Feverish Back-Linking Will Ruin Your Google Search Ranking

I had an interesting conversation via email with a back linking company. They have different packages one may purchase which  promises to submit comments with your URL and keywords on blogs and forums all over the world.

In case you didn’t know, comment linking is making some kind of comment which includes anchor text (some say the best link) that points to the URL you want. Anchor text is highlighted words you see when visiting websites and if you click on them, you get directed to another site.

When he told me 1,000 links are done in about 14 days, I had to ask the question, “how can 1,000 comment links submitted in 14 days not be construed as spamming by the Search Engines?”

Of course I never received an answer. Can you guess why?  Because it is spamming and submitting links like that may give you a shot of link juice that propels you up the search listings for a very short while and that’s about as long as it will last, a very short while.

Google and eventually the others (will take them longer because their search algorithms are no where near the class of the big G) will slap your site so fast, you’ll be wondering what the heck happened.

Of course the old adage, “Some people will sell anything to make a buck and some people will buy anything to make a buck” holds true here.

Ask yourself if submitting 1,000 comments in 14 days (about 71 per day) is or would be  a natural occurrence if you just built a blog or website today?

Do you understand my point? Of course it isn’t natural and Google will see through that and rank your website/blog where it should be, no where.

There are no shortcuts to SEO and Internet Marketing. The sites that are basically link farms are found out every day and the small amount of juice they can offer will be wiped out which brings me to another point.

Lately, I’ve been getting offers from sites with PR 4, 5 and 6 to exchange links with a few sites I have that I spend zero time on, get no more then 1,000 visitors per month, have no page rank and high Alexa rankings.

What these link farms are looking for are people like me who don’t spam or cheat and have all natural traffic because their links are running out of juice and they need some good back linking  I tested a few, gained no benefit what so ever and have stopped the exchanges.

I researched these link farms and checked their content. It’s all spun mumbo-jumbo that makes no sense, offers nothing to a searcher/visitor and is losing ground fast. Thus the reaching out to me.

I can say this until I’m blue in the face; it’s time to grow up about backlinking and stop trying to get high rankings in a couple of weeks by using link farms or linking companies that do nothing but spam blogs or forums or have dozens if not more of the link farms themselves.
