Are Linkwheels Dead?
In the past months the term "Linkwheel" became very popular.
If you have no idea what Linkwheels are, here is a short explanation:
By utilising Web 2.0 properties (Squidoo, Hubpages, Xanga, Friendster...) you provide more powerful backlinks to your site and each other, so that you are increasing the rankings of the spokes in the wheel as well as your own site.
It is the tying together, or connectivity involved in having links from web 2.0 properties pointing towards your main sites.
Since these Web 2.0 properties are all on different IP addresses and subnets, the search engines will see you getting links form a wide range and style of sites, and this is a good link building and good SEO practice and will increase your search engine rankings.
As stated before the term "Linkwheel" has been growing in popularity in the past months.
However, there are some people out there stating that Linkwheels do not work anymore.
This is not true. The reason why these marketers have no success with their Linkwheels is, that they most likely build them, interlink them, bookmark them once and stop working on getting backlinks to their Linkwheels.
Linkwheels need backlinks to get indexed by Google and other search engines! Linkwheels need attention. It's not a set and forget thing.
If you do not get backlinks to your linkwheels they will rank for some days and drop off the search engines fast. Social bookmarking your linkwheels once is definitely not enough.
This is why I like SENuke so much.
The updated version of SENuke now auto creates linkwheels on 31 (!!!!) Web 2.0 properties. You can easily auto interlink them by adding a #lastlink# placeholder.
And now comes the great thing! SENuke stores the urls of ALL Linkwheels you EVER created and you can randomily add them (e.g. at the bottom of your article) to your new linkwheels by using a simple tag.
By using the #randurl# tag you will create new backlinks to your older Linkwheel pages automatically and keep them staying in the search engines with no additional work at all!
Honestly... this is really, really cool.
So are Linkwheels dead? NO, definitely NOT! But you need to keep them ALIVE by getting backlinks.

Senuke And Firepow Review
The Two Marketing Software Tools I Could Not Live Without
As mentioned in my last post, I am currently focusing on building niche blogs. There are two services I have been subscribed two for over 6 months now and could not live without. SENuke and Firepow
SENUKE
SEnuke is my favorite all around marketing tool. It's an all in one website promotion software that will help you getting indexed and getting ranked fast. It will help you to build linkwheels, submit articles to the best article direcotires, social bookmark, spin articles, create profiles, submit rss feeds and submit videos to the best video sites. It's indeed an all around tool that is extremely powerful and actually WORKS! Behind Senuke there is an extremely dedicated sutff that keeps updating the software frequently. So all I can say is: if you are serious about getting your sites indexed and ranked you need SEnule.
There is only one similar tool available: Peter Drew's Bruteforce SEO. I have not tried it, because of the bad reviews I found online. I subscribed to several others of Pete's services, which are pretty buggy, overhyped and overpriced (I will talk about this in another post soon). So Bruteforce Seo is not even close to the power and automation SENuke offers.
By the way.... SENuke offers ar free 7 day trial
And what's my second favorite software? It Is Firepow
FIREPOW
Firepow is the ultimate, fully automated blog creation software. It is lightning fast and extremely flexible. All you have to do is enter your domain name, blog name and desciption, tags, choose a template (there are many, many templates to choose from), add adsense (if you want to). Click one button and voila... some seconds later your blog is up and running and all WordPress plugins that are essential for Seo are added and already activated as well. It is really amazing!
In the next step enter your keywords and Firepow will grab you content from all over the net. Choose how often you want to post, click another button and your blog is up and running, ready to make you money!
Also... do not worry about duplicate content penalty. It did not happend to me and it did not happen to other Firepow users. There is also a "content mixer" to be added in the next update.
After your blog is up go to the promotion section, get your RSS feed submitted to the best rss directories. There is also an integrated yahoo answering tool. Answer some yahoo questions with reference to your new blog and watch your blog getting indexed super fast. By the way there is also a blog network where you can post to for additional linking.
Firepow gets definitly 5 thumbs up from me. This blog software is AMAZING!
As all great tools... Firepow offers a 14 day trial for only $1... so you have nothing to lose.
If you are into niche marketing SENuke and Firepow are two tools you should definitely invest in. They are solid and proven to work. Both have an extremely dedicated stuff behind them and a huge community of happy customers which share their experience and knowledge in Senuke's Forum and Firepow's Forum.
