Stealing comptetitors backlinks is a good Idea?

MikeWike · 11-07-2011, 03:28 AM

I was just wondering, is it normal to get same backlinks? I usually check my competitors backlinks with yahoo backlink checker or majestic seo and start doing backlinks using competitor backlinks.

Thanks.

And for the second question, I would like to ask how to get your backlink to this site? It's seems like PR5 Eventually they (site.como reblogged ....) or it seems like they have bought this backlink?

It's always a great idea if you can get your link on the same page as your compititors specially if they happen to be competitors that are in the top 10 of search results for your keywords. It means those links a very valuable and theyve done all the work for you already in finding effective backlinks.

If you can get backlinks from the same places as your competitors then go for it, nothing wrong with that.

Sometimes it may not be possible to get the same links easily though. For example your competitor may have an established relationship with another site owner, or may even own the other site(!). It's worth trying for the stronger links though.

Use SEO Spyglass to get more backlink data than site expolorer.

You're not "stealing" anything.

Just replicating what's proven and already in place.
