Outsourced Linkbuilding

I've been outsourcing my link building for a new site on oDesk for about 2 months now. After 2 months my Market Samurai reports is only showing 6 approved links to my domain so far.

For the first month my outsourced worker was basically doing directory submission and profile link building. Performance seems really low.

Should I be giving it more time to get approved?

Should I be spending my budget on other types of link building aside from directory submissions and profile link building?

I just outsourced another person for social bookmarking and to get some EDU GOV links.

I have an SEO budget of about $800 a month for the next 6 months. Where should I best allocate it?

    You don't get links from directory submissions, what you get is a listing in the appropriate section/category of that directory. Please be aware that some directories (especially FREE ones) can take several weeks if not months for your listings to be approved.

    The most effective link building strategies available today are;

    1. Writing original and high quality articles and then submitting to ezinearticles.com or any other article directories
    2. Finding niche-specific blogs and making relevant and insightful comments
    3. Signing up to various forums and contributing by making useful and captivating comments

    Last but not least, I also offer SEO/SEM services on oDesk and Elance. Please PM me for more consultancy on how to build links effectively.
