How to Find Other Authority Websites to Use as Parasites?
It all depends on your keen eye when you search online for your keywords. Sometimes you note that when you search for a specific keyword, a couple of websites are shown on the first page of google and that websites should not be owned by individuals. For example, reddit.com is now owned by any individual. Similarly, californiaherald.com is owned by a company. But you can find that for several keywords, these websites rank even they do not tend to.
The other method is to use an SEO tool like ahrefs.com and start checking out high-authority websites for your keywords. Here are the workaround steps.
1. Put medium.com in Ahrefs site explorer and click go.
2. Check out the list of keywords and their ranks in Ahrefs.
3. Filter the keywords list while putting your keyword in the “include” input box. That will show you only keywords that are related to your keyword and that site is ranking for those.
4. Find out if you get some good keywords related to your niche where your potential parasite is ranking good.
If you find a few pages from that potential parasite and those keywords are related to your niche, this is your guy.
