I started using Blog Blueprint on March 24, 2010. I wanted to try it out on 3 of my newest websites at the time. At the time these websites were all over the map. Some were indexed and some were not. I would say that initially when I had a site first rank they almost always land on position #11 until I can start back linking.

Here are the beginning stats:

Testing site: #100
Back Links at present: 0,3
Currrent Rank: Not even indexed (8 days old WTH???), after it was finally indexed it was at #12 and today it is #9
Blog posts on BB linking back to main webpage url: 6, today only 2 indexed
PR of blogs posted on: 2 posts on PR-

Testing site: #101
Back Links at present: 1 (Mister-wong), 4
Currrent Rank: #16 and 6 days old, #19
Blog posts on BB linking back to main webpage url: 3, today only 1 is indexed and showing up in YSE
PR of blogs posted on: 1 post on PR-

Testing site: #102
Back Links at present: 1 (Mister-wong), 9
Currrent Rank: sandboxed :( and 6 days old, #6
Blog posts on BB linking back to main webpage url: 3, I added 20 more posts later and today 8 out of 23 total are indexed
PR of blogs posted on: 4 posts on PR- and 4 posts on PR3

Pros:

  • Your posts get indexed within 4-7 days
  • Its cheaper than Linkvana
  • You can spin your blog posts which saves you time and money
  • No limit on how long your keywords can be. Unlike some sites that won’t allow any more then 3 word phrases
  • You have the chance for at least half of your posts to land on blogs with high PR

Cons:

  • Limited to only 20 posts per day
  • If you forget to get some posts qued up, your posts do not “roll over” onto another day. You still only get the 20 per day limit
  • Poor communication from the creators. There was a bug in the system two weeks ago where 1 single post in someone’s que held up many posts from being posted that particular day. The creators did not send out any sort of email announcing this issue or to reassure members that all would be taken care of. Instead many people had to fire email complaints asking what happened
  • Again, poor communication from the creators. There was a period of two days where my blog posts were placed on blogs that gave the error of “account suspended”. Apparently they were moving servers but failed to mass email notify us members of any issues

Final verdict for Blog Blueprint is that this is the best method to article market your sites. Its the quickest way to get anchored text links to your pages, pass link juice to your sites and have the back links show up within days in YSE.

Now beyond just these three sites I tested on, I typically spit out 20 posts per main webpage and 20 per inner page. Usually of those 20 posts, about half do end up on blogs with a PR of 3-4. I had even discovered that one was placed on a  PR5 blog a few days ago. So BB definitely gets a thumbs up from me!

As far as rankings go, I have seen some improvement in my rankings. The past few weeks I have been focusing on back linking my last 10 sites I built since they had no back links and they are slowing moving up in rankings.

I think since this system was only 1 month old, they had a lot of tweaking to do. I would hope that in the future they would work on their communication skills. Members shouldn’t have to track them down to ask “Why are my blog posts being placed on blogs that say “account suspended”. There was no excuse for this. The creators should have notified us immediately that the blogs were being moved around and that there was nothing to worry about.
