Could your site get banned or penelized for getting 200 backlinks a day?

    Hi,

    Could your site get banned or penelized for getting around 150 - 500 backlinks a day.

    The thing is I am currently submitting around 5 articles a day and each one gets on more than 200 sites. Although, I have only started, the backlinks that I get per day should keep increasing every day and within a month I could be getting around 150 - 500 backlinks a day and then further down the line I could even be having 1000 or more a day.

    Could this be damaging or will it just be seen as I just promoting my site.

    Although, poeple say you can get penelized for getting to many backlinks in a sort time, I am not trying to spam the search engines with backlinks, all I am trying to do is to get traffic from these articles and also hopefully it will also help my sites link popularity.

    Yes it can be a little risky.. You may not be banned straightaway, but the site can go into sandbox.

    I think if the backlinks are of a quality nature then it should not be a problem.

    But it is true to say that very new sites can be penalized for getting a lot of low quality back links.

    I know people say you can get penelized, but if that was the case, then how do all these big sites get so big in a short out of time.

    Look at myspace and youtube for example.

    They have thousands of backlinks pointing to their site on a daily basis and it is only recently that they have become so popular and have had a dramatic increase in hits.

    If you want to become big then you have to advertise, but if you are so worried about getting penelized, then how can this be done. No matter how you advertise on the web, you will get backlinks in one way or another.

    So I don't really know why someone would get penelized.

    Maybe for poor quality links, but I am writing articles about affiliate marketing and then I am including my affiliate programs directory in the author signature once and maybe a link to my articles directory just because they are both related to marketing.

    Is that ok or do you think I still need to try and not get 150 - 500 back links a day just incase I did get penelized.

    Don't forget, I want to grow online. I do not have a business where I have 100's of small sites. I am a business with a few large sites that I want to get much popular and they need traffic and links pointing to my few sites to do that.

    If those links are natural and your site have quality content you cannot do anything against it, anyway. But if your SEO gets 200 links a day - it is too much and too risky.

    How do you know they are getting on 200 sites? And if they are...is it 200 different sites each time you submit a new site?

    If it's the same sites each time, you'll just be getting 200 links from 200 sites. If you keep submitting articles to them, then it would be just like getting site-wide links, except you'll have a few internal links, not completely "site-wide".

    Continue to submit articles. You won't get banned. It's pretty tough to get that many links in a day from 200 different sites without doing some spamming methods. Even if you did, that's a good way to GET OUTTA the sandbox, not into it. Sites that never get into the sandbox get a good amount of quality incoming links as soon as they launch.

    Having that many links every day from different sites may be considerd as spamming. Yahoo and MSN might like it but I wouldn't like to try it with Google. On the other hand Blogs get submitted to a number of pages a day so if it is going to the same sites then go for it.

    I think it is really risky.

    50 backlinks a day is perfectly ok. I knew a webmaster owning a link-buy service. He always recommended adding no more than 50 a day.

    The thing is, I am not manually adding my site to others for back links so I don't know if I will be getting 10 backlinks or 2000 back links a day.

    I will be submitting around 5 articles a day to article directories, where other webmasters will then pick them articles up and republish them on their site. So if some of my articles get popular then more and more webmasters will pick them up and my backlinks will start adding up.

    Anyway, I have decided to submit around 5 articles one day and then leave it for about 2 days and then submit another 5 and then leave it for another 2 days.

    Do you think that is a better approach?

    I want to advertise my site to directly get traffic from the articles, but also don't want to look as if I am trying to spam the search engines.

    200 backlinks a day=risky business ; althought, if they are one-way then , listening to the general opinion, you should not be penalized because you have no control over who's linking to you but, then again, you never know.

    I think that google has figured this into their equation, checking on each linking sites validity. If they are not from 'link farm' type pages, then you should be good. If you feel that it is too much, and you would not like to risk it, just consider submitting article on a less frequent basis.

    If you vary your anchor text and these are ONE WAY LINKS, then I think (based on my efforts) that Google should be fine with it. Here's another thought...

    Don't just work with articles, use ALL of the different sources of links to bring BL into your site. (Directories, Forums, etc and so forth).

    Best;

    OK!

    I have 4 product price comparison sites. 2 of them only include health products and the other two includes computer products.

    The 2 health ones are one for the US market and one for the UK marketing.

    This is the same for the computer products comparison sites.

    So, if I write an article about product price comparison, then what would be the best to insert into the author bio.

    Do you thing it would be best to insert both the UK and US health products comparison site or just both of the US comparison sites that are on different subjects.

    I hope you understand what I mean here.
