    I'm sure the "automated" part totally works, but as usual, no one said anything about the link exchange quality... No, wait, here it goes:

    "Immediately receive thousands of incoming links as soon as you register your website with us. As soon as you enter your link information into our system after registering, your website will be instantly linked with all of our 10,698 member websites. No more submitting individual link exchange requests and waiting for approval!"

    Immediately exchange links with thousands of unrelated sites? Way to go! To getting your site banned in Google, that is. And you have to pay for it. Woo hoo, sounds great, I hope they accept cash! :D

    Seriously though, link building is too important to be 100% automated. You'd be far better off with a semi-automatic software tool or hiring an SEO pro to do the job for you.

    Of course, if there are 10k sites related to your specific niche in the system, then go for it. Otherwise, don't go for it.

    I think it's simply a bad URL with a parenthesis at the end. Remove it from the address bar and you'll be able to view the site just fine (not that it's worth it ;)).

    Yeah I know what you mean, but I think you have an option to filter the sites you want to link with.... or something like that.

    Anyway, has anyone used similar service before?

    not only that, the links from such link exchange networks are usually placed in headers/footers, which makes them lower-quality.

    Used link-vault.com in the past for link exchange and they do a good job of matching links with the topics you choose. Since the GoDaddy update, however, Google has done a very good job of descrediting these types of automated links.

    Cost of ubiquitous link automation software; $39.95

    Cost of Mountain Dew to figure it out and launch $6.00

    Look on your face when G! bans you; Priceless.

    Some things are better done straight up.

    Best;

    there may be some benefit. I created an account at linkspartners.com once a long time ago and built a profile for a site but never accepted any link trades. People will link to your site hoping you link to them and never take the link down and as watered down as they are they are free and I have seem them listed as a backlink in goog from a few of their sites.
