Last year I opened an account at betterthanbacklinks which gave me a blog profile on a PR7 site. The service afforded me vast editorial powers like the mods lording it over on the almighty wikipedia or about.com portals. My SERPS skyrocketed in no time.

Shortly after, the site moderators of betterthanbacklinks released for free a software they once sold for $47. It’s called comment sniper - something that I feel is just as powerful - and a virtual gatling gun in the world of SEOs. Do you want to increase your rankings in a month? This software makes it easy!

Here’s how Comment Sniper kicks ass.

• First, do some research and locate the most popular & influential blogs related to your niche audience. Technorati and google blog search helps for this step. Create the list and load them into Comment Sniper for 24/7 monitoring of new articles being posted.
• You then configure the Comment Sniper with your cell number (for SMS monitoring notifications). Let Comment Sniper chug in the background as you surf the net.

• The second a new post is made to a blog being monitored, Comment Sniper fires off a Desktop Notification and/or an SMS to your mobile phone.
• Being alerted first to the new post within seconds after publication, you can then visit and be the first to comment. Remember to add value to the article being discussed- don’t spam with viagra and seo anchortext… this ensures that readers browse to your website.

I actually found Comment Sniper addicting. My cell rings almost hourly, and if I’m connected to the internet, I surf right in and comment add value to the post with insights and witticisms.

Do the same , and in no time, you will have sent out hundreds of comments in a month and received as reward, a stampede of visitors from valuable, targeted, and theme relevant links. No doubt, it’s helped not just actual visitor traffic, but SERPs and PR as well.

Happy commenting!
