SEO Link Vine is a website run by Mr Brad Callen, who started off his Internet Marketing career doing SEO the long, hard way: by manually requesting and accepting backlinks from exchanges. Through this tedious activity, he managed to rank for high volume (but low paying) keywords like, “lose weight” and “how to lose weight”. He then had an e-book about weight loss ghostwritten for him, slapping it up on the site that he was ranking #1 for. He was even beating sites like Jenny Craig at the time!
If you’ve been dabbling in SEO for any length of time, then you’d be aware that building backlinks until your website appears on the first page of Google is no mean feat. It takes grit, it takes determination and it takes consistency… sort of like writing one article a day for your blog or website. Brad Callen, seeing that these were two of the biggest problems in Internet Marketing formed SEO Link Vine to solve them both simultaneously.
Regardless of on-page or off-page SEO characteristics, ultimately the most important thing about getting your website ranked on the first pgae for a particular keyword is how many backlinks it has from other sites. Simply put, the site with the most backlinks for a particular keyword, wins. In another Internet Marketing world, there are those who need fresh content for their websites, but are unable to outsource it or simply don’t have the time to write everyday.
This is how Mr Brad Callen helps Internet Marketers who need backlinks or content: for those who write the content, they’re allowed to publish their content on other people’s blogs and put three backlinks per article. Depending on the topic of the article, this can get up to 30 publishes over the course of a couple of weeks. Have a few of these articles being dripped through the system, and you can easily build 100 backlinks a day. The people who publish the content are allowed to do so, as long as they don’t alter it in any way. Brad Callen kicks out people from the community who do so.
There is the concern that the backlink quality of a lot of the sites that publish content are quite low and there is good reason for believing this; SEO Link Vine accepts virtually all websites entered into the community. However, as we all know, SEO is not just about quality linkage, but quantity as well. When it comes down to it, if you have more backlinks than the other site on the SERP, you will be ranked higher… in theory anyway.
Hundreds, if not thousands of Internet Marketers have seen their website climb the SERPs at rates faster than they ever could imagine, thanks to this dynamic community. I myself have been able to rank for a keyword that I’ve never even appeared in the SERPs for. People who can’t be bothered writing content now have so much that they don’t even know what to begin doing with it all. They too are achieving rankings, thanks to the power of organic SEO and time.
If you’re after an ethical Internet Marketer to emulate, don’t look any further than Brad Callen. This community he has formed is but one example of the quality you can expect if you work with him.
