I recently got into a niche in which the competitors are using shady tactics to move up, they have created the biggest PBN I've ever seen, I'm talking 100's of websites all linking to each other/higher-tiered websites.
Most of the sites don't even have content, just a little text with a link to the main site, the 1st page consists of 5 identical (different colored) websites by this company with slightly altered text.
I have mapped the whole PBN by tiers, and also found that most of those websites sit on the same analytics/google accounts.
those websites are ruining the user experience, and ruining competition, their websites are inferior to many other websites in the niche, but due to those shady tactics, it makes it very difficult to rank.
I am not new to SEO and building the same PBN would be possible for me, though take me a few months, I rather not use shady tactics to further my websites, I rather we all play by the rules.
Google doesn't seem to enforce them anymore, I've seen it on multiple occasions.
Is it possible to bring this issue to light? can I contact anyone to get answers?
Can Someone help me to choose a specific idea/Topic to start blogging.......
I'm planning to buy a new domain name for my new blog. Is it worth to go for .guide domains?
When I google, still I can't find any .guide domain name.
Google will rank .guide like other TLD like .com?
I’ve tried doing some research on the subject but I’m getting conflicting opinions and answers. Also, haven’t seen an example scenario exactly like mine yet. So here it is.
I have a small niche website with a couple freelance content writers. These writers, and actually many people in my niche, have their own personal blogs. I do not allow them to post any of the content they write for me on their personal blogs, but they have approached me wondering if I wanted to put some of the content they wrote for their own blogs on my website.
This got me thinking of separating my website into a more free-form blog where approved bloggers in my niche can write about anything related to the niche with little to no oversight from me. Of course I wouldn’t pay them for this.
Then I would still have my paid content that would be specially chosen through keyword searches and competitor analysis, for my freelance writers.
Now if I did this, and people posted duplicate blog content from their own personal blogs onto my website. Would this negatively effect my rankings as a whole?
I’ve seen answers ranging from “definitely” to “not at all” to everything in between. So I guess I just want to hear what y’all have to say.
Still fairly new at this.
Was just researching backlinks of one of my competitor website in my niche and I came across an interesting find.
A governmental/community/organization came out as the strongest domain linking to my competitor. I’m very familiar with this organization personally, but it doesn’t really directly relate to my niche at all.
Here’s where it gets interesting. When I went to the organization’s website, it was a list of their community partners. Maybe about 50 or so. Most of them are colleges, schools, foundations and non-profits. Big names. Big colleges. Ole miss, for example. However. Tucked in these 50 partners was THREE of my obscure niche competitor websites.
Turns out you can pay $150-600 to become a community partner with this organization and get your name on the list for a year, then you have to renew each year.
I don’t know if one of my competitors did this and the others just followed suit after doing their research but I just found it interesting.
I’m almost debating doing the same mainly because I actually believe in this organization and I wouldn’t mind donating my own money to them.
Is this a common type of thing?
I'm from Canada and have just gotten erank to find good longtail keywords, but I noticed that on average searches, average clicks, and average CTR only says (US). However, I only sell to Canada, is it possible at all to see these statistics for Canada?
