@rohanm Well done for getting started.
Okay, with newer accounts it can take a while (and a few articles) to start "popping" (which is why a lot of blackhatters are simply purchasing aged Reddit, Medium, and Linkedin accounts).
So, get a few more going first of all.
Plus, the "parasite SEO" reviews are best written as
Product Name Review
OR
Best XXXXX XXXXX XXXXX
Here's some examples of some keywords that have done well with parasite SEO during 2024 (although everyone's "fighting" in the SERPs through backlink blasts, hahaaha!!! I'm raking number one today, so you blast 300 backlinks and take over my rankings, so the next day I blast 400 backlinks and take over you rankings, the next day you return the favour, and so on), so DON'T get involved in these competitive "fights"
Anyway, some keywords that WERE doing well over the last 4.5 months (look for better variations of these keywords if you want)
Best Handgun
Best Music Production Software (what I told you about yesterday, Old Fluff!!!)
Best Way to Learn Spanish For Beginners
Best QR Code Generators
Best Websites to Sell Feet Pics
Best US Code Themes
Best Mushroom Coffee
Best Monitor For Mac Pro
Firstly, can you see how DIFFERENT the types of products that are being promoted via affiliate marketing.
Literally everyone comes into this business and choosing a niche (usually BROAD) within Make Money Online, Weight Loss, Healthy and Beauty, or Mental Health/Personal Development.
Can you see how this is NOT what savvy marketers are targetting?
Next, and this is something I'd cover in more detail in a "consultation", but if you don't have any morals (hahahahahahah!!! nah, it's not that bad, I'm only joking, LOL), go to Clickbank, and go through their "Best Sellers", mainly pills and potions for various ailments/improvements.
Now, these would be seen as YMYL (Your Money or Your Life) products, so you'd struggle to get a website ranking on these topics with simple SEO, low domain authority, and very few backlinks.
BUT
Parasite SEO is "killing it" for these products.
Other Clickbank or similar offers to look at are "learning instruments online" and "learning languages online".
Once more, the "blackhat" way is to find a decent keyword that has web 2.0 properties ranking in the top 10 results, rewrite one of their reviews, post to a high DA parasite, e.g. Medium or Linkedin, then blast with backlinks.
As for you should personally do Rohan, I would say get 5 reviews written first (if you're using Medium, all good, as this does work on Linkedin, but Linkedin seems to be taking about one month to index anything, although indexing can be manipulated with "mass indexers" and backlinks).
When you've got the first 5 reviews written, come back to me, I'll have a look, and then between us we'll choose one for a backlink blast.
I'm still experimenting with different types of backlinks, so as an example the cheapest package is $15, but I have 3 different options:
1) Dirty blast - Blast to 3,000 web 2.0 properties, no report either, as it's done via software automation. Basically, a lot of the lower DA web 2.0 property profile bios or articles won't get indexed, so you're going for big numbers here in the hop that a decent percentage (30-50%) will get indexed.
2) Normal web 2.0 blast - blast to 300 web 2.0 properties over DA70, placed through multiple indexers so you should get 95% of these indexed, full report provided.
3) Mixed Pyramid Backlinks - this is approximately 20 web 2.0 properties, then 100 social media backlinks built to the web 2.0 properties, then RSS syndication for the social media backlinks, and then mass indexing for everything (the higher payment structures of this also offers .edu .gov and wiki links)
I've tested all on various platforms, and various size of links.
If I'm completely honest, the success rate is 68% in getting an article to top 3!
So, this does also mean that there is a 32% "failure rate" (but I guess I could keep blasting with backlinks until they rank, but at a guess, no-one wants to spend $200 on backlinks to rank one article... well, unless that article earns you 10x that amount for ranking at number one).
So, I would say write 5 reviews, come back to me, we'll pick one article, and probably give it a blast with number 1 or number 2.
Write 5 more articles, we'll pick one, do the same again.
Then write 5 more articles, and then we review ALL the previous 10 (especially the two with "blasts") and see how things are going from there.
This is what I woiuld do!!!
