It's totally automated and I'm doing it for my website and I'm going to show you.

How Backlinks Help Search Rankings

Search Engine Optimization has two factors. That's in the page itself with keywords, headers and tags, but it's also important to have backlinks, backlinks from authority websites like social media.

But consistent social media activity often gets left off the table. 

➤ This is exactly what this automation sequence is going to fix. 

It's a full backlink creation system going to run on autopilot for all of your existing content. 

You don't have to do anything, and the entire web of backlinks will slowly be stitched together with automations on make.com and the artificial intelligence of ChatGPT. 

It's going to create the content for us, and it will keep a regular schedule of posting to Twitter, Reddit, and other platforms as well.

Automated Content Creation Flow

So let's have a look at the flow. This is what the flowchart looks like in make.

ChatGPT is going to create a summary from our existing content, it'll create the title, it'll format it. It's going to generate a search engine optimized social media post formatted the way we want with a link to the webpage and our ideal keywords in the anchor text.

➤ Without changing anything on your website, this optimized backlink will help you gain traffic from social media and higher rankings in Google.

➤ The benefits stack on each other.

Prerequisites

1. make.com account

2. ChatGPT API key

3. Spreadsheet with your website content details (title and link)

4. Accounts on Twitter, LinkedIn, and Reddit

Steps

Step 1: Prepare Your Website Content

1. Access Your Sitemap:

   • Locate your website sitemap and blog sitemap.

   • Include articles published on platforms like Medium if applicable.

2. Create a Spreadsheet:

   • Gather a list of every page, blog post, or news article about your business.

   • Include columns for the page title and link.

Step 2: Set Up make.com Automations

1. Create Automation Sequences:

   • Twitter Automation:

     • Configure a sequence to post content from the spreadsheet to Twitter. (video)

     • Ensure each tweet includes a backlink to your website.

   • Reddit Automation:

     • Configure a sequence to post content from the spreadsheet to your SubReddit. (video)

     • Ensure each post is detailed and includes a backlink to your website.

2. Automation Flow:

   • ChatGPT will create a summary of your existing content.

   • Generate an SEO-optimized social media post with the ideal keywords in the link anchor text.

   • Post the content to Twitter, LinkedIn, and Reddit with backlinks to your website.

   • Update the spreadsheet with notification and post content.

What Type of Small Business is This For?

➤ So if you owned a dental clinic or you were marketing a website for them or you own a tourism resort or you manufactured covered buildings, it would all be very much the same.

You gather a spreadsheet of all of your pages, your blog posts, and news articles about your business and then you set the automation to begin sharing. All you need is the title and a link to the page and the GPT is going to read your content and then it's going to create a summary that's formatted the way you want including a backlink to your website.

The make automation itself posts the content onto Twitter and then it updates the spreadsheet to let us know that it's been done.

The Reddit post is following along the same sequence but I'm even more excited about what it's been doing.

The summary and Reddit are far longer and that lets us be far more detailed in our search engine optimization and the links back to our website.

Saving Time (Money) with Automation

As I consider how much work these automations are doing, it's easily 15 minutes worth of time for every single tweet and every single Reddit post, maybe more for Reddit.

So that means for these 96 posts, I'm saving about 48 hours of work just by setting up these two simple automations.

At $50 per hour for a social media manager on Fiverr, that equates to $2400 per month - or a cool ➤ ➤ $28,800 in outsourcing fees per year.

Step 3: Running and Monitoring Automations

1. Initial Setup:

   • Run the automation sequences on a set number of pages.

   • For example, my Twitter sequence is now at 88 of 96 pages and the Reddit sequence is now at 32 of 96 pages.

2. Re-run Automations:

   • Once the initial sequences are complete, restart them with new or slightly modified content.

   • Adjust the pace and examples of tweets or posts as needed.

Step 4: Leveraging Social Media for Backlinks

1. Maintain Social Media Activity:

   • Ensure the automation keeps your social profiles active with fresh content daily.

   • Monitor the performance of the posts and adjust as needed.

Step 5: Generating High-Converting SEO Content

1. Content Creation:

   • Plan new blog posts with headers, titles, and keywords.

   • Use a different automation flow to create SEO content crafted in the form of a story.

   • Add these new content pieces to the backlink-generating automation.

Examples of Successful Social Media Posts

We can certainly leverage social media for good backlinks to our website.

Not only does this automation give you backlinks to every single page on your website, but the automation maintains activity on your social media profiles with zero time required.

In other words, these automations act like your own personal AI agent who's creating fresh content for your social media every single day.

➤ Let's take a quick look at some samples to see what these posts actually look like.

So here are some tweets that are just recently posted out an hour ago. It's got a couple views. Here we go, six hours ago, and I really like how the tweet is broken out into a heading and a couple bullet points and then a call to action with a link to the website, so it's fantastic.

I really think it's fantastic and then I'm going in and I'm also getting engagement going where I'm talking to others and replying to people.

Step 6: Real-Life Examples and Monitoring

1. Check Social Media Posts:

   • Review the posts on Twitter and Reddit to ensure they are correctly formatted and include backlinks.

   • Monitor the engagement and traffic generated from these posts.

And now if we go over to our subReddit, here I've just approved this article so I'll click on it and we can see how it's taken the original article and then formatted everything so nicely.

It's broken it into pieces, it's got little bullet points and arrows in there so it's easy to read.

Over time, this whole system takes my spreadsheet and builds that network of backlinks.

➤ It is so important to start automating things for your business, but it's also important to start small and then scale up after you've covered the basics like this.

So in this tutorial, you can see how this automation creates backlinks from Twitter and Reddit automatically, and there's many other social platforms that can be done with this strategy.

Facebook and LinkedIn are the obvious ones to start with.

I've seen others automating Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Pinterest, WordPress, all sorts of SEO scraping content and using ChatGPT to process any number of APIs and RSS feeds into some new and unique content.

Step 7: Scaling and Expanding Automations

1. Start Small:

   • Begin with the basic automation sequences and measure the results.

   • Gradually add more social platforms like Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram, Pinterest, and Wordpress.

2. Continuous Improvement:

   • Adjust the automation sequences based on the results.

   • Keep your content fresh and relevant to maintain SEO effectiveness.

It is an amazing new world but the key is to start off small and then add on to your automations.

➤ Once the basics are running and the results are starting to come in. It'll be natural to think about the next workflows that should be automated.

We all know social media activity is important and when we consider how we also create backlinks to our website that increase our search engine rankings, then these social media automations are creating compound value to our bottom line.

Here's my Google search traffic and the campaigns only started about a month ago, so I'm not really seeing a big change here but I'll be tracking this over time.

We are seeing an increase in the number of searches here and a bunch of first clicks from the search engines to my content. So really nice to see first clicks coming into this content. Here's some first clicks and first clicks and here's some average positions on my search engine rankings right now.

So over time, I'll see definite results on this because we've been tracking it for quite a long time and just started doing these social media automations.
