10 Steps to build a Niche SEO Empire - Part II

Continuing from Part I (it’s been a while):

Step 6: It’s GAME time
Time to get your websites up. Find a few interesting domain names (I use Bust a name). Register them, and setup on different hosting accounts (step 3).

Then, different scripts on different domain names. For example: Forum on domain name A, Blog on domain name B, Portal on domain name C, Social Bookmarking on domain name B. so on and forth. Trust me, you will have fun. *wink

Step 7: Smart Linking vs Not-So-Smart Linking
Here is the core of Niche SEO Empire : linking. Consider the below formula:

Smart Linking = Undetectable by Search Engine = No Pattern = Random
In other words, link your website together RANDOMLY. For example: website A links to website B,C,D,E ; website B links to website C,E; website C links to website A, website D links to website A,B,C; website E doesn’t link to anybody. Try to link all your websites together to maximize your link juice, but don’t follow any pattern. And, don’t use the same anchor text too. This is crucial.

Another thing about smart linking is link in & out. Do some simple link exchange with other websites. Link to them, and let them link to you. No harm and make your linking structure even more unpredictable.

Step 8:Content. Anyone?
This is a hard one. I’m gonna lay down the option, and you choose which route you wish to follow (or better, use all):

A. Spend a lot of time writing (creating) it yourself.
B. Spend a lot of money hiring a freelancer writer.
C. Use scripts to generate content automatically.

Step 9: Prune the tree.
Our overall strategy of SEO Empire is like throwing a bunch of spaghetti (or replace your favorite food) to the refrigerator - and see what sticks. As time goes, there will be a few websites of the empire get fully indexed by the search engine; and some websites penalized/banned by search engine. It is totally normal. But you have to identify which are the bad part and kill it. Else, it will reduce the overall ‘VALUE” of your SEO Empire.

Step 10: Slow & Steady wins the war
The last step is about doing everything consistently over the period of time. Don’t rush everything within a day, a week or even a month. The longer (and more consistent) time you take to build the SEO empire, the better it will become.

That summed up my series of building an SEO Empire. Hope it helps you to build your own empire soon! :D
