Introduction to Link Emperor

Link Emperor is a link building tool that allows you to manage your SEO campaigns, create quality links andeven build t iered linking structures.

You get an allocated number of credits per month that are used to build links. You can spend your credits howyou wish on a huge range of link types.

Gett ing Started With Link Emperor

I’m going to f irst show you the back end of a test campaign very quickly.

On the main interf ace you will see:

All the URL’s it picked up

All the keywords targeted by those URL’s

The keyword search volume

Current Google rank

Page score

Page 3: Review and Tutorial of Link Emperor, an easy tool to build links

You can actually use this inf ormation to help improve your onsite optimisation to steal quick win rankingboosts.

But f irst, let me show you how to start your own campaign!

Creating a New Campaign

Say you want to promote a specif ic set of URL’s f or a niche. You need to set up a campaign and Link Emperormakes it really easy to do.

Just click on New and and f ill in the details such as campaign name, country, description, category and so on.I’m going to set one up about my post of how to start a blog and leave the rest of the options at def ault.

Page 4: Review and Tutorial of Link Emperor, an easy tool to build links

You can also give your clients access so they can monitor rankings etc with a designated username andpassword.

Af ter all that’s done, click Add Campaign.

As you can see our campaign is added on top and if you tick the box next to it, more options will come up thatyou are able to change.

The next step you should do is to add Google Analytics. You really should do this is because the tool f etchesthe Analytic’s data which will help you make keyword decisions.

To add your Google Analytics, click Account then the External Linked Accounts tab and add your account.

If you don’t have Google Analytics, Clicky works as well.

Now we have to add additional inf ormation. Click on the campaign and go to the Sites tab to add the domains& URL’s we want to build links to.

Page 5: Review and Tutorial of Link Emperor, an easy tool to build links

Enter a name f or the site ref erence and the complete domain URL including http:// Make sure to select theAnalytics ID you wish to connect to.

As f or target URLS, you can use Google Analytics to grab them f or you or uncheck the box to add specif icURLs. I’m going to untick the box and click Add site.

Now let’s add our targets.

1. Enter URL

2. Enter dollar value

3. Add keywords

Page 6: Review and Tutorial of Link Emperor, an easy tool to build links

Let me explain quickly what dollar value is.

Dollar value is a measurement f or campaign bids. If your campaign has a $1 value per visit and a separatecampaign has a $2 value, then the $2 value campaign will have two times as many links built to it.

I’m going to leave mine blank since I don’t need to worry about it f or the test campaign. Then enter thekeywords and if you want the system to include additional keywords the URL ranks f or on the internet, checkthe box and click Add.

This will help increase your rank f or keywords that need a small boost.

One more thing I’m going to do is go back to the Target tab and add my Youtube video tutorial URL.

Target Analysis

Now that you’ve entered all your target campaign inf ormation, let’s look at what some of the terms mean.

Click on one of the campaigns we created to see the list of keywords we added, the Google ranking f or thekeywords, search volume, visits per URL and on page score.

Page score can be anywhere f rom 0, 1 or 2.5.

The breakdown of scores goes like this:

0: the particular keyword is not f ound on the page

1: the keyword is f ound on the page

2.5: the keyword is f ound in the tit le

Page 7: Review and Tutorial of Link Emperor, an easy tool to build links

Not only does system tell you the score, it also helps you optimize it.

Click on SEO Trouble Spots tab where they have a list of suggestions and changes that you can do to increasethe score.

Very helpf ul!

If you want, make the recommended changes and and select reinspect selected On-page SEO f or it to updatethe page score.

Finding New Keywords

This is a great f eature that helps you f ind new keywords related to your campaign post.

1. Click New Report

2. Fill in the details such as name, country and dollar value

3. Do a quick search of other relevant websites and copy their URLs here.

4. Copy and paste the URL’s

5. Click Research Report

Page 8: Review and Tutorial of Link Emperor, an easy tool to build links

I searched f or the keywords “how to start a blog” and just grabbed various relevant sites of f the searchresults.

You will see that the system came up with additional keywords that we can use.

Once again the report will show you the dif f erent keywords it came up with and the amount of traf f ic it gets.Select the keywords to add to your campaign list and click on Assign selected to Target.

Adding Art icles

There are a couple options f or adding articles which we need f or the links we’re building.

Page 9: Review and Tutorial of Link Emperor, an easy tool to build links

The f irst option is to generate articles. Click on the Article Tab and then select Generate Articles.

If you have an account with articlebuilder.net you can use that or do a database search of pre-written PLRarticles. Let’s select those to see why this options is less than ideal.

You can see they have pulled up an article f or us but as you take a closer look, you’ll see that the problem isthat it ’s not unique enough.

A much better option is to add an article manually. If you don’t know how, check out my advanced spinningtutorial to create well spun articles that are unique and makes absolute sense.

This is very important! This is usually why most SEO campaigns f ail and you need to learn how to properly spinan article so it passes human moderation.

Also remember to take note of the auto generation settings.

Select no so that Link Emperor doesn’t automatically generate the PLR articles f or you if you don’t have any.That way you’ll avoid exposing your URL’s to the PLR auto content.

Link Building

Now onto link building!

To start building links f irst you need to tell Link Emperor which types of links to create. Change the tab to Linkbuilding and select Change Campaign Allocations.

Page 10: Review and Tutorial of Link Emperor, an easy tool to build links

Make sure you choose to blast each campaign separately! This is so you don’t get links f rom two dif f erentcampaigns which might not have relevant content to each other.

If you have more than one campaign setup you can choose how to divide up your credits amongst them.

Next let’s change the anchor text distribution settings. This will mix anchors up to prevent you f rom using toomany exact match anchors which is a main cause of Penguin penaltys.

Move the slider and it will show you the percent randomization of your keywords.

For example I have it set to 16% to an exact match, 27% to a variance of the exact match and 57% to genericwords. This will help stop you f rom getting hit f rom Penguin!

Page 11: Review and Tutorial of Link Emperor, an easy tool to build links

Now we can check the type of links we want to build. Under the Campaigns tab, select the link building tab andclick on Customize Link building settings.

Use the sliders to allocate the number of links per type you want your campaign to have.

For this campaign, we’re going to reduce the amount of f orum prof iles, wiki submissions, blog comments,article submissions, platf orm submissions, video creations and social bookmarking.

But increase press release submissions and private posts.

Underneath the additional options, you can choose to not build links on adult/objectionable sites, to blasttarget and keywords together and f or it to handle priorit ies f or you.

Click save link building design to f inish. But if you want to do tiered link building, move the red slider in themiddle to get a new group of blue sliders called Buf f er Tier.

Page 12: Review and Tutorial of Link Emperor, an easy tool to build links

The higher you move the red link slider, the buf f er t ier slider grows to a higher percentage.

The basics of t iered link building comes down to how many tiered links you have connected to your init ial setof links. So under the Approx. Links per month column, it ’s necessary that the blue number is larger than thetotal number in green.

Now we need to change our buf f er t ier to get this proportion right. Let’s increase the blog comments, articles,and have a medium amount of wiki, less f orum prof iles, more social bookmarks and that should create a nicestructure there.

Don’t f orget you can change the blasting and buf f er amount!

You can choose which option you would like, create less and blast more or to create more tiered links and blastless.

Leaving it around the middle is a good starting point.
