Too many backlinks?

Hi everyone. I have just started my internet marketing campaign. I have one website that I think is in a good niche with a lot of searches and low to medium competition. One of my keywords is already ranking on page 1 of google after about 5 days.

I have built about 12 backlinks to it via social bookmarking sites and a few relative blog comments. I have read several times in several different places that making too many backlinks at once is a surefire way to get your website sandboxed by google. Is this true?

If so, what is a safe number of backlinks to acquire on a daily basis? I want to do more to promote my website and get the ball rolling, however I want it to be a natural growth. So if anyone could give me some kind of blueprint for link building the right way that would be great.

I know all the places to get backlinks and I could probably get 50 to 100 a day if I worked at it, however I don't want to do anything to upset google or get my site sandboxed.

Can anyone clarify for me?



Thanks,



Jacob Martus

  • hello,

    The most important thing is to continue building links and everything should be ok.
    It should look natural. Avoid building lots of links one week and other week just one link or so, and don't build only the same type of links. Hope this helps.

  • Are you using a tool to find where your page is located or are you manually checking? Your page might have dropped out of the top 100, it could be on page 23, you can't actually see it unless you set your tool to search that deep.

    Google will push new content to the front of the SERPs but will then drop it down to its true position. This is not the Sandbox.

    Check if your site is indexed using site:domain.com or by using Google Webmaster Tools. If it is till there then you are cool bananas. It is extremely unlikely that you links got you deindexed.
