SEO Link Vine

SEO
Link Vine is a
new service from
Brad Callen known
for his other very
popular products
like Keyword
Elite, SEO Elite
and others. This
service is a blog
network that you can
syndicate your
articles to, or join
to get fresh new
content.The purpose of such
blog network is to
generate back-links
and traffic. Most
Internet marketers
write articles and
submit them to
article directories
for the same effect,
but the submission
process is time
consuming, the
quality of most
directories is low
and that affects the
results can you get.
The great thing
about networks
like SEO Link
Vine is that for
a monthly fee you
can submit as many
articles as you want
and have them
distributed
automatically over
time to blogs of a
decent quality.
There are many
advantages of that.
First of all,
it’s fast and
easy – you
don’t have to
spend hours
submitting articles,
and you don’t
even have to wait
for your article
submitter do it if
you use one. Next,
the distribution is
natural in terms of
search engine
optimization. You
need a continuous
flow of links and
using such a network
removes the extra
hustle to regularly
submit articles
– all you have
to do is submit them
once and forget
about them.
Finally, the quality
of blogs is higher
than an average
article directory
(except those based
on blogging software
such as Wordpress).
The architecture of
blogs is a lot more
search engine
friendly, which
improves the
indexing and ranking
of your articles.
Looking at SEO Link
Vine from another
perspective,
it’s a source
of fresh content for
your site. If you
need content, you
can plug in your
website to get
content written and
submitted to you by
other members
automatically.

I’m just wondering if it is a bunch of general blogs with articles about beauty products, and then a gun holster’s on the same blog? or is there any way to pick where the articles go?

Thanks i needed to find out what others have to say about it coz i intend on using it for my masai mara safari website.

I cannot see how this will work. The problem with the blog owners is the following:
Google DEFINITELY penalize you if you link to a bad website. I’m sure there will be a lot of link builders linking to sites Google hate. This will make the blogs look like link farms.
Don’t know about you but I will never let them put their links on my site.

Franco, blog owners have an option to approve posts prior to publishing and see what links they have.
It has been working for years, I don’t see why it wouldn’t now. There are plenty of networks like this and SEO Link Vine is just another one to add to them.

In your opinion, is SEO LinkVine better or not compared to the Keyword Academy “Post Runner” system?
May 5th, 2010 at 3:12 pm
I’ve never used Post Runner and don’t know how it works, but from what I gather it’s a network of blogs where you can choose where you want to make a guest post, right?
If so, I think it would be like comparing apples and oranges. Both are just link sources but work differently. In SEO Link Vine you don’t get to choose where your posts will go (other than category) and it’s more hands-off (sort of a content distribution/syndication service).

@Freddy J, it depends. Most of the blogs are from different users so there are more “themed” (more or less) blogs just like in My Article Network and similar services.
The general content blogs are usually dominant where an entire network is owned by the same company (ex. Linkvana) or where credits are issued for publishing content.
If you want relevant content links, SEO Link Vine is one place to get them.

I was very skeptical of the power of seo link vine, I have tried a few of is other “proven methods” with no results, but I must say I went from #15 to #2 in the world for a very popular keyword in my field after only 1 week. You want proof my keyword is above in the name area with my site linked in it. Google it for your self seo link vine is awesome!

I will really try this product! Can i join the program stipulated in this product though i don’t have my own domain name?
May 28th, 2010 at 12:25 pm
As far as I can tell you don’t need to have a domain name to promote a site.

Link generators can often be a major league SCAM. Whys that ? Well mostly because robots generate your traffic, and thus noone will buy anything from you.

Robbie,
What you’re saying makes little sense especially in this context.
First of all, links are links. If you know anything about SEO, you know that who creates them is irrelevant.
And SEO Link Vine is about links, not traffic. You get traffic when you rank high in the SERPs, this is just a tool to help you.
I can assure you it’s not a scam, it’s a good blog network.

I joined last week and submitted a few articles, but none have been distributed yet. It’s been about four days. Are too many people using this service now and what is the true wait for an article to start distribution?
June 27th, 2010 at 10:17 pm
“Seo link vine is about link.” My question. “do you allow backlinks to internal pages?…as opposed to just the root of the domain?”
June 27th, 2010 at 11:53 pm
From my experience the major issue is there is virtually no quality control. The quality of the blogs in the network are pretty crap – with the vast majority newly set up just for this purpose. And the articles submitted tend to be pretty poor too from what I’ve seen (has anyone ever had one rejected..?).
So yes, you can generate a few hundred links fairly easily IF you pick a topic that happens to have lots of blogs in it (there’s no way to find that out in advance!).
But the question is, are hundreds of backlinks from crappy blogs worth anything. In the short term, maybe, for the ones that actuall get indexed. In the long term, probably not.
June 28th, 2010 at 9:45 am
@Venice – yes, you can link to internal pages.
@Baz – yep, links from crappy blogs aren’t worth much but they are still links. I’ve been using networks like this for a couple of years and in the long run, it’s those few good blogs that are in there that make a difference. At the end of the day it’s another source to get backlinks. I find that for the networks like this you simply have to submit more articles to reach the better blogs.

I’ve posted 2 articles on SLV now – One on the 24th June and one on the 25th.
NEITHER have moved into published status… They are both pending… over a week later. None have been distributed and I’m still paying on a monthly basis. There is also no way to contact them or send a support ticket.
My opinion right now : Avoid….
If that changes I will update this comment but I can’t help but feel cheated at the moment.

Here’s the url for their support: http://www.bradcallen.com/support/

Thanks for the info and even the comments. If you submit an article are they automatically drip fed into the blog network or are they moderated by blog owners?
July 5th, 2010 at 6:08 am
It depends on the particular blog, some accept automatically, some are moderated.
July 7th, 2010 at 3:28 pm
@Baz – I am wondering which network you are referring to. I personally use postrunner from TKA and have since its inception. True, it is a little more work because you have to pick your blogs, but a lot of the blogs are of good quality. They are also categorized, so you can pretty much lazer target your niche with your article. If you own a site about losing weight and want a link back from a PR4 weight loss site with a $5k semrush value, you can get that with postrunner.

I purchased SEO link vine with high hopes. There is a possible chance that it might work for some sites, but it really did not work for mine. I consider Google Webmaser tools to be the ultimate arbiter on the links that Google is actually seeing. None of the so called “published articles” ended up appearing here (that is after a month).
Also most of my articles were rejected by “publishers”, perhaps they just aren’t into business solutions such as our chartgantt package. Anyhow, it was worth a try (still waiting to get my money back from the trial), but really did nothing for me. I found articlesbase to give much more rapidfire results in Google webmaster.

I purchased SEO Linkvine yesterday and have reasonably high hopes for it.
The principles are certainly sound enough, it gets you links and links are what you need. It also gives you content and providing you pick highly unique content. I cant see that being much of a problem, the list of articles suggested for your site indicates the percentage uniqueness and you can always disregard those that dont meet your expectations.
My mian worry is that the niche I’m trialling with them at the moment is a very narrow niche so I’m wondering if there will be enough blogs in the system to give me good coverage. I’m going to be running a full in depth case study including stats at my own blog that some folks may be interested in.
