Don’t Buy Links

December 6, 2008 by Admin

SEO when it first started had companies buying links, buying emails, and generally using practices we frown on today. You want to have inbound links from websites to your site for a good Page Rank from Google and other search engines. Unfortunately the creations of these links can be difficult. A lot of companies are still using the buy a page link option. Sometimes they have a good list with plenty of links that make sense to their content. Unfortunately most of these lists for sale will be the undesirable links when it comes to SEO.

When you purchase links you are hurting your page rank. You will hurt the ranking even more if you buy a list that has a lot of porn, Viagra, or other subjects. Google and the search engines want to see links that have meaning, over 1000 linked pages. You can certainly try a service that is supposed to match a blog content site to a web content site. However, even this is faulty. You may get keywords that appear in your content by purchasing these links, but wouldn’t it make more sense to get the link the correct way?

You don’t have to buy links to get the inbound links you need on your site. Instead you form relationships online with other sites. For example you may approach a site that has an encyclopaedia information style on birds. You sell products for birds. There is no competition, but both pages get more consumers and you know the link is decent. Plus it is free advertising for the search engine optimisation needs you have. The links that are set up this way will not get dinged by the search engine crawlers, where as if you buy links you could be doing detrimental damage to your website. Link purchasing is not needed for good SEO.
