I've been getting killer results with SEOLinkvine. Two of my keywords are on page 1 of Google. The first keyword use to be page one, position #10. Now it's page 1 position #1. The other I couldn't even find in Google, it was buried that deep. Now it's page 1, position #2. I'll have to monitor it for a while to see where they settle out but so far I'm kind of impressed.

LOL mostly from me Clayton.
Jesse, it will take 2-3 months for your backlinks from ama to show up, and about a month for them to disapear, unless you happen to get an article on one of the very few blog owners who actually do anything to promote the blog, and try to use the content that they have built up.
AMA is garbage. I was in the same boat. 5 articles submitted, each published about 90+ times with a 90+% acceptance rate and only have about 30 backlinks to show for it.
Does anyone have any suggestions on a replacement for AMA? Their customer service is horrible so I've canceled my subscription.
I've heard very positive reviews on SEO Linkvine, from someone I know, but was also considering SENuke.

Funny you should ask. I've only had time to put one site up so far and it seems to have gotten hit hard. I was at position #10 for one of my keywords (which is also my URL) and now it's no where to be found. Traffic Travis suggests it's been delisted? Would love to know what the Google update entailed but further SEO testing might be needed. I hope I didn't get the Google Slap. Not sure why I would have, I didn't have many backlinks and were only building a few a day. Tuesday, June 29th, 2010
There lies the problem. I'm sick and tired of a lot of the big players lying to us.
I make my living as an affiliate marketer and an seo consultant and I used to believe these guru's. However the more you look into it they are willing to lie to get monetary gain. Really shocking and disappointing.
Probably only about 3 of them I would trust in the world!
Fake it till you make it. lol
Note from Mark: See my response and Daniel Turner's full response on page 3 of this thread. I'm all for freedom of speech, which is why no comments in this thread have been edited or anything, but I must let you know that there are no more trustworthy marketers that Marc and Daniel. I've met a lot of them and I do my utmost to protect my list from these guys. You have no idea how many run-ins with 'fake gurus' that I have had over the years and how many people's products that I turn down when their launches come around. I thought Marc and Daniel had a very good product - particularly for only $77. Regarding the income claims that this thread is about, firstly these are just 3 of their many websites, secondly, their staff were moving wordpress themes for their affiliate sites and it screwed up the links and the dates on the posts. If you check the whois records those sites have been around a year or two each.

I think it stands for article marketing automation, a way of getting your articles posted to a lot of 3rd party blogs
Which brings me to a credibility issue here. Here's what AMA clams on their site:
In a recent poll (16th May 2009) of all articles in AMA we found that they ranked for their targeted keywords like this:
* 10% held a #1 Position
* 41% held a 1st Page Position
* 20% held a 2nd Page Position
* 10% held a 3rd Page Position
* 29% held a top 40-100 Position
Seeing how they're obviously claiming income on a site that wasn't even monetized, how can we be sure these numbers are accurate or even truthful?

What is more concerning is that they and Mark are showing sites that are "succesful" when in fact its obvious they are not. The posts had just gone up and one of them did not even have affiliate links on it despite it supposedly earning $250 a month. Really bites into their credability and ethics.
They've removed the post dates from their WP theme's and have now monetized the sites. They should be making $500 a month now! LOL!

Great post! I've been wondering how to automate the process of adding the code to each of my pages. Question for anyone with plugin experience; if I was to add the WP plugin to my blog, would the plugin automatically update each new page with the analytics code when I create a new post? So in other words, if I installed the plugin today, would the plugin automatically add the google analytics code to a page created 3 months from now? Thanks again!
