Are there any website where you trade links with people? Like talk it over by messaging then Have a deal? My Blog has gone down the last few Days need some backlinks!
you should really avoid trading links, it leaves a huge footprint that Google can see and we all know what happens when Google thinks you a trying to game their algorithm, SLAP!
Yes, macG has said it correctly here. Google doesn't like it and will penalize any website trying to do it. Try Article Marketing or Press Releases instead... Much more natural and a non-spam approach to getting quality backlinks to your site..
There are some real PARANOID people around here. The guy asked if there was a place he could do link deals with people. He never mentioned buying links. A place where you can do link deals with people is NO DIFFERENT to emailing and asking for a link. It is just a communication medium. As long as you are not paying for a link, or using an automated exchange that allocates links without human intervention then you will be FINE as lon as you check quality and relevance. As someone who runs a unique service where people go to do link deals, I can say it does NOT contravene Googles TOS, will NOT get you banned and is a LOT better than spamming forums, directories, blogs and social media - which is what a lot of you of you are doing, and advocating through looking for nofollow and high PR directories/blogs etc!
