Thing is, sites with high domain authority usually have pretty vigilant moderators who look through newly created accounts (especially brand new and suspicious ones) and just delete them. Here’s what you need to do in order to run your accounts properly and keep your links in good standing for good. Basically, you need to do whatever possible to keep your profile as natural as possible. Actually, you want it to BE natural.That means you need to fill out all the forms that are applicable for your situation. It goes without saying that I can’t point out all aspects that you’re supposed to keep in mind, but here are the most crucial and ubiquitous ones.
Profile Image
What would you personally think about a website profile without an image or just a dummy one? Remember those “awesome” twitter profiles with dummy egg images? Odds are, you momentarily conclude that they’re some sort of spammy accounts or what not. You don’t want your profile to look that way. That’s exactly why you need a real life mug shot of yourself on your profile page. You can just use your iPhone’s camera (especially if it’s iPhone 5s or higher) to take a nice picture for your profile page. If the platform (site) allows that, you also may want to take a few photos and upload all of them. If there’s an option to create a gallery, just go for it. The bottom line is that you should do whatever a certain site considers possible on their platform. It’s a surefire way to make your profile look and be credible when it comes to imagery.
Personal Data
In case you’re not a secret agent of some kind, you need to, again, fill out all possible forms that the site offers you to. If you are an FBI, CIA or NSA dude, you still need to fill out that sort of forms but just not all of them. Alternatively, you may want to use FakeNameGenerator.com in order to come up with dummy details in a really efficient way.
Phone Number
When it comes to your phone number, you really need to be careful here because giving out your number just like that can backfire real bad in the long run. That said, it’s still ok to fill in that phone number text field if they promise not to use it improperly and if it’s not displayed on your public profile page. At least not to all users but your friends or something along those lines.
Email Address
Most likely, if somebody visits your page, he or she will be able to get in touch with you via the platform (site) itself. So, you should be really cautious when you add your email address in the public area of your account. If that address is visible on your profile page (which is not usually the case), you don’t really want to specify your address in that particular case. If there’s no way to create an account if you omit your email address and it’s displayed in public, be sure to specify your dummy email address that you created specifically for making that sort of accounts. Doing so ensures that you won’t be spammed with all sorts of promotions you don’t really need.
Updates
That’s probably the trickiest part out there. Once you’re done with creating your accounts, you’re supposed to keep them fresh because it does not really add any value to the sites where you keep them and generally just doesn’t make any sense for you as a user either. Plus your account may be deleted just because of its inactivity.
Should you be willing to do so and have a lot of spare time on your hands, you can keep your profile updated on your own. That means liking, sharing, posting all sorts of updates and so on. That’s surely one way to do that and if you like that, go for it by all means.
If you can’t really afford that for some reason or another, you can just hire a virtual assistant who will keep all your accounts nice and fresh. You can send your updates to that person and he or she will update your accounts as you see fit. Alternatively, you may also want to make it partially autopilot. In that case, you can just explain to your virtual assistant what kind of activities you expect from him on a regular basis and the industry your updates should be about. Other than that, you might want to be sending him your hand-picked updates on a regular basis as well. That would make your accounts both fresh and to the point.
Conclusion
The VA approach makes it possible to run tons of accounts on high domain authority sites without the risk of those accounts being shut down sooner or later. If you keep them refreshed and properly updated, site moderators won’t have any legit reasons to remove your accounts and links.
