If you were to personally spend $100 per month strictly on backlinks, what do you think the best way to do it would be right now?

What kind of links would you target?
How would you create them?
Outsource or do it yourself?
How would you get them indexed?
What links are the highest quality right now?
How soon would you expect to start seeing improvements in Google?

    I'd target web 2.0 or guest posts on high PR
    I'd outsource
    Again, with the budget outsource
    Ping all them then throw them into rssmix and ping that
    Guest posting on high PR blogs

      Ok. Here's what I would Do:

      I would take that $100/Month and invest in some High Pr domains with permanent backlink portfolios. I would skip one month, and get at least one good one for $200 bucks or more. In 6 months, I would have a handful of High Pr domains.

      With my small network of High Pr domains I would do 2 things:

      1 - Create new High Pr properties for low cost

      Simply by pointing a couple PR-3's at a new domain can cause it to gain a Pr 3 status for the next PR update. You can organically expand your network without spending more money.

      2. Point these powerful links at your money site(s)

      With a handful of High pr domains, you can rank for a lot of low to mid competition keywords.


      The above strategy is what I would do with a $100 monthly budget. In a short period of time, you can create a network that will blast you through the rankings. Much more effective than buying a bunch of Fiverr gigs that could send your site to the middle of next week.

        You mean actually buy the domains from somewhere like Flippa right? I was thinking of doing that.

        Will Google penalize you if you put backlinks on one of your sites that point to one of your other sites? Do you need to have multiple hosting accounts to avoid this?

        I would like to do this but I just want to do it right so I don't waste a lot of time and money.

        Best idea for long term! Over time, the money that you spend on renting links will far exceed the money you spend setting up your own domains. It just takes a little longer but is worth the wait.

        This sounds like the best strategy cause you own the network and links. I have $100/month budget for marketing besides outsourcing content. So I have $100 net to invest in off page SEO.

        My goal is to build 1 site a month. How many of these high PR with permanent backlink domains does one need?

    I would outsource some of the links and mostly for the quality link building i believe in my self. So I would do it with my own team.

      Mike, is there somewhere I can go that lists high PR sites for "rent"?

      Do you think this would be more effective than buying your own high PR sites in the long-term, though?

      Let me hear your thoughts.

    I would instead spend that money on getting some good content written rather than buy backlinks.

    Hi there,

    Had a question similar like this as the OP. I have tried all kinds of High PR backlinking services. They never get their links from the actual page but a domain PR, so the backlinks do not have that much power. I was looking at ODesk and several people say they get quality links from providers on the site. Some of the people on that site work less than 3$ an hour. Maybe you can setup a VA (Cheap rate) and have him do misc task for 25$ a week? I will be putting this into motion very soon.

    I saw some high pr blogs offering a monthly rental service on fiverr. However I have not actually checked the PR, so before ordering try and ask for the blog or domains they have. I think you type in Pagerank 10, some rental along with people offering to post your article on their PR10 properties show up. Just check the domain and such before, don't wanna rent a PR4 or anything.

    All the best,

    Matt D.

        I would certainly beware of backlinks on Fiverr also!
        Bad backlinks could hurt you too.

      /facepalm

      Don't buy - rent - hire anyone or anything, take few weeks and learn how SEO works ,at least basics , going around buying stuff , hiring people for 3$ to do SEO for you (lol) can only damage you and your pockets.

    Sorry duplicate post.......ya I know about that, I looked around and found a good one, then he got spammed to death right after. Like I said, probably Odesk or something for actual PR links and not just from the domain.

    Hi Mike,

    So you recommend renting them as well then too? As I have looked they are pricey... I have not actually purchased services like that, but several WSO's have referred to get them that way. In no way was I trying to act like I knew more about what you are talking about, was just offering suggestions. I know the profile links you are talking about, I was looking around on fiverr because there actually used to be a dude who had legit actual PR links, looks like he disappeared though... Anyways, thanks again for your insight, and if you can recommend anything besides renting them would appreciate it.

    All the best,

    Matt D.

    Hi GodMode,

    Well I only bought 3 services like that, and it moved me up 2 pages..... so I guess I didn't do too bad? Lot of research before buying though I will tell you that. Haven't bought anything recently though, couple War Room golden nuggets can help get you links too!

    There's not really a one-size-fits-all approach, so it's hard to say what I'd do in your situation, since I don't know how many sites, the size of the sites, existing backlinks, etc. It's really just a guess at what I'd do, because given each unique situation, I'd probably answer a little differently.

    Assuming a new blog/site, not a lot of content, I'd say web2.0, guest posts on relevant reputable blogs, guest articles on relevant reputable sites, I would do some article marketing probably too. If it's a brand new site, I'd get a Squidoo lens that links to the site, to get it indexed.

    There are just so many variables to the question, that it's almost impossible to say the right mix, without a clearer picture of the site.

    If I only had $100 to outsource per month though, I would use a source that would slowly drip feed some links and not look too suspicious. One site that I've seen is Linklicious.me, but I've never used their service and never got feedback from anyone on their reputation.

    If I could only do a few things... well, I want to keep talking, but really it's hard to answer without knowing more specific details about your situation.

    What kind of links would you target?

    Guest posts and high PR contextual links


    How would you create them?

    Offer content to webmasters, buy expired domains, contact webmasters and offer them money, buy them from me


    Outsource or do it yourself?

    Do it yourself or find a good source, make sure you educate yourself before doing either of both or find someone that you can trust. Positive reviews are not always what it seems, there have been a lot of changes lately.


    How would you get them indexed?

    The links I just mentioned will get indexed automatically, if not then you didn't do your homework properly.


    What links are the highest quality right now?

    Links at pages with pagerank (not talking about blogcomments) preferably no sitewide links as well, it seems Google is onto that lately.


    How soon would you expect to start seeing improvements in Google?

    If your site is brand new give it 3-6 weeks, if it's established you should see results in 1-2 weeks after you placed those strong links. Weak links can still take 4-6 weeks even on established sites before they kick in.



    Some other links that take longer to kick in but that still work and that are easy to achieve are:

    - links at relevant forums
    - doc/pdf sharing links
    - web2.0 links
    - free press release sites
    - video sites
    - local listings
    - social bookmarks at the top 10 sites
    - article submissions to the top 10 sites

    Just don't over do it!
