Google Sniper - Patching The Holes
On November 23, 2009 in Business
George Brown’s Google Sniper product launched on October 15 of 2009, and has been achieving a high volume of sales since its release. It is a complete system for making money online by building mini-sites. While Google Sniper works, it does omit teaching one critical area of SEO, but you can fill in that knowledge gap with this article.
The foundation of Google Sniper involves picking low competition keywords, creating highly themed content with excellent on-page optimization, and pre-selling your visitors with a review or story. As mentioned in my Google Sniper review, George goes into a great deal of detail on each of these topics. The only issue is that if you mess up on your keyword selection, you’re not getting on the first page of Google without some link building.
If you’ve done any internet marketing before, you know it’s usually not that easy to find a perfect keyword. Often, a Google Sniper site made by a newbie will land on the second or third page of Google, which rarely sees enough traffic to get any sales.
So how do we fix this problem?
Well, standard SEO doctrine says it’s link building time. Well, you’ve got a problem, because George hates link building, so he doesn’t really talk much about it. As such, adopters of the system may have difficulty finding ideas for building links, so I’ve included a brief primer here.
1. Social Bookmarking: George covers this well in Google Sniper. It is worth noting that most bookmarks do not pass page rank due to the no-follow tag.
2. Link Wheels: This is the process of creating blog posts on various Web 2.0 properties such as Blogger, Weebly, Vox, etc. with links pointing back to your site. They are made into a “wheel” of link juice by linking each property to the next, until finally linking the last property to the first.
3. Profile Links: A lot of sites where you can register a user account will let you post a link to your site. Check out MTV.com and MacUpdate for starters.
4. Blog Commenting: Find blogs that you can leave smart, relevant comments on, and post using your anchor text as your name and don’t forget to put in your URL!
5. Article Submission: Write good articles and submit them to good article directories. You get a resource box at the end of your article where you can put a short bio or a call to action followed by a link to your money site. Not only do you get a backlink out of this, but these articles usually rank well in Google, so you’ll get some traffic out of the deal too.
With the 5 techniques above, you should be able to boost your Google rankings significantly, even on competitive keywords. With this knowledge, you’ve now filled the only major gap in the Google Sniper system, and you’re ready to take the internet by storm. Hurry up and get started building those sniper sites, your internet fortune is waiting!
