Too many backlinks in one day?

How many backlinks should I be submitting in one day? What would you warriors say is an appropriate or minimum number necessary to make an impact?

I'm never sure if I'm submitting too many articles or not enough. Am I joining too many websites or not enough?

I've been working on Angela Edwards' backlinks submissions and I encountered a site that told me my email was banned. I had never been to this site before and it kind of worried me. Did I join too many in one day? Is 10 or 12 enough to be considered spamming?? Somehow I doubt it!

Thanks in advance.

Jose

    As for the number of links, check out this site, There, I Fixed It, that was started May 15, 2009 and has 124,000 links as of today. That's roughly 900 day. Don't go over that.

    The point is that you probably don't need to worry about the number of manual links you create in a day. You can't physically create too many. You can create too many and raise red flags with certain automated spamming tools but I don't think you're doing that based on what you said. Ultimately, you would like for your site to be like the one above where it automatically attracts new unsolicited links because people like something about your site.

    As for the profile links, I understand some forum webmasters are trading emails of people who're using various backlink lists.

      This could be a serious breach of privacy. Hope they mention this in their privacy page.

        That was my thought as well when I heard about it, especially since the default privacy statements say that email won't be shared. I'm sure that their justification for it is that it's to combat 'spamming' but that doesn't make it right.

        It's also possible that the forum moderator in question doesn't accept free email addresses. I've seen this from time to time. Others even insist on an ISP email and refuse even legit domain emails. It's kind of lame and stupid since most people prefer to use gmail or other free account rather than an often limited ISP mailbox. If you encounter some control freak like this it's best to move on anyway.

    keep in mind that just because you build a link on a certain day doesn't mean google is going to find it on that day. They may not find it for days, weeks, months or ever. As long as you're not going all black hat and building thousands of links a day I think you'll be ok.

    I do not think that there is any need to worry about the number of backlinks you are getting on a daily basis, if you submitted a real good article thru Article Marketer or some other mass submit service you could quite likely get 1000 or so backlinks the day it is published. And as stated above they may not all be found on the day you submit the article and there will be some sites that will not be spidered until a few days have passed.

    When Google dances and your previously highly ranked page suddenly "disappears," it's easy to jump to a faulty conclusion that something you just did caused it. I think that's what leads some to claim that you can build too many links at one time. I have a site that's been on a roller coaster for the past 3 months in the SERPs, but it always settles out back where it belongs. You just have to keep your head down and keep building links all the time. Depending on how competitive the phrase is you're trying to nail down, you might get there fast or it might take weeks or months or even years. Just don't stop.

    I think what matters is consistency. Imagine one day you get 100s of links and no more for the week. That would raise a flag. But then again, google works in mysterious ways

      YES...I've definitely experienced the Google dance John and I know that it's normal behavior. I'm new to the game so I think I ignorantly freaked a bit. I'm still trying to figure out how to best manage my time with what seems to be an overwhelming amount of options and strategies.

      I now know that I didn't REALLY have anything to worry about regarding the backlink issue.

      Yes Dennis, it was a gmail account. I can try a different gmail to test this. This would be crazy considering the amount of people who use gmail...no?

      So very helpful everyone!

      Thanks for enlightening me!

    Here's what I think on backlink building.

    Manually building backlinks will never be too fast and/or too much. Your competitors could sabotage your website if that is the case. Also, keep in mind how people link to something phenomenal, for example the discovery of actual aliens on Mars. Do you think at least millions of people will link to that particular source that discovered aliens?

    If you are not convinced, then you may try building backlinks as fast as you possibly could, maybe even ask a few friends' help to build these links, to my website. I will gladly let you experiment on the website as much as you want.

    DISCLAIMER: All examples are merely examples only.

      You cant have too many... just another myth.

      Otherwise people would be using that to their advantage spam linking their competition.

      I've done some pretty big link building campaigns various times.. and they have never raised any "Red flags" anywhere....

    I agree with BGM! Why waste time with one website that won't accept a legit email?

    Spam linking the competition! Good point jitter!

    So, after reading all these very helpful posts I will consider adopting a 'too many is just enough' attitude. It's like I'm cranking 'em out like CRAZY here!

    Thanks to all for your help!

    AND...maybe next time I'm on Mars I'll see an alien or two.

      I don't think any of us will be able to humanly do 1000s of manual backlinks a day to raise any red flag to Google so I really don't think there is any problem for you. I am using Angela's backlink service and this is also the same advice she gives to us. She even mentioned we could well put all the packet of 30 links in one day if we want to.
