One of his companies \u2018UberSuggest\u2019 is a keyword tool. He\u2019s good enough at SEO to rank on page #1 for \u201cKeyword Research\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I can forgive him for being biased. It\u2019s not like people haven\u2019t got results following his methods. But those people aren\u2019t necessarily \u2018my people\u2019\u2026 as in the folks we\u2019re trying to help. Those who don\u2019t have massive mega-budgets to rank for whatever they want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because believe me, despite SEO being coined as a \u2018free traffic\u2019 method\u2026 it\u2019s anything but.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether you\u2019re paying for software, backlinks, content production, expired domains or what-have-you\u2026 you\u2019re going to paying and paying for a while.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>His keyword method also has the same flaws as every other popular method (like the one used by <a href=\"https:\/\/ampifire.com\/blog\/the-story-of-demand-media-the-content-farming-method\/\">Demand Media<\/a> )\u2026 it\u2019s popular. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Which means everybody does it. Which means everybody competes for the same thing in the same way.<br>Which almost always comes down to who can spend the most.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>What\u2019s Happening On The Front Pages Of Google Is Happening On The Front Pages Of Amazon\u2026 It&#8217;s A Snake Pit!<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Super competitive, ultra-manipulated and near-impossible to break into without massive skill, experience and budget behind you. So where does that leave everybody else?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Where does that leave you when you\u2019ve been working a day job for 10, 20, 30 years and decided enough is enough, time for some freedom?
