Copy my ZERO Backlink SEO Strategy for Massive Google Traffic
in this video I'm going to give you a three-part SEO strategy that will get you massive traffic on Google yet requires zero link building whatsoever these are the same tactics I used to pop this vertical traffic boner for a website not even a year old absolutely no link building had been done up to this point now before you start smashing your keyboard with but Matt it's impossible to get websites to the top of Google with no link building understand that while link building is one of the most important ranking factors it's just one ranking Factor I'm going to show you three techniques that are just as powerful for getting huge traffic gains but it's not just me that's getting results like this my student Sasha's kid got the results you see below and he said quote he didn't create a single new backlink the first zero backlink technique on the menu is topical Authority and if you've already heard this before stick around because I have a unique Twist on it the concept of topical Authority works like this let's say you're starting a fitness site and you write your first article on how to do a dumbbell press hoping to get some of that sweet Google traffic meanwhile Google says I don't give a [ __ ] just because you write a single Fitness article doesn't mean you're an authority on Fitness in Google's quality Raider guidelines they mention a billion times that you need to establish e-eat in your content experience expertise authoritativeness and Trust one way to check off that Authority box is to prove it by covering every Fitness topic that you can this is the same concept that Corey tuckberg The Godfather of topical SEO uses to create traffic graphs that look like they took a whole pack of viagras so you know you need to write all the Articles the next step is to figure out all the articles that need to be written this is called creating a topical map now here's the thing that most people don't get let's say you're trying to achieve topical Authority for gym exercises we can agree that some topics are going to be more closely related to gym exercises than others if you write an article on dumbbell press That's straight up directly in your category it's going to help your topical Authority but if you write an article on hip flexor stretches sure it's something that happens in the gym and you might even call it a gym exercise but it's definitely not as relevant as a dumbbell press by this logic some articles are more beneficial than other for the purpose of building topical Authority let's agree on that so it makes sense that you'd want to prioritize these articles first let's ask Chachi BT the free AI tool to tell us what these articles are yo chat gbt give me 30 semantically relevant but unique topics under the main category of gym exercises and here you have it bench press squats deadlifts and even your friend shoulder press note there's no stretches in here now you can ask Chad GPT give me 10 different keyword variations of bench press that address a different search intent how to increase bench press best bench press workout bench press technique Nephew just repeat this for the 29 other exercises from before you now have a topical map of 300 highly relevant articles to the concept of gym exercises and these are the most important articles to write first if you like that tip let me know by Smashing the like button I'll make sure to give you more of them in the future now I know the whole point of this video is to avoid building links but how about if you didn't build them they just came in naturally in floods you can become a topical Authority for link bait content check this out the homie Brian Dean has this tool called exploding topics it's produced a ton of content on statistics like this article on blockchain statistics this article has freaking 907 referring domains linking to it because statistics content attract links like flies on but in order to get links to your statistics content you need to get eyeballs on it before they can link to it how do you do that you become a topical Authority on statistics content by producing a metric ass ton of it if I run a report natures and narrow it down to pages with Statistics in the title that's 47 pieces they've got the authority they've got the rankings and now the Links are coming in passively different types of Link bait content include infographics you make an infographic for every possible aspect of your Niche controversy pieces be a website that goes against the grain white bench press isn't as beneficial as people think while deadlift is a dead exercise in 2023 this stuff attracts links like mad or how about calculators you can make all the damn calculators possible in your Niche hell you can have chat gbt code your calculators for you hit chat jbt make me a BMI calculator in PHP now there's more to topical Authority in topical Maps but this is enough to get you started I got a video coming up on it soon so make sure to subscribe so you don't miss it in the meantime if you want to learn more about topical Authority now Corey tugbert created an exclusive training on it in my course the affiliate lab now this next backlink free strategy is by far the most overlooked and that's targeting zero search volume keywords but mad if these keywords have zero search volume then they won't bring any traffic to my website not true check out this keyword High ticket affiliate marketing niches between 0 and 10 search volume on hrefs this zero search volume keyword brought me 152 visitors in the last three months I have thousands of these keywords on my site stacking up the traffic contribution into a massive Snowball the thing is I'm not even a master at the server search volume technique and it's already doing wonders for me let's look at what happens when you really double down on it my buddy Steve Toth who also happens to be a speaker at my upcoming Chiang Mai SEO conference used to work for freshbooks if you came up with a zero search volume keyword strategy where you dig into all the people also ask questions for topics freshbook cares about then start writing the relevant ones despite their search volume all in all he wrote 650 of these people also asked articles and posted them in the hub directory of the site how much traffic does this directory get how about 1.2 million per month are you serious yeah so why does this work first off the SEO tools that estimate search volume [ __ ] up and I'm definitely not just crapping on ahrefs here they all [ __ ] up and it's completely understandable 15 of the 8 billion Google searches every day are brand new it's impossible to assign accurate search volumes on all of them in October 2019 Google released the Bert algorithm update which helped them understand all these super weird new requests that we've been typing into the search bar for example where before you type can you get medicine for someone Pharmacy Google was like um I don't know what you're talking about buddy here's an article on how to fill a prescription now they're like ah you want to know if you can pick up meds for a friend I got you so what we have here's the following situation the tools report incorrect search volume and all the SEO Bros skip these keywords because the tool says there's no search volume so it sucks and because of that the keywords have no competition they're easy AF but at the same time the Google algorithm knows how to divert traffic into this keyword so these SEO Bros are missing out big time here's my zero search volume strategies that you can copy a great source of zero search volume keywords is answer the public type in your main topic and then export out this huge list of keywords with low competition next as you know before the people also ask section as a gold mine you can click around manually to extract out these topics like a caveman or you can use the free tool SEO minion to download them to a sheet in a single click next Reddit is awesome for zero search volume keywords first find the subreddit of the topic you want to go after for example the ethereum subreddit now go to the Google search bar and type site colon the URL of your subreddit then in quotes type how do I this is going to bring up 4 000 low competition topics to cover next ask chatgpt for help yo chat GPT give me 10 low search volume keywords around Bitcoin Bitcoin lightning Network Bitcoin side chains Bitcoin multi-signature and a bunch of other stuff I have no idea what they're talking about and by double checking with atres over half of them have zero search volume now you need to get started writing these bad boys which brings me to my next unbeatable zero backlink SEO strategy and that's crafting perfectly optimized articles that are so good the Google algorithm has no choice but to agree that your content deserves to be number one by the way this is the same strategy I used to get number one for the keyword learn affiliate marketing which is pretty damn lucrative considering I have a course on affiliate marketing the thing is it's much easier than you think to feed the algorithm what it wants to see what you need to understand is that Google's algorithm is an algorithm thanks Captain Obvious if you write an article on the benefits of Goji berries always remember that Google has never eaten a goji berry it's never researched them it literally has no idea what the hell they are but it does know how to figure out if your goji berry article is good by comparing it to the existing articles at the top of Google does your article have all the algorithmic ranking signals in place that make it not just comparable but better than the other articles on page one here are those signals step one to producing perfectly optimized content is the research phase when I wrote my article on learn affiliate marketing the first thing I did was search the keyword open up the article in the first position see this chrome plugin up here that's the free detailed plugin open it up and look at the heading tab this is how the top article is structured it's got an H1 title then below that they have the first H2 what is affiliate marketing then we have a second H2 why should you do affiliate marketing and even that is broken down into the h3's low cost and low risk and easy to scale this is their article outline and if this got them to number one on Google then it must be good also go over to the overview Tab and find the word count at 2009 under words that must be the optimal word count to answer the search query learn affiliate marketing now here's where you start to make your content better than the number one article open up the article in the second position on Google take a look at its heading section and then you'll see some new outline suggestions this Wiki article breaks things down into steps and recommends that you take courses from marketers and learn affiliate marketing through experience these are great suggestions so what you're going to do is take what you learned from the outlines of the one two and three articles and combine them into a master outline that is a superset of them all here's what I mean my outline indeed has a section on what is affiliate marketing just like the number one article did but I also have a pros and cons section different types of affiliate marketing and inspired by the number two article I also teach it in steps so now that you have the sections of each article what do you actually write in each one the first paragraph is your introduction paragraph which is important to get right for a variety of reasons first your intro needs to hook your reader you know that you and everyone else has internet add these days to get people to read you need to grab their attention at the same time introduction content should convey that you know what you're you're talking about and demonstrate your expertise in a topic remember expertise authoritativeness and trust and here's a big one avoid fluff if someone searches for best massage chair don't start off boring them explaining what Michelle's chairs are they already know what they are they want to know which one is the best so get to the point in the description below I've left a link to a video that gives you a full Playbook on how to write introduction paragraphs so make sure to watch it after you finish here now that your introduction paragraph is done it's time to start working on the body content if you want

example of a low quality website they blame failing to cite sources as one of the reasons next you want to spice things up and make Google's NLP or natural language processing algorithms happy according to IBM and I'm paraphrasing here NLP refers to the branch of computer science and AI that gives computers the ability to understand text in the same way humans can so basically it's Google's way of translating your content into something that it can understand the thing is for a computer reading human content is a really [ __ ] difficult problem so what you want to do is format your text in such a way that you pitch Google a softball that they can hit an NLP home run with you want to make it easy for Google the thing is you don't even need to know what NLP is if you have a tool like
