@Nathan creating backlink from high authority domain that is irrelevant to my niche is good or not? can i create related forum backlinks?
Yes I am interested as a freelancer
Do I neee more baclinks to compensate if my domain is new amd competitor is old?
I like that you tell the real things and don't try to be mainstream with your advices.
I see your channel as an SEO channel giving advices for people who already have SEO knowledge. It differentiates you from other channels that only target beginners to get more views.
Excellent video Nathan. No fluff straight to the point and some actionable things to start doing? Good point @12:25
Backlinks aren't everything, but if you don't have backlinks you're just not going to rank. That's the main problem Google needs to fix if they don't want people buying links, but they never will.
If you can't build links, you're not an SEO. Period.
Not necessarily true , I mainly focus on content , low competition keywords and gradually build my way up. Does backlinks help ? Fuck yes they do. Can you succeed without them ? Also yes if you focus on good content and keep that engagement high
@@sakshammehta939 On low comp keywords, yes, but not on competitive terms, IMHO.
@@captjimusfl Agree
Google literally built their search engine ranking factor based on links, then went to the quality of the links. (on page is crucial aswell)... Once they develop AI that is extemely capable,, which I believe that nearly have already, good links will always be gold. Simple research into how Google started will tell you this
This is by far the best video I’ve ever seen golden nuggets for free amazing job you got my thumbs up and a subscription 👍
Thanks, Nathan, A very helpful video! How do you know what to is the correct price to pay "The Middle Man" based of DR/DA etc
Great info! Where do you find aged domains with quality link profile ?
In the merger strategy I need to buy a current site rather than an expired domain, how do I work out whether it has previously been 301 redirected and lost its power?
What is your goto source for BUYING domains/sites with authority? Gracias
Excellent video Nate ! One of the GOAT's.
Thank you Chris!
ABSOLUTE RIPPER OF A VIDEO.
Kelly.
What website is that where you found the Florida backlink opportunities?
Where do you find aquisions?
Thanks you vert much for your vidéo. Do you recommandé buying nofollow backlinks from websites with high DR in thé same niche especially many people sais it's working?? Awaiting for your feedback
Hey Nathan! Its important: We did merge a DA 30 Site with a DA 42 site (all checked by our SEO people, everything was fine) we did everything correct. NOW after almost 3 weeks our DA went from 30 down to 26. Is that normal? will it bounce back?
Is this still a viable way and not already punished by Google (301 redirect expired relevant domains)? I did that in the past but was scared that it might hurt (yes Google successfully put the spirit of fear in me) so I removed the redirect. I have found a relevant domain again with DR33 and no spammy backlinks. Can I redirect it to my domain? Also I always thought redirecting some link juice from relevant domains to the main domain won't help the rank of individual posts. Am I wrong? Obviously you can't forward to a single blog post. One last thing: How many domains can you 301 redirect before you will get in the danger zone. I'd really appreciate your input. Thanks.
Thanks that this informative video Nathan! 👏🏻
My pleasure!
Great video, novice question here, when you buy a domain, you don't 301 the entire domain to the domain you want to rank correct? You instead rewrite the post and then 301 from the domain you purchased on a per link basis?
When I have seen people buy websites, they have continued to run them as is. And then added links to their own or client's sites from relevant existing or new content.
Please can you explain why we should easy our money on the 7 listed types of back links? Also, can we built them by ourselves without buying? Please clarify this angles, your teaching caries power.
Any advice on if someone else claims a google my business that is mine? Can’t get anywhere with google
Hi great video ! if i buy a domain name then i 301 redirect it to my website it will work ? I have Seen on many forums it doesn't work anymore. What is your opinion ? Best regards
our group have 7 employee who can make link building.We also have old work experience.We want to work with any seo agency at low cost. l am showing you a portfolio of some of our work.
What is your thoughts on SEM rush vs ahrefs?
Good one
Man is a chad for posting this on UA-cam of all places
is thats work on youtube?
SEO is no longer an industry of skill and expertise, it's an industry of who can spend the most money to pump up their DA.
Hello,
Please suggest some backlink building services.
Great video Nathan! Perfect representation of link buying.

Hey. So do you just approach the websites and ask them to sell you links?
If you do that, be prepared to receive hateful email in return from quite a few site owners/managers. And, if you do that, you're likely to see a copy of your email shared online publicly. That is why people don't do it themselves or they use fake names. Probably not a great idea.
Perhaps a more tactful approach is in order. Be prepared to see a terrible response rate no matter what you pitch. The larger the site, the more pitiful pitches they receive every day. 90+% of them get ignored.
HINT: If the site owner has no idea who you are, make sure you include information so they can check you out and verify. Include your full name, LinkedIn profile, a portfolio or examples of your writing if you're pitching a guest post.
IF I happen to see a pitch and it is decent, I will definitely be verifying whether the email came from the person. Twice I've had people impersonating someone else pitch content to me. If email comes from gmail or routes through google, I don't answer it. That is what impersonators use. Anyone acting on behalf of a business should be using their domain. And if you're pitching or especially breaking Gs rules, don't use their email system to do it!
When you say "acquire other domains with existing backlinks" is the idea to buy that domain and forward it to yours? If not, do you have to manage a second website? - sidenote: I just came across your channel, and I am really enjoying it, great work!
I have the same question.
I think that the best approach is to integrate links to your site from the acquired site after relocating it so that it looks natural and even link to other websites (sell links?) that you don't own. So yes, you do have to manage a second website and try to not have any evidence that it is in your group of sites such as whois info.
@@GDScriptDude I would agree with you because if you simply redirect the domain, over time those other sites will remove those links because they're no longer linking to the content that used to be there. And most likely when people acquire sites they do use them to make money from links to other people. I regularly have people trying to buy my site. I suspect that is why.
Would an effective backlink strat be just always being on the lookout for aged and expired domains? And can you redirect too many aged domains too quickly?
This sounds like an amazing idea!
Is switching a live posts to draft afact ranking?
I need to optomaize my whole website for images and I hired someone to do it.
I gave them limited access so does switching the articles from live to draft affect ranking?
Yes if it listed
Why are you switching them to draft? Why not just optimize the images and then publish the change?
I love you sir!
What are your thoughts on link prospects that have "write for us" on their site. Some SEO's say it is dangerous as it could be a signal Google looks at.
Not ideal, but it's unlikely that Google would penalize for a single variable
There is one company that is using that "blacklist" as a hook to differentiate them from others. Their blacklist is not current. I say that because sites that haven't had a page like that in years are on it. And in the past, even major sites had a page like that. They don't much anymore. Also, many sites that DO NOT accept guest posts are on huge lists of sites that do. No matter how many times you tell them, you can't find them all to stop the spread. Also, if you're brilliant, sites do make exceptions sometimes. But if you send a typical terrible pitch, those get ignored.
More and more sites charge for publishing guest posts or for link inserts. Three to four years ago that was unusual. Today, it is super common for sites to charge for everything -- including removing your link if you decide you don't want it. You really can't blame people for wanting to cover their time. But the prices I see floating around are ridiculously high for many sites.
Hey what if i buy an expired domain that expired 1 year ago and 301 redirect it my website than will i get benefit of that domain ??
Yes it does. But keep analyzing what backlinks they got. If you buy an expired or premium domain that has toxic backlinks and penalties you will be stuck with that penalty and bad ranking as well.
@@desirecoach8096 ok the domain i am choosing is showing nothing in spam score on MOZ
You forgot to mention - GAS SRE, Robto Mnoey, Xrakner, i think.
Sir this is bhavna from western australia ... I am a huge fan of yours…..I bought an expired domain and set up my blog on that ....the problem is the name of the domain is already there when i bought it...the focus of the domain is agriculture ...the domain name indicates agriculture....my blog focus is agriculture but what about branding....i cannot use the domain name to do branding as it is an american expired site the original owners may have some hold on it still. please advise. The expired domain has some good things about it which is why i bought it. No-one has talked about this aspect (how to manage the existing name of domain because we cannot change it) kindly either give me a reply or talk about it in a video.
Thanks a lot in advance
It is unlikely that the original American company that didn't bother to renew their domain would be concerned with a company in Australia using the same name. Do some research to find out whether that company is even still in business or not. The brand name may not even be registered anywhere. In the strategy he is talking about in this video, he wasn't buying the domain to use as his own domain. He was buying it for the value that links from it could convey to his or his client's domains through links.

The biggest obstacle in SEO
I know some will not like it or agree with everything you have said, but the evidence is there whether they like it or not. Backlinks still matter and I believe always will to some extent. And yes, Google could make it less and lesser in the future. But we are not there. Yes, Google is smart and has gotten smarter, but it’s not as smart as some people think.. Ask Kyle Roof😉. Excellent content, Nate!
links are very strong to ranking
Didn't mention why to avoid buying those links?
Where do buy the backlinks? I dont really think from fiverr^^
Hi brother I can help you. I provide quality backlinks not spammy. If you are interested then please let me know
Thanks
Excellent video bummed you are stealing my tricks!
More than 11,000 threads for vendors selling backlinks in 2008, wow!! No wonder Google hates it.
so, you didn't spend 1m in backlinks.. what a good clickbait
He used other companies money in which he consulted for. So im sure he did
If you build a web 2 up yourself with good content, are the links still not worth it?
They work, but they're just risky
dont waste your time.

Wondering why this video came out now while the trade has been going years ago !
Is that has to do with the market of this trade going down ?!
Dear Sir...
You mentioned buying a link for $30, how and where can I find that?
i can provide you high Quality backlinks if you are interested in please let me know
Hi Nathan. Great episode. We might need your help on the same. Can I schedule a call with you please?
Google is pathetic - we see our competitors buying links by the bucket load and Google doesn’t do anything to penalize their sites - tons of crap PBN links too. G has created the market by cranking up inbound priority. They were closer to a good algo a decade ago.
They fooled most of us by creating fear. They created a God Like Omnipotent Aura they made us to believe and we all fear them because we believe what they say it's true. Google and it's Algos are smart but not nearly as smart as they make us believe that they are. Still we all run around scared. They know they can play with our fears because we have no way to validate if what they say is true or not. Just look at John Mueller. That mfer is so smug because he know he can tell us everything and we believe it out of fear and follow exactly the path they want us to go (having their best interest not ours in mind).
@@hischransen8069 Yep - the truth is their algo can’t recognize a PBN or a paid link. They only catch those manually. And your right - they’ve been BSing all along about how advanced their algo is.
I really doubt you spent that much
Exactly 😂
Hhhhhhhhh im dead
He runs an agency, and this money seems accurate on the agency level. He said he acquired links for 500 clients.
I’ve been around Nathan’s content for years. Like decade and some change. Dude doesn’t have to lie for clicks.
Great, so, I think you’d be the right guy to buy backlinks from, do you still sell?
Hi bro I can help you!
Good content, but the title itself is a click bait(
why did you sold your old UA-cam account?
backlinks will always mater. The reason being, is google needs the backlinks to compare to other websites. Thats why they add the other crap seo checklist. Google's main business is not to improve search but force people to pay for google ads and allow big companies an advantage to seo, so they cannot sue google. Realistically speaking there are only 10 spots and the top 3 positions get all the traffic. So google has to find every reason to keep everyone else from rankings. If bad links ruin seo. Then amazon, Walmart, and other big companies should not rank at all. Webspeed, new image format, content length, if everyone has the same content and selling the same thing then why do big companies rank first. Only 1 percent of websites actually get pure organic traffic. There is only so much unique content in the world after awhile its just redundant.
you are exactly right. the entire internet is owned by the same small group of people at this point and they are basically manipulating all of us. it sickens me. I was online back in the era of bulletin boards and newsgroups when I was a kid and the internet I see now is just a corporate cesspit.
U just de motivated me... 🤣🤣
@@CryptoAddiction The solution is to find something small and unique that corporations don't care about and rank for it.
Just make good content know make excellent content. That’s the only way to really rank high. I think people are just trying to find Any other way around it then to just put the work in and make something worth reading.
And they are trashing the search results at the same time. Somehow, I doubt that legitimate good websites use this a ton.
Ok, let's say you're a new site. And you publish amazing pillar Skyscraper or whatever you want to call it content. How does anyone find it to link to it if your site has no authority?
shouldn't you tell alphabet to stop changing algorithms if there is one?
I just can't buy backlinks for clients. I won't risk it but I have heard of it bringing results. I've also heard of it ruining them.
Really? Just don’t go black hat.
@@teddybearroosevelt1847 what do you mean?
@@009fly Yeah, that's my question. How can buying links ever be anything but black hat?
Backlinks are good for seo
Hard kw without backlink = not in first page

I think Google is moving away from backlinks. As RankBrain grows stronger with more semantic SEO and NLP, content will be vastly more important then buying, or backlink outreach.
Good enough content will gain quality backlinks regardless, the focus, IMO, should always be on high-quality content at velocity.
Manually acquiring backlinks will obviously help you speed up the process, but if Google doesn't think this is healthy, they will program the algorithm to move away from it. First page rankings shouldn't be a "popularity contest". It should be about providing the most possible value to that user based on their search.
This is true for informational content. However, for money "best of" posts, these can almost never gain organic back links.
@@VinylMemoirs The reason for that is there are so many fake "best of" posts that recommend the top 3 best paying affiliate programs instead of actually reviewing and ranking whatever it is on actual quality.
I feel old because I didn't understand any of this. 😁
Any reliable backlink vendor?
Yes
You forgot one thing. A backlink without quality content is toxic
Yes I agree
Why does Google hate back links? Because it games their algorithm.
Why do people sell back links?
Because backlinks are valuable and giving people something valuable in return for money is awesome
Is it advisable to buy quality back links off Fiverr? Top rated seller with thousands of positive reviews.. whitehat, high scoring DA. Whats your thoughts guys? thanks
You realize that buying links is the opposite of white hat, right? There is no way buying links can ever be anything but black hat because it is against their rules. And if the person you're talking about is bragging about links on specific sites, they're either a scammer or stupid (and their links WILL get removed as soon as someone reports them).
I wish someone would actually make a video with proof that backlinks help.
Answer: everyone does it
Used to be backlinks were free lol
If Google hates, it will not work for so much time... 😎
In fact, someday Google Search AI will be smart enough to no SEO technique Black or White hat, work anymore (in the sense of a SEO professional tell to engine things that isn't necessarily truth).
Bad structured sites or with bad UX will probably can still be demoted, and authoritative sources (the real ones, not the artificially generated authority) will be a thing also (sadly, even with bad UX). But across time, less and less it will make sense to hire an SEO to reinforce keywords, for instance: Google engine is becoming smarter to identify what each site/page/product is about.
They're likely to be very busy dealing with AI-generated content, at least in the near future. While they get better, it isn't really possible to tell whether a link in quality thought-leadership content is organic or not. On the other hand, poor quality content that links to sales pages is obvious to anyone looking at it.
@@Growmap Technically, I personally don't see any issue with AI generated content, because there is no much difference from about 95% of human generated content out there.
Most of current free internet human generated content is more of the same. Talking about what everyone is already talking (to surfy on trends), in the way of everyone do, and totally based on most searched keywords.
All because the famous "SEO", and the current lack of capacity of Google Search to select what is really good.
So if AI can do this boring material with better quality, why not? If is revised by a human writer, even better.
What will never change is when a human feel in need to say something on Internet, (s)he sit down, write it and publish (and because the truth isn't keyword intended, probably this material will never be discovered...
But if Google put it's AI project like LAmDA on indexing, the future can be better to creators. And no do good for SEO.
@@renascienza.bazarclub Well, AI content is currently full of inaccuracies. It can't seem to understand what it is gathering. So I consider it worse than poorly researched/written human content because at least writers are usually less likely to write totally inaccurately. But both are simply regurgitating what they read without knowing whether the original source was true or not.
@@Growmap Human beings are also full of inaccuracies. A lot of Internet content today is made of plain lies: intended, unintentional, lies that forced to be truth by repetition (mainly politics, but also any other subjective matter, even recipes), or things that the author wish that were true, but isn't (just search about digital marketing to see an example).
So, this is "regular" content on Internet pushed weekly because this "need" to happen to stay relevant, we can do this kind of thing by AI supervised by humans, no problem at all. The final content is totally equivalent. If can contain eventual (and it will become less frequent with machine learning, as learn across time is a thing that not all humans do) "hallucinations", human content also have it.
Maybe this free ourselves to do the right thing: write something on the internet only when we have something to say, not because we need to.
Ive seen people rank position 1 for medical related headings but all the remaining text on the blog is just lorem ipsum. The power of backlinks.
You have to ask WHY anyone would do that? What is the point of ranking a page with placeholder text on it? Just throwing money away for no reason?
how do you know on Fiverr who is legit and who is bs or blackhat.
filter down to top rated sellers with many many positive reviews, they will give you dofollow, white hat links.

Why Google hates what you're doing - you ask the question repeatedly but fail to give the answer. The problem is that with false backlinks pushing up shi*y content, Google loses credibility. People won't find what they're looking for and look somewhere else. The solution to this ongoing backlink business is already there, just needs a little fine-tuning. It's the AI. In the near future, backlinks will be dropped, and AI technology will evaluate what the content is worth and how does it correspond to what the searcher wants.
Well...how many people build links to crappy content? Most of the time, businesses either build links to pages that are monetized or to their very best content. Who would spend money trying to rank bad content? It has to be really good to stay at the top of the SERPs.
Now, way too many people publish crappy content just for the link. But that's another thing. And I don't understand why they do that. What is the point of having a link in lousy content no one wants to read or link to so it can't ever get higher PA?
I hope no one is out there building links to lousy content from other lousy content to try to rank it. But how humans interact with it should push it down, right?
