    Alright this is what I've done so far, tell me where else can I invest my money.

    1. I bought links from Botw directory and dirjournal. $150 total
    2. I buying links from TLA.com , I have $500 a month now running with about 40 High PR5's PR4's homepage links.. All very high quality.
    3. I had my guy do loads of high quality do follow blog commenting, all high PR links (pages had high PR)
    4. All free directories have been covered.
    5. All social bookmarking sites have been covered.
    6. I bought some other paid directories, but dont' think they have much value.


    What I think I still need to do:

    1. Buy a link from Yahoo Directory $300
    2. Do some more do follow link building
    3. Thinking of buying some more paid directories, (ones who have high pr pages like botw and yahoo) (I need recommendations)


    Alright guys this is what I did so far.. I have like 30,000 backlinks and ranking on page 3 for 5000 search per a day keyword.

    Question is now.. what do I do? Where else can I blow some cash!? :D

    Get more one way links..

    You should be on the first page soon, and yeah PR matters. So go for some paid directories such as Yahoo, that should push you upwards in the eyes of Google.

    First, what is the age of your site.

    Are you offering a product or service - and if it is can you link from .edu .gov .mil sites?

    Have you become the authority in your field?

    Spending cash doesn't always get you top listings in the searches. Be smart and pay attention to details. Research, Research, Research your competition over and over.

    Thank you for the tips, I really would like to learn how to buy links from EDU and Gov sites. I don't want to comment on edu, gov blogs, I think they have no value. I'm looking for home links.

    Yeah some sites that I bought links from have my link placed on 100s of pages.

    That's a big linking campaign you're running there. One last thing I'd add is that you should make sure that your landing page is well designed to turn all your incoming traffic into conversions.

    One final advise is to consider paying for blog posts - they provide you with good quality permanent backlinks (if done on a blog of course) Paying monthly for links is not my thing.

    Good luck.

    Yes my landing page is more like a big website + a forum.
    Yes I tried working with Payperpost.com, It's very tiring to wait and wait for someone to accept my request. I had only 1 blog post review success with them.

    Do you know any other sites/people who sell blog posts? I'm really interested to invest alot in this field.

    Trust me paying monthly for links is not such a bad idea, over the past 2 months since I started my link building campaign I have 400% traffic increase.
    I have over 1000 keywords now ranked in Google, Yahoo and MSN.

    So is it worth it? Yes.

    You can try sponsoredreviews for paid blogposts, but there's really alot of junk 'make for advertising' blogs in there.

    Personlly, I think you have too many paid links. You really don't need more than a few.

    I also see that you've spent alot of time with directories. Most directories, however, are greatly devalued by Google now, and the links they give you are close to worthless. Yahoo and DMOZ are the two main exceptions, but even their links are devalued.

    I see that you haven't done alot of blog commenting. Personally, I think this should be one of your highest priorities.

    Tell me about it, I hate the Junk in blog review sites. I joined buyblogreviews.com and still have 50 dollars in there that I can't spend because there so much spam in there.

    I think BOTW directory link is good, because the page my link is on is PR5.
    Yahoo is link building 101, so there no point of not trying to get the link if the money is present.

    About DOMZ, I submitted my site like a month ago. I've heard it needs at least a year to get listed (if you ever do)

    About blog commenting, I have my guy do like 100. I'm using this software to find do follow blogs with content relevant to mine. So I think I'm going to push on that even more.

    But don't you think I should give the website a break a bit, like sit back for a month and see what my work has done?

    I don't want to over do it with links, the problem is in Text-link-ads.com they are so so unresistable. You just want to punch in that Credit card for more links, never been easier to get links (in such a high quality way)

    I find that sponsoredreviews at least have a pretty nice filtering system to weed out the blogs you know you don't want.

    As for blog commenting, I like to gain about 5-10 per day, for as many days as I'm online. I tell people to keep that up for a couple of years.

    Another thing you might want to try is a heavily promoted link star. I'm sure you've heard of a link wheel. A link star is similar except you odn't link the spokes together. Here's an article that might help with that.
    http://www.adhocads.com/Can-Link-Wheels-be-Effective.html

    TLA has a great inventory, but they're pretty overpriced. Stop by and check out my inventory sometime (link in signature). I have about 700 sites, and all have been pre-screened.

    I just signed up, and checking it out.
    Question do you accept Credit cards, because I don't have access to paypal.

    Could you please guide me a bit, is this like TLA.com?
    Any discounts, coupon codes etc? I get 20% off in TLA.com

    It's alot like TLA, except we encourage our advertisers and publishers to make sure all links are revevant.

    You should be able to purchase with a credit card through paypal, without having a paypal account. Some countries have trouble with this, though. Let me know if you do.

    We provide discounts for multiple links purchased and/or longer term subscriptions. Let me know if you find sites you're interested in putting links on, and I'll work with you.

    Ok i'll take a look around, I'll probably find a way to deal with you (other then paypal). You are the owner of the site right? (Looks like it)

    But don't you think it's too steep.. the second you sign up you can see URL of the site your buying link from. I think you should make it like TLA, to protect the link seller from google banning them.

    Btw you should think about adding 2checkout.com to your site, it's one of the reasons why many international buyers use it(TLA.com). (it's very easy with CC's without having to go through paypal)

    We actually are going to be moving to a model closer to what TLA provides, however, our first priority is making sure that the site advertising and the site publishing are very relevant. One of the biggest problems with TLA is that publishers end up with a ton of links that aren't even remotely related.

    Also, we'll add other payment options as we grow. Our main attraction to paypal is the recurring payments. Usuing recurring payments, we can keep our administrative overhead low, and therefore offer a higher percentage cash back to publishers.

    Hello,

    I don't know if on the Forum your allowed to add a question to a going thread. But, I want to know something. Is Twitter a good way, to advertise and link exchanges. Or is buying links and going with Adwords Better?

    Twitter can be good for driving traffic. If you build up enough relevant followers, and you post a related tweet, then you can get some pretty good short term traffic.

    Adwords is also good for driving traffic. Used properly, Adwords can make just about any business reasonably successful. It's great for driving very targetted traffic.

    Buying links and other search engine marketing techniques is usually not about driving short term traffic. Instead, it's about building backlinks, and increasing SERP position in order to increase the amount of organic traffic that comes in through search engine searches.

    @Liquidation I used to use these companies to get bloggers for some of my campaign, but soon found out that they almost always got me poor quality bloggers. So, I've decided to look around and contact bloggers myself to do the job.

    I'm not sure I can add the links here in case it's against the rules, so I will PM you.
    They've worked well for me over the years and it has cuts down on a lot of head aches and huddles.

    See how it works out for you.
    Good luck.
