guys, I go on getafreelancer, elance etc etc, these guys are charging upto $8-12 a pr 3 link!! that is wayyy beyond my budget, where are you guys going for links, i need a team to build them as I have like 4-5 sites and cant build for all of them since I am alone and need to update content too. thnx
Beyond your budget as in your whole budget or cost per pr3 link? Take a visit to the service section and see what it can bring..
I would add your site to the top 10 or 20 directories and the main search engines. Then work on site.
per pr link in general... as for content <-- ya id hope so, but its not always the case, dont get them fast enough my niches top 10-20? or what top directories?
You can have an excellent site with lots of unique content. It will attract users on its own, and links also, but they will take time. If you want to focus on earning from your site, just add good and unique content to it, and promote it on forums, blogs etc. It should start getting traffic and links too and get you some $$. Focusing on links only without good content will not be a good idea.
usually, the link builders on these sites charge lower as for most the quality is not good but if these quotes are from some quality link builders, I would call those rates cheap
Depending on the criterias your link would be evaluated - not more then 30 links on the page, high pr, recent indexed etc- these rates seems resonable. Also being a manual process, the link building tends to be bit on the higher side of the rates.
Altek i have a link builder who is so good that he is getting sites into googles top ten just by his link building skills. His portfolio is rocking and now hes become a very hot commodity. He works on a 6 month scale. Stop thinking about pagerank if u want to see good rankings. He got a pr zero site to a number one position for a tough keyword. Pm me for his portfolio and his rates. i just love recommending him now even more because he finally broke away from non disclosures and he is starting to get noticed finally.
I think, he did not mention if it is permanent or monthly price. I guess $8 for a permanent relevant link is not expensive.
