    I think SEO has come a long way and getting free quality backlinks is getting impossible these days.

    Any opinions.

    Not impossible :) But you gotta spend money to get money. If you try to get everything for free or cheap, IM is not for you I think. Just my opinion :)

    Yeah. You are right. Today it is very hard task to get free backlink for site. But if you can spend money then easily get more backlinks in minimal time. Thanks

    Backlinks obtained from paid links are not found to be more effective, than earlier, so collecting them by performing regular SEO tactics will be better and will get to see some improvement, also as we know most of the sites have suffered with Google Panda update.:cool:

    You can not say that is impossible, can say that requires extra effort to search for good back links.

    There never has been something like "free" backlinks anyway. Everyone, who has at least looked at the outside of a business school building, should know that your own manpower is also an investment. So if you think of sitting down 5 hours to generate maybe 100 backlinks, you should consider investing $20 to get 5000 of them.
    I agree with blomstervand on this:

    I agree, web masters do seem to be much more prudent when linking to other sites nowadays.

    It is really tough but to say that it is quite impossible, is not correct. The main thing is that these days we are facing much competition, so things look hard. You must have extra work for enhancement your site position in SERP.

    No it really is not. As long as you provide actual value to the users, they will keep coming back and linking your site just as a sign of graduation.

    Not impossible. You have to spend time or money to get good links. Everyday hundreds of wordpress blogs are created. Fresh and ready for linking.
