*This is the first post in a series focusing on creating mobile apps – from idea to the store. Stay up-to-date by following me on Facebook or twitter.
One of my goals this year was to diversify my income and create a mobile app.
The biggest problem I faced was coming up with an idea that I felt comfortable investing in.
Creating mobile apps isn’t cheap (at least I thought) and you’re not guaranteed a return on your investment.
I had many ideas on my plate, but none that I wanted to pull the trigger and actually have developed.

**Update 11/19/2012: The guys at Link Emperor just made a few considerable improvements to the program, even fixing one of my main gripes! First they added the ability to do tier link building, completely hands off. And they even take it a step further by only juicing up the best tiers based on their built-in algorithm. Secondly, you now have full-control over the types of links built to your site! I believe this is especially important in the current climate of the SEO world!
Link Emperor is another one of those link building services that claims to be totally hands-off, building you a multitude of links completely on autopilot. But, does it deliver? Continue reading my Link Emperor review
If you’re into the whole SEO thing and frequent blogs/forums etc. then you’ve probably heard of the penguin update…
And you’re probably sick of hearing about it – or more so the speculation and mass hysteria.
So, for me personally, I plan on looking past the speculation and clearing the waters the only way I know how…
Through testing on my personal sites!
So, what does this have to do with my niche site? Well, this particular site was kicked square in the nuts by the penguin.
Now, where most people would give up or cry about how evil Google is, I plan on taking the lemons Google gave us and making lemonade!
A few things:
Testing
I have a mixed bag of sites – some affected negatively and some actually gained ground.
Two of my sites I created at the same time and have the exact same backlinking portfolio, meaning I only used one service for both of these sites, yet one gained ground while the other fell off the map on the exact same day – April 24th.
Because of this, I plan on focusing on on-page factors first. There are a few glaring differences between the two sites, especially when it comes to content, outbound links, etc. Continue reading niche site update #5
I’m about to show you how to be 30x more productive with your SEO efforts…
And like a lot of the methods I use, this little tip/tool is absolutely FREE!
But, first I want to bore you with a quick story about myself.
I’m very meticulous (nice way of saying I suffer from OCD – thanks mom) in that I track and plan most everything I do.
For example:
I have a spreadsheet set up for all of my workouts which detail every rep and pound I’ve lifted over the last ten years…
I have my diet plan written out in detail, displaying my caloric, carb, protein and fat goals for each day, displayed in my kitchen… Continue reading to learn how to turn Excel into an SEO powerhouse
I’ve been strangely addicted to that show on National Geographic Channel called Doomsday Preppers.
You know, the show where various people reveal their plans for survival when, as they all seem to put it, “shit hits the fan”!
Weirder yet, it was my wife who turned me onto the show…
Anyways, I couldn’t help but notice the glaring similarities between the show and SEO.
After all, BuildMyRank, ALN, High PR Society and a few other blog networks recently met their doom.
And, unfortunately, so did the livelihood of a lot of IM’ers who relied on those networks for their rankings.
First, let’s cover a few facts:
- Search engines are constantly evolving.
- It’s getting increasingly harder to rank your site/keep it ranked. Still not necessarily difficult, but just think about how easy it was 5 years ago!
- You never know when the next algorithm is going to hit and your site is going to drop off the map.
If you’re running an online business who’s success relies on the search engines then doomsday is inevitable, as I’m sure you’re well aware. Continue reading how Doomsday Preppers can help your business thrive
In this edition of my Fiverr gig review, I will be looking at 4 more SEO related gigs to see what impact thay had, if any, on my test site rankings.
Plus, I want to uncover a few other Fiverr gigs I use and the reasons why.
And in case you missed it, check out part one of my SEO Fiverr Gig Review.
So, let’s get started!
Transform your article to powerpoint and PDF and submit it for backlinks for $5
This gig basically takes an article you provide, turns it into a powerpoint and pdf file, then submits it to the top 10 document sharing and slide sharing sites. They then ping the backlinks for, as they say, faster indexing.

This niche site is now about two months old and not only has it made it in the top 10 for all three keywords I’m targeting, but it’s ranking #1 for one. Here’s the breakdown:
Keyword 1
Exact monthly searches: 33,100 - Current position: #8 in Google
Keyword 2
Exact monthly searches: 18,100 - Current position: #4
Keyword 3
Exact monthly searches: 720 - Current position: #1
Not too shabby. Typically though, I would like to be at #1 for all three keywords by now, but I decided to use this site as a test ground for some Fiverr gig reviews, which I believe has led to the slower than normal climb up the ranking ladder.

I’ve recently been testing out a handful of different Fiverr gigs that offer backlinking services.
I’ve sifted through hundreds of gigs looking for effective services and narrowed it down to roughly 5 services to test out initially.
There are a few more which I’m currently testing and some of the results I’m about to give you may be a little premature to form a decision, so I will revisit them in part 2 of this series.
So, here are the gigs that made the first cut and their results:
I will setup link wheel for your page Be on the first page in Google search in 1 month for $5
This is apparently the oldest link wheel gig on Fiverr and it may just be since he has an insane amount of positive reviews. I’m not a huge fan of link wheels, but since this is an extremely popular service I thought I better give it a try. Continue reading my review of Fiverr gigs
It’s no secret that I try to get as much done with as little effort as possible (some call it laziness)…
But, that doesn’t mean I don’t work my ass off, it just means I spend little to no time doing meaningless work and instead focus all my energy on tasks that count (or at least I try, I still have those not-so-productive days at times…Damn You YouTube!).
Simply put, I strive to get the most bang for the buck, in terms of my work output.
This is extremely important for obvious reasons:
- Wasting time on fruitless tasks doesn’t pay.
- Spending time on menial jobs that are better off delegated just doesn’t make sense – You NEED to value your time.
- By performing ONLY the tasks that are necessary, you are less likely to get burnt out.
