Nothing you do from outside your main domain can penalize your website. This is something Google has made clear to prevent other webmasters from messing with your rankings on purpose. Second, Google will probably not find all of those links in the same day, so they may never know.

People do this all the time. It's fine.

i think that guy is using an automated link building software to get that number of links.. but if a team of link builders is working for him, its a different story.

Hi KoolestNerd,

It's not the number of links but the quality of them. While each link does provide a "vote" for your website for a particular keyword, a Wikipedia link might have about a 10x increase over a unrelated blog post link.

The trick is to get relevant links to your website so that Google can clearly classify your site. Sites are/can be penalized if the spam can be traced back to your site. Especially if your a new domain you run the risk of hitting the sandbox if your link building looks unnatural.

Like the previous poster mentioned it really is all about link diversity. Instead of getting 35,000 spammy links focusing on getting 100 quality backlinks with your anchor text as the keyword linking back to your website.

I guarantee you that more relevant links to your site are much more valued than spammy crappy links.

As mentioned before your links are not going to get indexed on the same day so no worries.

It's a combination of quality, and quantity. I have seen 1 link from a quality site, out rank over a 100 from other various sources. I watched a test....add a link, move to #1, remove that link, slide to #2, whereas the person holding strong at #2 had ONE solid link from DMOZ with their keywords in anchortext within DMOZ.

You can do experiments and every time to check if Google penalized your site.
Use for this purpose the Google penalty detector on seonlinelab.com/google-penalty.php

Just make sure you have alternate achor text.
All backlinks wont be index on the same day just do the above.

Some will say that this will not hurt you. Some say it will hurt you.

I like to be on the safe side and do things a lot slower.

Slow and steady wins the race in my opinion. I would do all linking by hand and take your time.

Besides who wants to be labeled as a spammer.

Spamming might give you a quick boost, but eventually it can catch up to you and decrease your ranking stability for the long term.

Good SEO is a permanent and slow process, requiring concentration and post-analysis. Why one would need such a neckcracking backlinking in one day. All the jump-style activities are not bringing good/stable results in most of the cases.

Koolestnerd, instead of spending a time on posting thousands of backlinks a day, I would suggest you sit and identify the diversity of sources for quality link building and implement them later (that would be very useful time-spending). There are a lot of such sources.

Diversity of quality links, not the amount of them is the most important in SEO-linking nowadays.

PS. As an ultimate goal: find a backlinking method that noone used so far - it will bring the most striking impact ;-)

It depends. There are times where a company like NBC will throw up a site just for a TV promo they are running. In that case, they are going to get a lot of links very quickly. Google, Bing, etc. understands the difference between mentions on social media and blog posts vs. 3,500 comment links (just an example). Realize that A LOT goes into this. Link acquisition, churn, anchor text, surrounding text, placement on site, and MANY more variables are calculated on the fly.. This most definitely isn't a "one size fits all" answer.
