The top link building tools

This month saw toe launch of SEO Link Monster – a new tool for building large numbers of high quality back links quickly by veteran internet marketers and programmers Brad and Matt Callen.  But what are the top link building tools on the market – and how does SEO Link Monster compare?

The Top Tools

Most people will have heard of these – the most popular and highly regarded tools for building back links.  Arguably the best are Build My Rank and Article Marketing Robot – two very different tools that used together are very effective at improving your search engine positions.

But there are many others – SEO Link vine (a predecessor to SEO Link Monster), Backlink Solutions (a private network of sites), LinkVana (another high PR private network), LinxBoss (automated backlinks), Article Ranks (article/back link distribution software and web site) and now the latest – SEO Link Monster too.

All of these tools are useful – they provide wither large numbers of potentially relevant backlinks (articles, for example) or high Page Rank links (that is, links on high Page Rank PAGES not DOMAINS).  Both of which, in my opinion, are necessary (along with good on page SEO) to get a site to the top of the search engines.

It is impossible to pick one single tool that is the only one you need – in most cases this simply is not true.  If only for the range of different domains, IP addresses and class-C sub nets that using a range of tools will provide.

However, there are some that are more effective than others – and that is where the more interesting part of the debate starts.  How does SEO Link Monster compare to similar alternatives?

What Tools do SEO Professionals and Web Site Owners Need?

Personally, I think you need both high PR links as well as large numbers or relevant but individually lower quality links from a wide range of domains and servers – giving both breadth and depth to your site’s reputation, if you like.

1. A few high PR Links – on high PR pages, not just domains

2. Lots of reasonable quality, but low or no PR links

You need different tools to get these different types of links.  At the moment the top tools (in no particular order at the moment) for each are the following:

Top Sources of high PR Links

Build My Rank
LinkVana
High PR Society
Own site network
Individual site buys

Lots of Good Quality Links

SEO Link Monster
LinxBoss
Article Marketing Robot
SEO Link Vine
Article Ranks
Scrapebox (and other blog comments)

Which are the best?

If I could pick only one from each of the two categories above, it would be Build My Rank for the high PR links and either Article Marketing Robot or more likely SEO Link Monster for the large quantities of relevant, high quality backlinks.

Why?  Build My Rank is one of the only places you can get high PR links – but it is very time consuming to use and rather expensive.

Article Marketing Robot has been a favorite of mine for a while now – I have been using it for over a year.  However, most of the site it posts to are clogged up with spammy poorly spun articles now and SEO Link Monster has many more features.

So, if I could have only one main tool – at the moment SEO Link Monster would be it.

SEO Link Monster – Launched a Week Ago

SEO Link Monster, the latest an potentially greatest SEO link building tool from Brad and Matt Callen, was launched on to the market five days ago today.

It was launched a week ago (on the 7th February 2012) and since then has sold thousands of copies already.  It looks set to become the top selling SEO tool of this year – so I want to talk more about the basics behind this tool and explain exactly what it is.

What is SEO?

SEO (Search Engine Optimization to the uninitiated) is basically the practice of getting a website (or pages from a website) to the top (or at least a good position) in the search engines for targeted key terms.

One of the key ingredients that a site needs to rank highly for even relatively easy terms is back links.  This is also perhaps the most challenging part of SEO – trying to get other sites to link back to your site, and getting Google to notice.

The perks are amazing though – with a good ranking for a valuable buyer keyword, you can get huge amounts of traffic for free – and if you pick the correct key term, it will be huge amounts of very lucrative traffic for any affiliate or web site owner.

SEO Link Monster is a tool for building links – lots of high quality, one way back links very easily and quickly.

What is SEO Link Monster?

SEO Link Monster is a tool for building huge numbers of high quality back links – what a site needs to move up the search engine rankings and stay up there.  It is easy to use and largely automated – you can build literally thousands of links a day (not usually recommended for most sites – but it is possible) with surprisingly little effort.

It has already become so popular – largely because of the reputation of it’s creators (see below) – and looks set to become on of the top tools for SEO professionals, site owners, Internet marketers and complete newbies alike.

It is cheaper than tools like SE Nuke (over $100 a month) and appears to be more diverse and effective than Article Marketing Robot (which, by the way still remains a very good and effective tool in it’s own right and is still one that I would recommend).

Who is behind SEO Link Monster?

this software program was created by brothers, Internet marketers and SEO tool building experts Brad and Matt Callen – the same people behind some of the most popular tools to come on to the market in the past few years.  They are also the creators of SEO Link Vine (a tool for building back links by distributing articles across independent blog sites), SEO Elite (SEO keyword tool), Keyword Elite (PPC Keyword tool) and My Article Network (on of the most popular back link building services on the Internet).

I have written much more about the in a separate post here.

Is it worth buying?

SEO Link Monster is a fantastic tool – it is a way of building lots of backlinks to a site easily and quickly, and relatively cheaply too.  People have already been reporting using the tool over the past week and already seeing improvements in their web site’s search engine positions.

I will write a more in depth review of SEO Link Monster here soon.

SEO Link Monster – Launch Date Today

SEO Link Monster – the hotly awaited link building tool from Matt and Brad Callen – will be available later today.  I have already written about what SEO Link Monster promises to be and about it’s creators here.  However, now is the moment we have been waiting for – very soon it will be available for instant download, and you will have available to you the latest (and potentially greatest yet) automatic link building tool of 2012.

Some people have been asking questions about SEO Link Monster – what is is, what it does and how much it costs.  I will answer as many of these questions below as possible (please feel free to contact me with more if I have missed any out that you were hoping to get answers to), but please be aware that as the product has not yet launched I am not able to give a full review yet.  Please check back later for more information.

What is SEO Link Monster?

I have already written a dedicated post about this here.  However, in as few words as possible, SEO Link Monster is a tool created by Brad and Matt Callen (SEO tool building experts for about 6 years) that is designed to build large numbers of high quality back links to a site in any niche, in large quantities, in as automated way as possible.

Some people have compared it to Article Marketing Robot – a tool that almost revolutionized the link building world about 18 months ago and still has thousands of happy users.  It may well be as significant and useful as AMR – personally, I think it is at least as good.  Possible game changer, to be honest.

When Will SEO Link Monster be released?

SEO Link Monster is due to be released to the general public on the 7th February 2012 – that’s today!

How much will it cost?

I have not had confirmation yet – you will be able to see as the site will be live in the very near future – but I believe that it will cost either $47 or $67 one off fee.  There will be a subscription for premium members (is this worth getting?  I guess it depends on how much money you have to spend and what you want to get out of it) at about $27-$47 a month thereafter.

Where can I buy it?

The links will be up on this site soon – when the are, just click here to go directly to the homepage.

SEO Link Monster Will Become Available On the 7th February

I have already talked about SEO Link Monster, as well as Brad and Matt Callen – it’s creators, but now for the most interesting but:  this monster (get it?) of an SEO tool will become available in less than a week.  A few days to be precise – on Tuesday, 7th February 2012.  For me, and a lot of other SEO professionals out there, that is pretty damn exciting.  Are you wondering why?

What is SEO Link Monster – and What Does it Do?

SEO Link Monster is a tool for building high quality backlinks to your web sites (any number of sites – there are no additional fees for each one) in any content category – and as quicly or slowly as you like.

It was created by Brad and Matt Callen – currently two of the Internet’s most prolific and highly regarded SEO and online marketing tool creators.  Both of them are responsible for a string of different software programs that have been invaluable to scores of internet marketers and professionals for the past six or seven years.

Most recently they were behind SEO Link Vine, a tool designed to distribute articles containing back links across a vast blog network.  It worked very well for some users, but was less effective for others.  However, overall, it was one of the more cost effective and valuable SEO link building tools released over the past year.

With SEO Link Monster, this dynamic duo have learnt and improved.  Link Monster will be more effective – especially in terms of the diversity and quality of the links that it builds for users.

Full details have not yet emerged, so be patient and wait for the launch on the 7th of this month for the full preview and more details of exactly how it works – I will be giving an in depth review here.  Hopefully a useful bonus too.

How Much will SEO Link Monster cost?

The details of the pricing strategy for this tool have not been released yet – however, I belive that the initial cost for the basic tool will be $67 and there may be an ongoing cost of between $27-47 a month for the additional add ons which make it easier and more effective to use.

Is it worth trying – or even keeping?

Personally, I think so.  A while ago I bought a tool called Article Marketing Robot – it was quite possibly the best tool that I have ever used in SEO (aside from being able to post links on private networks, which are essentially the crem-del-la-crem of back links).

SEO Link Monster is the Article Marketing Robot of 2012 and beyond – in my humble opinion.

It is certainly worth a try – especially since it comes with a 60 day money back guarantee.

Where can you buy SEO Link Monster on the 7th?

On the 7th February 2012, when this becomes available, it will be up for sale through the official home page (seolinkmonster.com).

I (most likely along with a large number of other affiliates) will be offering a bonus for ordering this through the links on my site – so shop around for the best deal, then come back to this site, click on one of the links to the SEO Link Monster site and buy it that way! :)

Background on Brad and Matt Callen – Creators of SEO Link Monster

SEO Link Monster launches in about a week (7th Febuary 2012) and is the latest in a series of keyword and Search Engine Optimization (SEO) tools from online marketing experts and brothers Matt and Brad Callen.  But what else have they done – and were their earlier tools any good?

Brad Callen is the creator of some of the most well know tools in Internet marketing, including SEO Link Vine, Keyword Elite, SEO Elite, Affiliate Elite, PPC Web Spy and Niche Revolution (there are more too – but too many to list here).  SEO Link Vine, a tool for building back links to your site by distributing posts (with your links in) across a large number of blog owners sites, was his latest – launched about a year ago.  It has helped many aspiring and experienced internet marketers and SEO professionals as well as total newbies to quickly and easily build links to their sites and so improve their rankings.  Brad has been building these tools since 2005 and is considered something of an expert in the field.  He is also well known on the Warrior Forum for giving advice and help directly to buyers, which is quite unusual to say the least.

His brother Matt Callen is also a well known Internet marketing expert and programmer – he is behind some equally big names in the IM tool creating business including My Article Network, Niche Revolution and Article Apps (again, there are many more – too many to list all of them).  He is an expert on building links – especially for new sites and by distributing high quality articles (one of the most effective methods around).

Both are well known and successful Internet marketers – but they are most highly regarded for the tools that they build, which have been very useful to tens of thousands of other online SEO professionals and marketers.

Why did they build SEO Link Monster?

both were involved with SEO Link Vine last year – this was a tool for building back links to your site by syndicating articles on a large number of different blogs.  It was a very useful tool, but there were a lot of improvements that could be made.  Essentially, SEO Link Monster is a much better and more effective version of this tool.  Not only will SEO Link Monster (let’s just refer to it as “the Monster” from now on, haha!) do the same jobs as Link Vine (only better) but will also be able to build high quality back links from an entirely new range of sources too.

Do they offer much support for users?

Yes – both are very good with giving support to users – even answering pretty dumb questions (I have asked many).

If you want proof, just look at Brad Callen’s profile on the Warrior Forum.  He is easy to contact and has offered lots of advice on how to use the tools he has built to forum users.  They also respond to emails quickly and helpfully.

The bottom line

Both Brad and Matt are well known, highly regarded internet marketing tool creators – and have been for several years.  They offer excellent tools, fast and helpful support and like feedback and use it to improve their products.  All their products come with a money-back guarantee too.

SEO Link Monster: What is it all About?

You may have heard of something called SEO Link Monster recently – the latest invention of search engine and Internet marketing experts Matt and Brad Callen (also creators of SEO Elite, SEO Link Vine and Keyword Elite – two of the most popular and highly recommended search engine optimisation and keyword finding tools available on line).  However, as SEO Link Monster does not become available to the public until the 7th February 2012, there is not much information about what it is and what it is supposed to do available at the moment – which is what I want to talk about now in this post.

What is SEO Link Monster?

SEO Link Monster is a tool for building back links to your websites.

Although I cannot yet reveal in detail how it works (we will have to wait for the official launch to do that!), it is designed by two of the foremost experts in SEO who have created a string of other successful SEO tools and software programs over the past five years.

The more high quality back links you get to your web site with your target key phrase as the anchor text, the higher your site should appear up in the rankings on Google, Yahoo and Bing.  This is what Brad and Matt have designed this tool to do – on a huge scale, very fast.

How is it different to SEO Link Vine?

SEO LinkVine was also created by Brad Callen in 2010 – it is a popular tool for building back links by distributing posts on to other people’s blogs and web sites.  It works for both blog owners and tose who want to build links.

The benefit for blog owners is that they get free, regularly updated content for their blogs without having to do any writing themselves.  And, of course, people who want to build links are able to get free (often high quality – but not always) back links from a wide range of different sites.

However, there were some flaws with SEO Link Vine.  I will not go into lots of detail here, but the short answer is that many of the links were lower quality than expected as were the articles posted to people’s blogs.

Brad and Matt have improved SEO Link Vine a lot since it started – and SEO Link Monster is the latest and much improved version.  It is expected to have much more functionality and be easier to use – but most importantly, the links that it will build to your site are designed to be a lot better.

For more information – please wait for me to write my full review.  But, to summarise – SEO Link Monster is a bigger and better tool for building links that SEO Link Vine ever was.

How does it Work?

As the launch is still more than a week away, I am not able to go into a lot of detail about how SEO LinkMonster actually works.

I will be able to post more information about the technical aspect of this tool at a later date – most likely on the 7th Feb.

Where Can I Find Out More about SEO Link Monster?

There are not any reviews up on the Internet at the moment – so please check back here later, when I will have completed my preview and in-depth review of this software.
