Buy Viagra Study

This could be your big chance!

I’m going to give you my theory on how to rank in the top ten for ‘buy viagra’, (and many other phrases), in MSN’s Live.com search engine. Woot!

I will support my theory with an actual example taken from live.com ‘buy viagra’ SERPs.

However, let’s get the problems with Live.com out of the way first.

1. I have no idea how often Live.com updates it’s index, so you will just have to wait it out.

2. Live.com does not get a large piece of the pie when it comes to search traffic.

The good news is that visitors from Live.com convert much better than visitors from Yahoo or Google, well, that’s what I’ve been hearing for years. So, if you are doing pay per click, you are not going to make your fortune with Live.com, there’s just not enough traffic. However, if you are selling a higher priced item, like $50 or $100 per order, or more, you might do very, very well. These people surf with their credit card in their hand.

Ok, the victim subject of my analysis is www.buy-viagra.name.

They hold the #1 and #2 spots for ‘buy viagra’ in Live.com.

Unless things have changed, the .name extension is supposed to be for people’s names, like bompa.name, or joesmith.name, etc. So, when I see one like buy-viagra.name, I am suspicious immediately.

Anyways, I first viewed their page with my Firefox browser with the PageRank plugin. I understand that PageRank is Google’s thing and has nothing to do with the ranking algorithms other search engines, nevertheless, I wanted to see Google’s opinion of the “importance” of their homepage.

Their homepage is PR0.

So, I find it interesting that a page that Google thinks has zero importance would rank #1 and #2 in Live.com, afterall, Google’s PageRank is an objective, mathematical analysis of the value of incoming links relative to the entire web.

Next, I tried using Live.com to get a list of buy-viagra.name’s backlinks. (yah, right.)

“We did not find any results for link:buy-viagra.name.”

“We did not find any results for linkdomain:buy-viagra.name.”

I tried using Live.com’s Advanced Search:

“We did not find any results for buy-viagra.name link:http://buy-viagra.name”

Finally, I gave up and decided to use Yahoo Explorer site to get a list of their backlinks.

According to Yahoo Explorer buy-viagra.name has about 980 incoming links. I noticed in the first ten a lot of links from pages that have ‘links’, ‘partners’, or ‘resources’, in the URL, leading me to believe that buy-viagra.name has joined a link exchange program and sure’nuff, at the bottom of their homepage is “Powered by LinkExchanged.com”.

Is this their secret?

No! More than likely they joined the link exchange hoping to get at least 1,000 links and therefore preventing snooping eyes (like me) from seeing their real linking secrets.

On the second page of Yahoo Explorer’s list of buy-viagra.name’s backlinks, I started to see a pattern in the names of the domains the links are coming from.

• buy-cheap-online-viagra.netcomltd.ca
• buy-order-viagra.naturalpethealth.ca
• buy-cheapest-viagra.netcomltd.ca
• buy-viagra.bandfestvictoria.ca

I guess the pattern is pretty obvious, no wonder they tried to “wash” their links with the link exchange site. They have setup a network of sites that will all link to the main money site. Of course, they might all be inter linking back and forth, and buy-viagra.name just got lucky (of the bunch) by ranking #1 and #2, I dunno, I don’t have the patience to fully analyze their linking stucture.

This self-owned network of sites giving backlinks used to be common practice in Google as well, but I think when Google advanced in the SE market share (to over 50%), the whitehat webmasters started turning in (spam report), the interlinking networks; when Google’s traffic increased, the SERPs became worth fighting for. That’s my theory on that.

This post is getting way to long, so I will end by showing the IPs to which a few the above domain names resolve.

All on the same class C.

Visit a few of those sites and you will see that all the content and all the anchored text is 100% relevent to ‘buy viagra’.

So, that’s the formula.

Instead of hunting for related sites, then begging for a link, you create those related sites and then you control the content and the links. Why not? Is there a law against you owning a bunch of related portals? McDonalds, BurgerKing, Kentucky Fried Chicken, Sears, Walmart, etc. etc. It’s acually a normal business model.

Create as many as you like.
