Backlinksgenie – How To Get The Most Out Of Backlinksgenie
It's now my fourth months with Backlinksgenie and I still love it. It is simply the fastest and easiest way to create and promote Web 2.0 properties. You can get all the details by reading my Backlinksgenie Review
However, there is one thing I noticed and, because Backlinksgenie is pretty expensive, I want to get the most out of it and this is why you should know why it might be more profitable staying away from their fully automated 3-day and 4-day projects.
# 3 Day project - combine web 2.0, PR4+ profile linkwheels, and blog comment into one project
# 4 Day project - combine web 2.0, PR4+ profile linkwheels, blog comment, and xrumer into one project
Ok.. on day 1 Backlinksgenie will auto create up to 20 Web 2.0 properties. On the second, third (and fourth day for the 4 Day project) Backlinksgenie will build a profile linkwheel using the urls of all Web 2.0 properties created. On day 3 and four there will be 700 blog comments created pointing to your Web 2.0 sites and a 2000 Xrumer profile post.
And here comes the downside: It is a matter of fact that some Web 2.0 properties will get deleted fast (wordpress in most cases will kill your blog within some hours, same with edublogs etc.) You will end up with around 15 Web 2.0 blogs left. However, when choosing the 3 or 4 day project you will waste a lot of link power, because links created will point to ALL blogs created on day 1 (and some might already be gone).....
This is why I ALWAYS use the REPOST feature. I repost to all Web 2.0 properties created initially. After that I go ahead, copy the list of the Web 2.0 properties Backlinksgenie was able to REPOST to and create new projects (Profile linkwheel, comment posting and XRUMER).
Example: 4 Day Project with 20 Web 2.0 sites created on Day 1:
700 blog comments divided up to 20 Web 2.0 sites: 37,5 comments per Web 2.0 (but it is a fact that at least 5 will be gone by the time Backlinksgenie is posting the comments!) So if you do it by REPOSTING and after that sending the comments etc. to the remaining good Web 2.0 sites you will benefit a lot more:
700 blog comments divided up to 15 Web 2.0 sites: 46,66 comments per Web 2.0 site.
2000 Xrumer posts to 20 Web 2.0 sites = 100 profiles per url
2000 Xrumer posts to 15 Web 2.0 sites= 133,33 profiles per url
60 high PR profile linkwheel to 20 Web 2.0 site = 3 high profiles per url
60 high PR profile linkwheel to 15 Web 2.0 site = 4 high profiles per url
Get the point and do you see the difference? It's really not a big deal, because setting up the projects manually only takes minutes... and I am not wasting any backlinks pointing to dead sites....
I really cannot emphasize it enough: Backlinksgenie is worth every penny and I suggest you read my full Backlinksgenie Review to find out why this service is so great....
By the way, they just added an API for integration with Linklicious. This means that all project reports get automatically added to Linklicious and will be pinged and are guaranteed to be crawled by Google.
PLUS today (1st February 2011) another amazing features has been released: article directory submission to 100 directories. I have not tested this new feature of Backlinksgenie yet, because it has been released just some hours ago, but I will keep you updated!
Indexing Tool Review – Indexingtool.com
Every marketer knows the problem. Getting your backlinks indexed. Unindexed backlinks are useless. You need to get your backlinks indexed to improve your rankings. What if you have 100 articles and only half of them are actually working to push your pages up the SERPs? It's a nightmare scenario, but it is a sad fact, if you do not push your backlinks.
I have been searching for a good, easy to use backlink wordpress plugin for quite a while. Now I came across the IndexingTool. Although this wordpress plugin is pretty basic, it does its job with almost no work involved.
What does IndexingTool do?
Indexingtool is a WordPress plugin.
You put it into your WordPress plugin folder and once it is activated you may add an RSS feed of the backlinks you want to get indexed.
The plugin takes the links and shows them on the bottom of your posts.
E.g.
"Other articles you might be interested in:
The backlink you want to get indexed 1
The backlink you want to get indexed 2
The backlink you want to get indexed 3
etc."
The plugin checks at set time intervals whether your backlink is indexed or not. Once it is indexed, it is no longer displayed below your blog post.
If the page isn’t already indexed then a link to it will be displayed.
The plugin re-checks the rss feed at regular intervals to look for new items. So any articles you add e.g. to your article account at goarticles or ezinearticles will automatically be added to the list.
Indextingtool also comes with a great bonus script: Trackbackindexer
This is great for marketers who submit a lot of articles to ArticleRanks, Unique Article Wizard, Seolinkvine or any other Blog network.
Why? Because many of the blogs your article gets submitted to will send a trackback to your blog. However, this does not necessarily mean that the blog post got indexed. It is a matter of fact that a lot of blogs inside big blog networks are spammy and posts won't get indexed by Google without some additional efforts on your part.
With the help of Indexingtool and the bonus trackback plugin you will be able to fetch all trackbacks. The trackback urls will be saved in an rss file and all you have to do is add the rss feed to the indexingtool plugin hosted on a second feeder blog.
That's it.
The Indexing Tool is designed to take your RSS feeds, check if the pages in it are indexed, and if not it displays a link to that page on your site. Then Google sends spiders out to look at your site, finds the links and follows them to your un-indexed pages. Google will then index those pages.
Indexingtool will work perfectly if you use any of the methods below to get backlinks to your blogs:
* Profile Links
* Go Articles
* Squidoo
* Hubpages
* Blogger
* UAW
* AMA
* Link Wheels
* Blog Farms
* Article Distribution
At the beginning of my post I referred to Indexingtool plugin as a very basic tool. There is no doubt that it is working great for what it is supposed to do: getting your backlinks indexed. It only took one day to see some great results.
However, I am missing some features.
E.g. I installed the trackback plugin on some of my older blog which have a lot of trackbacks. The trackback plugin fetched all of them within some seconds. However, some backlinks that sent a trackback a year ago are no longer there. Blogs are either expired or the post has been removed. There is no way of removing these trackbacks from the rss feed without modifying the whole rss file.
In addition you can only add one rss feed into the Indexingtool. This rss feed has to contain a list of all urls. Well, this is not really a disaster, because you can easily build one large rss feed by using a rss aggregator such as rssmix.com or xfruits.com. But it would be much simpler if this would be integrated into the Indexingtool wordpress plugin.
But nevertheless Indexingtool is definitely a great wordpress plugin and is definitely worth $47. You will be able to finally get your backlinks indexed fast and painlessly.
What To Do If Your WordPress Blog Got Hacked
Well... today two of my other blogs hosted on another host got hacked. I am not sure what's going on right now. But I guess I am not alone and due to the fact that I now know what to do, I want to share my knowledge with you.

There are so many real stupid people out there. And so far I came across four ways a wordpress blog gets hacked:
1. The whole hosting accounts with all domains on it gets deleted.
2. Someone accesses your blog and adds malicious code. In this way e.g. every user will download a trojan or virus in the background when visiting. In the past years this has happened several times to me. In a lot of cases the hackers were so stupid that they added the code incorrectly and the whole blog stopped working... Well.... they should do it at least right...
In case the hacker adds malicious code correctly and you are not aware of it, it will only take a while for google to find out and warn every user in the search results that your blog is spreading malicious code. When this happened to me one year ago I removed the code, did a re-scan in Google webmaster tools and sent a reinclusion request to Google explaining the situation. It only took some days and my sites where back in the index.
3. The hacker adds a link to another site. In most cases the link will lead to a porn site and is located in the footer section of your blog. All you have to do is remove the code.
4. If your wordpress blog shows an error or blank screen and many files seem to be infected the best thing to do is: Just go ahead and delete all files. Same if the whole blog got deleted and all files are gone.
How to know what files have been accessed by the hacker? Access your site via FTP. You will see all files and also the dates on which they have last been changed. So if most of your files have not changed in months and only some show that they have changed recently, these are most likely the ones that have been accessed by the hacker.
Do NOT Panic!
Hackers usually do not access your MYsql database. So all your posts, tags and comments will still be there.
You should take advantage of this negative situation and upgrade your WordPress Blog to the newest version
So go ahead, upload the newest version of WordPress.
Once completed rename wp-config-sample.php into wp-config.php and enter your OLD Mysql database name and password. (The one your deleted blog used before it got hacked!)
In case you have no idea of the MYsql database name and password go to your Cpanel's hosting account. Go to MYsql and you will see all exisitng databases. Most important is the database name. Copy it and enter it into wp-config.php.
In case you forgot your Mysql database password.... there is still no need to worry! Just create a new user for the existing database and assign all permissions. Enter the new user information you just created into the wp-config.php.
Upload.... after that go to yourdomain.com. You will be forwarded to yourdomain.com/wp-admin or if required you will be told that a database upgrade is required. Click OK.
Log into wp-admin and go to the APPEARANCE section. Choose a new template.
After that go to "Plugins". You will see a red list of all Plugins that were once there and are now gone. Copy the list and lookup the plugins you used before. Upload them to the plugin directory and reactivate.
That's it. Back Online.
As you can see a hacked WordPress blog is not a real disaster, because in most cases the MYsql database where all the important data is stored stays untouched. So all that is lost are the Worpdress files. Make the best out of this situation and upgrade to the newest version of WordPress and get a new fancy WordPress theme.
Hack Attack!
Some days ago my VPS server was hacked and ALL data deleted. I do not have any backup copies. I lost 40 domains. I have no idea why people are doing something like this.... But I guess instead of wasting my time thinking about why people are so stupid I should spend my time to get everything back to normal. My hosting company told me that everything was deleted: I am glad that I always want to check out things myself and I noticed that Mysql databases are still there. Hooray! So my contentattack articles are back again! I still need to re-install all WordPress plugins and add missing images. But after that I am back 100%. I guess I cannot emphasize it enough: secure ALL of your domains and hosting accounts, choose SAVE passwords and always create backup copies of your work!
My other domains are also not lost, because MYsql databases are still there as well. Only all other files are gone. Firepow support stuff has been pretty helpful. They told me that there will definitely a way to get my wordpress installations back. So they seem to be working behind the scenes.
