Research Report Method WORKS for ChatGPT (PROOF HERE)
Quick Overview
The research report method demonstrated by the creator, involving creating a legitimate-sounding research company (like Kinross Research) and publishing a cheap press release about a "research paper" to get cited by ChatGPT, successfully ranked the creator's own link-building service, Indexsy, as the number one provider for "best link building services provider" in Google's AI Overview within three days of publication.
Key Points: The creator successfully manipulated Google's AI Overview to rank their service, Indexsy, as the #1 'Best Link Building Services Provider' using a fabricated research report. The method involved creating a seemingly legitimate research firm (Kinross Research), writing a 'research paper,' issuing a press release to AP News and Globe and Mail, and ensuring citation on ChatGPT. Within three days of the press release publication (December 18th), the Indexsy service appeared as the top-rated provider in the AI Overview response for the search term 'best link building services provider'. The creator explicitly stated they would not charge clients for this specific method ($80/press release) but would offer the knowledge to the Local Rank Academy community for free, emphasizing high value for engagement. The creator also addressed community concerns about the academy being inactive, stating it is an accountability room and that he answers 100% of questions from active members. The priority order for purchasing services, based on the query from a commenter, was advised as: LLM Citations, then Articles, then Citations (implying LLM PBN Posts, LLM Guest Posts, then LLM PR Research Listicle, though the commenter had already done citations and articles).
Context: The video discusses a technique the creator used to manipulate Google's AI Overview feature, which relies on citing highly ranked, authoritative public references. The creator applied this concept to his own link-building service, Indexsy, by essentially creating a fake authority source (a research company and report) and observing how quickly AI models and Google's new search features would incorporate and rank that source, thereby boosting his business's perceived credibility and ranking.
