textlinkbrokers - experiences and opinions pls

    I have been looking at improving my incoming links. TextLinksBrokers offer a service which involves creating pages for you on unique C class IP's...

    $50 to set up each page, and then $160 per month for 8 pages. (PR 2 within 2 months)

    Can't help but feel the money would be better spent on adwords at that price, yet they seem serious...

    Anyone tried this out yet or have an opinion?

    I think you could find much better link buying deals in this forum than by most brokers.

    Hi Jaimitodelqueso,

    I appreciate your interest in our company and the Pre-sell page program. I thought it was important that I point out that this particular program is not something you could purchase directly from the forums, since there are no others that offer Pre-sell pages from so many different relevant sites. Actually, you would be hard pressed to find even one person offering pre-sell pages on the forums.

    I think it is important to know the difference between Pre-sell pages and High Pagerank links. They are two completly different programs. Pre-sell pages are powerful because the whole page that we custom build and optimize is dedicated to your company. You get five links per page which are embedded in the middle of the content. This is great since Google loves links embedded in content. Google also likes it when your keyword is in the title of the page. It is these things that make the pre-sell page program so powerful.

    High pagerank links, on the other hand, are good for getting large sites spidered as well as helping to rank deep pages on a site. Textlinkbrokers has the largest inventory of high pagerank links. These sort of links you can find directly on forums, or by visiting sites like linkadage.com, although you will be pressed to find a lot of them from any one vendor. One of the advantages of textlinkbrokers is that we can provide relevant links from many different sites. If you have your own staff or have the time, then it might not make sense to use a broker in some cases. You can just go out and research and negotiate with the webmasters directly, or travel to all of the forums and auctions and make purchase directly.

    The other kind of link that I think is worth mentioning is the "authority link" which is different then High PR links. Often times they are the same thing but not in all cases. Its possible to have an authority site that is not particulary high in Pagerank. An example of an authority site is a College News site that has hundreds or thousands of backlinks from other colleges or from .gov's. It is also great when they are high traffic. Textlinkbrokers also has a large assortmant of Authority links and these are very difficult to obtain links from directly.

    With all this being said, it sounds like you have a fairly small budget. I always suggest doing PPC regardless of whether you are doing SEO. In a lot of cases I suggest you do it first. PPC provides a very quick ROI, if done correctly, and can also help you determine which of your keywords are the highest converting. That information is crucial when determining what sort of links to buy and the anchor text that should be used etc...

    I hope you choose to use our services in the future however I understand that it is not in some webmasters best interest to use an outside service. I hope the free SEO report we gave you will help to point you in the right direction. FYI, we will be offering a new version of the SEO report in the next week or so, that is going to include much more information. Feel free to stop by and have us run one for you.

    Hey Jarrod

    I have sold links to your company in the past, but since you have changed the password system I have been unable to access the site.

    I think I emailed a couple weeks ago about it, but if i didn't i emailed again today

    I was wondering why you guys have now created a seperate login for everyone of my sites, i now have like 10 logins for your site, (none of which work ...)

    Would it be much more efficient to have 1 login , where i access all my information?

    I had talked to their 'live support' to ask a question, and receive an incredibly unprofessional and rather rude person on the other end. I was very polite and fairly professional but I felt I was talking to a 13-year-old...

    I never went back.

    Hi tyler,

    I'm sorry if you had a bad user experience. I remember this incident after I had looked into it from a complaint you had made on another forum. My guys are usually very courteous, unfortunatly they are only human too, and there is often a lot lost in translation when speaking through Instant messaging systems. From what I remember I believe we were asking about becoming and inventory partner, but we were not interested in what you were selling. If you feel the issue is still unresolved, I would be happy to hear you out.

    Thanks

    Jarrod

    Hi Dejaone,

    While you are entitled to your opinion, and while the service may be too expensive for you, there are still those who value the quality of our links as being worth more then your "average" seller. I will be the first to admit that in some cases we are more expensive then others, but at the same time we are also higher quality then most and have a much larger support team. We also provide services that no other company provides, some of which are in very high demand and others that are in low supply. Unfortunatly we do not have unlimited staff and supply, so at times we have no choice but to price these services accordingly.

    As always I encourage everyone to shop around. If you have the time and the knowledge, you can find deals out there. If you find that you dont have the time, or you cant find all the quality themed links that you require, then I would urge you to give us a try. Additionaly, if you find that you have bought links from others and they have not panned out, I would encourage you to call and speak with us. Our Account Managers will be happy to show you real-life examples of companies using our services and the successes they have had. As well as give you plenty of references that you can call and speak to yourself.

    Hi Tauren,

    Sorry for the late reply, I dont have much time these days for forums. I hope you were able to get access to your account, if not please call or email us through our site. Our inventory people will make sure you can get in. As for having multiple logins for multiple sites, we are working on a solution to that very shortly. If you feel it is simply too much of a pain to deal with in the short term please let my guys know, we could build you a custom solution to connect all of your accounts together.

    Thanks,
    Jarrod
