I'm Looking For Linkvana Feedback

Mike Bogowski · 12-09-2008, 05:31 PM

Hey Guys,

I am currently looking at options for streamlining my link building process that doesn't require keeping tabs on 5 indian outsourcers!

Can anyone here using Linkvana give me some good genuine feedback on what the service is like? Is it worth the $147 per month?

Any feedback will be much appreciated

Cheers

Have you tried the search fuction-- http://www.warriorforum.com/internet...s-reviews.html

I've used it for about 4 months now and I'm seeing some very positive results. Using just Linkvana and ArticleMarketingAutomation.com I've put a few sites on the first page for some decently competitive keywords.

ildarius · 12-09-2008, 07:37 PM

Bah, not bad I guess... The nice part is the automation, the bad part is that you don't know where it's being posted.

Some blogs are pretty sweet though PR 4+, make sure to use it a lot though, it IS expensive.

zoobie · 12-09-2008, 07:48 PM

linkvana is expensive .... I won't invest on it until I am making at least 1K per month

Actually you can see the backlinks from Linkvana if you are using it for Wordpress sites at your sites WP dashboard.

I've been using Linkvana for a couple months now and am being very careful about having it submit my posts every other day. The good thing is that it should keep my sites from getting sand boxed, the bad thing is that at $147.00 per month, it is pretty expensive.

The other thing I wonder about is the quality of the back links. For example, if I go to one of my sites WP dashboard and click on that backlink, you will see that they are all coming from really funky basically spam junk blogs that no one would ever bother going to. So the argument is that those blogs have minimimum PR2. Well, maybe the home pages do, but I can tell you that all the internal pages to those blogs are PR0. So that makes me wonder if Linkvana is worthwhile? Anyone else want to chime in with this?

Thanks
Steve

Set up Google Alerts for the domain(s) you're linking to and you'll see where your article snippets are posted and at the same time you get an idea about how quickly Google finds your links. Most of my links were found after 1-2 days by Google. So for me LV is worth the money when it comes to building backlinks for your sites.

The only thing I'm not happy about is their outsourcing function. They claim to work only with US writers but after reading what is produced I'm wondering if that's really the work of writers whose first language is English!?
Typos, wrong interpretation of keywords, grammatical errors, using the wrong words (patients instead of patience to give just one example),... So when you use outsourcing be sure to check your posts before submitting it to the queue.

It's however not a real big issue for me as most of these blogs are not read and are only built for backlinking purposes. Nevertheless I still want properly written content out there even it's only $2 a piece.

I think it is awesome. It absolutely works no doubt and price is relative.

Since I started using Linkvana just a couple months ago, that is good to know James. Have you checked out that WSO for NextGen Links yet? If so, what do you think about it? It looks promising if they can continue to increase their user base and will be a lot less work to use than Linkvana and a lot less expensive. I just joined it yesterday.

Thanks

Have not seen it Steven but I will check it out.

(Since I use Linkvana outsourcing I find it easy to use and very customizable).

I am not worried about the cost because it keeps quality higher.

Does the $2 cost per Linkvana article include copying and pasting the articles into their system, or do you still have to do that yourself?

No typo's with my articles. I have 4 different writers I outsource my 100 word articles to for 40 to 50 cents per article. I send them the lists of keywords and they send the articles back to me with the keyword(s) underlined in both the title and the article so I can link it quickly. I still have to take the time to upload them to Linkvana though. 3 writers are in the US and 1 is in England.

all done for you Steve!

Adam Jackson · 01-10-2009, 09:46 AM

Linkvana flat out works for me. There is one particular keyword phrase, no matter how hard I tried, could not get to the first page of google. This phrase has millions of competitors. I purchased 30 posts to be written and posted slowly with Linkvana. Within 2-3 months not only did it hit the first page, it was #1 and has stayed there. Made a believer out of me.

Very cool cuz posting them myself takes quite a bit of time.

Great! Its encouraging for me to know that Linkvana is working that well for you. I'm starting to see some stuff with my sites. Got a PR2 on one home page and PR1 after only a month using Linkvana. I'm doing lots of deep linking too. When you did that 30 article thing, did you link ALL of the articles to your home page or deeplink?

A couple questions please...

1) As far as deep linking with Linkvana, you don't link your posts to your contact, privacy, earnings, disclaimer pages do you?

2) And do you suggest we build our contact, privacy, earnings disclaimer pages with no-follow, no-index tags?

Steve

Michael Ashbourne · 01-10-2009, 03:50 PM

LinkVana really works for me as well. I don't use it on just one site but rather have it pumping out links to my entire repertoire. If you have many sites/projects, being able to manage them all in one place is really nice.

It is not a quick fix though. Most of my sites take a month or more to start seeing results. I started to combat that by doing some social bookmarking campaigns early on to boost them up then have LinkVana kick in to hold them up.

Hope that helps.

penlib · 01-25-2009, 03:25 PM

you can try resellergo, for free, to get some backlinks from directories.

it's a bit cumbersome to use but it's free and it works

Don't worry too much about the quality of the posts. Your audience will never read them anyway.

This is just to get backlinks

vstar650 · 01-30-2009, 03:34 PM

Over the past few years I've tried many linking services and None have ever performed as well as LinkVana, In Fact I've suffered some set backs while using other services

For me, there is nothing better or easier than LinkVana, I have found a great writer who's charging me Only 0.50 cents per 100 word post

What I have been doing (and is working extremely well) for each project is... submit 100 posts and have them delivered at the rate of 1 every 3rd day, that way I can Set-and-Forget for an entire Year

Honestly, LinkVana Kicks Ass!

magentawave · 01-31-2009, 02:29 PM

It took a while to kick in but Linkvana is working well for me now too. I just started using NextGen Links a few weeks ago too. Its a lot less money than Linkvana.

I've used elance.com and bizreef.com but there are a whole bunch more too. Anyone else want to share good sites for posting projects to bid?

SeattleSteve · 02-09-2009, 03:56 PM

LinkVana works great!

You will see my name (Steve Tytler) on the sales page as a testimonial.

I was one of the beta testers and I am still using it today.

It works great and I've been able to get some top 10 ranking on very
competitive keyword phrases on Google.

Is it expensive?

That depends.

If you are making less than $1K per month online, it's probably too expensive for you.

But if you are a SERIOUS Internet marketer, it is awesome!

I use their outsource program and pay $2 per post. As I said in my testimonial on their home page, I've always known that backlinks are very important but I was always too busy (or lazy) to do the work to make it happen.

At $147 per month plus $2 per post, you could easily spend $300-500 per month ... but if you are MAKING MONEY on the sites that you are promoting that's pretty cheap for high quality search traffic on Google, etc.

As I said, if you are newbie starting out, Linkvana is NOT for you because you probably are not making enough money to make it worth your while.

But once you get to the point where you can afford to spend a couple hundred dollars per month (or more) I highly recommend it.

It is a tool, it is not a "magic bullet" but it really works!

BTW, notice that I am NOT including my affiliate link in this post.
