Introduction What will I learn in this manual?

This easy to follow user guide was written to guide you through the process of installing,

activating, configuring and using the Backlink Energizer WordPress Plugin.

Backlink Energizer was written for novice and advanced users in mind. Whether you are a

WordPress genius or you have never installed or used a WordPress Plugin before, this guide will

show you in an easy to follow, step-by-step format, how to get the most out of this powerful

software.

What is an index cluster?

A cluster is a group of web 2.0 sites (or your own WordPress blogs) which link back to a page you

want to get indexed.

If you’ve spent any time learning about Internet marketing, you will already know that you need

backlinks. Without them, you’re practically invisible to Google.

The problem most people face is that when they build backlinks, it can take months for Google

to index them, if at all. While your backlink is hidden away from Google, your site will not

benefit from better rankings that increased backlinks can deliver.

For example: If you’re building profile backlinks (a popular method of creating message board

profiles with links back to your own website), your profile could be one of thousands on that

particular message board. It could take Google months to index your profile page. That’s a LOT

of time to wait for just ONE backlink to be indexed.


What is Backlink Energizer?

Backlink Energizer is a simple to use WordPress plugin which helps to increase the visibility of

your backlinks. It combines the power of link-wheels and the automation of autoblogging into

one push-button process that turbo-charges your backlinking efforts.

In a nutshell, Backlink Energizer builds backlinks to your backlinks – in doing so, it increases their

visibility and helps to get them indexed faster. The quicker your backlinks are indexed, the more

“link juice” your money site has. Which in turn means higher rankings.


Before Installing

It is important to note that Backlink Energizer is not designed to work with other WordPress plugins.

Backlink Energizer is a standalone solution, designed to improve the power of your backlinks.

You should install Backlink Energizer on a fresh WordPress blog which is hidden from search engines.

This blog can be on its own domain and hosting, on a subdomain, or in a subfolder.

This new WordPress blog is essentially used as an admin panel for energizing your backlinking

campaigns – there will be no posts, pages or other information on your WordPress blog.

Installation We're starting the installation process with the understanding that you have

installed a fresh, new, never before used, wordpress blog on your hosting account

[free Wordpress.com sites won't work ]. We recommend for cost savings, to

install a fresh new blog into a subfolder of an existing domain, however; if you

have existing dormant domains you want to use - you are free to use those as

well.

For steps on setting up new wordpress blog installs in subfolders and / or

subdomains - please refer to the video tutorials at the following link


Log in to your WordPress admin panel (usually yoursite.com/wp-admin) with

your administrator username and password.

When you log in, you will be taken to the WP Dashboard.

Located in the left sidebar menu, you will see the PLUGINS menu entry.



Click the downward arrow to expand the PLUGINS menu.

Click ADD NEW, this will take you to the Install Plugins page which looks like this:

Towards the top of the page, you will see 6 links: Search, Upload, Featured,

Popular, Newest & Recently Updated.

Click UPLOAD, the page will now look like this:

Click BROWSE, this will open a “File Upload” window. Locate the plugin zip file on

your computer’s hard drive and click OPEN


* Please NOTE ... it is imperative to upload the proper .zip file here. The main

download file contains multiple files including the actual plugin file. Be sure you

are uploading the file named energizerplugin.version#xx.zip into your

wordpress blog in this step.

Click INSTALL NOW, you will be taken to this page:

Click ACTIVATE PLUGIN, you should see the following:


Congratulations, you have successfully installed Backlink Energizer – in the next

step, you will sign up to some web 2.0 sites, ready to start Energizing your

backlinks.

To UPGRADE from a previous version of the Backlink Energizer plugin, locate the

plugin from the Plugins page (shown above). Check the box next to Backlink

Energizer and click DELETE. Once the plugin is deleted, install the new version as

detailed above.

Please visit the video tutorials for the Upgrade / Update steps if you need a

visual aid for this process.

Registering web 2.0

Accounts Before you start using the plugin, you will need to sign up to a few web 2.0 sites –

Backlink Energizer is compatible with the following web 2.0 sites:

- WordPress.com

- TypePad.com

- Blogger.com

- LiveJournal.com

- Tumblr.com

- Multiply.com

- Xanga.com

- Posterous.com

If you bought BLISS Cluster Paks, we have done all the hard work for you – there

will be no need to register for each web 2.0 site manually. You can skip this

section and all the hard work ... and go right to the Import Cluster section.

If you haven’t yet purchased your BLISS Cluster Paks, you can do so at this link:

www.backlink-energizer.com/bliss2/

If you’d prefer to sign up for each web 2.0 site yourself, you may do so –

instructions are included in this section.

However; before you do we really think you should watch the video on the

cluster site import feature and see if creating those web 2.0 sites and accounts

is worth all the effort - when you can do it all in a few clicks! Watch the video

labeled Cluster Site Import.

http://www.backlink-energizer.com/bliss2/



It is not essential to register for all web 2.0 sites in order for Backlink Energizer to

work – providing there is one or more web 2.0 account (including your own self

hosted WordPress sites) for Backlink Energizer to post to.

Once you have registered, and entered the necessary details to give the plugin

access to these accounts – building backlinks is a simple as pushing a button.

Import Cluster To save you time, we offer a service where we create BLISS Clusters for you. To

find out more about our BLISS Cluster Paks click the following link: www.backlink-

energizer.com/bliss2/

Once you have your cluster.txt file, importing is easy.

In the WP Admin Dashboard, locate the Energizer plugin settings menu

Click IMPORT CLUSTER


Click BROWSE, this will open a “File Upload” window. Locate the cluster.txt file on

your computer’s hard drive and click OPEN




Click IMPORT

Backlink Energizer will automatically import the cluster file and populate the

database with a set of web 2.0 accounts. We install the URLs to the blogs we're

posting to – so there is no need to keep a spreadsheet of URLs and passwords.


Self Hosted

WordPress (SHWP) Backlink Energizer allows you to automatically post content on one or even up to

10, of your own hosted WordPress blogs. You can choose to post ONLY to SHWP

blogs without using any web 2.0s, or a combination of SHWP and Web 2.0's, or

just Web 2.0s. Maximum flexibility.

First, you will need to enable remote posting on the destination blog.

You can view a video on setting up Self Hosted WordPress sites here:

http://www.backlink-energizer.com/blenergizertutvids.html alternatively, read on

for full details.

Log in to the destination blog’s WordPress admin panel (usually

yoursite.com/wp-admin) with your administrator username and password.

When you log in, you will be taken to the WP Dashboard.

http://www.backlink-energizer.com/blenergizertutvids.html


Located in the left sidebar menu, you will see the SETTINGS menu entry.

Click the downward arrow to expand the SETTINGS menu.

Click WRITING, this will open the Writing Settings page which looks like this:



Place a checkmark next to XML-RPC, this will allow the Backlink Energizer to post

to the destination blog.

Click SAVE CHANGES

Once you have done so, simply enter the necessary details on the plugin’s SHWP

Sites page:

Domain: This is the domain on which your WordPress blog is hosted (i.e.

yoursite.com – do not include http:// or any slashes.) If your blog is installed on a

subdomain/add-on domain – you should use the following format:

subdomain.domain.com

Folder: This is the folder in which your WordPress blog is installed (i.e. blog – do

not include any slashes) If your blog is installed on its own domain without a

subfolder, leave this blank.

Username: You may use your administrator username (i.e. admin)*

Password: Enter your password here.

* You may also set up a new user with contributor privileges

Click TEST.

IMPORTANT: Your Self Hosted WordPress Blogs must have the XML-RPC feature

enabled first before they will test GREEN




Click SAVE.

TIP: You should turn off commenting on your Self Hosted WordPress blogs

TIP: Your Self Hosted WordPress blogs should be visible to search engines.

Screenshot below.


Test post Now that you have configured the plugin, it is a good idea to create a test post.

This will be the first post on each of the accounts – and will ensure they are

configured correctly.

To write a test post, locate the Energizer plugin menu on left navigation menu.

Click TEST POST



Enter a title for your test post and write a couple of paragraphs.

Click TEST

It may take a few moments for the test post to appear on all your web 2.0 sites.

Check each account to ensure the test post was successful.

IMPORTANT NOTE: CRON is not used when creating a test post, therefore the

test post will not place any backlinks on your web 2.0 sites. Test Post is used

simply to test the posting and connectivity between the web 2.0 and SHWP sites

installed to make sure we can get content on the sites properly.

ADVANCED TIP: If you want to create a test post with backlinks included, you

can do so by manually running the Cron Job – video details here:


Now that you have configured and tested the Backlink Energizer plugin with your

web 2.0 site, there is one last step you need to take before you are ready to begin

using it to build backlinks.



Setting up a CRON JOB A cron job is a server process which enables users to schedule scripts to run

automatically at a certain time or date. The Backlink Energizer plugin uses cron

jobs to automatically post posts and backlinks to your web 2.0 sites.

To set up a cron job, locate the Energizer plugin menu on left navigation menu.

Click MAIN CONFIG



Notice the Cron box at the bottom, copy the text (highlighted below) to your

clipboard*


* The highlighted text will be different on your own server – just remember to

only copy the text from /usr… to …/cron.php (inclusive) – but skip the 0 * * * *

In a new browser tab/window, log into CPANEL on your hosting account. Usually,

yoursite.com/cpanel

You will be asked for your username and password. Once you enter them, you will

be redirected to CPANEL.

Scroll down to locate the CRON JOBS icon:

Click CRON JOBS.

You will be taken to a page which looks like this:


There are only two settings you need to change.

Common Settings: Select “Once an hour”

Command: Paste the text you copied from the cron box earlier here

Click ADD NEW CRON JOB

You can now log out of CPANEL

ADVANCED TIP: If you have multiple blogs, and in turn multiple cron jobs

running – we recommend using http://www.setcronjob.com to manage them.

http://www.setcronjob.com/


Full details can be found on our tutorial videos page here: http://www.backlink-

energizer.com/blenergizertutvids.html




Using Backlink

Energizer Now that you have configured the plugin and set up your cron job, you are ready

to begin using the plugin to begin building your backlinks.

In the WP Admin Dashboard, locate the Energizer plugin settings menu

Click MAIN CONFIG



Here is a brief rundown of each setting:

Enable: This checkbox is used to enable the cluster – it is best to leave it off until

you have set everything else up and tested that it is working

Notify email: Enter a valid email address here. Backlink Energizer will use this to

notify you it has completed processing your links.

Auto restart: If checked, once Backlink Energizer finishes posting all links in the

database it will begin reposting from the top of the list.

If you purchased the BLISS Cluster Paks - you should have received a file named

blisscluster.zip in addition to the web 2.0 sites for importation. Inside the

blisscluster.zip file are several .txt files containing 100's of rss feeds you can use,

as well as matching keywords ... all to make Energizer as turnkey as possible. If


you don't already have the BLISS Cluster Paks - save hours of time and hassle

and go here to gets yours now.


Feeds: Paste 10-15 FULL TEXT RSS feeds in this box - these are used to generate

post content. For best results, ensure the feeds are on the same topic. When

pasting feeds, ensure each feed is on a new line – the posts generated will appear

on the web 2.0 sites complete with backlinks. You should not use YOUR

Commercial Intent $$$ Niche related rss feeds [ supplied as bonus items in Bliss

Paks ]

Keywords: Enter keywords related to the topic of the feeds (one per line). You

should NOT user your Commercial Intent $$$ sites keywords here - use as many

as you can but < 250 [ supplied as bonus items in Bliss Paks ]

Links per post: This determines how many links Backlink Energizer will attach to

the bottom of each post (max 5 recommended when posting to web 2.0 sites -

higher maximums are possible if posting ONLY to your SHWP blog networks.)

Posts per day: This determines how many times Backlink Energizer should post

per day* (max 12 recommended when posting to web 2.0 sites - higher

maximums are possible if posting ONLY to your SHWP blog networks.)

* The maximum number of posts per day possible is 24, however, it is

recommended you do not exceed 12 posts per day.

Feed Source Url: When checked, Backlink Energizer places a link back to the

source of the RSS feed content – this setting may help you comply with the TOS of

certain RSS Feeds - Recommended ON/Checked

Once you have filled in each section, click SAVE

Next, in the WP Admin Dashboard, locate the Energizer plugin settings menu



Click ENERGIZE LINKS



This is where you add (PASTE) links to the URLs/backlinks you want to get

indexed/energized, one per line. Add as many links here as you want.

NOTE: You should only use raw URLs, no anchor text or html. (For example:

http://www.yoursite.com is acceptable, <a href=”www.yoursite.com”>My

Site</a> is not acceptable)

Click ADD

The links will be added to a database and will be processed from the top of the list

down. Once posted, they are removed from the “To Post” list and are marked as

“processed”


That’s it, once you’re happy that you’ve completed the process above – go back

to the Config screen and ensure that ENABLE is checked. This will start the

process and populate your web 2.0 sites with automatically generated content

from the RSS feeds, complete with the backlinks you added on the links page.

ADVANCED TIP: As you begin to add more backlinks to the system, it is

recommended that you randomize your lists. For example, if you are scaling up

your list of backlinks to over 500 links per day, it makes sense to randomize. We

have found http://www.random.org/lists/?mode=advanced to be very useful.

Paste your list of backlinks into the text box and use the As Bare-bones text

document option to randomize your list of backlinks.

http://www.random.org/lists/?mode=advanced


Status Report The last feature of the Backlink Energizer plugin is the status report page which is

accessible by clicking STATUS REPORT on the Energizer settings menu

The page looks like this:

This section is for information only, it is not possible to re-order or edit the list of

pending/posted links from this section. You can copy-paste from this page for

your own records, for tracking and for re-ordering your backlinks via the Energize

Links page.

Links added: This is the number of links you have added on the LINKS page, yet to

be processed

Links complete: This is the number of links which have been processed


WARNING: Clear links will clear all the statistics and links in the system

permanently. If you click this button, you will have to re-add your backlinks.

Before clicking this button, make sure you copy and paste your links into a text

file. We are not responsible for saving your backlinks lists.
