Outsourcing Link Building

[Gartwynn]

Link building is my least favourite activity. Is there a reliable way to outsource this that will have any meaningful results? Or if I want to get the links that will make a difference to SERP position will I most likely have to find those myself?

Thanks and Happy Holidays everyone!

If it sounds too good to be true it usually is. The "SEO" companies that do this for clients, would more likely make a hell of a lot more money if they could produce the results they promise, by promotiong their own websites.

So you are going to have to find those links yourself - you can outsource the linking to someone - take a look at the "BUY/SELL" section for more info. There are some people who will do what you want for some money.

Like Vic once said, you can outsource but you'll spend too much time verifying and explaining how you want it done so it doesnt really make it worth it.

Yeah. If you could find someone who already knows what they are doing, they would be doing it, instead of working for others.

You can outsource the bitch linkbuilding projects -- forum and comment links. There are some cheap backlinking sources you can find on digital point and warrior or blackhatworld.

For high quality links, you are going to have to shop around. Any real seo that can actually get your results is going to charge 3-5k a month. I've got a few friends who charge that much per month, but they really know how to linkbait and can rank for a lot of hard terms. The average person wants to spend only a few bucks on SEO/backlinks and you will get what you pay for.

For low comp niches, yea you can outsource. If you are trying to build some real authority, it's going to be harder to outsource to get the links you need.

Man, I am the exact opposite... I love backlinks... and outsource practically ALL content.

I usually will only buy backlinks so that I can see exactly what is being done, and then automate it.

Getting the backlinks is not the only story, you must get the Good one (less + Quality)

The problem that you will face if you outsource will be that the person you are placing in charge of your links could very well link you into bad neighborhoods with hundreds of other links.

It is better to just suck it up and find your own links. And really, it isn't as hard as you may think.....just check out your competitors links and look for links that look "out of place" on a page. If it looks funny, chances are it is a bought link and you can contact the webmaster. And chances are if the webmaster is selling links, he has more websites that you can buy from.

And I would like to confirm what Ben says....the real seo's who know what they are doing and can actually get you good, long lasting links with high value will charge you premium dollar.

But finding this kind of Gem (link buildings) is not so much easy, as many link building companies, just place your link anyhwere (footer or at place which looks spammy). As they work for no. of links not the qality of links.

But i do the same find the backlinks for competition and get your hand wet on those pattern and go!
