I personally am skeptical about hiring someone to do this for me, mostly because I don't think I have the money needed to hire someone capable of doing a good/great job.
Exactly, if you are looking for quality, be prepared to pay. The reason most link building campaigns fails is due to unrealistic expectations with a spit poor budget. you simply cannot expect 100 PR3+ permanent, one way, related links for $200. That is abysmally low, people who can really get good one way links, will simply laugh and ignore it. Just hop over to getafreelancer to find idiots posting projects like these and equal parts fool or borderline scammers replying to those
I tried once 3 years ago. The result my site was banned and started receiving over 2,000 emails per day.
I have seen those link building services offered at getafreelancer I haven't used them. I know this thread is mostly about link building but I wanted a reply from some of the folks offering article writing services. If the articles requested are of a technical nature like describing how to setup certain software or how to configure certain software, does your company offer those kind of articles. My main website is for freelance IT services and I wanted to write a lot of articles for my site, to bring in traffic, but I simply have not gotten around to it. I have completed only 3 articles so far. What type of articles does your companies specialize in?
this is a great way to promote a website, get indexed faster, and show up better in the SERPS, if your serious about generating a quality site with traffic you have to link build! I always hire the work out over at GAF - getafreelancer.com
You do find good talent on GAF, but you will have to pay well for it. I am talking about ridiculously priced projects you see over there.
see my sig for linkbuilding thats low cost and quality and you get what you pay ffor - as exceptional reviews already in the thread
