Private SEO Ring

[milkmanuk]

Is anyone interested in starting up a private SEO ring? Basically we will discuss seo secrets, rate other members google places accounts(legally of course), retweet each others tweets here and there(if it's useful info), +1 Google(if we like each others sites, and their clients sites), facebook share etc. Looking for 20 SEO guys.. PM me if interested.

 

[thetime22]

just pm'd you. Heard about this at an SEO conference.. seo experts sharing info in private and helping each other out.

private groups ( rings ) is the only way to go in this business

Er Pass.

I can't imagine anything worse than a quorum of SEO's.

The top SEO forums have inner circle forum areas that are by invite only. It is in these areas that stuff is debated test results are shared and resources pooled.

Earl, you're like the Groucho Marks of SEO, wouldn't want to be a member of any club that will have you.

Thought: If a collection of crows is referred to as a 'murder', what would a collection of SEO's be named?

Perhaps a 'fleming' based on the 007 theme by Earl

Im starting to work your posts out, that one means you're a secret squirrel

 

[milkmanuk]

who else is in?

 

[Phillip SEO]

PM'd.

As mentioned, i'm now living in Sydney. Still, i've got a decent following and plenty to contributte.

I participate in one already - It is indeed effective. But... it's longevity is questionable - Google can sometimes work out a "friend" network.

How do you call strikeout these days?

 

[unet]

so whos putting this together? - closed forum? skype ring? etc.

 

[terryuk]

You may as well set up a PTC site, Paid To Click 1+... cheap as chips

My thoughts exactly.

however I think "friend" networks exist naturally all over the place. I imagine their contributions are just marginalised, instead of omitted completely.

In terms of Twitter re-tweets and @ mentions increase the credibility of your Twitter contributions overall.

Still I think this is a potentially very useful and exciting project.

This is way WAY overdue. Fact is if you speak to any top SEO's theywill tell you straight up that you need to belong to a ring. Make it happen. There will be punishment +1'ing each other from matured accounts... friends do tend to like the same things.. darr

Who decides who is best qualified to join? How do you know you aren't going to get a bunch of wannabees who have got a couple of site to rank #1 by luck rather than any real skill. UKBF is full of linkbuilders who reckon that's enough to call themselves an SEO expert. It's mostly BS.

I decide. If those 'wannabees' have matured twitter, youtube, and gmail accounts they are more than welcome to join. Fact is you can only run so many experiments by yourself, if you have a bunch of people experimenting together your going to learn stuff that you wouldn't of done so otherwise.

Yeah, this is a big worry.

95% of SEO's can't do SEO!

I think we'll see who the real value adders are once we start sharing ideas and resources. And for the others, it doesn't hurt to help people out but if they don't pull their weight and hold us back by being 1. unhelpful or 2. damaging to SEO efforts then its not hard to click "delete"

SEO ring, I thought the last ring got destroyed with Gollum...

Isn't there an SEO ring in Cantebury, don't they do sarnies in the rubber room, before the parties begin....

 

[Baz Watkins]

TBH I'd join an SEO ring, but I wouldn't bring anything to the table, I'd just be learning the tricks of the trade.

I doubt many will be giving away much tricks...

I think the idea was to +1 each others website, great if you like to share all your ideas

Not sure how that this relates to SEO. A really good SEO practitioner won't be using their primary accounts for testing, they will have a whole bunch of dummy sites, emails and the such which often lapse once the test is over. Therefore they won't be able to show you a mature anything. In any case, do you really think anyone with any sense is going to use twitter for a private SEO ring?

Cool a matured dummy account. That's fine.

I'd love an invite to one of the secret forums

Consider that if you were really good at your job and contributing to the right forums you would already have the invite....

That is quite lame :redface:

 

[RadiusBPO]

Yeah true - I very rarely visit SEO forums except for this one. Too busy working or playing outside. Maybe I should invest more time in other forums. Which would be the best investment though - other biz forums where there are potential clients or other SEO forums where I can have more arguments about content vs links?

Although I cannot comment as I'm not a member of other forums - I do have a few friends in SEO though who I share and receive info from and have my own 100 or so test sites as well as a few hundred we manage for various clients...

Everytime I see you post you are being a smug, arrogant know-it-all.

You're always being condescending as though you're the world's best internet marketer and it is rather irritating.

Gosh. Bit lost for words now. I'll try not to be so smug and arrogant. Probably need to use more smileys.

Im not sure what he is being smug about, the websites in his portfolio are nothing short of BRUTAL

Ooops sorry I thought you were addressing me.:|

Only I am much more arrogant and smug than Fisicx.

Plus I am the worlds best internet marketer.

So easy mistake for me to make.
