Guest Blogging in 2021: How I Wrote 80+ Guest Posts in 1 Year

If you just started a blog this year, you�re entering the most competitive search engine landscape in history. If guest blogging isn�t a part of your marketing strategy, you are severely limiting your growth.

It�s not 2008 anymore � you can�t hit page 1 on Google just by plopping down 500 words on a page or joining some shady backlink directory. You need to up your game.

High quality, long-form, media-heavy, and relevant blog posts with backlinks are what rank this year. (Gee, thanks for making us work harder, Google.)

And excluding on-page SEO, getting high quality, relevant backlinks from high Domain Authority sites are more critical than ever. So how do you get the most high-quality backlinks this year?

The answer is modernizing and scaling your guest blogging strategy.

To test the effectiveness of guest posting, I implemented a 15-day guest blogging experiment.

My goal was simple:

In 15 days, publish as many guest posts as possible on high Domain Authority sites to learn four key things:

1. How to master the guest blogging process.

I wanted to learn the ins and outs of how to effectively target influential blogs, perform email outreach, pitch topics, write and edit drafts, and get published on high DA sites as quickly as possible.

2. The impact of a guest blogging strategy on a website�s SEO this year.

Once the 15 days end and any articles are published, I would use SEO tools to understand how effective guest posting was at increasing Domain Authority, Alexa Rank, and driving target organic traffic.

3. Strategies to scale white hat SEO this year.

Black hat SEO strategies have been out of style for over a decade now. I wanted to discover the best ways to scale white hat SEO techniques and accelerate the acquisition of trustworthy, authoritative links.

4. If anyone, regardless of experience, can get high-quality backlinks.

In my guest blogging experiment, I only targeted websites with a Domain Authority of 60+, with the average being 72.5. I wanted to prove that any new blogger can obtain these high-quality backlinks.


My Guest Blogging Experiment: 15 Days, 18,400 Words, and 8 Guest Posts

My guest blogging experiment began on January 4th, 2019, and ended on January 18th, 2019. During these 15 days, I went through every step of the guest blogging process. This process included finding the right contacts, cold email outreach, pitching topics, outlining and writing drafts, and finally, submitting guest posts to get them published.

On January 4th, I started emailing 68 different websites to ask if I could contribute a guest post. Of these 68 sites, 28 were interested. Of these 28, I pitched topics to 18. Finally, of these 18 sites, I got eight articles published in 15 days.

In fact, on the last three days of the experiment � January 16, 17, and 18 � articles were published three days in a row.

Now that my 15-day guest blogging experiment is over, I can safely review the data and assess the SEO impact on my blog.

Here are the results:

  • Eight guest posts published on websites with Domain Authorities of 81, 73, 60, 66, 71, 61, 94, and 84
  • 32 new referring domains
  • 247 new backlinks
  • 268 new organic keywords ranking in the top 100
  • 372% increase in organic traffic
  • +12 to Domain Rating
  • Alexa Rank improved by 600,000

I�d say the guest blogging experiment was a success!

This blog post is your ultimate guide to unlocking everything I learned after 15 grueling days of aggressive pitching, writing, and publishing guest posts.

Update (March 2020): By continuing this process over 12 months, I wrote over 80 guest posts in 2019, increased my Domain Rating from 0 to 76, increased my organic traffic from 0 to 300k+, and started making $61k/month from this blog � see my Blog Income Reports.

What is Guest Blogging?

Guest blogging is the process of a blog owner, writing a guest blog post on another website�s blog. Guest bloggers offer to write content for other blogs in their niche, with the benefit of increased backlinks and referral traffic.


What are the Benefits of Guest Blogging?

If you ever hit publish on your latest blog post, wait anxiously for readers, and then.

*crickets*

You�re not alone. Since it takes time for your blog posts to move up the organic search rankings, it gets discouraging when you don�t see traffic right away.

Writing guest posts is one of the best ways to boost these rankings and build your credibility. By leveraging other blogger�s audiences and Domain Authority (DA), you build up your backlink profile and gain exposure to a broader audience.

Here are my top benefits of guest blogging.

1. Building Your Domain Authority

Your Domain Authority (DA) is a search engine ranking score (from 0-100) that predicts how well a website will rank. Domain authority is a metric created by Moz and measured by many factors, including the total number of links, linking root domains, social signals, TrustRank, and more into a single score.

One of the best ways to build a Domain Authority is by guest posting. When you contribute content to other blogs, you can include a link or two to your website. Obtaining these contextual, dofollow links from high DA websites is one of the best ways to increase your website�s domain authority (and traffic).

2. Getting Valuable Backlinks

Backlinks, also known as dofollow links or inbound links, are links from other websites to your website. Sites like Google consider backlinks a vote of confidence from the referring domain, boosting your website�s credibility in their eyes.

These backlinks are like votes � the more you get, the more search engines believe your content marketing efforts are credible, useful, and valuable.

When writing guest posts, you can add a link or two to your own site within the content, and you can also link to your site in your guest author bio.

3. Generating Referral Traffic

In addition to obtaining backlinks and SEO benefits from writing guest posts, your backlinks also bring in referral traffic. A user reads your guest post and clicks links back to your blog, increasing your traffic.

When writing a guest post, strategically add your backlinks to URLs that you want people to read � a useful article, opt-in email page, or service page.

4. Creating New Relationships with Bloggers

Ultimately, the most important benefit of guest blogging is the new relationships that you build with other bloggers and influencers in your niche.

It�s a very collaborative blogging strategy, and you�ll most likely stay in contact with site owners long after your post is published.

The key is to be valuable. Respond kindly and promptly to emails, send in your drafts on time, and most importantly, create fantastic content. By doing these things, you�ll have a better chance of maintaining a healthy relationship.

Finally, these relationships can also turn into further guest blogging opportunities down the road. Additionally, you can leverage your connections and turn them into other cool projects like co-marketing, podcasts, ebooks, and online courses.

You can also use these relationships to get intros to more influential guest posting opportunities.

How to Pitch Guest Posts to High Domain Authority Sites

1. Start By Understanding Your Value

Before you get started on your journey, there�s one central theme you need to understand.

You have to provide value.

Don�t go into the process of guest blogging for SEO only thinking about what you�ll get out of the deal. First, you need to focus on the benefits you�ll give the site.

Ask yourself: what value are you providing?

  • Does your expertise match their audience�s interests?
  • Does your writing style match what the blog�s audience is looking for?
  • Is the blog currently in need of a lot of content to fill their editorial calendar?
  • Can you leverage link building for them in other guest articles you�re writing?
  • Is there a topic that you�re well versed in that doesn�t exist on their blog?

The first step in pitching and finding blogging opportunities is understanding your value and what you can do to help. This information will be vital in your initial email outreach strategy.

2. Create a Targeted List of Websites You Want to Write For

Once you understand the value you can provide, it�s time to start building your blog outreach list.

This list should be a simple spreadsheet with five columns: Website, Name, Email Address, Status (you�ll note your outreach dates here), and Notes.

To start populating your spreadsheet with guest blogging sites, look up the target blog�s monthly site visitors and Domain Authority by plugging their URL into an SEO tool like Ahrefs.

Aim for blogs with a Domain Authority of 50+. Also, check to see if their blog is hosted on their main domain or subdomain � oftentimes a blog on a subdomain won�t provide as backlink strength as a blog on a root domain.

Remember, the higher the Domain Authority, the more SEO impact you�ll receive from each backlink. Additionally, the higher their monthly site visitors, the more readers your guest post will get.

If you�re new to blogging, it may not make sense to reach out to a site like Forbes or The Huffington Post, as those require real-world relationships and connections.

Aim for websites in your niche with Domain Authorities above 50. To save time during your search, find an article featuring the top blogs and websites accepting guest posts, with Domain Authority scores added in.

But just traffic levels aren�t enough � you need to look for engagement as well.

A WordPress blog with 1 million visits/month, but few comments, Tweets, or social shares could be less valuable than a site with 50,000 visits/month but a highly-engaged audience. You want readers to interact with your content, so look for engagement.

You can also research and find the website�s email subscriber list size. A quality guest article may be shared to their subscribers after it is published, boosting your visibility.

Once you are done adding blogs to your spreadsheet, research these sites in-depth to find their guest posting guidelines. A lot of blogs have a dedicated page that outlines exactly how to contribute, what they are looking for, and requirements on tone, word count, and more.

To find these guest post guidelines, do a quick Google search like: �site:blog.com blog guidelines.� This searches the blog for any content related to their guest post guidelines.

When you start guest blogging, avoid sites that require a full draft submission via a contact form. You don�t want to put in hours of work writing a 2,500+ word article, only to submit it via a form and get no response. Focus on sites that allow you to pitch topics or outlines.

3. Find the Right Person to Contact for Guest Blogging Opportunities

So you�ve pared down your list of blogs based on the criteria above. It�s time to find the right person to contact.

First, use LinkedIn.

Start by filtering your search results by the blog�s company page, then within the company, search for people by using terms like: �Content Manager,� �Blog Manager,� �SEO Manager,� �Editor,� or simply, �Content.�

After you find 2-3 potential contacts, connect with them on LinkedIn. Remember, 2nd degree LinkedIn connections are better than 3rd, and if you have a mutual contact, even better.

Don�t spend too much time on your connection message either, often your text gets buried or comes off as spammy.

You can also use social media to reach out on Facebook. Find the company or blog�s business page and send them a short message. Companies are likely to respond to Facebook messages because they want to maintain their �quick to respond� metrics on their Facebook pages.

Once you�ve reached out on social media, use a tool like Hunter.io or ContactOut to find the right contact�s email addresses. Even if you can�t find their exact email address, a tool like Hunter.io shows email structure, such as firstname@blog.com or firstname.lastname@blog.com.

ContactOut has a helpful Chrome Extension that works on top of LinkedIn and adds people�s email address, phone, and social media channels:

Finally, to stay on the cutting edge with your outreach strategy, check out Respona. They are creating an all-in-one search, outreach, and engagement platform that�s launching very soon.

Using AI, they are planning to be the most comprehensive solution to find content, get contact information, and send dynamic email templates. You can join their early access beta list to test them out before they launch.

Once you have this information, add it to your spreadsheet, and note the date of your attempted LinkedIn connection.

4. Start your Guest Blogging Email Outreach

To recap your progress so far, you now have your list of blogs you want to write for, the correct person to contact, and connected with them on LinkedIn. Now it�s time to start your guest post email outreach strategy by using templates and personalized messaging.

There are plenty of cold email strategies out there. The best tips I learned are to keep your email short, provide value, and showcase your previous work.

Here�s a cold email template that I like to use, with an 80%+ open rate and 50%+ response rate:

Subject Line: Hey (First Name) // Content and Link Building Opportunities � Adam from (Company)

Hey (First Name),

My name�s Adam and I�m the (Job Title) at (Company).

I�m reaching out because I love (Target Blog) and your (Target Article) really resonated with me because (Reason).

I was curious if:
1) You�d like to participate in link building. I write (X-X) guest posts per month and would be happy to link to your site in my content.
2) You allow guest posts on your blog.

I�d love to contribute to your (awesome? informative? useful?) blog and can pitch some topic ideas that I think your audience will enjoy. Here are some recent samples from me:
(Sample 1 URL)
(Sample 2 URL)
(Sample 3 URL)

Please let me know if you�re interested and I look forward to hearing back from you soon!

Thanks,

Adam

That�s it � and this one is a little bit on the long side. In the end, it�s about treating each person as a friend, personalizing your content, providing value in the form of links, and getting right to the point.

Email outreach gets much easier over time once you have a large sample of content and start getting your articles noticed. If you don�t have any writing samples published just yet, have a few drafts in your back pocket that you can share. As a last resort, share a link to your blog.

If you receive an email response and they are interested congratulations! The next step is pitching your topic ideas. Sometimes you�ll receive guidance on topics or themes the blog is looking for, but more often than not, you�ll have to come up with a topic on your own.

5. Perfecting Your Topic Pitch

There are four main criteria for the perfect topic pitch:

  1. Your content doesn�t exist on their site yet. When you have a guest post idea, go to Google and search �site:blog.com topic� to scan their blog to check if it already exists.
  2. Your topic and target keywords have SEO value. Go back to Ahrefs and input the blog�s URL. View which organic keywords are driving the most traffic to see if you can find gaps in their content that you can fill.
  3. The topic matches your expertise. You should be able to write intelligently about the topic and use the guest blog to build more influence in your niche.
  4. The topic matches the audience�s interests. Check their editorial guidelines and look into how they write their headlines. Then read a few of their blog posts to understand better what kind of topic and titles will match their visitors� interests. You can also check out which of their articles are the most shared on social media to see the content that works best.

After your research is complete, and you have 2-3 ideas, share them promptly. You can also note in your email reply that, �if these topics don�t work for your audience, I�d be happy to send over more ideas.� In most cases, (if you�ve done your homework) one of your topics will be approved for a draft.


How to Scale Your Guest Blogging

Before you start clicking away at your keyboard like a modern-day F. Scott Fitzgerald, slow down and consider your options. There are two questions to ask yourself:

  1. Are you going to write the drafts yourself?
  2. Or can you outsource some of the drafts to content writers?

Wait a second.

After all of this research, outreach, and pitching, I�m not going to write the actual blog post?

The answer: not necessarily. 

1. Work With a Content Company, Freelancer, or Guest Blogging Service

If you think that the credited author always writes guest posts, you�re sadly mistaken. The typical blog post takes 3.5 hours to produce (and that number balloons up to 10+ hours for longer content). It may be a better use of your time to get a ghost blogger to write the content for you.

If you own the topic idea, create the blog post outline, and edit the final draft, working with a bylined guest post service or hiring a freelancer can save you time and scale your process.

76% of people surveyed in a Public Relations Journal Study believe that as long as the idea came from (and was approved by) the stated author, ghost blogging is just fine. With some ghost bloggers writing hundreds of articles per year, these backlogged articles need a home.


By outsourcing specific components of the guest blogging process, more of your time is freed up to pitch topics, send in more drafts, and publish more articles.

The perfect way to scale your guest blogging strategy is to separate portions of the process to different individuals.

Here�s how it works:

You, the author, pitch the topic, create the outline, and handle the emails. In unison, your writer pens the initial draft, inserts their links and sends you the finished draft. Then you revise the copy, add your links, and submit the draft.

Since high Domain Authority links are so valuable, if you�re great at pitching top DA sites (think 70+), you may be able to get content cheap or even free if you allow your writers to add their own backlinks into your articles.

Amazing.

You can find competent freelance writers on sites like Flexjobs.

I placed a featured job posting on the ProBlogger job board and got over 60 freelance writing applications in one day.

2. Create High-Quality, Shareable, Long Form Guest Blog Posts

The quickest way to make your guest posts go viral on social media is by creating unique, high-quality, linkable content. What do I mean by linkable?

Well, if you hit publish on a guest post about the Top 10 Digital Marketing Trends, but it has no useful data or images, it�s probably not going to get shared.

Alternatively, if your article is filled with interesting stats to back up your claims, beautiful infographics, and striking imagery, it is much more likely to go viral and generate passive backlinks.

3. Format your Guest Blog Posts and Links to Maximize Effectiveness

Primarily, guest post drafts are written, shared, and approved all inside of Google Docs � a free tool that�s perfect for collaborating with bloggers.

There are a few best practices to understand: formatting rules, sharing options, and link strategies to maximize your effectiveness per post.

A. Format Your Google Doc Correctly

Nothing will make you look more like a rookie to another blogger than not understanding how to format your drafts. Every blog has slightly different guest blogging guidelines.

However, using the Outline Tool within Google Docs will help make your draft easier to navigate and feature the correct headers (H2, H3, H4, etc.).

You also want to understand Google Docs sharing rules. Send your drafts to editors with the share setting of �Anyone with the link can edit.� If you�re paranoid your precious work will be edited into oblivion, make a copy and save it to your Google Drive.

Make sure to also include any images in your document if necessary. These can be stock photos, but are usually screenshots of websites. If you use screenshots, make sure to cite the source URL underneath and add alt text to the image.

B. Strategically Add Your Links

Typically, when writing a draft, you�re allowed to add 1-2 links to your website within the content. Plus, you get a link to your homepage in your author bio. But these aren�t hard and fast rules.

For some guest posts, you might be able to get away with adding 3-4 links to your website in the content. The key is your links need to be contextual, relevant, and highly useful to the reader.

Also, mix up your anchor text so that your backlinks don�t send traffic to your site with the same keyword every time. This is not an SEO best practice.

When placing your links, start by adding at least two within the content, unless the guidelines explicitly state otherwise. Your links should go to blog posts that are relevant and backup the content, not your home page or contact page.

Bonus tip: some blogs are re-syndicated to multiple international TLDs, so one link can potentially count as ten if the website has separate international domains.

C. Add Your Author Bio (With Backlinks)

An effective guest author bio is 2-4 sentences long, gives readers a feel for who you are, what you do, and a way to connect with you. And you�re not limited to just one backlink in your bio. You can usually get away with two (I�ve had a few posts with four).

Another tip is to strategically link to an opt-in email page from your guest author bio to get more subscribers for your list.


4. Link to Target Influencers in your Guest Posts

When placing links, don�t solely focus on yourself � share the wealth!

Links are the currency of the Internet. A recent survey in 2018 found that 78.6% of blogs sell links, with an average cost of $352.92 per link. And this number is rising.

The going rate for a link from a 90+ Domain Authority site can go for as much as $2,500 per link.

Another benefit of guest blogging on high DA sites is that you can leverage this DA to provide value to influencers. For example, if there�s an influential blogger, podcaster, or celebrity you have always dreamed of rubbing shoulders with, link to their website in your guest posts frequently.

Better yet, use an SEO tool like Ahrefs or SEMRush to find specific landing pages where they�re ranking between 5-15 for a high volume keyword. Link to that landing page from your top DA guest posts multiple times to see if you can boost their rankings.

Once you link to the influencer 5-10 times, reach out to them via email. Let them know you love their work, showcase the useful links you�ve sent them, and don�t ask for anything in return.

What? Ask for nothing in return? 

Yes, that�s correct.

The best way to grow your online influence with guest posts is to provide incredible value to the most substantial amount of people, with zero expectations.

If you can become influential and provide real value to real people, people will organically want to help you.

Become so valuable that others feel bad if they don�t help you out.  

Okay, now that all of your influencer links are placed, it�s time to submit your draft. Send your guest post submission and wait for feedback. The editing process is usually relatively quick. In this stage, you can collaborate further inside your Google Doc and answer any comments or suggested changes they may have.

Once the draft is approved, your article will get a scheduled publish date � typically 2-3 weeks out.

You�ve made it a long way, and your guest post is scheduled. Let�s recap what you�ve done so far.

  1. First, you discovered how you could personally provide value to other bloggers.
  2. Next, you created a targeted list of blogs you want to write for, focusing on Domain Authority, traffic, and engagement levels.
  3. You uncovered the right contacts and performed email outreach with a reusable email template.
  4. After receiving a reply, you sent a guest post pitch after scanning their site and understanding their audience.
  5. Once your topic was approved, you started writing and formatted your draft correctly in Google Docs.
  6. Next, you strategically placed your backlinks in your content and guest author bio.
  7. As a bonus, you linked to influencers and people you want to work with.
  8. Finally, you submitted your draft, assisted with edits, and locked in a publish date.

5. Guest Blogging for SEO: Tracking your Results

Congratulations! Your guest post�s publish date has arrived, your article is posted, and you get to read your published work on a popular blog. Take the time to enjoy this moment � your hard work has paid off.

So what do you do now that your article is live? (What?! There�s more?!)

Share your article on your social channels and among your professional network. Once the article has been up for a week or two, it�s time to recognize the SEO impact this article has on your website. Remember, you have to be patient.

It takes time for sites like Google�s PageRank to discover your guest post, crawl its links, and attribute them back to your website. And it takes even longer for these links to impact your search rankings.

Much like submitting your site to Google Search Console (formerly Webmaster Tools) isn�t instant, the same is true for your guest posts.

But after patiently waiting, crawlers hit your article, discover your new backlinks, and recognize the new referring domain pointing to your blog. Let�s track your SEO progress.

Use a tool like Ahrefs (if you haven�t realized already, I love this tool) and check the following website metrics to view their improvements over time.

Blog Traffic Increase


1. Alexa Rank.

The measure of a website�s popularity. It ranks millions of websites in order of popularity, with one being the most popular. Your Alexa Rank is a great metric to track, as it compares the popularity of your site against all others.

2. Domain Rating.

Similar to Domain Authority, Domain Rating is a KPI created by Ahrefs which measures your website�s authority on a scale from 0-100, based on your link profile.

3. Number of Backlinks.

You can view the number of new, lost, and live dofollow links that are pointing to your domain. This number includes multiple links per domain, so if you get four links in one guest post, the total number of backlinks is 4.

4. Number of Referring Domains.

This SEO metric is similar to your amount of backlinks, except that it is only counting the number of websites linking to you, not your total number of links. Based on the previous example, if you receive four links from one guest post, the total number of referring domains is 1.

5. Organic Keywords.

Once you crack the top 100 search results for a target keyword, you can track its progress and movements in Ahrefs.

It�s important that your number of organic keywords increases over time, as new backlinks to your blog posts will increase their visibility and rankings on Google.

Track these results every week (or every day if you�re obsessed like me) and enjoy witnessing the impact of your hard work.

Guest Blogging FAQ.

Does guest blogging work?

Yes, guest blogging still works and is a viable way to build relationships with other bloggers, get in front of a new audience, build your blog�s reputation and improve your SEO.

When I launched my blog in 2019, I wrote over 80 guest posts in the first year and it drastically improved my SEO and traffic. I grew my Domain Rating (DR) from 0 to 76, increased my traffic from 0 to over 300,000 visitors/month, and started making over $60,000/month as you can see in my Blog Income Reports.

Do guest bloggers get paid?

In general, most guest bloggers do not get paid and write for other sites to build relationships and get backlinks for their blogs. Some sites that are in need of content and have a pool of writers can pay you for your guest posts, but typically require you to write a certain number of posts over a period of several months.

Alternatively, some sites may charge you to write a guest post for them in the form of a sponsored post. Prices can range from $100 to $2,000 but the normal price range for a sponsored post is somewhere between $250 and $750 based on the blog�s traffic and reputation.

Should I accept guest posts on my blog?

There are pros and cons to accepting guest posts on your blog. On the plus side, you get to publish free content that you don�t have to write which can increase the number of articles on your blog and increase your traffic.

On the downside, you need to be cautious when you start accepting guest posts. Create strict editorial guidelines and make sure that the content is high-quality and doesn�t include low-quality external links.

Is guest blogging good for SEO?

Yes, guest blogging is good for SEO as it helps your blog obtain backlinks and referral traffic. These dofollow links pass SEO value from the guest post site to your blog via the links you add. This builds up your Domain Authority (DA) over time which helps you rank faster on search engines.

Keep in mind that you should be careful with both the sites you choose to guest post on and how you add your links to the articles. Look for reputable, quality blogs to write for that have a strong DA and high-quality content in your niche.

Additionally, when adding links to your blog within your guest posts, make sure to optimize your anchor text. You should mix up anchor text and make it as natural as possible so that it flows well in the content and provides additional value.

Your anchor text also shouldn�t be over-optimized or always match the exact keyword your blog post is targeting. Mix it up with phrase-match anchors (contains the target keyword + additional terms), branded anchors (your blog name), and even some anchors without your target keyword at all.

How many links should a guest post have?

The number of external links in a guest post is based on the individual sites editorial guidelines. A good rule of thumb is to include 3-5 links for every 1,000 words of content. Make sure to include 2-3 links to your own blog within the content so that you gain SEO benefits from the post.

My Guest Blogging Experiment: Summary

Guest blogging is still one of the best ways to grow your web traffic over time. By writing high-quality guest posts on other websites in your niche, you receive valuable inbound links, increase your Domain Authority, gain more exposure to readers interested in your content, and build new relationships with bloggers.

To get started, discover the value you can provide to other bloggers. Use email outreach strategies to lock down guest posts. Leverage content writers to scale the speed at which you publish.

Build enough influence to get people to write for you. Finally, maximize your SEO impact with smarter link placement.

By conducting my guest blogging experiment and publishing eight guest posts in 15 days, I received 247 new backlinks, a 12 point boost to my Domain Rating, and a 372% increase in organic traffic.

Then I took that initial experiment and published over 80 guest posts in one year, improved my Domain Rating from 0 to 76, increased my blog traffic from 0 to over 300,000 visitors/month and started making $61k/month.

With thousands of websites accepting guest posts from seasoned writers and new bloggers alike, it�s time to up your game.

So go out there and build your online influence, scale your content strategies, and provide so much value that influencers will be asking you for help.

Tips Membeli Domain Expired

Membeli Domain Expired memang bisa dibilang susah � susah gampang, Nah pada artikel kali ini saya mencoba membuat artikel tentang Tips Membeli Domain expired yang menguntungkan Anda. Banyak blogger yang coba membeli domain dengan pagerank yang tinggi, namun pada saat Google update PRnya jadi kosong atau nol atau bahkan NA. Memang sebenarnya Google sudah tidak update lagi soal pagerank ini. Dan saya juga tidak terlalu memusingkan soal PR (Page Rank). Bisa jadi Page Rank yang sekarang ini nampak di sebuah website bisa jadi itu bukan PR yang sebenarnya, atau sebuah website yang tidak mempunyai page Rank bisa jadi PR nya tinggi jika Google masih meng update PR. Bukan rahasia lagi, PR sebenarnya bisa dimanipulasi dengan membuat backlink spam. Jadi saya secara pribadi tidak terlalu memusingkan soal PR nol atau tidak.

Dimana bisa mencari Expired Domain

Untuk mencari domain sebenarnya ada banyak cara dan juga bisa melibatkan software yang gratisan maupun yang berbayar, saya lebih sering menggunakan yang gratisan karena hemat meskipun memang sedikit makan waktu. Berikut ini daftar dimana kita bisa membeli domain bekas atau expired:

  1. expireddomains.net (saya pakai ini)
  2. GoDaddy Expired Domain atau auctions.godaddy.com (saya pakai ini)
  3. namecheap Marketplace
  4. freshdrop.com
  5. Register Compass (berbayar)
  6. moonsy.com/expired_domains/
  7. domcop.com/domains
  8. expire.biz
  9. tbsolutions.info

Perhatikan Umur Domain

Bicara soal umur pasti ada hubungannya dengan pengalaman yang sudah dilalui tetapi apa hubungannya umur dengan domain? Menurut pendapat orang, katanya mesin pencari lebih menyukai domain yang sudah berumur jika dibandingkan dengan domain yang baru sekali di bangun.

Apa benar?

Hal ini masih jadi perdebatan yang cukup membingungkan hingga hari ini, meskipun demikian saya kadang membeli domain yang sudah berumur untuk membangun website affiliate atau backlink yang akan saya gunakan untuk menambah backlink website saya, backlink ini akan saya arahkan ke money site saya.

Untuk bisa melihat umur sebuah domain kita bisa melihat dari data whois, ada banyak cara sebenarnya, Cuma cara cepat dan tidak ribet yang sering saya lakukan biasanya saya ngechecknya pakai website:

caranya gampang saja kita tinggal kunjungi salah satu website di atas kemudian kita masukkan nama domain atau website yang akan kita check umurnya kemudian klik search. Untuk membantu memudahkan kalian saya mencoba membuat video live presentationnya. Video ini kurang sempurna meskipun demikian semoga video ini bisa sedikit membantu kalian.

Domain berekstensi apa yang sebaiknya kita beli? Tidak ada patokan sih buat saya, terserah kalian saja, karena website atau domain ini mau saya pakai untuk backlink atau membuat PBN, biasanya saya banyak membeli domain yang berekstensi .com, .net, org kadang kalau ada .info. ingat usahakan jangan membeli domain yang hanya dipakai untuk jualan. Jadi Anda perlu menghindari domain yang menggunakan nama produk, diskon, promo, buy, cheap for sale dan masih banyak yang lain. Yang lebih penting lagi jangan beli domain yang berbau pornogrfi.

Usahakan membeli domain bekas yang digunakan untuk domain pribadi, perusahaan atau komunitas tertentu, atau kita bisa membeli domain yang seniche dengan website kita.

Apakah Google masih mengindeks website itu

Setelah Anda menemukan nama domain, sekarang waktunya kita mengecek domain � domain yang sudah kita cari tadi. Caranya sangat mudah Anda hanya perlu mengetikkan Site:namadomain.com di Google kemudian klik enter. Perhatikan gambar di bawah ini untuk:

Memeriksa Metriks Domain yang akan di Beli

Metriks apa saja yang akan kita periksa? Nah berikut ini adalah metriks yang akan kita periksa:

  • DA (Domain Authority) > 20
  • PA (Page Authority) >20
  • PR (Page Rank) Bebas karena google tidak update lagi
  • TF (Trust Flow) > 10
  • CF (Citation Flow) > 10
  • Quality Backlink website itu 1- 10
  • History (bersih tidak pakai untuk PBN sebelumnya)
  • Anchor Text (tidak spam, kalau bisa bervariasi)

Standar yang saya sebutkan di atas mungkin sama dengan standar beberapa orang, tetapi bisa jadi ada berbeda juga, kalau kalian mau lebih tinggi standarnya silahkan saja.

Untuk memeriksa metriks diatas kita perlu menggunakan beberapa tools online yang Gratis saja beberapa diantaranya seperti:

Mengecheck Page Rank Domain itu

Mengecek Page Rank kita bisa menggunakan dua tools gratis yang sudah di sediakan, kenapa kita harus menggunakan 2 tools online gratis? Karena kadang saat kita mengecek PR di salah website itu, kadang � kadang PR nya tidak muncul sedangkan di website yang lain PR nya muncul. Ini alasannya mengapa saya menyarankan Anda memeriksanya menggunakan lebih dari satu tools atau website.

Buka situs cekpr.com Pastikan Anda tidak lupa untuk mencetang pilihan �Show Link Popularity�. Lalu masukkan nama website atau domain yang akan kita check. Ini hasil dari CekPR.com

mengecek Page Rank dengan cekpr

Buka situs prchecker.info. Lalu masukkan nama website atau domain yang akan kita check. Ini hasil dari prchecker.info

mengecek page rank dengan prchecker

Langkah selanjutnya adalah kita akan memeriksa PA dan DA. Kita bisa menggunakan tool dari website seoreviewtools.com/website-authority-checker/ kemudian masukkan nama domain yang akan kita check. Kemudian tekan perform check. Nanti website itu akan memberikan hasilnya.

hasil DA dan PA website seoreviewtools

Cara ke dua kita bisa menggunakan MOZ Bar Google Extensions. Untuk cara ini Anda perlu menginstall dulu moz bar di chrome. Setelah Anda install silahkan ketikkan nama website yang akan kita check. Nanti moz akan menampilkan hasilnya seperti yang terlihat di gambar ini:

hasil dari DA dan PA di Moz

Memeriksa Backlink Domain itu

Berikutnya adalah kita akan memeriksa backlink domain yang akan kita beli itu, caranya sangat mudah, kita hanya perlu menggunakan tool dari ahrefs. Jika kita menggunakan atau mendaftar disitus ini maka kita akan bisa menggunakan tool ini dengan banyak domain tetapi meskipiun demikin tetap ada batasan yang di berikan. Jika Anda ingin memeriksa banyak domain silahkan membayar atau mengupdate akun Anda ke versi member. Untuk hagnya bisa Anda cek langsung di stus ahrefs.

Silahkan kunjungi situs ahrefs lalu masukkan nama domain yang akan kita check. Lalu tekan enter atau search, maka nanti website ini akan menampilkan informasi yang kita butuhkan seperti yang ditampilkan dalam gambar ini:

se-ahrefs
image dari Ahrefs.com

Kita juga bisa memeriksa backlink di website openlinkprofiler, karena bisa jadi ada backlink yang bisa di baca pada tool yang 1 tetapi tidak terbaca pada tool yang ke 2. Jadi kalau bisa gunakan beberapa tools untuk mengecek backlink website.

openlinkprofiler-backlink

Memeriksa TF dan CF sebiuah Domain

Langkah selanjutnya yang juga tidak kalah penting adalah kita harus memeriksa TF dan CF domain yang akan kita beli. Saya dan teman saya sangat � sangat memerhatikan ke dua metriks ini. Karena ke dua metriks ini sangat sulit untuk dimanipulasi khususnya pada metrik TF.

Catatan, jika sebuah domain memiliki Trust flow yang kecil kemungkinan besar ada 2 alasan yang bisa kita dapatkan, alasan pertama bisa saja domain yang akan kita beli itu mempunyai banyak sekali backlink namun backlink � backlink yang di dapatkan website itu kurang bisa dipercaya atau bisa jadi memang domain yang akan kita beli ini belum mempunyai backlink. Tetapi jika TF dan CF sebuah domain kecil jika domain itu se-niche dengan money site Anda saya sarankan beli saja.

memeriksa TF dan CF di majestic

Memeriksa History Domain

Langkah berikutnya yang juga harus menjadi perhatian kita adalah kita perlu memeriksa sejarah domain ini di archive.org. perhatikan apakah domain ini dulunya pernah dipakai untuk website autoblog atau pernah digunakan untuk PBN website lain atau tidak, jika ya maka jangan beli domain itu.

memeriksa sejarah domain

Setelah semua sudah kita check maka langkah selanjutnya adalah kita tinggal membeli domain itu dan membangun domain itu menjadi blog dan mulai memasang backlink untuk moneysite kita. Semoga artikel ini bisa bermanfaat ya buat kalian.

Holy Grail SEO: High Volume, Low Competition Keywords

If there is one thing about SEO that most people do wrong it has got to be keyword research and implementation.

Even those who consider themselves experienced SEO pros are still doing keyword research using tools that don�t help to formulate complete content marketing strategies.

For example, I still see the primary keyword research being done in the Google Keyword Planner where your reference points for competition are �high, medium, or low. �

These criteria are just not good enough to help you plan your content marketing strategy around, especially when you consider how relevant link building is to ranking.

Keyword research should identify opportunities for ranking with a strategy that is aligned with your website�s ability to rank for them.

Instead of targeting keywords or topics that have high volume, we need to target keywords and topics that we actually have a chance to rank for, making the best use of our time and SEO efforts.

So what if there were a way to guarantee that the content you write would actually rank with little or no link building efforts?

A way that purely relied on very systematic keyword research to find topics, sub-topics, and long-tail keywords that could be used to create resounding content marketing strategies and drive loads of traffic to the content you produced?

There is a way and I have aptly named it �Holy Grail SEO.�

We know the Holy Grail in Arthurian literature as a cup that has magical powers to provide happiness and infinite abundance. You, too, can do SEO that uses Holy Grail SEO tactics: target high volume, low competition keywords.

Keep reading to learn more about Holy Grail SEO and:

  • The importance of low competition keywords and who should be going after them.
  • Where to find high volume, low competition keywords.
  • How to use keyword competition data together to create complete topics.
  • How to generate happiness and abundance through your SEO and content.

We need to target keywords and topics that we actually have a chance to rank for

Are There Any High Volume, Low Competition Keywords Left?

If you�ve done SEO in a competitive industry you know how hard it can be to find topics to rank for that no one else has covered or that don�t require extensive amounts of link building.

You�re smart enough to know that the good old-fashioned �publish and pray� approach to ranking content just doesn�t work.

This is why SEO pros must leverage low competition keywords into their overall strategies so that they can get their sites to compete with the big boys.

Why Are Low Competition Keywords Important?

As SEO pros, if we are starting out with a client who is:

  • A startup.
  • Has a new website.
  • Has little to no domain rating.
  • In an industry that is super competitive.
  • A combination of the above.

�then we are plagued to try and get results, fast.

Beyond the standard optimizations of the website, building our product or service pages, and trying to convince our clients they need a bigger budget for PPC or social promotion, we need to use our SEO expertise to make sure our clients stick around (or our bosses don�t fire us!).

While every client agrees that they understand SEO takes �six to eight� months, come month three with no sales generated they get squeamish.

And this is exactly why we need to use low competition keywords in our SEO and content marketing strategies. Low competition keywords are those that can rank with little to no link building and little to no domain authority.

Performed properly, merely publishing a blog based on a target of low competition keywords can provide (relatively) quick traffic and long-tail rankings.

Better yet, it provides us a solid foundation in which to write more competitive topics and go after more difficult, and often more volume-rich, topics.

Who Should Be Going After Low Competition Keywords vs. High Competition Keywords?

We�ve all reverse-engineered competitor websites in an effort to determine why they outrank ours.

We think, my topic is more in-depth, we have better graphics, better references, more social shares, and my blog is more-up-to-date, so why doesn�t it rank better?

More often than not this is because or competitors have a higher domain rating than us.

Sidenote: I say domain rating (DR), Ahrefs definition of the strength of a website�s backlink profile on a logarithmic scale of 0 to 100, with the latter being the strongest. Domain authority (DA) can also be used interchangeably.

Domain rating is why sites like Forbes can publish articles, do zero outreach, and generate a fraction of the backlinks as the rest of and still outrank us.

Sites with high domain rating are usually trusted resources and can publish content and rank for it while the rest of us have to work a lot harder at it.

Therefore, if you have a site you are trying to rank a blog for, chances are you�ll be going up against a media site or some very-well established juggernaut in your vertical.

This is also why you should be spending more of your time finding and developing content around high volume, low competition keywords, and topics.

Bottom line: high DR sites can go after high keyword difficulty topics and will usually rank for them; low DR sites, well, can�t.

So how do we define a high DR site?

High DR sites are measured generally, from the 0 to 100 scale, but can also be measured on the industry level which can also mean a high DR is industry-related.

For example, a site like Forbes is a general site that covers a broad range of topics and has a DR of 93. Forbes may or may not be going after keywords that you are.

In that case, you may not have to compete with general high DR sites like Forbes (you lucky dog).

If you don�t you are probably competing with other industry sites with a higher DR than yours, meaning you still have to be deliberate with your keyword research and topic creation.

Then again, there are industry sites that have huge DR.

For example, if you�re in the real estate space, there�s a good chance you�ll be going up against Realtor.com (DR90) or Zillow (DR91). In many cases, we�re up against industry sites and general sites for the same keywords/topics.

That�s OK though, we can still compete with these sites!

Where to Find High Volume, Low Competition Keywords

Now that we have an understanding of why low competition keywords are so important to so many of us, let�s take a look at three great ways I like to find high volume, low competition keywords.

Note: The definition of high volume keywords can be subjective. During your research you may find that you are targeting topics that have thousans of searches every month while other times you may be targeting those that have hundreds. Either way, keep in mind that the target keyword and topic may generate lots of long-tail traffic, which is why we will dive into using this research to piece together complete topics.

Method 1: Using Google SERPs to Reverse Engineer Results

Sometimes with keyword research, you can have a direct topic in mind to begin your research and other times you just visit competitors sites to find ideas. This first approach has to do with the former.

For example, my financial planning client Castle Wealth Management does a lot of wealth management for clients that are high net worth and thus wanted to create a blog on the topic of trusts.

So, before diving into a specific topic just because they wanted to cover it, as an SEO and content marketing agency, we push our clients to be more intentional about what we cover.

Being in the finance industry, I knew we�d be up against huge juggernauts like Forbes (DR 93), Nerd Wallet (DR 86), and Kiplinger (DR 84).

Taking to the Google SERPs and using the Ahrefs Chrome extension for its data on DR, Referring Domains, and Keywords a URL ranks for, we quickly found that generic posts on trusts such as �What is a trust?� were indeed dominated by the likes of huge brands like Bankrate.

Further, the topic had a Keyword Difficulty (KD) of 29, the top post had 40 referring domains (RD), and the top site, a domain rating of 89. Since the goal is to generally get within the top three rankings, we decided to move on from this topic.

Keyword difficulty

After a handful of searches we discovered the long-tail topic �why would you put your house in a trust?� was opportune for the picking. Below we see this exact keyword gets 200 searches per month.

Holy Grail SEO: High Volume, Low Competition Keywords

Now, 200 is not really a pot of gold by any means in terms of volume, but you�ll see that sometimes you have to look beyond the primary keyword volume and keep an eye on long-tail traffic.

When researching this topic we found that a site (Darrow Wealth Management) with a similar DR (31 to our client�s 27) was ranking #1.

Further, their post on the topic only had 7 referring domains and was ranking in the top 100 for over 1,600 keywords, many of which were in the top 10. Long-tail goldmine? Perhaps�

Inside Ahrefs, you are able to take a look at all the keywords, their volume, their keyword difficulty, position, and more to get an idea of how your competition stacks up.

Holy Grail SEO: High Volume, Low Competition Keywords

As you can see, Darrow Wealth Management ranks within the top 5 for a ton of searches related to �why would you put your house in a trust.�

With this knowledge in the bank, we can now take an even closer look at our primary keyword to see what kind of backlink profile we need to build if we want to rank on Page 1.

Holy Grail SEO: High Volume, Low Competition Keywords

According to Ahrefs, the keyword difficulty of 3 means we�ll need links from about 4 websites to rank in the top 10 for this keyword. I�ve found this metric to not always be true as we were able to rank #2 for this search with only one backlink.

Fast forward about three months post blog production, and you�ll see our high volume, low competition strategy worked.

Check out how our client�s site now ranks for related keywords:

Holy Grail SEO: High Volume, Low Competition Keywords

While the site is not in Position 1 for the target keyword, we only actively built one backlink to the page and have benefited tremendously from our strategy. The blog ranks for a ton of long-tail searches, over 500, and grew organically over the next eight months:

Holy Grail SEO: High Volume, Low Competition Keywords

This is all but one strategy to find keywords and topics to write about. You can also let software do all the work for you.

Oh, and if you�re saying �well there really isn�t any competition for that at all what a joke this strategy is� just check out the high DR sites that are also going for this keyword that our strategy has beat out.

Our strategy put our client in the second spot and beat out sites like SFGate (DR90), CNN (DR92), and Pocket Sense (DR70) all with one referring domain.

Holy Grail SEO: High Volume, Low Competition Keywords

Method 2: Using Keyword Software to Target Specific Topics

Another method that is really good for finding high volume, low competition keywords is by using software to help you filter through data. Using the Ahrefs Content explorer, we can utilize some great filters to find low hanging fruit content.

Start with a generic keyword search. For example, �garment bag.�

Holy Grail SEO: High Volume, Low Competition Keywords

Now, you�ll see a bunch of pages in the index that mention your target keyword. In this case, there are over 14,000 pages in the index so I want to filter them out.

There are a lot of considerations and filters that can be applied, but part of the fun is playing around with the tool.

First and foremost, however, you�ll want to filter out any pages that are not ranking for anything. I�ll set the organic traffic filter to �From: 500� for starters so we only see pages that rank for over 500 keywords. You can be more aggressive or less aggressive depending on the results.

In this case, the filter leaves me with 173 pages which is pretty good considering where it started.

Holy Grail SEO: High Volume, Low Competition Keywords

Because I want sites that have a low, or relatively modest domain rating, I�ll also filter sites that are above a DR30.

I do this because I will know my chances of finding a topic that a low DR site ranks for means my site can probably do the same. 

This is not always the case, however. Sometimes high DR sites can be goldmines for low competition, high volume topics. But in this example, we�ll stick to low DR sites that have low competition, high traffic blogs we can steal from.

With our new filter set, we now see there are 10 pages to evaluate based on our �garment bags� topic:

Holy Grail SEO: High Volume, Low Competition Keywords

Now, all we have to do is open up the organic traffic tabs on the various sites to see if we can find some keyword opportunities that fit the Holy Grail bill.

Holy Grail SEO: High Volume, Low Competition Keywords

Voila! Holy Grail SEO goldmine!

The first blog has a bunch of topics and the metrics tell me it is a good option to cover.

First off, the referring domains to the site are at one, the site has almost 1,200 keywords in the index, the keywords I see showing up are all really low keyword difficulty, and the volume of the keywords collectively and of a few isolated ones are great (ex. �Garment bag carry on� 1,600 volume, KD1; �garment duffel bag� 500 volume, KD1).

I can repeat the same process of investigation on the other sites that showed up in the list and jot down the other keywords I want to hit in my blog.

This approach is great, but the other approach can often find topics even faster. And that is using competitors to find high volume, low competition Holy Grail content.

Method 3: Looking at Competitors to Find HV/LCK Keywords

One of my favorite Holy Grail SEO techniques is to mine competitors sites for keywords and blog topics.

Even sites with high DR can be goldmines for high volume, low competition keywords.

And as we�ve seen in the Castle Wealth Management example, you can beat out sites with high DR with a well-written low competition keyword target.

For example, let�s stick to our finance example. This is an extremely competitive industry with competition in niche sites, industry sites, and general news sites like CNN.

I�ll visit one of the most popular financial advice sites, NerdWallet, to see if I can�t find some high volume topics to cover.

I bring the site into Ahrefs Site Explorer to dissect it. Inside this tool, we can sort topics by the Top pages � pages that the software tells me ranks for a ton of keywords � as well as set a filter for Keyword Difficulty.

In this case, I set the KD filter to 10 (although you could probably go a lot lower to see what you find).

Holy Grail SEO: High Volume, Low Competition Keywords

Take a look at the filtered settings to see if there are contextually relevant topics that you think your audience would enjoy.

For example, let�s say I run a general financial advice site, right off the bat I see �how to fill out a money order� and �best time to buy a tv� as some potential targets.

To investigate further, I open the Organic Keyword report for each and look at the Volume and Keyword Difficulty of the results.

The Position is also worth noting as well as this shows that solid rankings here can likely be duplicated with a similar blog.

Holy Grail SEO: High Volume, Low Competition Keywords

Holy Grail SEO: High Volume, Low Competition Keywords

Looking at these two side by side, we see that the �Best time to buy a TV� topic has a slightly higher keyword difficulty. Most of the keywords sit around 8 while the �How to fill out a money order� sits around 6.

Further, there seems to be a lot more keyword volume for the money order primary keyword � 23,000 versus 11,000.

Ultimately you may decide to cover both topics but if you were to choose one over the other, you�d want to go with the easier of the two.

Digging a little further still, you�ll want to see how many backlinks you may need for each. You�ll need about 7 and 9 links, for the money order and TV blogs, respectively.

Putting Your Keyword Competition Data Together to Create Complete Topics

I�ll be the first to admit that good keyword research is only the beginning. You�ll still need to implement it properly if you want the research to help drive traffic.

Here are some more tips on bringing the grail home.

Keyword Research Still Needs to Be Complemented with Great Writing

Yes, good keyword research does not mean you can get away with writing crappy blogs. This may be an obvious point, but let�s get that out of the way.

Beyond good writing, one tip I have for you is to be exhaustive with a topic. Being exhaustive with a topic is part research and part logic and I find often involves a lot of keyword rich sub-topics.

For example, let�s take a look at our keyword data for the aforementioned �garment bags� research:

Holy Grail SEO: High Volume, Low Competition Keywords

From here, we know we have keyword data and volume but that alone doesn�t make the blog come to life.

What we want to do is then use some logic to determine what would make good talking points in our post while also being intentional about the keyword opportunities. So, let�s say you decide on a general post of �15 Best Garment Bags of 2019� as your topic.

You can then use this keyword data to break down some good sub-topics that obviously have some volume behind them.

Note: For the sub-topic portion I don�t always focus on topics with low keyword difficulty. This can be helpful to do but if a sub-topic is appropriate for your post, don�t be afraid to cover it if you find it is a competitive keyword.

Perhaps in this post, I�ll have my writer cover the following as sub-topics:

  • Best roll up garment bags
  • Best carry on garment bags
  • Best garment bags with wheels
  • Garment bag carry on rules
  • When to get a tri fold garment bag

In this case, my keyword research is dictating my sub-topics, making it a win for the overall topic but also for the implementation of my keyword research.

Also, check out Google SERPs for even more ideas that Google is telling you people are also interested in within the �People also ask� and �Searches related to� sections in the SERPs.

Holy Grail SEO: High Volume, Low Competition Keywords

Holy Grail SEO: High Volume, Low Competition Keywords

The Quest for Holy Grail SEO Never Ends

The ability to drive traffic to sites that are high volume and low competition is very real. It is a great strategy for startups, new websites, sites with little to no domain rating, and sites that just want to build more traffic.

The research is actually quite simple and with a little practice can be implemented in just a few minutes. While we never rule out link building as a deliverable, it is nice to show gains in traffic without having to spend a bunch of time and resources building links.

Give Holy Grail SEO a try for yourself and I promise, done right, it will work wonders for your content marketing strategy.

Cara Mencari Expired Domain Yang Bisa Me-Ranking Website Anda di Hasil Pencarian Google

Mencari expired domain untuk mengoptimasi sebuah website merupakan salah satu metode yang populer dilakukan oleh para internet marketer dan pakar SEO.

Dengan menggunakan expired domain yang sudah memiliki backlink, optimasi SEO sebuah website menjadi lebih mudah karena domain yang digunakan memang sudah memiliki authority.

Dalam memilih dan membeli expired domain yang bisa menaikkan posisi website anda di search engine, diperlukan beberapa trik.

Anda bisa mendapatkan beberapa domain berumur dengan ribuan backlink dan nilai metrik SEO yang tinggi melalui alat kami dengan mudah.

Anda hanya tinggal mem-filter daftar domain di database kami berdasarkan metrik-metrik SEO dengan nilai tinggi sesuai keinginan anda.

Jika anda mencari expired domain yang akan digunakan untuk membangun PBN atau money site anda sendiri, lakukan dengan hati-hati!

Ada beberapa faktor penting yang wajib anda perhatikan.

Jika tidak?

Apa yang anda lakukan akan sia-sia, atau malah membuat posisi website anda di SERP menurun, bahkan yang paling parah, di-deindex oleh Google.

Jadi, sebelum mencari expired domain, baca terlebih dahulu panduan lengkap ini agar website anda tidak mengalami masalah.

Apa Itu Expired Domain?

Expired domain adalah domain yang telah memasuki batas akhir masa berlakunya (biasanya dalam hitungan tahun) tapi tidak diperpanjang oleh pemilik sebelumnya.

Berdasarkan info dari ICANN.org setelah expired, sebuah domain tidak langsung dilepas ke publik, tapi akan memasuki masa Auto-Renew Grace Period (0-45 hari), kemudian masa Redemption Grace Period selama 30 hari.

Dalam periode tersebut pihak registrar biasanya berusaha untuk melakukan penagihan kepada pemilik domain untuk perpanjangan dan jika gagal domain akan dilelang.

Setiap registrar mungkin memiliki ketentuan yang berbeda.

Contoh jika anda membeli sebuah domain .com di GoDaddy dan setelah satu tahun anda tidak memperpanjangnya, GoDaddy akan melakukan penagihan kepada anda.

Anda masih bisa memperpanjang domain selama 18 hari setelah tanggal expire dengan harga normal tanpa biaya tambahan, jika lebih dari 18 hari anda akan dikenakan biaya tambahan $80 untuk memperpanjang domain tersebut.

Pada hari ke-25 setelah kadaluarsa, domain akan dimasukkan kedalam lelang expired domain selama 10 hari, siapa saja bisa melakukan penawaran dan domain bisa menjadi milik penawar tertinggi (jika pemilik sebelumnya tidak/belum memperpanjang).

Jika dalam masa lelang tersebut tidak ada penawaran, domain akan masuk ke Closeout Auction selama 5 hari.

Domain tersebut akan dijual dengan harga $11 di hari pertama, jika tidak ada yang membeli, domain akan dijual dengan harga $10 di hari ke dua, $9 di hari ke tiga, $8 di hari ke empat dan terakhir $5 di hari ke lima.

Ada berbagai alasan kenapa sebuah domain tidak diperpanjang oleh pemiliknya, mungkin karena pemilik tidak menginginkannya lagi atau bisa jadi lupa untuk memperpanjang.

Jika pernah digunakan untuk sebuah website dan mendapatkan backlink berkualitas, kemungkinan besar domain tersebut memiliki kekuatan SEO yang bagus.

Saat domain tersebut expired, ini adalah kesempatan besar anda untuk membelinya dan kemudian menggunakannya untuk keperluan bisnis online anda.

Ada beberapa kelebihan menggunakan expired domain, diantaranya:

Sudah berumur, Google lebih mempercayai website yang berumur daripada website baru.
Memiliki backlink, backlink merupakan faktor penting dalam SEO.
Memiliki traffik, dengan menggunakan expired domain yang memiliki trafik, website anda bisa mendapatkan visitor secara instan.

Dengan beberapa kelebihan tersebut, expired domain akan membuat pekerjaan optimasi SEO jauh lebih mudah dibandingkan menggunakan domain baru, website anda lebih mudah mendapatkan trafik dari search engine sehingga bisa meningkatkan penjualan.

Terus, bagaimana cara menggunakan expired domain?

Secara umum ada tiga metode yang biasa dilakukan oleh para praktisi SEO dalam memanfaatkan expired domain.

1. Digunakan langsung untuk money site atau website utama.

2. Untuk membangun PBN (Private Blog Network), yang kemudian dibuatkan link yang mengarah ke money site.

3. Redirect 301, dimana trafik yang dimiliki oleh expired domain akan langsung diarahkan ke money site.

 

Kriteria Yang Perlu Diperhatikan

Setiap hari, ada puluhan bahkan ratusan ribu domain yang kadaluarsa dan domain berumur yang tersedia untuk dijual, tapi tidak semuanya bisa memberikan efek positive untuk optimasi SEO.

Hanya karena memiliki umur panjang dan ribuan backlink, belum tentu bisa memberikan kekuatan SEO karena backlinknya memiliki kualitas rendah.

Karena itu, sebelum mencari expired domain, baik untuk PBN ataupun website utama, anda perlu memperhatikan beberapa kriteria agar apa yang anda lakukan tidak sia-sia.

Bahkan jika anda tidak hati-hati dalam memilih, bisa saja malah justru memberikan efek negatif buat website anda.

 

Nama domain

1. Hindari domain dengan frase kata kunci atau Exact-Match Domain.
Apa itu?

Agar lebih jelas, berikut contoh Exact-Match domain:
BuyCheapFootballShoes.com, TipsToFindJob.com, NaturalTreatmentForAcne.com

Trik ini banyak dilakukan oleh pakar SEO, dengan memakai nama domain yang mengandung kata kunci yang diincar, website anda bisa masuk halaman pertama hasil pencarian Search Engine dengan mudah.

Tapi� itu dulu, dulu banget.

Sekarang?

Ini ide yang benar-benar buruk, lupakan trik ini.

Jadi, domain yang mengandung kata kunci itu berdampak negatif untuk SEO?

Jawabnya: Belum Tentu.

Terus kenapa mesti dihindari?

Coba perhatikan tweet dari akun Twitter Matt Cutts dibawah ini!


Yang sebenarnya menjadi masalah bukanlah nama domainnya, tapi kualitasnya yang rendah.

Seperti yang sudah dijelaskan sebelumnya, teknik Exact-Match Domain banyak dilakukan oleh praktisi SEO pada awal 2010-an.

Saat itu Google sering menampilkan website dengan nama domain seperti ini di hasil pencarian, meskipun website tersebut memiliki konten yang Low-Quality.

Karena sekarang Exact-Match domain sudah tidak memiliki manfaat positif untuk SEO, akhirnya banyak para webmaster yang sengaja membiarkannya expire.

Jadi, ADA KEMUNGKINAN expired domain seperti ini adalah bekas website atau PBN dengan kualitas rendah.

Dengan demikian, SEBAIKNYA anda tidak mencari expired domain dengan exact match keyword.

Kecuali, jika Exact-Match Domain tersebut memiliki kualitas yang tinggi, misalnya memiliki banyak backlink dari website ber-otoritas tinggi, nilai DA, PA, TF dan CF diatas 30 dsb.

Tapi itu pun tetap memerlukan analisa mendalam secara manual sebelum anda memutuskan untuk membelinya.

Menganai cara menganalisa expired domain secara manual, akan kami bahas di akhir artikel ini secara lengkap.

2. Hati-hati dengan trademark
Menggunakan merek dagang milik orang lain termasuk dalam nama domain bisa membuat anda terlibat masalah hukum.

Misalkan CheapSamsung.com, Samsung merupakan merek dagang milik sebuah perusahaan.

Jika pihak Samsung tahu anda memiliki website atau blog dengan nama domain mengandung kata �Samsung�, mereka berhak menuntut anda.

3. �Brandable� atau �Brand + Niche�
Hal ini tidak terlalu penting jika niat anda hanya untuk membangun PBN, asal tetap memperhatikan 2 point sebelumnya di atas.

Tapi jika anda mencari expired domain untuk digunakan pada website utama anda, usahakan untuk menemukan nama domain yang brandable, atau brand + niche, sesuai topik atau kategori website anda.

Misal, FashionSky.com, SusanFashion.com, SharkFashion.com, ZilaFashion.com, jika anda mau membuat blog atau toko online dengan niche fashion.

Brandable domain membantu identitas website anda agar mudah dikenal publik, jadi usahakan yang mudah diingat atau memorable dan mudah diucapkan.

Topik/niche pada domain membantu mendeskripsikan website, produk atau bisnis anda.

4. Ekstensi
Cari aged domain dengan ekstensi yang umum seperti .com, .net atau .org, kecuali jika anda menargetkan traffic dari negara tertentu, bisa menggunakan ccTLD (Country Code Top Level Domain).

Contoh ekstensi domain ccTLD: .in untuk India, .id untuk Indonesia, .ca untuk Kanada, .fr untuk Prancis dan lainnya.

 

Topik/niche

Fokus pada niche website anda, walaupun untuk PBN.

Cari expired domain yang sebelumnya digunakan untuk website yang sama atau mirip dengan topik website utama anda.

Jika anda mengelola situs tentang kucing, cari yang sebelumnya digunakan untuk website tentang kucing.

Atau, bekas website tentang hewan peliharaan secara umum, nanti anda bisa menggunakannya untuk PBN kemudian buat beberapa konten tentang kucing dan buat link yang mengarah ke website anda.

Ini erat hubungannya dengan backlink, domain bekas biasanya sudah memiliki backlink dari website yang sejenis.

Kalaupun tidak bisa menemukan domain dengan niche yang sama atau mirip, anda bisa menggunakan domain bekas website dengan berbagai macam topik atau general niche.

Kemudian anda bangun domain tersebut untuk sebuah PBN dengan konten berbagai kategori, termasuk kategori yang sesuai dengan money site anda.

Yang harus dihindari adalah domain dengan niche yang sama sekali tidak ada hubungannya dengan niche website anda.

Jika anda membuat PBN tentang kucing menggunakan domain bekas website teknologi, kemungkinan PBN anda menjadi blog dengan backlink yang tidak relevan.

Walaupun anda bangun PBN tersebut dengan konten berkualitas, secara offpage SEO kualitas PBN anda kurang bagus, bahkan terlihat seperti spammy blog.

Ketika anda buat link dari PBN tersebut ke website utama anda, anda pasti tahu apa pengaruhnya untuk website anda.

 

Umur domain

Kebanyakan para pakar SEO menganjurkan untuk mencari expired domain yang sudah berumur minimal 2 tahun.

Umur domain bisa dilihat sesuai dengan data Whois, tapi kami anjurkan untuk menghitungnya berdasarkan data Archive.org/Wayback Machine.

Kenapa?

Whois menggunakan data tanggal saat domain diregistrasi, sedangkan Wayback Machine berdasarkan pertama kali dibuat website.

Search engine tidak meng-crawl sebuah domain jika tidak/belum dibangun menjadi sebuah website.

Jika sebuah domain diregistrasi 2 tahun yang lalu, dan baru dibangun website satu tahun kemudian, kemungkinan umurnya terhitung hanya 1 tahun oleh search engine.

Jadi kami sarankan, cek umur website bukan umur domain, gunakan data Archive.org sebagai acuan.

 

Google index

Pastikan aged domain yang ingin anda beli masih terindex oleh google, jangan membeli yang terkena Google Banned atau deindex.

Untuk memeriksa apakah sebuah domain masih terindex oleh Google, anda tinggal ketik �site:DomainName.com� di Google search, lihat gambar di bawah:

Google index domain

Gambar A menunjukan domain masih di-index Google, sedangkan gambar B menunjukan domain tidak ter-index (deindexed) oleh Google.

Ada 2 kemungkinan sebuah domain di-deindex oleh Google,

Pertama, domain tersebut kena penalty Google, kedua, domain tersebut sudah drop atau di-delete dari registry, dengan kata lain domain tersebut tersedia kembali untuk diregistrasi ulang seperti meregistrasi domain baru.

 

Metrik SEO untuk acuan

Ada jutaan aged domain yang bisa anda beli di luar sana, gunakan beberapa metrik SEO untuk memfilternya, setidaknya ini bisa menjadi acuan awal dalam mencari expired domain untuk memprediksi kualitasnya.

Majestic TF dan CF
TF dan CF merupakan metrik yang dikembangkan oleh MajesticSEO untuk memprediksi kekutan SEO dari sebuah website dengan kriteria tertentu.

Trust Flow (TF), yaitu metrik untuk mengukur kualitas dari sebuah website berdasarkan sumber backlink yang mengarah ke web tersebut.

Situs yang memiliki backlink dari situs yang terpercaya (trusted sites) akan mendapatkan skor TF yang tinggi.

Sebaliknya jika link-nya berasal dari situs yang kurang terpercaya, akan mendapat skor TF rendah.

TF diukur dengan skala antara 0 � 100, semakin tinggi semakin bagus.

Citation Flow (CF), sama seperti TF, skor CF diukur dengan skala 0 � 100.

Citation Flow digunakan untuk mengukur seberapa besar kekuatan dari sebuah halaman web berdasarkan jumlah situs yang memberikan link ke halaman website tersebut.

Moz DA dan PA
Mirip dengan TF dan CF, DA dan PA merupakan metrik yang dikembangkan oleh Moz.com untuk mengukur kekuatan SEO website dengan skala 1 � 100.

Domain Authority (DA), adalah metrik yang memprediksi seberapa besar kekuatan sebuah domain atau website di mata search engine untuk bisa ditampilkan di SERP.

Page Authority (PA), hampir mirip dengan DA, metrik untuk memprediksi kekuatan dari halaman tertentu sebuah website untuk bisa ditampilkan di SERP.

Perlu diingat, metrik-metrik tersebut bukanlah sebuah nilai yang bisa menentukan kualitas sebuah domain, yang terpenting adalah kualitas backlink.

 

Perhatikan sumber backlink yang didapat, ini bagian penting yang menuntut anda untuk melakukan pengecekan manual.

Carilah expired domain dengan backlink rata-rata dari situs berkualitas dan relevan, jika kebanyakan link berasal dari situs yang tidak relevan kemungkinan merupakan backlink spam.

Lihat perbandingan jumlah total backlink dan jumlah domain yang memberikan link (refering domain), jika sebuah domain memiliki 500 backlink hanya dari 1 atau 2 domain saja, ini tidak wajar.

Backlink yang bagus adalah contextual backlink, yaitu backlink yang terletak dalam artikel. Hindari sitewide backlink, atau backlink yang ada pada semua halaman sebuah website. Biasanya link ini terletak di footer atau sidebar.

Memiliki atribut dofollow, backlink yang memiliki atribut nofollow tidak akan memberikan efek SEO. Tapi para pakar SEO berpendapat bahwa lebih baik memiliki backlink campuran dofollow dan nofollow agar terlihat natural.

Cek OutBond Link (OBL) dari page asal backlink, jika page tersebut memiliki OBL lebih dari 100, kemungkinan dikategorikan sebagai halaman link farm.

Jumlah backlink mungkin tidak terlalu penting, tapi setidaknya carilah expired domain dengan minimal 30 atau 50 backlink. Jika jumlahnya terlalu sedikit walaupun merupakan backlink berkualitas ada kemungkinan suatu saat anda bisa kehilangan backlink tersebut.

Setting Filter

Sekarang atur filtering agar tabel hanya menampilkan domain-domain dengan kriteria sesuai dengan kebutuhan anda, klik tombol Show Filter untuk menampilkan pengaturan filtering.

1. Klik filter Extention (TLD) dan pilih .com, .net dan .org untuk mencari expired domain dengan ekstensi yang umum, atau silahkan sesuaikan dengan kebutuhan anda.

2. Set Moz DA dan Moz PA minimal 15.

3. Set Majestic TF dan Majestic CF minimal 10.

4. Set Majestic RD (Referring Domain) minimal 10.

5. Set Majestic Backlinks minimal 50.

6. Set Age by Archive.org minimal 2.

7. Terakhir set Google Indexed Pages minimal 1 untuk memastikan domain masih di-index Google, jika nilainya 0 maka domain tersebut tidak ter-index oleh Google.

Domain filtering

Silahkan tambahkan filter lainnya sesuai kebutuhan anda.

Setelah selesai secara otomatis tabel akan menampilkan domain-domain hanya yang sesuai dengan kriteria-kriteria yang anda masukan pada pengaturan filtering.

 

Mengevaluasi Expired Domain 

Sekarang saatnya anda mengevaluasi setiap domain yang akan anda beli, walaupun sudah melakukan filtering tapi sebaiknya lakukan juga pengecekan manual untuk memastikan data-datanya valid.

Sebelum melangkah lebih jauh silahkan klik nama domain yang anda inginkan untuk memastikan ketersediaan domain tersebut.

Jika domain memang tersedia untuk diregister, dijual atau dilelang dan anda cocok dengan harganya atau bersedia melakukan penawaran, jangan melakukan pembelian atau penawaran terlebih dahulu.

Analisa terlebih dahulu untuk memastikan bahwa domain yang anda minati memiliki kualitas yang bagus untuk website atau PBN anda.

Silahkan klik tanda plus (+) yang ada di samping kiri nama domain, anda akan lihat data lengkap dari domain tersebut.

Expand Domain SEO Metrics Data

Pada bagian Source Links terdapat beberapa link yang jika anda klik anda akan diarahkan ke layanan pihak ketiga dimana anda bisa menganalisa atau cek domain secara langsung.

 

Cek Google Index

Klik link Google untuk melihat apakah domain yang anda inginkan masih ter-index google atau tidak.

Anda akan diarahkan ke halaman pencarian Google yang akan menampilkan jumlah halaman dari domain tersebut yang ter-index oleh Google.

Jika hasilnya tidak ada halaman yang ter-index, berarti domain tersebut deindexed atau tidak ter-index oleh Google, lebih baik anda cari yang lain saja.

Tapi jika hasilnya menunjukkan ada halaman yang ter-index minimal satu, berarti masih ter-index oleh Google. Lanjutkan langkah selanjutnya!

 

Cek Domain History

Langkah selanjutnya adalah cek history dengan WayBack Machine atau archive.org untuk melihat website yang pernah dibangun menggunakan domain tersebut.

Dengan archive.org anda juga bisa mengetahui umur website dengan cara melihat tanggal kapan domain tersebut mulai di-crawl oleh WayBack Machine.

Untuk melihat history domain silahkan klik link archive.org (A), anda akan diarahkan ke sebuah halaman dari archive.org seperti terlihat pada gambar di bawah ini.

Aged Domain WayBack Machine Summary

Pada bagian atas, anda lihat tanggal (B) dimana domain atau website tersebut mulai di-crawl oleh WayBack Machine, ini merupakan patokan untuk menghitung umur website domain.

Di bagian bawah terdapat daftar tahun dan tanggal, silahkan klik tanggal yang berwarna biru (C) untuk melihat tampilan website pada tanggal dan tahun tersebut.

Domain History by Archive.org

Dari tampilan tersebut anda bisa tahu domain tersebut pernah digunakan untuk website seperti apa sebelumnya.

Hindari domain bekas website dengan niche atau konten terlarang seperti judi, porno, kekerasan, senjata illegal dll, kecuali jika website anda memang dalam topik-topik tersebut.

Beberapa pakar menyarankan untuk menghindari expired domain yang sudah pernah drop lebih dari 2 kali, tapi ada juga yang berpendapat hal ini tidak penting jika memiliki profile backlink yang bagus.

Untuk mengeceknya silahkan klik link Whois (A), seperti terlihat pada gambar dibawah ini.

Domain drop info by whois data

Anda akan diarahkan ke halaman whois.domaintools.com dimana anda bisa melihat umur domain berdasarkan tanggal (B) pertama kali domain diregistrasi, dan berapa kali domain tersebut pernah drop (C).

 

Ini adalah bagian terpenting dalam mencari expired domain karena kualitas sebuah domain ditentukan oleh kualitas backlink yang dimilikinya.

Ada beberapa tool yang bisa digunakan untuk melakukan analisa backlink profile seperti Moz, ahref dan Majestic, dalam tutorial ini kita akan menggunakan Majestic.

1. Referring domains
Langkah pertama, perhatikan kolom MjRD (jumlah domain yang memberikan backlink) dan MjLink (jumlah total backlink), nilai perbandingan kedua metrik harus wajar.

Total backlink and referring domain by Majestic

Sebagai contoh, TravelDiscounts.com memiliki total 502 backlink (MjLink) yang berasal dari 158 domain (MjRD), bearti rata-rata satu domain memberikan sekitar 3-4 backlink.

Nilai perbandingan ini bisa dibilang wajar dan pertanda bagus bahwa TravelDiscounts.com bisa dijadikan kandidat expired domain untuk PBN atau website anda.

Contoh lain, espacioapr.org mendapatkan backlink dari 845 domain dengan total keseluruhan 174,628 backlink, artinya satu domain rata-rata memberikan backlink sekitar 200 lebih.

Ini tidak wajar, kemungkinan backlink yang didapat merupakan backlink sidewide, seperti footer backlink atau blogroll, dimana backlink jenis ini memiliki efek negatif buat SEO.

Bagaimana pun hal ini belum tentu berarti bahwa domain tersebut berkualitas rendah, tapi sebaiknya hindari domain tersebut.

Selanjutnya lakukan analisa lebih dalam melalui website Majestic.com, klik link Majestic dan anda akan diarahkan ke halaman Site Explorer dari Majestic seperti terlihat pada gambar di bawah:

Majestic Site Explorer Page

2. Anchor text
Apa itu Anchor Text? Anchor text yaitu kata kunci, frasa, kalimat atau text yang digunakan untuk sebuah link, dalam kode html akan terlihat seperti ini:

<a href=�http://www.sitename.com/page-url�>Anchor Text</a>

Dalam strategi link building, anchor text memiliki peran penting yang bisa memberikan pengaruh cukup besar dalam optimasi SEO.

Anchor text yang bagus harus bervariasi, bisa terdiri dari:

� Generic anchor, contoh: click here, read more dll
� Brand anchor, contoh: nama domain, nama produk, nama website dll
� Naked link, contoh: http://www.domainname.con/post-page/
� Keyword, contoh: cheap car
� Related keyword, contoh: cheap car in new york, place to buy a cheap car dll
� Image anchor

 

Sebagai patokan, hindari backlink dengan anchor text yang sama lebih dari 40%.

Di halaman Site Explorer Majestic silahkan scroll ke bawah dan lihat bagian Anchor Text seperti terlihat pada gambar berikut:

Anchor text backlink diagram

Dari gambar diatas kombinasi anchor text terlihat bagus karena cukup bervariasi terdiri dari beberapa tipe anchor text.

Selain bervariasi, hindari juga anchor text yang mengandung kata-kata negatif seperti judi, pornograpi, senjata, obat terlarang dan sejenisnya.

Akan jauh lebih bagus lagi jika anchor text yang dimiliki sebuah expired domain relevan dengan niche website anda.

3. Cek aktual backlink
Proses selanjutnya adalah melakukan pengecekan langsung pada url halaman sumber backlink, sebisa mungkin lakukan pada seluruh backlink untuk memastikan kualitas setiap backlink.

Tapi jika tidak memungkinkan karena terlalu banyak backlink yang dimiliki, lakukan secara random terutama backlink yang berasal dari domain dengan nilai Trust Flow paling tinggi dan yang memberikan backlink terbanyak.

Pada halaman Majestic Site Explorer, klik tab �Ref Domain�, dari sana anda bisa melihat daftar website yang memberikan link seperti terlihat pada gambar dibawah ini:

Majestic referring domain tab

Kemudian urutkan daftar referring domain berdasarkan nilai TF tertinggi dan/atau jumlah backlink terbanyak untuk memudahkan pengecekan.

Sekarang saatnya memeriksa aktual backlink yang berasal dari masing-masing referring domain.

Untuk melihat url sumber backlink silahkan klik nilai jumlah backlink pada masing-masing referring domain yang terletak pada kolom �Backlinks� (A)

Majestic backlinks by referring domain

Sekarang anda bisa melihat informasi sumber backlink, termasuk judul halaman (B), url sumber backlink (C), anchor text (D), nilai TF dan CF serta target url.

Untuk melihat aktual backlink, pada kolom �External Backlinks� silahkan klik url sumber backlink (C) untuk mengunjungi halaman asal backlink.

Kemudian cek apakah backlink tersebut masih ada pada halaman sumber backlink, jika memang masih ada ini merupakan pertanda bagus.

Backlink source page

Dari contoh gambar diatas, backlink tersebut menggunakan anchor text �Fabulous Travel: A Thrifty Tour of Scotland� yang berasal dari website USA Today.

Apa selanjutnya?

Pastikan halaman sumber backlink tersebut tidak berisikan konten terlarang, dan akan lebih baik lagi jika kontennya relevan dengan website anda.

Cek apakah link tersebut menggunakan atribut nofollow atau dofollow, link dengan atribut nofollow tidak memberikan efek untuk kekuatan SEO.

Cek juga penempatan link, di dalam konten, kolom komentar, footer, sidebar atau lainnya, link yang paling bagus adalah yang diletakkan di dalam konten.

Silahkan ulangi langkah-langkah di atas untuk melakukan pengecekan backlink berikutnya.

Setelah selesai dan anda yakin dengan kualitas domain yang sudah anda cek, sekarang anda siap untuk membeli domain tersebut.

 

Final Words

Untuk mencari expired domain dengan harga murah, cari yang sudah di-delete atau drop karena anda bisa me-registrasinya dengan harga standar seperti domain baru, atau cari domain dengan tipe listing Closeout dimana anda bisa membelinya dengan harga mulai dari $5 � $11.

Untuk mencari expired domain dengan kualitas yang benar-benar bagus, cari domain dari pelelangan dengan tipe listing Bid, Buy Now atau Make Offer.

Walaupun anda harus bersaing dengan penawar lainnya dan/atau kemungkinan harganya lebih mahal, tetapi hasilnya akan sebanding dengan apa yang anda keluarkan.

Jika beruntung, anda bisa saja mendapatkan domain dengan kualitas tinggi tapi dengan harga murah karena tidak ada penawar lain.
