Using Multi Combinations to get No 1 slots in Google within days

Hi Gang,

I’ve been writing recently about the success we’ve been getting over the past few Months with combining the twin power of good Press Releases and then hitting them hard with associated support practices chief amongst whom are SLS.

The process goes in this order:

1.    Keyword Research. In our case this is fairly tightly focused and widespread as to be honest we don’t want to spend too much time fighting a variety of battles so we want Niches that we can get into fairly fast. By fast I mean hours rather than days if possible

2.    Drafting the Press Release. Now as far as our main aim is to get into Niches quickly we also want to make sure that wherever possible our Chosen key phrase is right at the beginning of the body text. This is because at the moment Google is sourcing its Meta Data (i.e. the data it uses as part of its ranking algorithm) from the first 300 Characters of the Body Text. Now when you take into account that this also includes the beginning information:

(EMAILWIRE.COM October 17, 2011) – sample date

then basically you are down to the first 145-155 Characters so our technique is put your Key phrase in first and then we usually close it with a question mark to make it isolated.

3.    Press Release Submission. Now the Service we use and one that we’ve run Webinars over is this one: http://www.warriorplus.com/linkwso/5lmj33/368 and yes this is an affiliate link but then I have to keep the present Mrs Morgan as happy as I can :-) . The real reason we use and recommend this Service is that quite simply, we’ve found Dennis and Eric to be the best suppliers and have the best after sales and support going. For unlimited Press Releases the current rate (whatever that is) is vastly under priced but as I say, it’s the fact that they deliver every time with the Press Releases and deliver promptly. At the moment we have anywhere between 1-2 per day going through per day and by and large without any issues at all. If there are any issues and there very rarely are (I think I’ve had one problem release) the after sales support is so good they by and large tell you there is a problem before you have any chance of finding out.

4.    Promoting the Clippings Report. Usually a few days after the Press Release has emerged and been submitted they issue a clippings report. Now I have prepared a few videos covering this but will edit them all into one master video but the basics of the process is this. The Clippings report contains about 50-60 Urls of where you can find your Press Release. Take these Urls and using any one of a number of services, mash these Urls into one RSS Feed and then submit this RSS Feed into Yahoo Pipes and then run the pipe. Take the Pipes RSS Feed and submit via your favourite RSS Submitter and hey presto, you have Yahoo all over your links like a rash and also via redirects; you have links to all of your individual clippings from Yahoo. Not bad eh?

Next up you can repeat this exercise with Google Reader and suddenly you have links to your clippings from Google. Finally we take the RSS feed that we’ve created and then submit it through SLS as well as a number of the key Clippings Urls (the ones where the master site has a domain rank of over 5) and then promote as per normal. We usually only hit about 6-7 of the Urls as this is enough to make sure that these PR Urls have enough grunt behind them to dip in and out of Page 1 in Google usually very quickly.

I’ve just recorded a Client Case Study video that shows us submitting a Press Release on November 7th and by November 10th (less than 3 days later) we had notched up 2 No 1 slots for the clients inner page, one No 2 and the rest were 5, 6 and 7 slots. All six terms were on Page 1 and the Press Releases in this case hit Page 1 on five out of the six occasions and on the sixth the PR was at No 12.

I can’t reveal the niche or Key phrase at present but once I’ve got the client permission to do so (and I expect this in a few weeks time) then I will release the videos free of charge to members as a case study exercise. You can appreciate that we have to respect the Client wishes first and foremost and once they feel that their Campaigns will no longer be compromised then we will be able to proceed.

To back up and support these claims, I’ve shown a limited number of the videos to certain select SLS Members and their confirmations supporting our assertions can be found here: http://simpleleveraging.com/slschat/index.php/topic,190.0.html

There are additional aspects to this type of promotion that make it so successful and I’ll cover these in later newsletters but the key thing to it all is that taking these Press Releases and using SLS and a combination of other factors really means that you can get into niches very quickly.

Usual deal, if anyone has any questions then by all means post in the Forum or just email me by return and I’ll try and work my way through as many as I can as quickly as I can.

How to own 95% of Google in Under 24 hours?

Yes you read it right correctly, this is how we took a particular term that was OK a very tightly focused niche term, but one that had adverts running as far as Page 2 in Google and therefore was making money (or so Google thought so) and we ended up “owning” 95% of Google in under 24 hours.

Actually astute viewers of the video when it comes out will spot that we actually did this in just less than 13 hours!

So what did we do?

First in broad match our Press Release for the Client hit the No 2 slot out of 309 million pages in 13 hours and in narrow match we ended up with our Press Release taking 19 out of the top 20 slots in Google in the same period

Now the video, though having been recorded, is not going to appear for another 14 days or so as we are live in the midst of the Campaign for the Client and to be blunt, I don’t want any enterprising folks out there “nicking our niche” but the video proof is there and when I deem it safe the video will come out to our members only download area.

So how was this done?

  1. Careful Keyword Research.
  2. Timing
  3. Proper and planned use of META Data

Firstly as Myra and I discussed in our recent Web Discussion, it was all down to careful Keyword Research for the right term for the client. Secondly as this particular Season Campaign has just got underway I guess our timing was pretty hot in that we hit the tracks running just before the previous Seasonal campaign had actually ended. Thirdly and last of all we made sure that our MEAT Data for the Keyword Research was included right up at the front of the Press Release.

Now astute Google watchers will know that Google have fine-tuned their algorithm recently and for the time being seem to be using for the Meta Inserts in the SERPS, the first 300 Characters of the main body copy of the piece you are trying to optimise for.

Now the Golden Rule here is to try and make sure you get your main Key phrase inserted right there at the start of your piece. Now this is not new and has been standard SEO practice for years but it did seem to have gone slightly out of fashion recently but now appears to have come back to the fore in Campaigns or so our research has shown.

So given the fact that in Press Releases our distributor automatically assigns the first 300 characters to the Meta description and this includes the beginning information, for example:

(EMAILWIRE.COM, October 17, 2011)

This means it shortens your ability to use the keywords in the first 145-155 characters in the meta description that Google displays before it truncates. So make use of your keywords in the Meta description early on, ideally right in the first part of the first sentence.

Anyway enough of this. I’ll get the video put into the Members only support area of the Forum within the next 14 days or so but to further add proof to the fact that we’re not sensationalising this, I’ve released the video to a couple of SLS members to get them to verify that we’re not making this up. I’ll get them to add their comments to back up our claims.
