Q: What is Rankarama?
A: Rankarama is the automated one-way link building technology that will help drive targeted traffic to your website.
2)
Q: How does Rankarama work?
A: Rankarama allows you to cut through the normal time-consuming process of finding link partners for your website. The technology is based on backlinking
which increases the exposure and popularity of your website. Search engines rank your websites based on the number of backlinks pointing to back to your
website for any given anchor text. Anchor text is the actual text that is hyperlinked and should be directly related to the keyword you are targeting.
3)
Q: How do you get backlinks for your members?
A: Rankarama owns a large network of themed blogs across multiple class C ip clusters. What this means for our members is that content containing one-way links submitted to our network is guaranteed to be accepted as long as it meets our guidelines. Our content network is very large and growing every month. Our network includes blogs and article directories. We also offer additional services to our members to allow automatic forum posting and commenting across our entire content network. All our websites have high PR that is growing every month and our domains are aged from 2-10 years. This ensures all your backlinks are coming from quality, known, ranked sites.

Q: How do I submit content to the Rankarama content network?
A: Once you have signed up as a member, you will be given full access to the members only area. The member's area contains submission forms for you to submit content directly to the Rankarama content network. The type of content you can submit includes articles, posts and videos. There are step by step video instructions in the members area showing you exactly how to create your content in the correct format and submit it to the Rankarama content network.
5)
Q: What if I don't have time to create my own content?
A: This is not a problem. In the Rankarama member's area contains information and links to order individual articles and posts or article and post packs. You can also order video content. Any content ordered from the member's area will be automatically loaded into the Rankarama content network for you.
6)
Q: If Rankarama owns the entire content network, aren't I putting all my eggs in one basket?
A: Firstly, our content network exists across multiple class C ip clusters. What this means is that all our blogs, forums, article directories and video sites are hosted on their own ip addresses. This is especially important when trying to boost your own rankings with backlinks. The sites you post content to need to be high quality. We ensure the standard and quality of our sites by building the PR of our sites through ensuring content is themed. We also only use aged domains from 2-10 years old. Basically if you're going to put all your eggs in one basket, Rankarama is the basket to use.
Secondly, we allow 3rd party publishers to join the Rankarama network. This is a unique feature of Rankarama. In essence we have a blended approach to our content network. We control a large proportion of our network with our own sites, but also ensure diversity by allowing quality publishers to publish content from our network. It really is a win/win/win scenario.
7)
Q: Can't I get banned by the search engine for buying backlinks?
A: This is a common question, and the answer is no. With Rankarama, you are not buying backlinks. As a member you have direct access to a vast, themed content network. Rankarama allows members to publish unlimited content to our network. We ensure the integrity and quality of the network by manually reviewing all content submissions to ensure guidelines are met, and content is submitted to the correct categories. Your content will be picked up from the Rankarama network and distributed all across the internet. This process is an organic backlinking strategy and is not frowned upon by the search engines.
8)
Q: How big is the Rankarama content network?
A: At present, our sites number in the 1000+. When operating at full membership capacity, we have a commitment to grow our network by 100 new themed sites per month. We produce a monthly report which analyses the trends of content submissions by our members. The more popular categories receiving content submissions will receive more themed websites created for ongoing use.
9)
Q: How did the Rankarama content network get so big?
A: The Rankarama content network consists of our own network of high quality blogs that are hosted on Class C multiple IP addresses. We add new blogs to this network every month. In addition to our own sites, our partner websites who have also joined the Rankarama content network use our Rankarama Auto-poster Plugin to automatically scrape themed content from our article database and post it to their blogs.
10)
Q: Why is membership capped at 300?
A: To ensure the quality and integrity of the Rankarama content network and service, we need to cap the membership at 300. All content submitted to our network is manually reviewed by our staff, this is a time-consuming process but is necessary to maintain the integrity and quality of the network. As you'd expect reviewing content for 300 members on a daily basis requires a dedicated and hard working staff and is another reason why we need to cap the membership number. From time to time, we do expect spots to become available again, and we will open the doors briefly to fill those spots.
11)
Q: What kind of content do you accept for submission to the Rankarama content network?
A: We accept 100% unique content for submission to our network. This means that you, your staff or an outsourcer must have written the content specifically for you. If you have pre-existing articles that you have submitted to other services, then we ask that you re-write these before submitting them to the Rankarama content network. We need to ensure we avoid duplicate content on the content network.
All articles you submit should be at least 300 words, posts should be at least 100 words, and videos should be no longer than 10 minutes. We also have a number of other guidelines relating to keyword density, spelling and grammar, capitalisation etc. these can be reviewed in the membership area.
12)
Q: Can I submit PLR content?
A: Yes, you can submit PLR content, as long as it has been rewritten. We prefer you submit unique content, but PLR content is also okay, as long as it is rewritten and differs at least 50% from the original PLR content. We have guidelines on how to rewrite content in the members area.
13)
Q: If you accept PLR content to your network, how are you ensuring the quality and integrity of Rankarama the content network?
A: Firstly, we only accept re-written PLR content. This is an important distinction. We require at least 50% variance from the original PLR content. For all intents and purposes once this is achieved the content IS unique. Secondly, all our websites contain special software that ensures content is unique, even within our network! So you may have one article going out to 300 of our themed websites. Each version of that article will be unique. The special software randomizes keywords, changes sentence order and paragraph order. So the content is still 100% human readable and useful for the end user.
14)
Q: What happens if content I submit gets rejected?
A: No problem. If we reject any of your content submissions, we will tell you exactly why it was rejected, and you can fix the problems and simply resubmit it to the Rankarama content network.
15)
Q: Is there any banned content you do not accept?
A: Yes, you cannot submit any content that is illegal, relates to pornography, gambling, hate or racist material. Use your common sense. If it's illegal or immoral, then we don't want it on the Rankarama content network.
16)
Q: How long does it take for my content to get reviewed and approved?
A: Typically you can expect your content to be fully reviewed within 24 hours. This time is often much shorter, and depends on the time of day and week and how many members are submitting content simultaneously. When your content is approved it is added to the Rankarama content network immediately.
17)
Q: How quickly can I expect to see results within the search engines?
