Link Exchange - Would this work?
-
Hi - So I recently thought of linkbuilding and the right way to do it. After trying a couple of methods I realized that good and trustworthy websites are hard to find, and even those ask you for some kind of payment. So my option would be to contact foreign SEO agency - that would logically have a big portfolio of websites from a lot of different domains and establish partnerships - find solutions. Giving that we are in different countries and we operate different websites we could really make a great job without paying attention to competition on the same nieche.
This idea came to me a couple of minutes ago, and I though it would be great to ask your opinion, and who knows - maybe we can even have a partnership - especially since I believe SEOmozzers are the best
What do you think?

Hi, and thank you for your answer. I believe that from all the link building techniques this could be the fastest and safest way to build valuable links from trusted websites. I am thinking that a good decision would be to partner up with other SEO's, keep a close relationship and just do it.

Your Proposal seems just like a standard 3-4 way reciprocal strategy. If you are within related niches and do not do Homepage links, then in theory it may help you, but it all really depends.
Of course this strategy could pay of, and for some I am sure it has, but this should not be the only method in which you obtain links in my opinion.
You will need to be meticulous in your tracking of links to verify you do not leave a footprint. All in all in my opinion I am not sure the work involved will translate to a large SEO gain, so the return and risk would outweigh the benefits.
w00t!

Short - - Building links on related industry sites.

Hi and thank you for your answer. Nope - that isn't what i want to do or say. My view is the fallowing: if i would have a foreign partner we can both work together on linkbuilding - for example I could say: look, i have this great website for a 4 start world know hotel - it has natural links and continues to receive links in a natural way. I do not trust directories and I would need a good link exchange partner that could offer to trade links - 3 way maybe or 4 way - with another 4 star Hotel website, that also has quality. We could help eachother out - deeplinking - and not on trading links on the first page or on a page made for link exchange. We could both have quality links. All the websites i am in charge of have a PR 3, good authority, and represent trustworthy companies, brands or national organizations. Even though links build naturally, they still need help, especially since the competition has help - I mean that is why they hired me for.

If you go to an SEO agency which has its own network of sites it is risky,
An ethical SEO agency will do natural link building practices using some of the following methods:
-
Link prospecting (looking at competitors links) finding niche link opportunities.
-
Building great content to obtain links.
-
PR syndication to get links.
-
Video syndication to get links.
-
Building links on related industry sites.
-
Building reputation on forums to obtain links.
The list in endless!!! If an agency says to you ok we have a network of 50 sites we will add your site to them all I would not trust it.

Refferal links
I have a site where I can pick up where my hits came from. So if somebody clicks from another website link to visit my website, I will then pick up from which website they came from and also which page they landed on. Will google penalize me for this and see this as paid advertising?
