Are there any trustworthy link exchange forums? I have over 20 PR 4-8 links

I'm locking this question and disabling further replies. If the original poster would like more feedback, it's best to create a new question at this point.

Thank you Keri & Jennita for pointing that out I was wondering how my answer would be taken after the question was re-worded completely.
Noneyes you gave me the good answer and then changed your question and I answered that one as well. You have every right to change your mind on that. I do not mind at all.
So you know it is kind of rough on the people who are answering if you are changing topic of the question instead of just asking a second question.
Noneyes apologize if it sounded harsh.
It was not meant to be mean.
I hope that clears everything up.
Sincerely,
Thomas

It automatically shows that the question has been edited. It is Keri's job to keep the community informed, and she was making sure that people realized that Thomas' original response was because of the edit.

how are you employed? how am i paying for a service that publicly announces if i edit a question
-
Just a quick note that Thomas's answer was made before the question was edited and changed. The response was not to asking for talking about link building, but to a different question. For readers who don't know this, his response looks a bit off and harsh.

Happy to be of help Karen

Thanks Thomas!

quicksprout.com has a Q&A forum I believe at no cost. I do not think you are going to get any answers that will tell you how to acquire links without putting in a lot of effort.
I would recommend reading the Moz SEO guide it is valuable to matter what level you are at and will give you priceless information in Your quest to make a website better.
http://moz.com/beginners-guide-to-seo
Think of it from the end-users perspective and work on it that way.
I would also encourage you to check out http://distiled.net/U
But if you want to build links today you have to think of productive methods in which that website can add value then share them through public relations PR newswire, will get you in front of a lot of journalists and bloggers that will write about your niche if the content is outstanding and worth talking about. If you are not taking advantage of social media twitter, Google plus all those networks will bring attention to your website and people can then link to you naturally.
The building links part of search is in need of a rewrite for name.
I consider link building making the site fantastic and promoting it through legitimate channels.
Think about it no website is going even last if you try to manipulate the system so you want to start off that way. Or if you have traffic you want to destroy it by messing it all up.
I do not know what type of website your discussing or the business that they do however there are ways of getting listed locally that are completely white hat if the site is a local business. You can also make a name for the site in social media and through press releases.
The only place even remotely similar to this that I can think of is quick sprout. I think you will get the same answers that you been getting here.
I hope this is helpful,
Thomas

Is this a joke?
What you are doing is spammy, unreliable and black hat
Do not exchange links that is not how to get ahead.
Your really just hurting yourself by doing it.
Put the links away do not trade links for money or just because you think somebody else might have some fresh links that would help you that is really blackhat
It is against googles policies

Better to place linked-back article or post article and seek multiple links?
Which option is better for SEO purposes: 1. Author article for trade journal in return for link back to my home page. 2. Post article on my site and solicit links from multiple sites. Assume links all have moderate authority.

Do I ditch the link building and risk the drop?
I am currently on top of SERPS but am worried about some of the links being built by my seo company. We add loads of content to the site which I think is fine. We have somebody working on the on page and tech side of things which I think is fine. However I am still paying an seo company which basically builds links for me. Because I am in top spot for many terms I am nervous to turn it off. However I am also nervous that one day I will wake up and we will have been penalized! They do not build many links and they are convinced that google still want to see a varied link profile. If I stop paying then some of the ‘better’ or higher PR sites will no longer have a link to my site and will therefore drop off. We do have a great site with great content so I think we do many things well but I am nervous that these paid for links will be the death of me if I am not careful. The question is do I get rid of the link building and risk the drop? Or is a small amount of links just to keep the link profile looking Ok and not overdoing it the right move? Thanks a lot. Dave

Are PR releases good for Link Building?
I'm having a bit of a conundrum with Press Releases: I recently sent a press release on PRWeb (which I personally think is just "average" compared to others as it focuses mainly on the CBS network and is not focused at all unless you pay for an expensive release) and got over 100 incoming links from high PR news sites (according to Webmaster Tools) but these links had PRWeb in subtitle, so for all I know these were syndicated releases and not "Pick up By" as PRWeb reports. Will this affect Page Rank value or rankings for any keywords? Are these links treated only as temporary links or permanent back links? (I know sometimes they appear in Google News or Yahoo News, but disappear the next day) Was it valuable to the company? Our business is in health sector exclusively on East Coast U.S. and the release was seen all over the world and not one of the links coming back was from a health-related section. They were high rank online sites, but is there value in such links? added 11/30: I was reviewing competitors' link backs I found they did a lot of press releases and gained a high-level link back from each one. These were the best/highest-authority links they had. The syndicated releases were not even listed anywhere. And then I reviewed their SERPs... and guess what, their ranks increased with each one. (So I don't think "duplication" is an issue. If anything only the syndicated copies were penalized, but not the original one)

Link Building & Moz metrices
I am just starting up so no flaming please. Okay so i was given a project and i was amused to see a lot of backlinks to the website with viagra pills title. This is why i assume the domain authority is very low. I tried asking a few website owners to drop the links but they said its a lot of manual work they wont do it(that was shocking) So what next? Would building authority links in any domains help me in this case?

What are the best SEO agencies for link building?
I am not looking for a full service SEO agency. I just want link building. Not paid links, not link networks, not blog comments, not bookmarks...real, legit, decent links. Does anyone have any experience working with an SEO agency that helped them develop their link profile positively and at a reasonable price? I'm willing to pay for the service, I just want to work with someone who won't buy links or send a bunch of spam our way. If anyone has worked with such an agency, please let me know so I can contact them for more info. Thanks!
