The only downfall about these link exchange programs are sites like this. www.We-Can-Teach-You-Web-Designing-In-2-Days.info And when they add your link they add it to something like this www.We-Can-Teach-You-Web-Designing-In-2-Days.info/links3536646.php LOL. But that's the good think about www.LinkMarket.com (aka Link Metro) You can choose the sites you wanna exchange with!
I have been using this form to trade links works well. http://v7ndotcom-elursrebmem-org.com/tell_and_trade_v7ndotcom_elursrebmem.php
Not all the links are fraudulent by any stretch. I still use www.linkmarket.net and have noticed a recent trend. It looks like this sort of criticism has not gone unnoticed. I manually check each and every site I link with anyway and was rejecting 60% - 80% of sites because they were using some kind of scummy deception when it came to links. When I was going through the last cycle of link checking the quality had shot waaaaaay up, so that instead of rejecting the majority of sites, I was happy to exchange links because they were running legitimate link exchange programs. I was accepting at least 75% of requests.
really the guy from linkmarekt could make that such a better service if he purged all the dead beats in there. There must be thousands of people in there, who if you request a link from them, accept, and then don't do anything
Agreed. My guess is that he is probably taking steps towards this from what I've seen of the recent database updates.
I don't recommend none of them and I didn't use. You can see its benefits in a short time, but all of them may be affect your site bad.
Do you mean to "i didn't use any of those programs"? I think thats like a double negative. don't recomend none, that means you recommend all of the them. doesn't it?
Wow! This thread is really attracting the high-end discussions one would expect on a webmaster forum.
Whenever I hear someone say something like "link farm", "bad neighborhood" they usually 1) Have no clue 2) Sell seo services
