He's not doing well at all as a computer repair business, all this links he posts are just spam links to 'big-up' his supposed SEO skills. Here's the exact text of the PM he sent me earlier:

I spend more than 1 hour to wrote my experiences and only doing this once every 6 months so why in earth shall i spam? i remember you left same reply when i post my last thread 6 month ago. what are you trying to do? whats the problem? I do SEO For living and one of my web site has over 2000 back link from respected high ranks sites! please any unrelated, meaningless. replies by private mesage!!!
What is spam anyway do you really know??

Why do SEO if your core business of computer repair is doing so well? Why does a supposed legitimate repair business need so many domain names? Why time how often you post updates as to how well your computer repair business is doing?

For what it's worth, SEO is defined by the search providers, not by the jokers who think they can fake legitimate search results with their 'SEO skills'.

If anyone doubts, do a search for "computer repairs Chesterfield" or similar and you'll see that this guy's SEO success is not as great as he claims, despite the obvious effort he's put into it.

I'm calling SPAMMER on this one.

Thanks for sharing this. I caught what you were saying. Don't ever let anyone discourage you from sharing with others. You have helped me and it's evident you have helped others. Some people are more than likely jealous of you and will try to discourage you. I appreciate what you shared and will take to heart what you said. Keep up the great work and PLEASE CONTINUE TO SHARE!

The OP - the £5k you spent on advertising - what type of advertising and was it worth it?

How you know how well he is or isn't doing?

The PM he sent you, apart from being a private message, is pretty much what he is saying in public anyway.

Why not do SEO if he is good at it?

Why not have lots of domain names if having carefully chosen names gets you high up in google for the keywords they contain? It's a common enough and well proven method to rate highly for a number of phrases - something that can be difficult for a single site to do.

SEO can be manipulated fairly easily. Google might define how their algorithm works but they let you know roughly what it is looking for and you can make sure your pages meet its demands. Building backlinks using the methods he describes works very well as plenty of people know.

I just did a search for computer repairs chesterfield and his site are number 1 and 2 in google, also for laptop repair chesterfield. He's also number one for sheffield. So what he is doing is working as far as those search terms are concerned.

As a member of this forum he can link to his sites using signatures etc anyway, just like most of us do, and benefit from TN's link juice. So why would he bother to use this specific thread to spam?

I don't know how well he's doing either but it seems to me he's made a lot of effort to get rated in google by doing all the well-known methods. I'm impressed by the efforts made and it appears to be working for him.

My own confusion is that shared by others in respect to the idea of charging high whilst on some of the sites it states the firm will beat any price from any competitor. I've no real problem with this marketing hook, if it produces the goods (other than concerns about downwards price pressure on the market in general), but it doesn't tally with the statement made earlier. Still no big deal.

Anyway - sounds like the OP is doing well. Personally, I'm jealous

 

[MobileTechie]

To the OP: - so did you build all those sites and all those pages yourself or have other people do it? It seems like one heck of a lot of work.

I dont think i should take you seriusly! My SEO Skills is good enough but i make sure google legaly accept my optimization not you!!! do you think you are clever than administrators of this site that you can identfy spams but they can not??

Any ways here is your lesson by wikipedia:


Main article: Spam in blogs

Blog spam, or "blam" for short, is spamming on weblogs. In 2009, this type of spam took advantage of the open nature of comments in the blogging software Movable Type by repeatedly placing comments to various blog posts that provided nothing more than a link to the spammer's commercial web site.

Similar attacks are often performed against wikis and guestbooks, both of which accept user contributions.I DONT DO BLACK SEO!!! goone now spam your self...!

To the OP: - so did you build all those sites and all those pages yourself or have other people do it? It seems like one heck of a lot of work.

I did it but it took me long time. every week night i spent 2-3 hours, every weekend some times 10-12 hours building site and seo. it was easy before my business get busy but since i have not much time left to do anymore site also i thing i have enough sites that repesent my business, now i am hapy to stick 14 websites. and off page seo i hired overseas company and pay them small amount of money anually to keep some of my sites high ranked by doing manual link building.

He is on the money for creating all the specialized websites for SEO but the PR for those sites listed on here lacks. PR is not everything but gives you an idea of the quality of backlinks and what google thinks of you.

Maybe his other sites are higher. I just thought they would be higher with all the SEO he said he put into them.

How did you save all that money and live? I am guessing you don't have a family yet.

Anyway, congrats on the success.

 

[Martyn]

I think your sites are excellent to look at. You have quite a few spelling mistakes that, for me, just take the edge off them. It would be worth someone running through them all. Well done though.

Hi, I need to correct you that PR is not related to back link only!

back link is one of many importand factor but if you research about it you will find out that PR is more related to quality and uniqness of the web site content wich is imposiable to do so when you try rank up computer repair websites with non same or alternative word to computer or laptop repair in order to create uniq content and even if you do you get no first page result againts you competitors! as an example my site has PR2 but i am on the top of the PR6 site with very similar content.

and yes i am single but it is not only that, while other enjoying the litle money they made from computer repairs i was saving every cent by not going out or buying my self anyting. it would be right to say i was feeding on bred to echive this but now time to enjoy

You left me nothing else to say thank you very much! Some of my sites dedicated to my shop and cheap but i am only taking competitor as a most professional companies bigger than me and their prices a lot higher

My other issue is that many of your posts are contradictory. Some threads you say your busy, others your slow. Sometimes you say to charge or do this, then in another you say not to. It's hard to follow advice when there isn't any consistency.

Again, don't take this personal because that isn't my intention. I just think that most of the negative reactions you receive are because of the superior attitude you portray. And yes, you appear to be a very intelligent business man, there is also much for you to learn. So feel free to offer your advice and we value it, but don't think that someone else can't do better. Or don't think that you can't learn much from the techs on this site.

So, if you toned back your attitude and cockiness, opened yourself up to the possibility you can learn form techs here, and kept your posts consistent; then you would be much better received.
Hope that helped clear some thins up.

Thanks for the advice but i dont mean to throw attitude.

Also i must correct you when i say business no good in august i am still making very good money but it is slover compare of month before. but it is not your fault that you didnt understand. it must be my english.

Also as i gain more experience it is normal that i make adjustmens in order to advice better. since iv made lot of money by advertising, the level i upgrade my business do not require more advertising and i just wanted to share this with all of you.

Last thing regarding to your advice wich you didnt need to if you read bottom of my thread wich says;

You must do every good idea what was written on this site. i am not going in to details just search the site an you will find them all!!

Thanks again.

My concern with creating so many websites for my business is the same as my concern of lot of ads in the yellowpages. This might just be me or my perception, but when I'm thumbing through the yellowpages for a local service, I tend to avoid the ones that "appear" to be big companies. I say they "appear" to be big companies because they have so many different ads that it looks like they have a huge marketing team and budget. This is where my bias comes in. I tend to see "big companies" as low quality, cookie cutter companies where the customer just equals a dollar sign.

It's like if I walked into a walmart and bought something. No one there knows me, probably doesn't even care what my feelings are toward their company, or cares if I'm happy or not. But when I go to a small local store, in town, it's very personable and friendly, and they will go out of their way to help me and make my experience enjoyable.

No offense to your marketing strategy, and it appears to be working well for you, but I really to tend to avoid big companies for service. I know your not a big company, but you have a big company image which would deter me away if I didn't already know about you.

One other thing that might be irrelevant is that when I see a company advertise with several different ads or websites, each promoting a different images, I sort of feel like the company is trying to trick me. There have been a lot of times I've been looking for something online and didn't like the prices or product that a company was offering. So I go further down Google and pick another site, then read it only to find out it is the same company as the other one I looked at.

Again, this just might be my perception. But because I feel this way, it guides me in the way that I promote my company. I put a lot of effort into giving the customer the small, local, friendly experience.

I'm just trying to offer another opinion of how people might perceive advertising like this. Keep in mind that I'm usually pretty critical of advertising and marketing, just because most of the time they are filled with lies, misdirection, and trickery. I seriously put every effort into making every ad I put out, as honest as possible. I want my ads to be taken literally with no hidden details.

To those who think this guy's sites and supposed successful business model are great, have you really looked at what he claims? There is too much that doesn't ring true or is contradictory between the 14 websites serving the small home-based business...

There's too much to go into every detail on all, but let's start here:

"Rated Five Stars by Yahoo! Local"
Look upChesterfield Computer Support on yahoo Local and you'l see he has no feedback - zero stars! Then we have "5* BY ABOUT.COM USERS" - really? About.com has no mention of his business and from what I can see has no user feedback system. It gets better with "Five Star technicians" WTF? Five Star Technicians are a USA based Electrical Contracting company - He's just nicked their logo and made it look like a serious business credential! The only feedback I can find for Chesterfield PC Services are a few dating back last years that appear all to have been written by Mr Bulent himself, he hasn't even had the sense to use made-up names for most of them!

Here we have another Technibble member making false claim to be a Microsoft Certified Partner. A search of the Microsoft partner site finds no mention of Mr Bulent or any of his businesses.

If Chesterfield PC Services/CPC Services is so successful why has he chosen a different trading name of 'A & B Computer Services' for his 'Computer Repair Alfreton site? Incidentally, the business address he gives for this new expansion is listed as being the trading premises for these guys.

It's sad to see that Bryce has heaped praise on this guy based upon the extravagant and contradictory claims the OP makes despite the glaringly obvious discrepancies, but I guess that's why Technibble continues its slide downhill and is increasingly becoming a safe-haven for those who steal business from legitimate techs by making false representation of their credentials. What's happened to honesty & integrity in this business, it should be foremost for anyone who calls themselves 'professional' no matter the business or skill discipline.

Most of 'dominuexus's posts on Technibble have been self-congratulatory puff for his SEO skills, the very few he's made on the technical threads read like those made by am inexperienced noob who's trying to blag his way in this business, but his bad attitude always come to the fore even when faced with 'soft' questions. If this guy demonstrates the same attitude with his customers as he does with those on here who tried to help him out when he was struggling to secure any business, it's a wonder he gets any custom.

4-look carefully and you will find my feedbacks out there and did you know if you had only 1 positive feedback that makes you 5 star till you get more negative ones? thats why i have every right to display that!! furthermore did you know i saw this idea from a technician who wrote on this forum as a advice? did you know atleast 3 tech. i know and member of this forum uses same logo?? is it illegal? againts the law? do you own the trade mark? I mean whats your problem man??? Am i spamming again?

5- I belived i can help others more by sharing business site more than technical. whats wrong been interesting how to rise business rather than trying to help with technical issues?? i always say lets get some business first and deal with the technical difficulities of it after and than there will be to many to help him here since we all technicians!!

6- Technibble going down?? Man i dont know you but i owe half of my succes from the threats i read in this site and after long research reason i choosed Technibble becouse there was no alternative exist for me.

7- When you send me private mesage please watch your mouth or i will report you to Technibble administrator!!

8- you say the business address he gives for this new expansion is listed as being the trading premises for these guys.? you realy are a joke that place is the premises oppisite my shop and again if you want you can contact them first thing in the morning and find out your self!!. also since my shop right oppisite to their business, they will confirm that i have nice looking business just started 2 weeks ago. i even said goodmorning to him last friday ask him )))

Why you so upset about it? i just saw your negative comments on my other threats too.. Why you doing this? Business no good? or is it some personal problems? come on share with us.

Thanks for your opininon mate but you dont really think i promote all this websites on expensive places like yellow pages / yellowpages.com?

I was only promoting 2 of 14 websites and they are one for my home base business and other just starting for my Shop.

I agree with you it is not only importand also essential to give impression that you are local tech of the town and thats what exactly i am trying to do it since i start doing this job also thats one of the reason i have that many websites.

Last thing that i like to say regarding you say it might be irrelevant is that when I see a company advertise with several different ads or websites. do you really do that much research when your Home or company computer broken and need a technician? and the true is since only few people do that and you can tell easly it is not a easygoing type customer he or she is, i wouldnt want customer like that anyway.

Thanks for sharing your opinion and personaly, even that it is not strong enough reason for me to change my way of marketing, i have to admit that you have a point here

 

[dominexsus]

Congrats on the success of your business; nice to see a very successful startup. Yes, it looks like it took some $$$ on initial advertising, but you can see it is really taking off. Thank you for giving us the update. Kudos!

Thank you very much mate. yes it took some $$$ at the begining till now but since i am going true new experiences i figured out that i dont need to advertise so heavy anymore but it is realy essential at the begining in order to speed up things and earn a lot while person trying to establish new computer repair business.

After this stage i am planing to promote 2 websites out of 14 and only planing to pay 2x yellow pages, 2x yell.com, 2x regular link building for these 2 sites. one website for my homebase busines and the other one for the prmises.

Other sites stands on non compition areas but i still wanted to dominate every area i can so without SEO promoting they already no1 position with search engines.
