147 back in Adsense earning in a few months anyway, thanks to my high ranking.
