Advanced Strategies and ResourcesWhile the Ring of Fire strategy is geared to ranking Youtube videos, it will also work for SEO, especially when use with parasite sites. And you may want, or need, to push even more power into your Youtube Ring of Fire networks. When it comes to combining modern SEO, linking and social network marketing there's two programs I totally recommend that work perfectly with IFTTT: Yes, these are affiliate links. But I am a paying customer of both programs myself. I'm not asking you to buy something I don't pay for myself. Not only are both very effective they are each really inexpensive. MassPlanner starts at $9.95 a month and FCS Networker has an option for only $17 a month to get you going. There are a number of great tutorials already on Youtube for each and can be found through a YouTube search, plus each has great training of their own, so I won't get into how to use each of them. Instead, I'll give you some tips and info as to how they enhance your promotional campaigns. MassPlanner MassPlanner is a social networking tool. It posts to some of the major social networks and it builds friends and followers to your social accounts. IFTTT will also automatically post to social account, but IFTTT posts are only triggered through an online even. With MassPanner you can create content and posts on your own PC to be scheduled. Another thing is, when posting using a service like Buffer, Buffer will often leave a footprint saying a post was made using Buffer. With MassPlanner, there are no footprints. IMO, it's looks much more natural not telling people the posts have been automated. MassPlanner can also post to FB groups and LinkedIn groups, which IFTTT doesn't do. One good technique to use is to create your own FB and LI groups and use MassPlanner to post to them. This will give you some good SEO and social benefits while not having to worry about the groups' moderators banning you for spam. It isn't spam if it's your own group. :) A big benefit of MassPlanner is that it can automatically follow and unfollow other social accounts, creating a built-in audience for your videos and content. If you create good, interesting videos and make them available to people interested in those topics, you'll get completely natural views for your videos. And you're giving your videos the best chance at being shared and going viral. MassPlanner has a unique payment system. It's $9.95 per month which is very reasonable and gives them motivation to update as needed as well as add new features, which they do all the time. For $9.95 a month you can market and manage 2 accounts at each of the following essential social sites:
If you want to manage more accounts, you can buy extra modules for a one-time payment. For example, for $25 you can add a "+15" module which will give you the ability to manage 15 more accounts for each social profile, plus the 2 you already get, for a total of 17 accounts. Again, the $25 is a one-time payment. There are plenty of other options and upgrades available so you can really customize MassPlanner and only pay for what you need. I suggest you get the "add 8 accounts" module for only $15 when you start out. This will give you a total of 10 accounts for each social platform. However, you probably really only want to use the extra accounts with Twitter and maybe Google+, the others are a little too risky. With 10 Twitter accounts you can build each slowly with targeted followers while still building a huge total audience, using different resources to find followers for each account. This gives you the best of both worlds, safety and numbers. For the very best results, you can often combine IFTTT and MassPlanner. Use IFTTT to post your YT videos to your social accounts when you can. Use MassPlanner to post supplemental content and especially to build friends and followers. Also, you need to create a new IFTTT account for every new set of social accounts you want to use. For example, if you have 10 Twitter accounts and want to post your YT videos to each, you'll need to set up 10 IFTTT accounts. Instead, you can set up MassPlanner to post to each Twitter account using your YT channel's RSS feed. FCS Networker FCS Networker is another powerhouse for video and content marketing and SEO. FCS Networker has three very potent main features:
FCS Networker allows you to create unlimited accounts. However, FCS Networker has limits on how many "actions" you can perform each month. An action is defined as adding content or creating a link, etc. I believe the pricing is something like 3000 actions per month for $17 and 8000 actions per month for $27. There are bigger plans also available that allow more actions. Since some of the accounts are included in both IFTTT and FCS Networker, you can build unlimited accounts use FCS Networker to automatically create accounts to use with IFTTT without them counting against your monthly FCS Networker "actions". Use IFTTT whenever possible to post to those accounts, saving your FCS Networker monthly quota of actions to be used in other ways, such as creating a network of second-tier sites to point link juice and traffic to your tier one authority parasite pages and YT channels and videos. Also use FCS Networker to add links and embed codes to your YT videos to sites that aren't included in IFTTT. This is another example of how RSS feeds can be super beneficial for automation. FCS Networker Compatible Sites (at the time I wrote this)
Two things to notice about the sites in the table above: 1. Note the sites highlighted in red. These are sites that are included in our Ring of Fire networks. Either they work with IFTTT directly or they are social aggregater sites like Storify and Rebelmouse we use for social stacking. Again, FCS Networker will create accounts for these sites automatically for us. Again, creating accounts using FCS Networker doesn't count against our monthly quota of actions. So we can use it to create a number of accounts needed for our Ring of Fire networks, then use our actions to create thousands of links to our Ring of Fire properties, as well as the additional FCS Networker accounts. FCS Networker can use RSS feeds to post content and our Ring of Fire links, so it's really a perfect match for what we are doing. Also, FCS Networker runs on a web site, so you don't have to worry about things like CPU issues or proxies. Misc. Notes: I suggest that you don't create more than one FB account, unless you really know how to cover all your footprints and fingerprints. There's just too much risk and FB only allows one account per person. This is a perfect example of risk vs. gain. You're risking losing all of your FB accounts and aren't really getting much benefit for doing so. Instead, use your FB account and create fan pages and groups and use these to post your videos and content to. I'm not sure if there's a limit to then number of FB fan pages you can create, but I know of some people that are approaching 100 fan pages and haven't had any issues. IFTTT will post to fan pages, but not groups. In most cases it's probably best to use IFTTT to post to fan pages, as IFTTT allows more customization of what is posted from YT than MassPlanner. But you can use MassPlanner to post to FB fan pages using the RSS option. Do use MassPlanner to post to FB (and LinkedIn) groups, preferably that you own unless you're very friendly with the group's moderator and members. Get fake Twitter followers. I know, all the forum "experts" say don't do this. However, there's a good reason to get some fake followers for new Twitter accounts. Twitter has a "followers/following" ratio they use. If you follow a lot more people than follow you back, Twitter will restrict how many people you can follow per day, especially if you have fewer than 2000 people following you. By getting some fake followers you can get the ratio of people that follow you to the people you follow higher and avoid many of the problems of people following you. Be very careful with your Youtube channel and videos. Your YT channel (and videos) are essential. If you lose a channel, all the work you put into your Ring of Fire will be wasted. You can lose other accounts here and there and still have a working ROF. But you can NOT lose your YT channel. (Unless of course, you're not using a YT channel as the focus of the ROF. You can use other parasite sites with this strategy.) This means do NOT buy fake views, likes, etc. for your Youtube channels. You don't need them if you use these strategies and it isn't worth the risk. And again, be very careful with Facebook. They're very good at detecting "funny stuff" and if you lose your FB account, it will be next to impossible to get it back. Social Media Exchange Sites These sites let you "trade" social signals. For example, you retweet a Tweet on Twitter, and someone else will do the same for you. You can also buy social signals from these sites if you don't want to trade. Social signals are probably an important part of SEO ranking. At the very least, they create more links to your Ring of Fire accounts. YouLikeHits - A site where you trade (and buy) things like social shares. Use it for:
SEOClerks - Good site for getting social shares. Use for:
ViralWoot - Pinterest marketing. Remember, Pinterest drives a lot of traffic (and buyers). 13 More Sites Like AddMeFast - This page lists some more social exchange sites. Micro Job Sites You can try some of the SEO/linking services offered at these sites. If you do, I suggest you use a bit of risk protection and point any links created at your FCS Networker sites, something like: Micro job links link to => FCS Networker sites link to => IFTTT sites => Youtube (or other parasite sites) "Micro job" sites are places where you can hire people to so a simple task for you.
