I'll be upright honest with you friend. Not all people selling links are scammers. Do check out my website (click my signature) if you want to buy reasonably good backlinks at affordable prices.

Hello,

I am also a newbie and i am doing some of the free tools like IBP which is giving me some good results but you can go for Back link Checker Utility which i came to know that also a good one, which can help you out.

Well you pays your money and you take your chances.....

If you are really worried about getting scammed the best thing for you to do is buy some tools and build the links yourself. That way you will know exactly what you are getting. This is especially true if you are planning a bunch of sites. It can get pretty expensive if you are outsourcing all that linkbuilding.

While there are people out there that will scam you I would say most deliver what they say they will. The biggest problem is understanding ahead of time what that exactly is going to be. Some of the threads selling links are a bit misleading if you are not familiar with linkbuilding so what happens the expectations and the results do not match.

The best thing to do when trying out a new link provider is go for the small package first and then do a good check and see if what they gave you is worth what you spent. If not then you try somebody else, if so you can move up to a bigger package.
