0:52 What a Guest Blog Backlink Actually Is
called a guest blog post so think of this as a high quality connection from another website online so what what we’re looking at here is just a Blog on a website and and this blog basically essentially is a blog post that’s relevant to what my client is my client is a general contractor and essentially you’ve seen these kind of blogs before it’s essentially just you know the benefits of working with one and you can see the whole article here it’s like 500 or a th000 words and then in the article there’s a link here to on there’s a link to my client website and on this link it says Asheville Home Remodeling and then on the link itself if I click it it goes to my client right so so this is a link that’s super valuable and the reason why this blog is valuable is this what we’re looking at here is a

1:50 Domain Authority and Why Link Quality Matters
website that tells me how strong this website connection is how strong this link is okay and so what I’m specific looking at here is this this link the overall reputation of this website is a 47 and so because this number is relatively High then Google pays attention to this link on this website and what anything that happens on this link Google pays extra attention to and so if you were to go anywhere online and make a brand new blog and connect that link somewhere that link would be a zero right so this link is like 47 times more powerful than just a random blog on a random website right and so what we basically have been doing is we’ve done 10 of these in

2:44 Keyword Rankings Jump from 14 to 46 Terms
December and January and these 10 links from 10 other places online have made a huge impact on this local Builder so what we’re looking at here is the yellow in this little diagram is how many are at the top of Google and so we went with like we had initially like I think five or six terms at the top of Google about a month ago going back and we scroll down here around January 2nd we had 14 terms at the top of Google around January 2nd or so the end of December and then now we have 46 terms at the top of Google so what I mean is 15 terms here and then 46 terms at the top of Google here and so really what it comes down to is how many different searches are at the top of Google as you get more searches to the top of Google as it goes from 14 to 19 to 38 to we had as much as 65 terms at the top of Google but now there’s around 46 as there’s more searches at the top of Google then this translates into people seeing you and people saying hey I’m really looking for this service or product you offer and this translates into more leads and more visibility for your business so again from fif from 14 to 46 searches at the top of Google in 30 days I don’t normally see this kind

4:07 Visibility Score Climbs from 5 to 14 Percent
of growth normally it’ll go from 15 to 20 or 15 to 25 and so this here is a measure of what’s called visibility and this is basically we essentially have gone from this 5% visibility to 14% visibility in 30 days and just as a recap this visibility number here is how high are you in Google as you get more searches in in the at the top of Google this visibility goes up so you can see it around 5% and then it’s gone up to about 14% right ooo that’s me trying to write 14% And so I can specifically see what has moved up and now these are this these guys are home renovation contractors so the searches we’re going that we’re wanting to move up are kitchen bath remodeling contractors this particular term was at the bottom Google’s first page page there’s 10 positions on a page it was at the bottom Google’s first page and this went from seven sort of the bottom Google’s first page to position one which is the top of Google and this went up six positions and there are 10 people a month looking for this term in South Asheville so this one term moved up basically six

positions now this one here remodels near me moved from Google’s 7eventh page to the top of Google it moved up 59 positions in 30 days which is kind of insane there’s some people a month looking for that so I can go down this list and see what exactly moved up so some of the turns moved up near the top of Google which is position two some of these were home remodeling near me so these one this one went from Google’s thirdd page to the top of Google you know position one two or three so I can see all of these turns moved up and and you know it’s been pretty awesome like home edition near me home remodel contractor Home Remodeling cont contractors so all these turns totally moved up and and we’re actually tracking an area we’re tracking essentially on a

6:07 Citywide Asheville Rankings Starting to Move
mobile phone in south of Asheville the area where I’m based out of so there is a fair amount of people in this area but if I look here in Asheville which is the actual large city not South Asheville which is ardan in Asheville which is a larger metropolitan area on a mobile phone we went from about. 5% visibility to 4% visibility in the entire area so again visibility is how high are you and we went from 0.5 to 4% here and here’s the 0. five or 04 up to 5% so I can look here and see now we’re tracking an entire city versus a small part of a city so this is going to take longer for that to move up but I can see our major terms addition contract you’re near me went from Google’s you know third page so the top is technically one two or three and we’re seeing basically it going near the top which is position four and so addition contractor near me I can see that this term basically showed up around January 24th and it stayed at the top the last couple weeks and so I can see all of these terms that have moved up addition near me home edition Builder home edition builders near me a home edition near me addition builders near me so we’re basically looking at an olive Asheville

7:30 Next Steps and Who This Strategy Fits
we’re looking at around 15 terms or so that are on Google’s first page and aren’t at the top and if I look at a 30-day period we started with basically no we started with nothing on Google’s first page on January second and now we have 15 terms on Google’s first page not at the top they’re not yellow yet yellow is at the top but we have 15 terms that have moved up to the middle of Google’s first page or near the top and basically over the next month or so we’re going to get all these terms that are near the top addition contractor near me and get that to move to position three two or one home edition Builder near me Edition near me so all of these will continue to move up so all I have to say this strategy of doing highquality links from other websites really works and I’ve been trying to find a team that will do this for a while like I mentioned to you on the phone and I’m really happy with this new team and this is making me Reach Out to you and other people I worked with in the past and saying hey this actually works so if you come across a home if you come across anybody that does home editions that wants this kind of growth that’s awesome remodelers home editions but also cancer nonprofits like yourself or other kind of companies out there that want visibility this is working and I’d like to bring on five new clients in the next quarter that you know are really competitive where it’s really you know challenging to move them up and with this new team with this new strategy I can definitely get them to the top of Google it’ll probably take 90 to 120 days doing 10 links 10 connections a month but I know it can do it all right talk to you soon I’m jerem with push thanks
