Backlink booster - boosts and helps to index links?
-
Hello all,
We are using a tool called backlink booster that works in the following way:
-
you view a page with a backlink to your site
-
click on a boost link saved in favourites
-
the link is pinged to rss directories and web 2.0 sites
The idea is to get your links indexed faster.
Has anyone used this or something like this and had any benefit from it?
Thanks
Shehzad.

Not using indexer tools, but what Google expects is a backlink that is truly natural. In my opinion, building my own backlinks by linking sites to other sites through comments, profiles, etc. is not optimal.
Unless, you are using a strategy to build PBN (Private Blog Networks) backlinks. If you do it right like Renovasi Otak, in Google's eyes it will look good and very high quality. Because PBN uses natural blog development strategies and has almost no loopholes. Like the difference in IP address, devices, and so on.
Remember, that is just my opinion.

100% agree thank you both for your excellent answers

There are so many site, tools and 'solutions' like this on the web nowadays - and too many people seem to be buying into them.
The only true way to gain good quality links is though EARNING THEM. Instead of spending time indexing poor quality links via RSS feeds and such like, spend your time creating something link worthy - something people will want to link to, such as the Social Media Guide. It ticks all of the boxes, it's from an authorative source, includes badges (for link backs), and it's easy to syndicate.
Whatever your niche is, someone somewhere is looking for a review, a buying guide, or a 101 ways to... list. I know I'd personally spend my time following these methods.
@Shehzad - This isn't meant to be aimed at you in particular! This is just my strong recommendation to all employing these tactics to swap to more natural SEO

Shehzad,
First off, no I have not used software like this. Now I am assuming that using Backlink Boster is going to be your main link building strategy, so I am basing my following suggestions off of this idea. Usually, if you are getting a link from a site and it is not getting index fast, there is a good chance it’s a low quality link. You will not get very much value out of a link that is having a hard time getting index. So my question for you is, why spend so much time getting low quality links to your site? You can spend the same amount of time and maybe get 1 or 2 quality links and it will bring much more value to your site. You will get more authority, link juice & quality traffic from the 1 to 2 high quality links. Now, with all that said I would still be very careful using Backlink Boster, I looked at their site and there techniques look a very automated and spamy (maybe spamy is too strong of a word). After looking through there how Backlink Boster works page, I would say there is a good chance Google and most of the other major search engines have already flagged majority of the sites they are using in their network as low quality. If I was you, I would spend my time getting the high quality links from the authority sites in your industry.
I hope this helps,
Cyle

I want to know about the Impact of Do-follow backlinks and No-follow backlinks for increasing DA.
Have Do-follow backlinks and No-Follow backlinks same value to increase Domain Authority in Moz? Recently, I have created 290 profile backlinks which was do-follow. But from yesterday I have seen all backlinks are no-follow now according to the decision of sites' owners. My site's DA has already increased up to 35. Will this DA fall gradually from now? Apart from it, if I have created same backlinks for my another site; will my DA be 35? Please try to clarify it. My site is: Homeworkpaper.net Thanks. Waiting for your valuable answer.

Back link from site with DA of 72 to a website domain. Clicking on the link redirects to our website not the attended one.
Hi,
Link Building | | JIMBO16
I've ran a back link check and discovered a good back link to a site which then gets redirected back to my company's website. I have a feeling that an old SEO agency has purchased a small website which has a decent link back from a relevant organisation with a high Domain authority and then redirects the domain to our website to get the link juice. What are your thought on this? Is this really bad practise and possibly damaging? Thanks, Jim0 -
Internal Linking - Post links vs Side Bar Links behaving differently
Hi, I have a question regarding the internal linking behavior. My website is www.hindimeaning.com which is approx 3 years old. I have approx 450 posts. Now i have a widget on right sidebar "Popular posts". A widget below my posts "Related Posts". And a simple html CSS menu above the posts (I removed menu around 6 month before so currently it will not show.) I crawled my site with moz crawler (same are the result from google crawler as well) and it shows menus links as internal links. While sidebar widget "Popular posts" and "Related Posts" are not showing as internal links. If we talk theoretically what i learn till now is "every link on a page behaves as internal link". Then why the widget links are not showing as internal links. Thanks, Mahesh Kumar

Backlinks embedded in posts or backlinks in sidebar?
What's better? A backlink to my site, embedded into a blog post/article? Or a hardlink in the sidebar? The problem with links embedded inside articles, is that when the blog linking to me, gets updated, the articles disappear from first page and I lose the link from home page. How do you deal with this? I also read this: "The best link you can get is from a site ranking #1 for the keyword you want to rank for. It would be great to have the #1 site for a desired keyword linking me even if they are a PR 0 site." Is this right? Thx in advance.

Does blocking domains help remove bad links?
I have affiliate websites that are harming for one of 2 reasons: 1. They are on adult websites (and I don't want to be in a bad neighborhood) or 2. They are using a Frameset (so their content appears identical to mine and I am getting "credit" for all their junk links) I cannot get these websites to remove our links so I have blocked their IPs on our production firewall. Is this an effective method or should I do something else with these links?
