Back-links War

In my quest to build back-links for my website, I've been studying my competition, and I've noticed quite a few of them have back-links from sites like this:

HR 3962
Let's Go Campaign

Very wordy-sites from PR3-PR6

My questions to the warrior community are:

Do you think these back-links are legit? Possibly bought?

Do these sites look like they should be authority sites? How in the world did they get such high PR?

My competition has gotten backlinks from these sites? How do you think they did it?


Thanks,
Ryan

    Oh man I've seen this before, for the keyword 'backinks checker' this one new site came out of nowhere. I took a look at his backlinks and its exactly like those two sites, wonder how they're doing it? Bought high pr domains?

    PR just comes from inbound links - a crap site can have high PR.

    inbound links? interesting, so someone can just write a script to automate all kinds of content in a site and inner link everything to create high pr?

      No - internal links that have no juice are useless. They get PR from sites with existing PR. No incoming links = no juice to spread around.

      It looks like your competition has built it's own high PR link network. With some cash you can do the same thing. Just go to GoDaddy.com auctions and bid on domains that have expired with a 5-6 PR ranking. Win 5-10 auctions (not all are legit PR and the legit ones will end up being between $250 -$1000+) and then set up hosting on geographically diverse IP's (Hostgator has a program exclusively for this) and then add a basic blog and some content.

      Bingo, you've got 10 websites that are PR5+ to put your links on and demolish your competition out of the gate. This is how the big guys do it. You can also lease links on those pages to other people for extra cash.

      I have a feeling Google will re-work their algorithm shortly to determine if the incoming links to your high PR site are landing at the same content/pages which will eliminate this method.

      For a cheaper alternative you can find good high PR link networks in the "Warriors for Hire" section to post your links for between $50-$75/mo

    That's crazy nate, very interesting concept. I'm going to stick with the legit affordable way right now :0 but something to look into for sure.

    @RatRaceWatch, your competition might have acquired a membership with link broker networks where in thousands of links can be acquired, regardless of the PR, for less than a hundred dollar price. And these links are long staying as well, for as long as the site is live. The backlinks you've seen they have might be an affiliated of the link broker network. Example would be the link vine by Brad Callen.

    I really believe google should focus more heavily on fixing their pagerank formula because your situation above makes me very skeptical about those links. Google will probably get to this in time however so its all a matter of waiting.

    As far as I know, PR doesn't -just- come from incoming links.

    This would be another example I found as one of my competitors backlinks. I was going to read an article and leave a comment, and then I noticed there were no comments and links spread throughout the posts, ugh....
