I'm interested in outsourcing my link building efforts. For every website I build.

I do not have the time or the energy to do the link building myself.

I want to pay someone to build quality backlinks to my site to boost my serps.

I see many offers saying 6,000 or 10,000 backlinks probably via automated software...to an extent I don't mind this, but for the most part not my style. I want NATURAL link building to be done for me.

I had a look around the warriors for hire section, and most link building services offered are not by reputable enough warriors in my opinion.

Does anybody have any recommendations on how I can go about RELIABLY outsourcing my link building needs on a semi regular basis?

    Unfortunately due to the "rule 7" enforcement, it is now impossible to see who ran reputable link building products/services through WSO thread feedback. Thats a kick in the nuts for marketing folks for me as it means there is more potential for poor service.

    It's worth noting your sites will only attract quality back links if they contain quality content and in this instance quality is as defined by the link curator of the page from which you are seeking the link.

    The only way poor quality sites secure links from pages perceived as quality due to their PR is through any one of the many techniques that fall outside Google's guidelines.

    So to answer your question, if you are realistic about your site's content and honest with yourself about its quality you are in a strong position to select a link builder. This is because if you know your content is poor quality, then the only people who will offer to build links for you without mentioning this fact are link spammers. A genuine link builder will draw your attention to the poor quality of the site and explain why genuine natural link building will be difficult.

      You should not trust those 5000, 10000 profile backlinks building sites. They simply don't work.

      There are some reputable sites that do directory submission and so on.

      But for the rest I would do it myself or hire someone reputable with proven customer testimonials.

    How about hiring a virtual assistant to do the link building for you - that way you have some control of where you link to.

    There's a guy in another thread saying his site's rankings dropped after getting 2000 backlinks from a backlinking service he got from WF.

    Thanks for the input.

    Thanks REDEVO this is true. Which is why I want to avoid the 2000-5000 backlink crap out there.

    Natural link building grows over time...I'm impatient lol. But the truth is that links from web 2.0, forum sig POSTING(not profile links), and links from content sites like blogs, personal websites, and articles seem to be the only legit quality backlinks to get. And seems to me to be the most natural method of link building.

    Hard to find someone that builds backlinks naturally for me.

    I'm not a fan of the "push button" or "profile links" style of backlinking.

      Like I said, true natural links will only be possible if your have linkworthy content. Other than that you will be stuck with getting links using the techniques you have outlined.

      This is the way to go. Join a forum, make decent contribution for about a month, get post count up, build trust, then start a detailed post about your niche! And It will be a quality backlink.

    Check out his feedback in the thread and you will see. They can do lots of things, including manually placing your links in profiles, forums and what ever. Prices are very reasonable too.

      It's called link spamming and could hurt you in the long run :confused:

        By some, maybe. Others just call it building back links. As long as you leave a post that ads value to the blog or forum, then I fail to see how that can be considered spam. It is no more spam than to write dozens or hundreds of articles to post to EZA or the other directories can be considered spam. Or do you consider article marketing spam too?

        To each his/her own.

          You said you paid someone to post in forums and create profiles for you, that's hardly leaving valuable comments and adding value, it's spam.

          If you add value that's fine

    Hello, Please hire someone who knows whats He doing. He should be good at one method of promotion first then moving on to other techniques. So for example if using forum marketing, then build links from multiple sites back to your blog or hub pages.

    The key is to build 1-2 links from each forum only. The more ip diversity the better it will help your blog in the rankings.


    Please let me know any questions.

  • I really feel badly for people that still think those systems actually work,

    #1 realize that Google employs more PHD's in math and physics than Nasa... Figuring out manipulative linking patterns is not a difficult task for them by any stretch of the imagination.

    #2 Read over the info on my webpage, I am not trying to sell you anything,etc, in fact I forbid that you give me money >>> Just read it over and help yourself with a little better info.

    Yo, I have been outsourcing SEO to the Philippines, have about 30 people on board on one of the projects. I don't trust any SEO companies as have had bad experiences in the past. Would never go back there....

    What I do is I give my manager the tasks for the team for the week. The tasks encorporate all the link building which needs to be done and what targets I expect from each member. The team manager (who has the best knowledge on SEO) goes away and guides them to do their specific jobs and takes a daily report from each on what they achieved. Then at the end of the week the reports are sent to me, I review them and make recommendations. This works however it relys on good people which is very hard to find. If you can find one good person who can do a great job then you can have them manage the rest while you communicate with him.

    Only real problem with outsourcing though is that you find alot of people who want to take shortcuts and if you don't check then you can get in some real trouble. We outsourced SEO for a big site of ours only to find 2 months down the track that our email had been banned from the ISPs because of spam and we were screwed as a result. If you outsource you must keep track of progress and reports otherwise it can go very peershaped.

    As for the 6000 link services...Not worth it if you want your site to actually rank. There untargetted, spammy, uncontrolled and are not worth any money at all in my experience.

    Well, I suppose there are many Warriors who could do this type of work. I do this kind of manual linkbuilding for corporate clients every day. It involves a lot more than blog links or article writing though. It's more of a total SEO strategy, starting with 'basic' SEO like directory submissions, article submissions and maybe Web2.0 and the like (which really doesn't help much on it's own).

    The majority of the time is spent contacting other webmasters, bloggers and magazines and talking to them about linking in one way or another to the clients website.

    This kind of SEO is typically reserved for companies with big budgets as it costs them $200 an hour.

    So, yeah, I could do this work and do consider offering it as a service, but how many IM'ers are willing to pay even a tenth of the going rate?

    How much would you pay pr. hour? $5, $10, $25, $50 or more?

    I just don't see most IM'ers willing to pay for real manual linkbuillding.

    To tell you the truth 90 out of 100 people you find will steal your money or not do the job correctly. It will take you a long time to find someone good. The problem is even if they do a good job once, that is the ice breaker every job after they will screw up so be very careful.

    If you are interested in strictly natural white hat link building there are very few people who do that. Difference with white hat link building is that it helps to know some details about your site. If you are uncomfortable with doing that in an open forum send me a PM and I may be able to point you in the right direction
