Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's)

Answers To Our Most Commonly Asked Questions..

 

How Much Of My Time Will It Take To Run This?

None. Once you've taken a few minutes to complete our application form and set up your PayPal subscription payment, your work is effectively done. All the time-consuming posting, site management, copy creation and indexing is down to the team of specialists at our end. We take care of all the on-going work and maintenance.

Do I Need To Upload And Install Any Software On My Website?

No, there's absolutely nothing to upload and install onto your site.

How Do I Subscribe?

Click on the "Subscribe Now" button to the right and you will be taken to the Subscribe page. You will then be able to select your level of membership and arrange your monthly subscription payment through PayPal.

PayPal will then send you an email confirming that the first payment has been made and that the ongoing subscription has been created. This email will contain your unique 'Subscription Number'. We use this number as your Membership ID, to avoid having to remember multiple ID's etc.

Each month you will get an email from PayPal when the payment is made, which will also remind you of your Subscription Number. It is best to file these emails as a receipt of each payment made.

What Is The Submission Process

To submit the URL's and keywords that you wish to drive traffic to, click on the 'Members' tab at the top of the page. First, select your Subscription level. Then enter your Name & Email Address (the same one you registered with PayPal) and Membership ID (PayPal Subscription Number - found on any of the payment emails.) Then fill in each of the URL's (web page/site addresses) with the corresponding keywords you've chosen. Help and advice on how to pick these is found on the "SEO Basics" tab at the top of the page.

NOTE: Although the Members page will seemingly allow a member on the 10 slot package to access the 20 slot page, we do obviously have a system which checks this - so only those members who are paying for a double membership will get the benefits of the second 10 slots!

Does The System Allow Me To Change Where I Point My Links?

Yes it does, but we ask you to change infrequently or not at all, as the whole point is to build large numbers of links to one place and allow them to age. You'll be given as much time as you need to choose your anchor combinations once you've registered as a subscriber. See the SEO Theory page for background and advice on how to select your pages and keyword. Frequent changes will dilute your effectiveness, as historically generated back-links cannot be redirected.

Is This A Legitimate Method Of Building Links?

Yes it is, this is all 'white hat' Search Engine Optimisation and fully Google, Yahoo & Bing/MSN legal - so completely within all the rules. You can be confident that you're dealing with a professional company and not doing anything that would be considered wrong in any way.

Can This System Put My Site At Risk In Any Way?

Absolutely not. Our system is self-contained and is not connected to your sites in any way. If something happened and the search engines were to penalise our network in some way, this would have no effect on our subscribers (apart from the possible loss of a small percentage of inbound links to your site. That is the 'worst case' scenario.)

The search engines will only ever penalise a site that links OUT to a 'black-listed' site. They will never penalise a site for inbound links - that would be unfair - as you have no control over who links to you! If you linked out to a site that was black-listed, then the search engines may feel that you are promoting them and therefore penalise you.

This is why our system is one of the safest to adopt - as it has no footprint/code or functionality that runs on/from your site. It is completely external and provides inbound links to your site only.

This is the main reason why our Ethical Policy is strictly adhered to. If our reports indicate that we're linking out to a penalised site then that site will be immediately removed from the system to protect its integrity.

Can I Drive More Than One Of My Link Slots To The Same Page?

Yes you can. With each £37 subscription you'll have ten slots available. Each slot will generate around 100 links per month to that page via the anchor text of your choice. All ten could be directed to the same page or to completely different landing pages or sites.

Why Don't You Put Restrictions On Where A Link Can Point?

We want people to be able to link to any of their content on the web. If you want to build backlinks to one of your Squidoo lenses, you can do. If you'd like them to go to one of your Digg submissions - you can do that too. Flexibility is the name of the game. As long as you meet our Ethical Policy guidelines, then the sky is the limit.

What Are The Rules In Terms Of Who Can Use This System? (Our Ethical Policy)

We have strict rules on WHO can join the network, as we will not allow the network's integrity to be compromised and affect all our hard work. We will refuse any sites that engage in the following: Pornography, gambling, drug or pharmacy sales, link-spamming or black-hat practices. Our staff will hand-check EVERY page that we are provided to link to. If any page is found to contain or be part of a site that promotes these areas (or anything obviously illegal) then your site will not be approved for inclusion. If you have no other sites that are suitable then we will cancel your membership. If you're concerned about your site, email us with the URL's and we'll let you know. Don't worry though - we DO have a sense of humour - we're not trying to censor anything - we just need to make sure that everything we include doesn't 'cross the line' and affect everyone else. Our Directors discretion will be full and final.

How Does It Work?

We are not a link-farm - we manage a MASSIVE network of content and information sites. All the sites are search-engine friendly, fully SEO optimised and full of human-written content which grows daily - proper information articles and releases of hundreds to thousands of words on many different subjects. Your link is not 'spammed' in with hundreds of others on a page. We maintain a strict control of how many links appear on each page and never allow it to go beyond what the search engines like to see - plus each page is a unique content page - with no duplicates. All pages are added to the respective 'sitemap' for that site and submitted regularly to all the major search engines. This all adds up to the maximum amount of pages indexed in the quickest time. Adding a website into our program will often carry the advantage of getting you indexed in Google and the other search engines very quickly.

Why Should I Stay With This Link-Building System?

Every month you'll get the benefit of 1,000 more web pages pointing towards your sites. As long as you stay in, this will keep on increasing. For members that stay loyal, we'll also add back-links into a growing number of our hundreds of thousands of exisiting pages as a bonus. This means that your links will be coming from an increasing variety of genuine sources and IP addresses. Remember, we built this system for our own use - so it will be continually expanded upon, improved and diversified - you can just enjoy the ride!

The real key to success and longevity of page ranking (and thus visitors to your website) is a continual growth of diverse back-links. As with any subscription system, your links will only remain in place whilst you are an active member of the program.

What's The Catch?

There isn't one, but don't expect instant results. That's one of the reasons why we've kept the price low - this is something that can just sit in the background and be forgotten about. Your back-links (and consequently your presence on the web) will build solidly and progressively over the months. You should also use as many other diverse methods as you are able to afford and manage. All the main back-link building methods are covered on the 'More Info' page.

Can I Get A List Of The Sites Where My Links Come From?

We don't want hundreds of people regularly visiting our network of sites to 'check-up' on their links and create extra traffic and load on the servers. For this reason we don't provide a list of site links. We need the machines free to be able to handle the enormous amount of search engine spidering and visits that they get - we want them as unencumbered as possible. It would also create an artificial load on the sites which affects our tracking of the network.  Protecting the integrity of the network and our joint investment will always be our main concern. The primary objective of a system of this nature is to raise your website in the search engines via large-scale outbound link-building, not to attract traffic which is then diverted to your site via the links (although this may happen from time to time).

How Do I Know For Certain That My Links Are Building At A 1,000 Per Month?

In short you don't. Unfortunately, this is the nature of the beast when it comes to SEO and the internet. We have hundreds of thousands of pages that we've never visited or seen. We know they're out there benefiting us because of the continuing growth of Page Rank and increased placings in the natural search listings. We also have in-house software which monitors the network and gives us feedback and certain stats. The search engines will also 'spider' and index those pages at varying speeds, and no-one has any control over this.

It's a bit like going to the gym really - you know you're doing the right thing, but it takes time for the results to become visible. What you'll see is the effect of the back-links driving you up the search listings for the search terms you've specified.

Will Your System Create A Footprint On My Site?

No, it won't. There is nothing on your site that connects you to the network in any way.

How Do I Cancel My Subscription?

Cancelling your subscription is very easy, and it's completely under your own control. Simply log in to your PayPal account, locate the subscription transaction, and cancel your subscription there.

What Happens To My Links If I Cancel My Subscription?

When your subscription is cancelled, your links will remain fully active until your subscription period runs out. Let's say, for example, you subscribed on April 10th. That means your paid subscription period runs until May 9th. If you cancel your subscription on April 30th, your account will remain in paid status until May 9th; because that's the period you have paid for. At the end of your subscription period your links will be disabled. They will then remain dormant in the system for 30 days. If you subsequently revive your account to paid status within those 30 days, your links will be restored and they will automatically be activated again.

IMPORTANT: In order to protect ourselves and other members, and to maintain the integrity of the network, we reserve the absolute right to cancel any membership or suspend back-links to a particular site where in our sole discretion we consider it damaging to the network in any way. You would be notified of any such action. We cannot control or guarantee how the search engines will index any backlinks that we create and whether they will be included in any of their directories.
