Indeed, kittens + the Internet = traffic. I would say that getting 200 backlinks per day about something like insurances would be very hard compared to kittens.
Yes you can get prema 200 backlinks...try to find out on social networking websites....blogs...also on forums discussions.
even more so if he is a brand new site, and trying to get 200/per day... personally, i would like to know how many links/day a top site gets when the site reaches a certain level of success...even then, at some point, your daily links will slow down, even for a top site, you will lose links, you will gain new links, it may never be constant, ie 200/day....
google just showed you what you could have had the honest way, then they slapped you, and took it away.... google seems to be getting rid of all this free promotion stuff, or anything that does not benefit google... it is simply why it is much harder to get a site going these days compared to years ago.... google is pretty much against everything you do that they did not know much about back then.... google's natural way is you sitting back, doing nothing, and let the internet decide your fate...
I agree. We build several experimental/test sites every month to evaluate various SEO/Link Building strategies and methods. Each month, on at least one of these sites, we acquire 400/500 links (mainly from directories) within a span of 5 to 7 days. We've not experienced any site getting penalized so far. YMMV, though.
