To hire a link building company.... or not?
-
I am doing a lot of the niche partnership link building but I am looking for a company to compliment some of my work in other related areas. Need some advice from the group.
A couple of questions:
1. I'm looking for a company to acquire around 20-30 links per month. Not talking about easy directories or social links, but good (PR 3+) sites that are somewhat related to my business.
Is that a reasonable request?
2. What should I expect to pay for this each month?
3. Any good suggestions on companies in the US. I am a small startup with a fairly limited budget, at least for now?
Thanks everyone!

Good link building companies are very expensive. Theres webuildpages.com. $2500 for 10 permenant links. They are good quality. Also, I'd be sure to keep away from judging links by solely by PR. It's not a good metric on its own.

Thanks, seems a pretty clear message. Good advice.

Thanks for the advice SallyO.

Like SallyO, I could not stress enough to try and do this yourself somehow. I know of no-one who has a good experience of using a company just to do this. Someone always falls foul somewhere and you are the one that is going to pay the price, sadly.
Regards,
Andy

Good Morning Paddlej
My experience with link building companies is not quite positive. Two times I allready experienced that a great part of the built links disappeared when the cooperation with the link building company finished. In addition we had always to control if the links what we paid for are still there and if the "payed pagerank" is up to date or not. Because a PR3 link costs more than a PR1...
I'm sure that there are numerous of excellent working companies!! Unfortuenatly we have made this bad experience.
Is there no possibility to take a half-time employe or a trainee that built links for you?
