I was doing some competitor research into their back links and they had 600.
Not that many I know but 300-400 were from brownbook.net. they have multiple business listings but the links all point back to this one site. Are all these links counting towards their page rank or are they spinning their wheels. They are the page one position one listing for carpet cleaning los angeles so im sure they are competing with at least 50 sites. What the heck

    That's a good thing because they won't count for much.

    300 links from 300 sites is a LOT BETTER than 300 links from 1 site.

    TBInternetMarketing is right, you will get a ton more backlink juice from the same number of links on different domains then all from the same site.

    I guess you wouldn't have troubles outranking this site,
    just start building backlinks from authority sites and you should be fine.

    Hundreds of backlinks from 1 site doesn't give too much benefits. Don't get scared if you see these numbers since it's only normal. You can even get thousands of backlinks from 1 site sometimes.

      It's called sitewide links, it's normal especially those who has comment tabs on their sidebars.

    Agreed That 300 Hundred Back Links from Single Website Does Not Provides as much worth compared to 300 back links from 300 websites! So its Batter Approach To Acquire qualitative theme based inbound Links!

    Google has a new rule about this issue right now. That site is a candidate for pulling down it's ranking. It is a must now that all backlinks must be diversed. Video, Blogs, Articles, Images, Profiles, etc.

    It may be possible that your competitor website is getting links from different activities like profiles, articles, blogs, videos etc. from same domain and showing on the first page of serp. But one should always prefer getting links from multiple domains as by doing so you can get link juice from multiple domains which is far more better for the website.
    Getting 300 links from one website is now worthless.

    Well friends this kind of link wheel will easily come in the radar of search engine algorithm and i think they will soon be penalized for this link farming from one site and if you want to beat them go out and get backlinks from various places and create wide link wheel which cant be noticed by search engines and that will benefit your site alot in serps

    I agree with TB as it is better to get different links from different sites than get more links from one site as this can not pass that much of the link juice from single site to yours as much different sites will pass to your site.

    A number of backlinks from one site does not give too much benefit rather if you have a number of quality backlinks from different sites it helps in google ranking.

    300 links from 1 website... This is surely footer links.

    Nothing hard to beat them out.
