do link exchanges still work?

kenmichaels · 08-25-2011, 10:46 PM

i came across this.
Link Exchange. Free Link Exchange Directory.

have no idea about it. seemed interesting, and old school.

any way, website says its free. maybe someone with a low budget can use it, or a back link master can tell us why its a bad idea

i do software and training stuff, so we do back links the old fashioned way
... we let them come to us. Its slow but solid

Try it and see. Ugly website.

Link exchanges work kind of, but to get any real results you have to do a lot of exchanges, and by then you'll be linking out to so many sites that things will be a mess. Plus you'll have to watch the other websites you exchange with to make sure they don't remove your link, which can be time consuming.

Try getting a couple of the higher rated link packages from Fiverr dot com.

The search engines prefer one-way links. We all the changes they make to their algorithms, especially Google, I wouldn't even go there.

One of my favorite activity is Link Exchange and if you got some links from valuable platform can be really beneficial to drive lot of traffic for your site.

I honestly don't bother exchange links, for some reason is not working for me.

Nothing better than organic traffic

I think they used to work I still do link exchanges only if the site has high PR and is somewhat relatable to my niche.

There is so much misinformation out there and this “SEO myth” is one of the most common ones.
