• If I work hard, I want to see real results quickly.But building the kind of authority online leading to massive rankings and traffic takes time, right?
• Well, as I discovered, it doesn't have to.I had heard about the stealthy techniques that the successful video marketers were using to get incredible results by building authority quickly.
• After a few days of research into what they were doing, I realized two things:By borrowing the authority and relevance of the other sites you automatically get better rankings and increased traffic without having to do the hard work yourself — It's a lot like hanging with the movie stars at home.
• There will be paparazzi on YOUR doorstep too in no time.?I could adapt these techniques to get the immediate ranking results for my sites that I was after.So my experiment changed.Instead of trying the traditional methods of writing long-winded "epic" posts, guest blogging (giving my best content way) and spending vast amounts of time tweeting, pinning, and Facebooking this content, I decided to piggyback what other people were already doing.Effectively I wanted to hijack some of their authority.When I applied this strategy to creating authority, relevance and publicity for my content, I saw an immediate increase in the traffic numbers for my site.But when I neglected the technique for a few days, I also saw an immediate decrease in traffic to new posts.Really excited now, I began teaching this technique to my students in my curation course, and they started reporting back some stunning results as well.?I knew I was onto a winner."WHILE I WAS EXCITED ABOUT THE RESULTS, MY POOR VIRTUAL ASSISTANT BEGAN TO COMPLAIN"The only downside to this strategy is the sheer volume of time it takes to do it manually.?First, you gotta research the authorities, hunt down their most relevant content, and do a lot of copy and pasting.?Then take all of that copy and pasting to one service and fill in forms by hand, to make a new feed...And THEN take that new feed to yet another service, fill in more forms, and then take it to two other places where you again... you guessed it...
