Get more value out of SENuke

I want to be honest with you – actually SENuke (X, XCr) probably wouldn’t even be on my radar if it was not so much integrated with two products from Jonathan Leger. Anyone who read my blog here for a time certainly knows that I am a big fan of his products. I have lots of experience with both The Best Spinner as well as Article Builder, and guess what – both products have been heavily integrated with SENuke XCr. SEnuke uses both products for the tasks they are best in, creating lots and lots of unique content. With the help of the two JL tools SENuke X CR becomes a much more powerful weapon in the SEO fight. You just enter your program account API credential in the SENuke settings and you are ready to go.
Now the problem is, Jon’s tools are high quality tools and as such they also come with a cost that related to that (Hmm, well on second thought, they are quite affordable for that type of performance they deliver 😉 ).
Anyhow. Jon decided that as it makes so much sense to not only use SEnuke but use it in conjunction with his two power tools, that he is going to give away the two tools as a bonus, more information on his terms and how to get them can be found on his website SENukeBonus.net Probably this is the best way to get maximum value out of SENUke.
In case you are not familiar with what SENUke actually does, here is is the gist:
I view it as a robot that you can tell in an easy way how your link building strategy should look like. It then goes out and does all the tedious jobs for you in an automated way. The good thing is, it knows quite a lot of different ways and places where you can find backlinks, and even if there is a website or a method that it does not know yet, you can give instructions how to handle those or use scripts from other users and SEnuke will integrate that new method into it’s arsenal for you. You are completely in control as you can use the drag and drop interface to design your link building campaign and then determine a period for how long your campaign should run on autopilot.
Now I want to stress one very important aspect of using SENuke:
While it is very easy to use, there are also dangers: Certainly you have heard of the Panda and Penguin google updates and that google generally aims at counting only high quality content when it comes to evaluating links that should be taken into account for actual rankings. Without Article Builder the quality of the content that SENuke produces might not match the quality criteria google uses.
In fact, if you take a look at the screenshot of the SENuke Turbo wizard on their website (www.senuke.com, also watch the video while you are there), you will notice that the content quality settings read “Use low quality” and “Use high quality” – and the latter setting requires Article Builder as a prerequesite…
If you don’t want to run the risk of getting a penalty you should obviously opt for high quality.
Another thing for new users is how to decide what the best strategy could look like.
My advice: Have a close look on how your competitions link profile looks like. Emulate what those who are extremely successful in you niche do. If you need help with link profile analysis, I can probably help.

Get backlinks with article marketing

An excellent and proven way to get backlinks is to write an article about your topic and publish it at article sites.
Most article sites allow you to put one or two links in the article and/or in your author bio box. Depending on the article site, your article may be picked up by other webmasters looking for content and be published on their websites. If you write good content, your articles might be republished at many other sites which can give you a decent amount of backlinks. If if your article doesn’t get picked up at all, you can still get quite a few backlinks just by submitting to several sites.

Here are a few article directories where you can post your articles:
http://www.ezinearticles.com
http://www.goarticles.com
http://www.infobarrel.com/
http://www.webpronews.com
http://site-reference.com
http://www.articledashboard.com
http://www.topica.com/lists/free_articles
http://www.articlesbase.com
http://www.articles.web.com
http://articles.easywordpress.com
http://articles.directorygold.com
http://www.afroarticles.com/article-dashboard/
http://www.articlefriendly.com
http://www.articlewheel.com/
http://www.top-affiliate.com/articles
http://www.articles-hub.com
http://nero.byethost15.com
http://www.submityournewarticle.com
http://www.articlerich.com
http://www.articlecafe.net

Now some article directories require you to write unique content and you may not reuse it on other directories.
Another thing is that logging in to all those sites and submitting your articles manually is time consuming. Lets say you have already written your article (which takes quite some time, too, if you do not outsource it), it will take you about ten minutes per article site.
For a lazy guy like me this meant looking for solutions – and I found some.
There are lots of article writing and submitting software on the internet, in another post you find a review and comparison of three:
Article Software Comparison.
Another good place to post your articles is on other blogs, you can do that as a guest author, if the blog will let you or you can use systems like 1waylinks and Neurolinker to place your articles on other blogs.

You don’t have to buy an office program

One of the improvements I added to the blog finder is that the results are now delivered as xls sheets.

This means you can use the autofilter feature to filter for a certain PageRank, for CommentLuv or KeywordLuv and of course for do-follow blogs or nofollow blogs.

Very short after the launch I got an email:

“Nice service, but what have you thought by sending xls files?? I do not have Microsoft Exel and I don’t intend to buy it! Your service has become worthless!”

Let me assure you: I do not own Microsoft Excel, too. Nevertheless I can open and work with excel files as I use StarOffice. Now you could say there is no difference whether I buy one or the other, both are expensive enough. But that is not quite true, because I got StarOffice for free, it is part of the free Google Pack.

You can download it for free together with some other cool pieces of software:

If you don’t want the google pack and just need an office package, try OpenOffice. It is Open Source and it is the base that StarOffice is built upon:

Do-Follow and WordPress 2.7

What a shame!
Now I run a blog that is all about Do-Follow blogs and how to find Do-Follow blogs and I am not able to remove the Nofollow tag on my own blog!
Thanks to a hint from one of my readers, I finally noticed that the links on my blog were actually nofollow – wordpress’ standard…
What had happened? First I had the suspicion that a new version of the Platinum SEO plugin, which I can highly recommend, superseded the setting from my “Follow URL” plugin… but after some research I found out, that it was just an incompatibility issue with wordpress 2.7. I now use Nofollow Free as the plugin of choice and the problem is solved 😉
