    Are link exchange programs considered bad by google , yahoo. I know reciprocal links are not the best. But how about just trading links with others ort 3 way links. Does anyone know of a link exchange website that utilizes 3 way links? Thanks

    Anything that is designed to manipulate the Search results can't be good.

    Thanks Pedro. Sounds like in general just stick with the tried and true methods of link building and anything that sounds too easy or too good to be true stay way from if you want long term results.

    3 way links would definitely be better since the Google crawler could easily spot a link exchange between 2 sites.

    That sounds about right. :)

    I have had awful results when resorting to let's just say... less conventional methods in order to achieve fast results.

    The results will take more time, but when they are obtained in an honest truthful way they will produce even better results in the future.

    if you are making link exchange with similar web sites and with manual ways, it's a good way to rank your serp and pr.

    dont use the automatic link exchange tools

    Link exchanges still get good results if done right. The key is to only exchange links with good quality web sites.

    3 way links are MUCH better. People have been getting fantastic success using the new network at http://www.3waylinkz.com/
