telalinks is basically an automated link exchange builder. I really like the concept because it's totally automated, all u have to do is upload a php file. I had a website and used telalinks. It works because a link appeared that pointed to my website on all the telalinks "resource" links page. A few days later, I read about google's rules.... and I don't want to get banned, so I canceled my telalinks. My question is: should I use telalinks?
Manual link building is the best option and automated link programs need to be avoided as for as possible. Though slow, manual link building is google friendly but build your links in a steady manner. Too many links within a short period of time shall be avoided as it is disliked by google.
You have to take this mindset: links are for traffic, not SEO. If you build great traffic-generating links, they are the kind of links that search engines will count. If no one would visit that link, chances are that search engines know this and won't count your link for much. exception: nofollow links
The majority of those links you will acquire with telalinks will not be relevant links, google will definitely have a problem with it. You should focus on building one way links, it's more beneficial in the long run.
thanks for your expert opinions. I'm going to agree with you guys- won't risk automated link services. It would totally suck to have my site banned.
Doing it manually has its benefits, mainly those "Captchas" where you get to confirm you're human!! it always keeps me happy that, even after hours of link submission, i'm still human.
any automtaed link building program will eventualy land your site in trouble, because it builds links too fast and Google is clever enough to figure this out. Just stick with manual link building and you'll be fine.
manual link building is better as you can choose what you want. Although time consuming, finding powerful PR sites will boost your sites ranking
If I were you, I would try best to avoid this program. Google has been very strict and the way that the link exchanges go, google might think that you are participating in link farm. Not worth the trouble.
