Bounce rate is factored higher in the algo than backlinks I think. I put up a tube on March 21, 2013 on Smutnode and kinda forgot it was there while I was loading other tubes on my own hosting using the Nubiles script. The tube had only one backlink - PR0. The domain is only 9 months old.
Thought I'd check the stats and I almost shit myself. Tube had ramped up to x,xxx views a day when I reviewed traffic stats and I was and still am #1 in google for the EMD beating out Pornhub, xnxx, xvideos for the search term. I am #3 and #7 for other KW variations on the 3 word domain name. I just moved it to my own hosting this week and am dripfeeding it backlinks from my own network. This isn't a Smutnode testimonial. I don't have any other tubes there. I was testing their service.
