How would you know if a home page text link is cheap or expensive?

Kaizen Ninja · 10-21-2010, 09:28 AM

Hi, I was invited to buy home page text links from sites with page ranks from 2 - 5 in different topics. But the problem is, I'm not sure if I'm buying them in the right price? Thanks in advance!

what are you buying them for?
to make money on sales right away?
or to strengthen your search ranks?

hard to say what your goals are, id look at how much the cost is, can you spread it over a time period and quantify it someway? like ill make this back in 6 months or something? it might make the decision easier

Hmmmmm, and how many people are they selling links to? How long will they have PR with their sales strategy?

Is it really that hard for you to find high PR blogs, forums, and websites to add links to?

I'd recommend you spend the money on Market Samurai, use the promotion module, and find places to build back links on for free.

Typically you will look at PR and alexa score. Also, I want GA access. This is hard to get though, because many sites have a lot less traffic than they claim on their wrapper. Try to figure out what your percent conversion is. Then calculate how much money the link will make for you.
