SEO Rockstars 2026: Day 3 - Chris Walker
Watch on YouTube
[00:04] All right. So, I'm just going to go
[00:05] through it as quickly as I can because
[00:07] that's kind of how I talk. I told I talk
[00:08] too fast, but I'll do my best. Uh, first
[00:10] place SEO, what actually worked and how
[00:12] I beat dozens of top SEOs. But really,
[00:14] it's about how to win by thinking
[00:16] differently. Now, real quick, I got two
[00:18] introductions, so I'm going to skip
[00:19] through this fast. My name is Chris M.
[00:20] Walker. And the reason that I use the M
[00:22] in my middle name is because there's a
[00:23] legendary SEO that I cannot out compete
[00:25] for my name. That is 90s one hit wonder
[00:28] Chris Walker. So, no matter what I do,
[00:30] now I tell that joke every time I give
[00:32] this presentation, but I actually
[00:33] decided to message this guy and tell him
[00:35] that I use his name every time and he
[00:37] thought it was hilarious. So, actual
[00:39] Chris Walker is very, very cool. This is
[00:41] me. This is what I've done. Who cares?
[00:43] Uh, thinking differently. The tactics
[00:45] are are great and I have fun with some
[00:47] of the ones I'm going to share. That's
[00:48] really not the main point that I want to
[00:50] make for you today. There are two things
[00:51] that I want you to take away from this
[00:53] presentation. The first and the most
[00:55] important one is to think differently
[00:57] and be creative. I know that's
[00:58] technically two things, but it's like
[00:59] one thing. Like, I'm a pretty good SEO,
[01:02] but I'm not elite like a lot of the
[01:04] people in this room or a lot of the
[01:05] people that were competing in this
[01:06] competition that I'm going to talk about
[01:08] today. But what I am good at is figuring
[01:10] out what needs to be done to get where
[01:11] you need to go. I also don't like to not
[01:14] get my way. So, when I decided to enter
[01:17] this contest, I knew I'd have to do
[01:19] things differently, but we we're going
[01:21] to get to that real quick. Uh competing.
[01:23] I'm also not a very competitive person.
[01:25] I prefer to measure myself against
[01:27] myself rather than against other people,
[01:28] which is what you have to do when you
[01:29] compete. But I do believe if you're
[01:31] going to compete, you should do whatever
[01:33] it takes to win. So when I do compete at
[01:36] something, I go all out to win. Just ask
[01:39] this guy.
[01:41] Competing. At least somebody knew who
[01:43] that was. So the second thing I want you
[01:45] to take away from this is if you're
[01:47] going to compete and whatever you're
[01:48] doing in business or in life is somewhat
[01:49] of a competition, win. So, what we're
[01:53] going to talk about today is a contest
[01:54] that I entered back in October. It ran
[01:56] through November. It was in Adise SEO,
[01:58] which is Jackie Child's community, if
[02:00] you know who that is. Uh, this is kind
[02:02] of the competition. This these were the
[02:03] rules. I'll go through it real quick so
[02:04] you understand. But they would choose a
[02:07] target keyword and it was a nonsense
[02:08] keyword that was a word that didn't
[02:10] exist, which made me think about you uh
[02:12] when you were talking about it earlier.
[02:14] And the timeline was from October 15th
[02:16] of last year till December 15th of last
[02:19] year. It had to be a new domain. Like it
[02:21] couldn't be an expired domain or site or
[02:23] anything like that. Brand new, fresh
[02:25] domain, newly registered. They chose the
[02:27] keyword and the t the madeup keyword
[02:29] that they chose was flamico. At least
[02:32] that's how I think it's pronounced. It's
[02:33] not a real word. So, and the site that I
[02:35] used was flamico.io.
[02:38] Uh because everybody gobbled up the good
[02:40] tldds before I even got to it. And this
[02:42] is the site. As you can see, it is
[02:44] completely gibberish one-page website.
[02:47] Well, structured onepage website with
[02:48] the questions and stuff. Somebody
[02:50] actually pointed that out to me. But
[02:51] that's it. That's all I made on the
[02:53] site. So, let's talk about what I did
[02:55] differently. Remember I said I want you
[02:56] to remember to think differently. That's
[02:58] the real lesson that I want you to take
[02:59] away from this. The site simple onepage
[03:02] website, one image, one video. I created
[03:04] the content in Claude. It was completely
[03:06] made up gibberish. Uh, fun story about
[03:08] that. I have a Claude project that is
[03:10] designed to write content in my voice.
[03:12] So it kind of sounds like me. And I
[03:14] said, "I need you to make up a gibberish
[03:15] website for a brand new term lumberico."
[03:17] And Claude came back and was like,
[03:20] "Chris Walker would never make up that
[03:21] that kind of content. It's bullshit."
[03:24] Was like, and I was like, "I'm Chris
[03:26] Walker and I'm telling you to do it."
[03:27] He's like, "No, I'm sorry. I can't." So
[03:29] I had to go to a regular cloud chat to
[03:31] get it to make that up.
[03:34] And then I did some uh basic on page
[03:36] SEO, just keywording H1, 1% keyword
[03:39] density, old school [ __ ] Optimize. I
[03:41] was gonna say is it all right if I swear
[03:42] but then I remember Mike went for me
[03:44] then I did optimize the image and video
[03:46] for the term. So my theory was since
[03:49] this is a brand new keyword that Google
[03:50] doesn't understand yet or what it's
[03:52] about or who who it should show it for
[03:54] or show show it for my mission was to
[03:56] build the association with that term to
[03:58] my site as click quickly and as bluntly
[04:01] as possible. So that gave me a chance to
[04:03] think differently and be far more
[04:05] aggressive than I would be normally. So,
[04:08] for example, I did something really
[04:09] really elegant with the metatitle and
[04:11] metad description and I filled it with
[04:14] nothing but the keyword over and over
[04:15] and over again.
[04:17] It's that it's funny. That's like one
[04:19] one reason I did it is because it's
[04:20] funny. The other one is again I was
[04:21] trying to force Google to understand
[04:23] that this [ __ ] keyword was related
[04:25] to my site as opposed to all the other
[04:27] people. So, I was trying to like hit it
[04:28] with a hammer rather than whatever
[04:31] people that don't do things aggressively
[04:32] use. And so by hammering it with keyword
[04:35] spam, I was able to overcompensate and
[04:37] build that association between that
[04:39] keyword and my site while everyone else
[04:41] screwed around links and GMBBS and a
[04:43] bunch of other necess unnecessary stuff
[04:45] that you would do under normal
[04:46] circumstances. So like I said, thinking
[04:49] differently. I said I'm not the most
[04:51] skilled SEO in this competition. There
[04:52] was Jackie Child. There was Holly
[04:54] Starks. A bunch of other people whose
[04:55] names you would know. I can't think of
[04:57] them at the moment, but you get the
[04:58] point. They're they're much better at
[04:59] SEO than I am. So I had to think about
[05:01] what advantages I have over others so I
[05:04] could get the W as the kids probably no
[05:06] longer say. So I thought of three
[05:08] advantages that I have. The first one is
[05:10] I have a big Facebook following.
[05:14] I have a medium-sized YouTube channel.
[05:16] Nothing too special. And then I have
[05:18] legit which I leveraged as well and
[05:19] we'll talk about that. So the first
[05:21] thing I did was Facebook. Went to
[05:24] Facebook and I said do me this favor. Go
[05:26] and Google this term. Look for my site
[05:28] and no other site. read the entire page
[05:31] and then come back here and comment once
[05:33] you're done. That's it. So, what I was
[05:35] doing was using referral traffic. I was
[05:38] waiting for Mike's head to pop up then
[05:40] uh and having them go from Facebook to
[05:43] Google to my site back to Facebook. So,
[05:45] it's kind of following that entire
[05:46] journey of real real people searching
[05:49] for it. So, I did that. The next thing I
[05:51] did was I did a live stream uh where I
[05:55] talked about the site and I sent an
[05:56] email to the live stream to people told
[05:59] them to come to the live stream and on
[06:00] the live stream I told them to go to the
[06:02] site. So that sent them from email to
[06:05] YouTube to my site and back. So again
[06:08] that's taking them on an entire journey
[06:10] and showing that actual human beings are
[06:12] interested in this site.
[06:14] I also have the and some of you probably
[06:16] hate this [ __ ] but I have the ability
[06:18] to send an a message to everybody's
[06:20] inbox on legit. So,
[06:24] I sent about 300,000 of these to the
[06:28] YouTube video. So, it went from legit to
[06:29] the YouTube video to my site and back.
[06:32] So, again, I leveraged assets that I had
[06:34] that other people don't. Uh, I sent an
[06:37] email to about a quarter of our list,
[06:38] which is about 200,000
[06:41] and only got about 300 clicks, but still
[06:44] email to the site and back. Uh, we have
[06:48] a Slack group with about I don't know
[06:50] 300 so people again I asked them to go
[06:52] Google the site, read the whole thing
[06:54] and then come back. So it's from Slack
[06:56] to my site and back. So, I'm using human
[06:59] beings to drive traffic to my site and
[07:01] show Google that people actually give a
[07:02] [ __ ] about the site as opposed to all
[07:04] the other sites in the competition. So,
[07:06] theory, referral traffic gets rankings
[07:08] far faster than links. And normally,
[07:11] it's temporary, but this was only a
[07:13] two-month window. So, I could build this
[07:15] up quickly and get to number one faster
[07:16] and hopefully establish that I'm the
[07:18] site that people care about for this and
[07:20] never give up that number one spot. So,
[07:22] that was my theory on referral traffic
[07:24] by jumping out to a quick. Another
[07:26] theory I had was demoralizing everybody
[07:28] else from the competition. So by jumping
[07:31] jumping out to number one really quick,
[07:33] I wanted everyone to lose interest for
[07:35] the rest of the contest and stop trying
[07:37] [ __ ] So that way I'm number one and
[07:39] they just give up. That seemed to work.
[07:41] So referral traffic from actual human
[07:43] beings. Remember those? Uh Facebook X,
[07:46] LinkedIn, YouTube, email legit. We also
[07:48] did push and browser notifications, but
[07:50] I didn't have a way to really show
[07:51] those.
[07:54] that worked well and I wanted more, but
[07:56] I didn't know how to do any of that
[07:57] myself because like I said, I'm not that
[07:59] great of an SEO. Most of the stuff you
[08:01] guys talked about, I don't know how to
[08:02] do any of that [ __ ] So, what I did was
[08:04] I hired somebody else to do it for me.
[08:06] And I got this guy, his username is
[08:08] Ideal Mike. I won't mention what site
[08:10] it's on so Mike doesn't come up here and
[08:11] yell at me for pitching, but
[08:15] I had him make a post on Reddit that
[08:17] would build would send over to the site
[08:18] and some referral traffic. He has this
[08:20] uh CT a couple of CTR CTR services that
[08:24] I use. He has a uh Is it still on?
[08:28] Okay, just not get so close. Okay. Uh he
[08:31] has a couple of social media things
[08:32] where he'll send like to a big Facebook
[08:34] group again driving people from Facebook
[08:36] to the site and back and he has a couple
[08:38] other services like that. So I used him
[08:40] to drive a bunch more referral traffic
[08:42] and CTR traffic to the site to keep it
[08:44] there. But I also did some clever [ __ ]
[08:46] I did some search box optimization which
[08:48] is where if you search something and it
[08:49] like suggests what you should click in
[08:50] the search box. What I did was I
[08:52] optimized it for when somebody tried to
[08:55] search that term they would come over
[08:56] and then see mine. So what I did I
[08:59] leveraged my competitors to give me CTR
[09:02] because I know that we're a bunch of
[09:03] arrogant [ __ ] who are going to
[09:04] go search our own rankings. So when they
[09:06] search their own rankings they would see
[09:07] mine and be like what is he up to and
[09:09] click that and become my own my
[09:11] competition became my own CTR. So I le
[09:13] so I thought differently and I leveraged
[09:15] my competitors to help me win. So
[09:18] referral traffic that worked really
[09:20] well, but I wasn't done yet. By far the
[09:22] biggest difference maker I did was
[09:23] chrome signal manipulation. When when I
[09:26] say I did it, I mean I got somebody else
[09:28] to do it. But this is a service and I
[09:30] don't 100% know how it works, but I know
[09:32] that it involves having people having
[09:34] some kind of bot go to Chrome and then
[09:36] go to social media and then send it out.
[09:38] This worked really well. This jumped me
[09:40] from like page three to number one. and
[09:41] I'm convinced that this is what got me
[09:43] to number one better than anything else
[09:44] and is the main reason I want if I had
[09:46] to point to one thing it would be that.
[09:48] So referral traffic in my opinion is the
[09:51] most powerful SEO tactic right now but
[09:53] that's not all I did.
[09:56] Backlinks uh referral traffic like I
[09:59] said the biggest thing but we also had
[10:01] to do some backlinks. Uh most other
[10:03] people in the competition focused on
[10:04] backlinks like their entire strategy. It
[10:07] wasn't a major part of my strategy, but
[10:09] I did do some backlinking and some of it
[10:11] was conventional and some of it was less
[10:13] so, which we'll get to in a minute. Uh,
[10:15] I bought like 20 niche edits. Uh, as far
[10:17] as the anchor text, conventional wisdom
[10:19] is to be cautious, use branded, generic,
[10:21] URL, all the stuff that we all think
[10:23] we're supposed to do. I went the other
[10:24] direction and did 20 of them with exact
[10:27] match anchor text because again, I'm
[10:29] trying to force that association between
[10:31] that Google and my site for that term.
[10:33] So continuing the theory of building
[10:35] that association, that's why I did
[10:37] nothing but exact matched anchors. Uh
[10:39] next, I wanted to force Google to again
[10:41] to assocate my site with that keyword.
[10:43] So I did some I don't even know what to
[10:44] call them, but like authority type
[10:47] things, uh parasites, whatever you want
[10:48] to call them, entity stuff. So some web
[10:50] 2.0, some social media profiles, all
[10:53] optimized or direct or exact matched
[10:55] anchors to the uh the main term. Uh, I
[10:57] did some Reddit guest posts, uh, which
[11:00] actually will generate a little bit of
[11:01] referral traffic on its own because this
[11:03] guy owns like a bunch of subreddits and
[11:05] he'll make a post and it'll drive some
[11:06] traffic over to your site. Uh, wiki
[11:08] pages, another wiki link, a link from
[11:11] GitHub, which unfortunately doesn't work
[11:12] anymore, but that was a really good one.
[11:15] Uh, some other guest post, social media
[11:17] post. So, basically, all I'm doing is
[11:19] trying to establish from these high
[11:20] trusted sites some links over to my site
[11:22] to again force that association between
[11:24] that term and my site. uh medium and so
[11:27] on. So, a variety of high authority,
[11:29] parasite, web 2.0, social, whatever the
[11:31] hell you want to call it, linking to
[11:33] naturally build trust, entity, and
[11:35] possibly some more referral traffic.
[11:36] There's one more type of link I did
[11:38] though, and these were web 3.0 NFT
[11:42] virtual world links. So, again, I have
[11:45] no clue how to do this. I'm probably
[11:46] even going to label them wrong in the
[11:48] slides that come up, come slides that
[11:49] come up, but thank you to Matt for uh
[11:51] taking care of those for me out of
[11:53] nowhere. Wasn't expecting that. What I
[11:55] will say, here's one of them. It's Lucha
[11:57] Libé guy. You can see he linked it over
[11:59] to my site there. I don't even know what
[12:02] this is, but it's some sort of page that
[12:04] he tells me is good. Uh,
[12:07] this one is a virtual world uh one, and
[12:09] you can kind of see that. You know
[12:10] what's funny is where I live is like
[12:12] right there. So, that's why he chose
[12:15] that location. Nobody come visit me. I
[12:17] don't like people. Um,
[12:20] and there's another one. Again, I don't
[12:21] know if this is NFT or whatever. go talk
[12:23] to Matt about this afterwards.
[12:24] Hopefully, he has some way for you to
[12:26] give him money for this. Now, uh this
[12:28] one is some sort of map thing. And
[12:30] again, linking to my site from the
[12:33] virtual I don't know what the hell this
[12:34] is, but a virtual world map. But what I
[12:37] will tell you is if the you're wondering
[12:39] if that worked before adding these, I
[12:42] dropped in and out of number one. After
[12:44] I added these, I got I was at number one
[12:46] and I never left again. So, you know,
[12:48] correlation, a causation, I don't know.
[12:50] But I never dropped it out at number one
[12:52] ever again, including to today uh after
[12:54] I built or I after I had Mel Matt build
[12:57] those links for me. So check check those
[12:59] out if you were here for his
[13:00] presentation two days ago. It was great.
[13:03] The competitors. So I said that I wasn't
[13:06] the only person in this competition that
[13:07] got creative because you know I want to
[13:09] give credit where credit's due. The
[13:10] first one is Luke Fanders whose partner
[13:12] is here today. He wasn't even in the
[13:14] competition. I messaged him about like
[13:16] what the [ __ ] are you doing? You aren't
[13:17] even like competing in this thing. He's
[13:18] like, I'm just doing it for the glory.
[13:22] And so what he did, he created a fake
[13:24] band called Lightning fastico. And he
[13:28] actually created a whole like a whole
[13:29] band and a whole band persona around it.
[13:32] And he created some YouTube videos that
[13:33] still ranked for it. Uh, and for a long
[13:36] time he was, it's pardon. He was like
[13:40] number we were SW he was like number two
[13:42] for a long time and I guess they got
[13:43] busy and like focused on other things.
[13:45] But I thought that was incredibly
[13:46] creative, a unique way to come at it,
[13:48] thinking differently, which again is
[13:50] kind of the point. The other competitor
[13:52] was Tyler Rogers. He's not here, but
[13:54] he's a member of the community. Colton's
[13:56] here. He knows who I'm talking about.
[13:58] And uh Tyler was the only person that
[14:00] really gave me any consistent
[14:02] competition throughout this. And the way
[14:03] he went about it was way more creative
[14:05] than I was. He actually created a whole
[14:08] person, like a whole persona of a guy
[14:11] named Tim Flabberico, who was the
[14:13] founder and CEO
[14:15] Yeah, exactly. Of some uh I don't know
[14:17] agency thing type thing. And like he
[14:21] created the whole thing like LinkedIn
[14:22] pages, profiles, press releases, all of
[14:25] it. And it worked for a long time until
[14:27] I got Matt's links. We were exchanging
[14:29] first place for a good long time. And
[14:32] then toward the end of the contest, he
[14:34] started getting even more creative and
[14:36] he killed Tim Bombber.
[14:41] So he actually did a press release
[14:47] Lober announces passing his founder Tim
[14:50] Lumber in a water polo accident
[14:57] and it actually caught on like people
[14:59] literally on Reddit were literally
[15:00] talking about this like this was some
[15:02] scam post that this is a fake site and
[15:04] somebody was like yeah this company
[15:06] kicks off with a vague mission the weak
[15:07] founder sells out and dies all this
[15:09] information I see what they did there
[15:11] somebody like this got that much
[15:12] attention And I so I was like challenge
[15:15] accepted. So what I did was to leverage
[15:19] that uh to neutralize the momentum he
[15:21] was building because this was starting
[15:22] to work. I made a memorial video on
[15:24] YouTube and Facebook
[15:27] where I literally went in and like said
[15:30] passes away before taking over from.io
[15:34] and linking out to my site again. And
[15:37] like it did pretty well. it got like uh
[15:39] where is it like 1,200 views and that
[15:41] neutralized that threat. So I took away
[15:44] the advantage away and you can see like
[15:46] even now that video ranks number one for
[15:49] that term like even above my site and I
[15:50] have all three of those by the way. It's
[15:52] not relevant but I just wanted to flex
[15:54] and so basically Tyler [ __ ] around and
[15:56] found out
[15:57] what happened what happens when you try
[15:59] to get creative with me. So the results
[16:03] were this is uh the Slack channel for
[16:05] the the group that was hosting it and
[16:06] this is on December 15th. He announces
[16:08] the winner. I handled it humbly by
[16:11] saying that the champ is here.
[16:15] Yeah. So that was that. And you can see
[16:17] I came in first, but I also came in
[16:18] ninth because you were allowed to have
[16:19] up to three sites. So I also came in
[16:21] ninth for a site that I didn't even
[16:22] really try on. And again, still at
[16:25] number one. This is from like two days
[16:26] ago. I have number one organic and I
[16:28] have all three of the images. So this
[16:31] work and like I said the lesson I don't
[16:34] want you to necessarily take away the
[16:35] strategies because a lot of that you
[16:36] wouldn't really be able to apply in most
[16:38] of what you're doing. What I want you to
[16:40] take away from this is it isn't
[16:41] necessarily what I did but more how I
[16:43] pushed myself to think differently. Uh
[16:46] referral traffic was an absolute game
[16:48] changer. It I never would have figured
[16:50] that out without looking at this
[16:51] differently. If I just handled this like
[16:53] I do any other client or any other site
[16:54] or any other thing that I do. It
[16:56] wouldn't have worked. Force the
[16:57] association. Again, I would never have
[16:59] been that aggressive with like a client
[17:00] site or an affiliate site or anything
[17:02] like that. So, if I played it the way I
[17:05] normally would, I probably wouldn't have
[17:06] won uh backs. If I'd been conservative
[17:09] with it with the anchor text or if I
[17:11] hadn't tried Matt's links on it because
[17:12] I would have been too afraid because
[17:13] it's a client site or whatever, I don't
[17:15] think this would have won because
[17:16] everybody else was doing the same [ __ ]
[17:18] Uh, you know, parasites, press releases,
[17:19] whatever. I did some different stuff and
[17:21] I think that's why I was able to beat
[17:23] them out. You know, it's hard to say for
[17:25] sure, but the evidence seems to point to
[17:27] that, right? So think differently, be
[17:30] creative. Most of these people stuck to
[17:32] bread and butter SEO, links, perfect on
[17:34] page, all the stuff that we all do that
[17:36] we think is right and usually is. That's
[17:38] great, but sometimes you have to think
[17:39] outside the box to get the W. So think
[17:42] about what advantages and assets you
[17:44] have and try different things. Don't
[17:46] listen to people whose only goal is to
[17:47] [ __ ] on any technique that they don't
[17:49] use or they don't like. I'm sure that
[17:50] everybody in this room just thought of
[17:52] somebody in particular when I said that.
[17:54] It's okay to think outside the box. And
[17:57] when you have competitors, like we all
[17:59] do in one way or another, it is okay to
[18:01] think big. Uh do whatever you have to do
[18:04] to succeed. Use all your assets, use all
[18:06] your resources, use all of your network.
[18:08] Like you said, use your network, use
[18:10] everything you have, and don't be afraid
[18:11] to try new stuff because if you're going
[18:12] to compete in SEO or in anything else,
[18:15] you should do whatever it takes to win.
[18:18] So that's it. Thank you.
[18:24] And I put together a guide with like all
[18:26] the steps and all the stuff that I use
[18:28] if you want to access that. Hopefully
[18:29] that doesn't get me banned for pitching,
[18:32] but
[18:34] I know I'm just at least I thought it
[18:36] was.
[18:38] And then uh everybody got that? Okay.
[18:40] Okay.
[18:42] There's that'll actually legit. It'll
[18:44] take you there and like it's just a step
[18:46] by-step kind of thing. And then if you
[18:47] want to connect with me, you can do that
[18:48] there. So, I think I know almost
[18:50] everybody in this room already, but
[18:53] and that's it. If there's any questions
[18:56] back,
[19:03] thank you.
[19:06] Nope. No
[19:07] questions. Anyone questions?
[19:18] Great presentation. funny as [ __ ] Thank
[19:19] you very much.
[19:21] Okay, all these people that were going
[19:22] up against you, were you guys talking
[19:24] and were you out doing it or were you
[19:26] just seeing what each other did by going
[19:29] online? Like were you in the same slack
[19:31] saying well I did this and I did that.
[19:33] So the question was was everybody in the
[19:35] competition doing able to communicate on
[19:37] what they were doing what they weren't
[19:39] we are all in the same slack group. A
[19:40] few people would say I did this and did
[19:42] that. But it was also there was a list.
[19:44] I don't I can't go back to it, but it
[19:46] showed who was in what place. So you
[19:48] kind of knew who was doing what, but
[19:49] nobody really said this is what I'm
[19:50] doing and then it worked. I did when I
[19:52] did a couple of like the clever things,
[19:53] but for the most part, you kind of
[19:55] figured it out. Nobody said this is what
[19:56] I did, you know? So you kind of had to
[19:58] like just like we have to do regularly,
[20:00] right?
[20:00] Did you win a prize?
[20:01] I did. I won $1,000 which I gave to
[20:05] and I won a year subscription to that
[20:07] community.
[20:08] Wow. Thank you.
[20:11] more way more than the question was how
[20:12] much did it cost with those purchases
[20:14] and it was way more than I so but again
[20:17] it was this honestly this right here is
[20:19] the value I really got just being able
[20:21] to talk about it
[20:41] So, the Chrome referral traffic you
[20:43] mentioned, I think there was like a
[20:45] Fiverr
[20:46] supplier you used or something in the
[20:48] screenshot, but was that was that legit?
[20:51] I don't know. I can't I can't see back
[20:52] here. So, so, so with with that one, can
[20:56] you explain that a little bit of what
[20:56] the difference is with the other
[20:58] referral traffic and that one?
[20:59] I'm gonna be Oh, the question was, what
[21:00] was the Chrome signal manipulation
[21:02] service? I'm going to be completely
[21:03] transparent. I don't 100% understand how
[21:05] it works, but what I do know is that he
[21:07] somehow sends people into like a Google
[21:09] Chrome browser which sends the signal
[21:11] and he sends people from there to social
[21:13] media over to the site. So it has it
[21:16] being in Chrome I think is the key to
[21:17] being that could be wrong. I don't know
[21:19] but that's my understanding.
[21:24] else,
[21:33] man. I love it. All these creative ways
[21:35] of of getting stuff done. Like you say,
[21:38] don't take it literally, but use that to
[21:40] inspire yourself to think outside of the
[21:42] box. And you thought way outside of the
[21:45] box.
[21:46] out of some of those the the gigs that
[21:49] you use on that platform which isn't
[21:51] Fiverr, would you use any of those for a
[21:56] a client let's say plumbing or know just
[21:59] regular local businesses or any
[22:01] business?
[22:01] Yeah. So the question was do I use any
[22:03] of the services that I showed in this on
[22:05] regular ones? And the answer is yes. A
[22:07] lot of those like web 2.0 social
[22:09] profiles they're like a standard part of
[22:10] like my my SOP. I have used the Chrome
[22:13] signal thing, but only when like I need
[22:16] like a really like I'm like stuck like
[22:18] page two or something. That will usually
[22:19] get me the rest of the way there. Uh the
[22:22] rest of those the traffic ones a little
[22:23] bit here and there. I don't have like I
[22:26] don't do enough sites to where it's
[22:27] really necessary most of the time, but
[22:29] there's nothing wrong with it. I have
[22:30] used it before.
[22:33] Yeah. Yeah. All that's linked in that
[22:35] thing that I uh in that last QR code.
[22:45] that
[22:52] that's why I let you.
[22:54] Oh, thank you whoever said that.
[22:59] Fiber guy said that.
[23:03] Is that all or
[23:12] on your SOP. I if I missed I just opened
[23:14] it up. I didn't read it. When you got
[23:16] the endorsement post from the the third
[23:18] party Reddit that he did on on that
[23:20] case, did let's assume it's called that
[23:22] a tier one backlink and the way we
[23:24] talked about it back to flico.io,
[23:27] did you spend any time tier twoing
[23:28] building links to what he posted on a
[23:30] Reddit that with a long post URL or
[23:31] anything like that?
[23:32] So the question was, did I do any beyond
[23:34] tier one or tier two? I was set up. But
[23:36] the answer is no because I figured there
[23:38] wasn't enough time for it to like with
[23:40] the two-month window for it to like pass
[23:41] that trust on. So no, I didn't.
[23:43] Everything was directly to the site,
[23:44] which is again not something I would
[23:46] normally do, but this a short time
[23:48] window, so I had to be more aggressive.
[23:54] Curiosity question. You kept like
[23:56] releasing videos. Oh, sorry. You kept
[23:59] like releasing videos like it's going to
[24:00] premiere, but they never premiered.
[24:04] I I don't I don't
[24:04] No. Like so and when you go search bar
[24:07] and everything and you scroll down, you
[24:08] have a video waiting to premiere and it
[24:10] would like say in 24 hours and it reset
[24:13] in 24 hours. Like what the hell is he
[24:14] doing?
[24:15] I don't know what you're talking about.
[24:16] I'm sorry. The question was uh you had a
[24:19] bunch of videos to like waiting to
[24:21] premiere on YouTube and then they never
[24:22] premiered. I I didn't know that I did.
[24:29] Oh,
[24:31] it should have. Uh if you look on like
[24:32] my my YouTube on like ice cream. It
[24:35] might be there. If not, maybe I just,
[24:37] you know, I think, you know, I think
[24:37] what happened there was one day.
[24:39] Yeah, I think there was one day when I
[24:41] was gonna do one and then something came
[24:42] up and I couldn't do it.
[24:45] That's called poking, right? That's
[24:46] called Hey, that's called you. Hi. So,
[24:48] let Nester explain actually
[24:55] [ __ ] tired of talking already. But
[24:57] YouTube poking if you set up a stream,
[24:58] right? a live a live event
[25:01] and set up the thumbnail with the
[25:03] keyword and everything. If it's a type
[25:05] of keyword that's easy enough, the
[25:07] thumbnail will show in the SERs right on
[25:09] page one without you ever releasing the
[25:11] video. So you can schedule it out like a
[25:14] year away. Now, huh?
[25:17] Yeah, I remember that super old poking.
[25:19] It was crazy, bro. Especially when you
[25:21] used to remember you used to get the big
[25:22] old thumbnail on the whole top and [ __ ]
[25:24] used to be crazy. That [ __ ] still works
[25:26] here and there, but noncompetitive like
[25:28] that, right? Perfect [ __ ] play. And
[25:30] Chris, next time, right, you can
[25:32] actually schedule those out and keep
[25:34] Yeah.
[25:35] taking up multiple spots on page one.
[25:37] Yeah. It wouldn't have counted though.
[25:38] It was only the sites.
[25:40] Oh, okay.
[25:53] Simon are here.
[25:57] Okay.
[25:59] Did you do press releases? I didn't
[26:01] notice there.
[26:02] Uh, you could do them. I didn't do any.
[26:04] I figured that it just
[26:05] it doesn't push enough trust or
[26:06] authority or whatever, but you could. A
[26:08] couple few people did.
[26:09] It's too vanilla.
[26:10] Yeah. She said there's some online
[26:12] questions.
[26:16] Okay.
[26:17] question, how much did the other
[26:19] referral traffic rankings before the
[26:22] signals?
[26:23] Uh, the question was, how much did other
[26:25] referral traffic uh affect ranking
[26:27] before the Chrome signal? Before I did
[26:29] that, I was on like page two or three
[26:30] like it would flip flop around a lot
[26:32] because there was so many people doing
[26:33] things. Well, once I did that, I got to
[26:35] page one and I stayed there and I was on
[26:36] I was at number one most of the
[26:38] competition.
[26:39] And then the next question is from
[26:40] Peter. Have you tested
[26:43] web readings on different
[26:48] Uh, the question was, have I tried
[26:50] Matt's web free links on any other
[26:51] project? No other links. And not yet is
[26:54] the answer. So, we will try that soon
[26:58] as soon as he lists a service like I've
[27:00] been telling you.
[27:03] No, I He's going to because I've been
[27:05] yelling at him a lot.
[27:10] Okay, let's give one more hand. Awesome.
