dear all dpers, i was surfing the BST/service section, and im notice, there are many kind of backlink service or advertising method aviable. such as: 1. directory submitter service 2. social networking submitter service 3. mail groups advertising 4. myspace bulletin 5. etc my question is, which of that service can bring good repeated visitor to your sites? which one is the best proven method.
Some of the most effective for SERP's in my experience has been paid blog post packages and link exchange services like DLA.
I have found most directories to be ineffective for quality links or referrals. Certainly, it's not worth paying anyone for directory submissions. Of the ones mentioned, the 'pay per post' blog entries, link exchanges, template sponsorship, and link advertising would be most effective. Only with related content, such as health, auto, real estate, etc.
I don't know anything about being proven, but directory submission has been by far the oldest link building method for search engine optimization.
