Hey yall
Saw something interesting today and wanted to share. @Ryuzaki started a thread/case study about freshness and "updated date/publish date" and this ties in to what he's sayin there.
Here's what happened.
Had a review page ranking 1-3 for years, let go of a bunch of PBNs (lost the...
I literally grabbed some popcorn while reading this thread.
@Zach is on point with everything. I worked at an agency for a couple years too and it was a fuckin shit show.
It's ALL about the spin to clients.
Now that I freelance with a couple SEO clients I have to deal with these knobs every...
Shit Son...
I almost forgot the important stuff:
What Did You Learn:
I learned that SEO and PPC were not the only reliable sources of highly converting traffic. Traffic is literally everywhere. If it's on the internet, it can be leaked to your own site. This mentality will live with me...
Wow... So It's winding down.
This was a pretty crazy experience for me. Firstly I have to humbly thank from the bottom of my heart emp, MetaData and CCarter.
I am in your debt forever, for opening my eyes and mind to new ways of thinking. For taking me in as part of the first CC9. That's...
Oh hi... Remember me? March was a month full of catastrophic fuckery in my bread and butter business (Thanks OVH!) but I'm back on track there and April's looking like it's full of new opportunities there too. But now that the machine is back up and running smooth, Im back to BuSo - missed this...
Shit I was there too brother, staring at forums not really doing shit - I was overthinking shit a lot and overcomplicating things. Had to step back and re-focus on what the fundamental idea was.
Seems like this is a tough road for all of us but we'll all get there..
That's awesome - I just...
February 2015 Update:
Wussup y'all I'm sorry I left things this long, but I swear I wasn't pullin an ABH (hah) - I was busy grindin on all my different projects.
I've been compiling this thread for the last couple weeks, so it may be disjointed a bit. I was struggling at first as I tried to...

Carter was completely right. My targeting was way off base, which is fucked considering I have a customer profile I shouldve kept front and centre in my mind.
Here was my problem - my offers were based around Newbies, but my content was a bit higher level than a total newb. And the platforms I...
Traffic Leak Update #1:
OK boys and girls Im back with a proper update
After Carter's kick in the ass about my useless updates, I knew I had to get on my game re: actually leaking traffic. So I went at it.
First thing I did was re-read through all the main TLBC lessons and make extensive...
Damn Carter, appreciate the kick in the ass. You're absolutely right. I'ma get on my game - next update will be a real one related to traffic. (but to be fair my onsite was ready within the first couple wks - I shouldve moved on sooner though instead of just updating the blog and doin social...
Just read a couple other threads here about reddit leaks and got reminded about CCarters advice on this and am definitely thinking differently again. Not always about being epic/unique.
You're right my dude - ima take your advice
Good job Kimoto 300 upvotes is no joke! This is the second post in bootcamp I saw today about reddit that made mention of "copy-pasting" and not caring about "unique" - really getting my mind working in different ways.
Nice job! I haven't touched reddit yet because of precisely what you said - haven't created any epic, compelling content to share yet. That's my next big goal, Keep up the grind homie
Sup yall
ok so I was able to stick to my goals from my last post. I've been for the most part staying on top of the social and blog posting (slipped up a little). I found that scheduling out social media posts a week in advance wasn't the best route for me.
It wouldve been if I stuck with...
Happy New Year Everyone,
Just wanted to apologize for my absence but I'm back after a nice little holiday where I was able to focus on some other, more immediate money-making projects. I'm also more motivated than ever. Carter's latest post (despite the arguing in the thread) and video about...
Update 1.75
Holy fuck... Aigh finally - this shit is ready to go. I've been working on content for the last week so sorry for the late update.
Everything on the site is ready for traffic. Opt-In Forms are ready to go, all the content on-site has been changed for a better focus on conversions...
Yea Ima jus grow it organically at this point - @ModernMarketeer at what number of followers do you find it helps with attracting those super profiles?
@lyannastark Im basically just going into my fb page like and removing them manually - its a bitch
@Kevin thanks for the suggestion. Im not...
Damn @MetaData - good fuckin points. Thanks for sharin g your speculation cuz I hadn't really thought about that but is true. I know FB engagement without paying is horrible, and you're right, now I'm going to have to pay for reach and half my reach (or more) will be to fake followers which is...
