I recently purchased market samurai and have been using it to check on my competition as well as sniff out great places to build links. I had my main keyword entered in and was looking through the competition and their backlink sources and was noticing a ton of PR 0 links.

I finished looking at the sites that had Backlinks in the single digits and decided to look at some with a larger set of Backlinks 100+. I click on the site in pos# 5 and I notice that 70-80 of the links are from the same site. I thought this was kinda wierd and went to check the website only to discover that it was my own site lol.

That was a nice surprise. Now I'm sure this is just my site doing a bit of the ol google dance but there was something interesting about this blog that I needed to check out because if I remembered correctly I did not post 70-80 comments on the same blog When I get to the site I do a little snooping and check on pages that have backlinks. I couldnt find any direct links to my website in the form of my keywords with a .com or embedded text links (mind you im just eyeballing it im not very tech savvy).

So I scratched my head and continued to navigate between various pages and try to see if some of my content was posted on this blog...nope. Well I gave up, and as I'm about to leave what do you think I notice? My user ID which of course has a link to my website is in this little box with a thanks under it!

So I navigate back to some of the other pages and what do you know that box is on all the pages or at least enough of them to get me excited. This is probably some plugin or something on wordpress that everyone and their mother knows about (but I'm a total newb and don't know lol) but hey its definitely something I'm going to look into.

Now I did notice that there were several names above mind and I was the 2nd to last on the list; however, one thing I'm curious about is whether I will lose the backlinks if I am no longer in that thanks box thingie? How does it work?

Even if the links disappear over time (which can happen with backlinks I'm sure) I am still excited because of how easy it was to get up to the top 5 in the SERP. I am going to focus on my backlink strategy for this site now that I have an idea that with a little work its possible for me to reach my goals.

Well thanks for reading this thread and putting up with my newbishness
Any comments, information, or slaps upside the head are greatly appreciated lol.

P.S. Market Samurai totally kicks butt and takes names
