They work for all types of scenarios like diversity or pushing ranks.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The difference when using new ones is they\u2019re fresh and take time to power up with the other tiered links you need to build to them.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Using expired web 2.0s to get me stable on the second page for my keywords then pushing them the rest of the way with my own personal private blog network works really well.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7603 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/backlinks.png\" alt=\"backlinks\" width=\"600\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/backlinks.png 600w, https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/backlinks-300x100.png 300w, https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/backlinks-513x171.png 513w, https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/backlinks-573x191.png 573w, https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/backlinks-335x112.png 335w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Remember, Google wants to see that Authority.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2017_Progress_Update\"><\/span>2017 Progress Update<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Well, it\u2019s been some time since this was posted and my ranking is still going strong so it\u2019s time for an update!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Now the question everyone wants to know\u2026 Does this still work in 2017?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Yeap sure does!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">I want to show you the results from two sites I\u2019ve been working on since this post and explain to you how I got the sites to the first page of Google.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">There are only two things ranking these sites, good long informative content and the super-strong expired web 2.0s we talked about above.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Website_Number_1\"><\/span>Website Number 1<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Alright, so this site is one of my favorites right now and has the potential to earn 5 figures a month.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The website ranking first in this niche just sold recently and was making just over $10,000 a month.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">My site is literally 2-4 spots behind it on some of the terms.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">This site is a Clickbank lead generation website, I collect emails with the site then I have an email marketing campaign set up to promote a specific niche-related product.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The content length on this particular page is 3700 words, my on-page optimization is spot on so all I needed to do was add links.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7604 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/weebly-index-site.png\" alt=\"weebly index site\" width=\"618\" height=\"102\" srcset=\"https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/weebly-index-site.png 618w, https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/weebly-index-site-300x50.png 300w, https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/weebly-index-site-513x85.png 513w, https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/weebly-index-site-573x95.png 573w, https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/weebly-index-site-600x99.png 600w, https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/weebly-index-site-335x55.png 335w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 618px) 100vw, 618px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">As you can see from the results above all my target keywords are on the front page and that\u2019s exactly where I want them.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">I\u2019m not worried about the 1st position right now, the site makes money at this point so I can rest for a while before hitting it again with more links.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">You will see the ranks have dropped a bit, this is normal with this method. Google will push the site up high then let it settle into it\u2019s position, this indicated to me that I\u2019m ready for another round of links soon.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">It\u2019s already collected over 600 leads so that&#8217;s a great effort!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Right now I get 2-3 sales a day and on a good day with a nice spike I\u2019ll hit 5+ and I\u2019m not even at the top yet.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>So how did I get this to where it is now?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The combination of good content and expired web 2.0s sent this site to the front page like a rocket going to space.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The content was good enough to get me dancing on the 4th page then using the expired web 2.0s I got it pushed up.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Oh\u2026. and the competition in this niche is quite hard with some decent authority editorials to compete with.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">On this particular site, I used tumblrs and a mix of beep.com blogs as well. I had to pull out the big guns for this site though, I used only the best-expired Tumblrs I could find.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Most of the tumblrs I used had good backlinks from editorial sites like Huffington Post.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">With this site there was a specific anchor text ratio I used, most of the anchors are URL and branded only.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">I did this because every other site in the top 10 had branded anchors so it makes sense to replicate that. Exact match anchors were used but only once or twice each.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Since most of the sites in the top 10 are editorial all the links are natural so I have to make my anchors look natural.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">There are 2 other affiliate sites I\u2019m competing with but they both have natural-looking anchors as well.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">At this point, I\u2019m going to work on this site hard once it\u2019s settled a bit longer to get it to the top. I\u2019ll have a break and work on other projects until then.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Website_Number_2\"><\/span>Website Number 2<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">This site has lower competition than the first one and won\u2019t make anything close to the income it will be producing.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">This site could be about $1300-1600 a month once ranked higher. At the end of the day, money is money and I\u2019m happy with that.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">This site is once again a lead generation site for a Clickbank offer but I only just started collecting leads on this one before Christmas.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">This one is a little different I actually get most of the sales from the links within the content and not so much within the email campaign.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">This just shows me that testing with affiliate websites is important to see what works.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">On this website, I also used less content, just over 2300 words. The competition wasn\u2019t very hard and the topic was hard to write about so I stopped at 2300 to see how It went.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Safe to say that it worked out fine with that amount of content. Here are the current rankings.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7605 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/site-indexer.png\" alt=\"site indexer\" width=\"618\" height=\"128\" srcset=\"https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/site-indexer.png 618w, https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/site-indexer-300x62.png 300w, https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/site-indexer-513x106.png 513w, https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/site-indexer-573x119.png 573w, https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/site-indexer-600x124.png 600w, https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/site-indexer-335x69.png 335w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 618px) 100vw, 618px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The best part about this site is I could use my \u201crubbish expired web 2.0s\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">What do I mean?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Well, when I do a scrape I set my expired web 2.0s out into sections. Those 2 sections are.<\/p>\n<ol style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<li>Good quality powerful web 2.0s<\/li>\n<li>Scraps\/rubbish web 2.0s<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">So, I use the Good web 2.0s on my hard niche websites then I save up all the average or low-quality ones for an easier site like this one.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The only difference really is the amount I use.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Although I\u2019m using so-called rubbish links as I like to call them they still work, I just need a lot more of them.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Remember when we scrape? We usually scrape a lot so it\u2019s always a good idea to save those average ones for a rainy day.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Some people will think that\u2019s a waste of time but I\u2019ve seen the proof in my testing.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">We even had a member in our Online Marketing Facebook Group post his rankings today using just Tumblrs.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">He held the 1st position for most of his search terms.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">I have no idea what kind of competition his niche is but that\u2019s still impressive with just a bunch of expired tumblrs!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">So, is this still a viable way to rank websites? Absolutely.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">If we come into a super-duper hard niche we use the web 2.0s to get us to the 3rd or 2nd page then usually hit them with stronger links like <a href=\"https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/what-is-guest-posting\/\">guest posting<\/a> or private blog network links.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">In most cases, you can sneak onto the first page with these expired web 2.0 links.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">This web 2.0s method is still a great way to rank those easy to medium and even better on those hard niches to get them ready for even stronger links.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Wrapping_It_Up\"><\/span>Wrapping It Up<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">If you want a quick and easy way to grab some good web 2.0 backlinks then buying Tumblr\u2019s and throwing up those links is a fast way to do it.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">You can build massive private blog networks with web 2.0 sites ready for links to existing or new websites you might create.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">It\u2019s up to you if you want to use these web 2.0s for one site or multiple sites. I link out to 2-4 websites max so I don\u2019t have too many outbound links spreading the juice around.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">When scraping the sub-domains this video from Dillon who has helped me a lot in the past with this will explain the scraping if you have trouble or you prefer videos.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">You don\u2019t need to limit yourself to the web 2.0 sites mentioned above, that\u2019s just what I prefer to use. There are many footprints you can input into the scraper to build your own private blog network.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Via http:\/\/www.matthewwoodward.co.uk\/tutorials\/build-expired-web-2-0-networks-increase-rankings\/<br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: 0;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/embed?pb=!1m28!1m12!1m3!1d24000.203047338324!2d-96.03460563011285!3d41.24300504297989!2m3!1f0!2f0!3f0!3m2!1i1024!2i768!4f13.1!4m13!3e6!4m5!1s0x87938d1238e2dbff%3A0x5540d95323eafd86!2sOmaha%20Fire%20Station%20%2353%2C%20Dodge%20Street%2C%20Omaha%2C%20NE%2C%20USA!3m2!1d41.2592582!2d-96.03804439999999!4m5!1s0x87938c3d0c92fcb1%3A0x98cf112f2e9fe028!2s5223%20Grover%20St%2C%20Omaha%2C%20NE%2068106!3m2!1d41.2266913!2d-95.99608579999999!5e0!3m2!1sen!2s!4v1653680789226!5m2!1sen!2s\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Web 2.0 Private Blog Network can improve the DA of your website and increase your rankings in the search engines.

After leaving a CFO role at a seven\u2011figure nonprofit, I built my first online business and hit #1 in AOL search within weeks\u2014then clients started asking me to replicate those results for them. Since then, I\u2019ve helped businesses turn WordPress sites into high\u2011performing assets through technical SEO, site architecture, speed, and content strategy, and I\u2019ve built and sold a WordPress site after growing it to 1,000+ organic keyword rankings. Today I own or co\u2011own multiple city\u2011based SEO properties that compete at the top in tough U.S. markets, and I now offer AI SEO so brands can show up in Google results and AI\u2011generated answers. To work with me, book a call from the homepage of Omaha SEO (Omaha\u2011SEO.com).","url":"https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/author\/philbell\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/815","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=815"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/815\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7606,"href":"https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/815\/revisions\/7606"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2414"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=815"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=815"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=815"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
