I just paid $25 for mass blog submission from cheapseoservices, I think to about 140 blogs. I submitted a directory article. Great deal because the article was allowed 3 links. It would have been twice the cost if I did not write my own article. I think I got a good deal.
I actually submitted to a category with PR5 in BOTW directory for permanent listing at $199.95 but damn they moved my listing to a PR3 page.
15$ for PR6 sitewide link spot on a quality site which is only based on organic search engine traffic.
BTW: an0n, now tell us the most expensive link you've ever bought and its PR value. (we are all curious)
Yeah I'm surprised there hasn't been any Yahoo Dir submissions yet. Well I'm not about to start that one . Highest I paid for was BOTW.
I used to pay 150$/month for one link from last 8 months from one dp member, still paying 130$/month for another high PR link which i think are the costliest of all Edit : does dp donation count as a link purchase then 550$ i have paid for that PR7 link which is the highest Edit : didnt write about the smaller payments i did for gii in botw and many other xxxx directories
Gave a carpet cleaning job and had to be a slave for a day in exchange for 1 deeplink. (I'm a janitor in my day job )
I pay for a regular link for alive, aviva, ask-dir..we all know how much that cost. Also gave up my link feed for cheapseoservices blogs posts.
It was when I bought a 'cheap' pr4 for 'life' on eBay for a few bucks That's when I learnt about the scam, put cache: before the url and did a Google and got a completely different site. Sheesh, live and learn hey
I'd actually have to rummage through a few thousand paypal receipts to sort this out. (time is not on my side for that )
