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

Setting up a separate site for link building
We are jump starting a link building campaign for a personal injury law firm. We're planning on doing things right with earning links to content people will actually want to share, sponsoring local events, etc. We're a little worried that some good opportunities could be missed due to the fact some people have assumptions about personal injury lawyers and would be hesitant to link to us simply because of our injury, regardless of what we're trying to share/promote. One solution we're considering is creating a foundation associated with the firm that supports relevant causes and provides the public with educational resources. That might get over our branding hurdle a bit. We've also discussed setting up a separate site for the foundation and actually building links to it rather than our main site, then linking the foundation site to our main site. The hope would be that we could get more links to the foundation site and it would in turn pass on link juice to our main site. My concern is whether this strategy makes any sense. We'd be putting good content on this foundation site rather than our main site. How much link juice would actually be passed on to our main site in this case? Would so much be lost that it would negate the whole purpose?

Guidelines for keyword-targeting and link building?
Hello, Every month, I set a goal of targeting 10 - 15 relevant keywords for my website. I then attempt to boost my site's rankings for these terms through a combination of content writing and white hat, non-paid link building. My question is: Are there general guidelines for keyword-targeting and backlinks? Is it healthy to target 10 - 15 different keywords (or more??) like this per month?

Building links to reviews: Movies, Restaurants, etc
My site has lots of reviews: Movies, TV, Music, Restaurants, etc. I'm looking for sites that take critic reviews and link back to the critic's site. We're already on Metacritic.com and Rottentomatoes.com, which seems to be the two biggies for movies & tv. But I'm sure there are more out there. Also, I'd love to find sites for restaurant reviews (specifically in the Boston area). Are there any lists out there of sites like these? I'm NOT looking for UGC sites that allow user reviews. I'm looking for sites that accept professional critic reviews, preferably via some sort of automated feed. Thanks Mozzers!

Link Building for lower budgets that work on 2012
Hello, I think many of us have re-plan their SEO strategy since the latest updates from Google and we all saw that coming anyway. We already know that link building using Directories, Article sites, Link exchange, profiles, footer/side links, paid links, press releases and other have been devalued or not working at all. For low budget websites and websites that cannot afford fresh/valued updated content or other link baiting techniques there arent much left. I my self found that Social Media and Blogging (Guest posts) are they only techniques left for websites that cannot manage to get natural links. Also i have realized that On-page optimization is getting more attention again. We all have great ideas of acquiring links but what we do when time and budget is limited? Google promotes natural link building but how you supposed to get natural links from a new low reputation website? I kinda of like the new approach since it will make SEO work a lot of harder and eliminate the easy path success. It will also focus the SEO job more on On-page and on great content. But this is getting a lot of harder for new websites with lower budgets and lower time to consume on SEO. I deeply know the answer of my question but i would like your opinion also and of course if anyone would like to share some ideas or know-how to discuss is welcome.

Hi, I"m moving forward with link building for nlpca(dot)com and here's my plan I know my industry, keywords, and this site very well so I'll start by: Analyze Top content for top 10 competitors and see where the links are currently going. I'm assuming a competitor is someone similar to me and not sites like wikipedia in this case Make a spreadsheet for all of the worthwhile links that I find by using OSE and the top 10 competitors, places where if we're good enough we can get a link on that page. See what they're linking to Use (1) and (2) to discover what stelllar targeted content to build Use infographics, a blog, and articles to build targeted content to request a link from the people in (2) building out facebook, twitter, and Google +1 for the site is coming too. Your thoughts? I'm completely open to improvements via feedback.
