Ok, so I've evaluating some link popularity services from various SEOs. Do you think a one way link exchange with a PR5 for the cost of $18 is a good deal? I think it's about $16 for PR4 and so forth.
First I assume your are talking about $18 per month. If this is correct there are several questions that need answering before the price can be evaluated. 1. What is your purposed in buying the link? a. Are you just looking for PR transfer? b. Are you looking to improve your position in the SERPs? c. Do you expect, or want, click through traffic from this link? d. Are you looking for all three? 2. Beside the PR value of the linking page this is what we need to know. a. How many unique visits per day or month does the page receive? b. Is the theme of the page relevant to your site? c. How many total out going links are there on the page? d. Where on the page is your link going to be placed? Until all those things have been decided and evaluated it is impossible to determine fair value.
You should be warned. If you sell your link to pr0 site or banned site your pr can be reduced even to pr0.
You may wanna hang around a bit more on these boards linking out to a PR0 clean site does not reduce one's PR to 0.
Why would anyone sell you a permanent link for $18.00? I think I sell links cheap, but I'd charge you $10.00 month for a text link from a relevant PR4 or PR5 page. Now I'd be skeptical of the deal.
I may need to go back and talk to the guy and clarify that it's one permanent and then I'll let you know. Besides, the company is very transparent with me and would email me where their sites are being linked to. i asked for a portfolio of work for their link popularity campaign and he emailed me an spreadsheet of where his client's links are being linked to. I checked their sites and the PR and everything and it was legit. I mean, you can't ask for more than with regards to transparency. Most SEOs always sit there and say, "Sorry, we can't tell you due to privacy reasons. If we told you, we'd have to kill you." or something like
I don't want to sound like a spendthrift, but if it's only $18 for a life time link then you are doing a hell of a lot of navel-gazing and agonizing. Just go for it. $18, what have you got to loose? My point is they can't afford to even send you a single email if all they are going to charge is $18. If they really are all that interactive and transparent for $18 I don't think they can possibly be around long.
But i need one clarification here We have been doing link building for many clients and we offer the prices as follows PR 4 + links at $ 140 for 20 links PR 3 + links at $ 100 for 20 links PR 2 + links at $ 75 for 20 links Why are you people ready to pay so much ?? The links we build are from relevant websites and the clients get a chance to reject / accept the links once we provide them with output. and all the links are permanent, i mean no monthly prices. But you ppl seem to pay a lot for these links ? aren't you Dhaliwal
Dear Compar, I am new here, but i think you are valuing links a lot more than what they are in the market. Well, you know better about your industry where it could be diffcult to get links. Dhaliwal
It is usually said that any link is a good link. But I'd be interested in other's opinion about links from foreign servers. Do you really think that Google will evaluate a link from a server sitting in India as transfering as much relevance to a page as that same link from a server in the same country as the page is designed to do business in? I hope that question is clear. I'm not saying that the link won't transfer PR, but as many of you know I think PR is almost useless as far as SERP placement goes.
I was expecting to get at least a reaction for my request for a "quote" on your website. I guess you are to busy.
I think that links can be a part of geotargeting to the specific region or country. The more links for example in india the higher will be in india's google. If you will get links from one host there could be sugesstion that you use spam methods (your host is yours and you have made a tricky script). So I think that the more links and from different sources that is better.
It turns out that it was $18 for a permanent link for one way. It's one of the members here, SEOexpert. You can check out his company; http://www.sem.mosaic-service.com/ I'm thinking the reason it's cheap is that it's in India and they can cut cost deeper than Amercian SEO companies can. I mean, we all know that India is an emerging country for technology. Ah....globalization
I didn't say that i provide links from my website or my own server. i gave those prices for one way link building campaign. and in such a campaign the links come from the websites all over world which are related to that very sector for which we are seeking links.
