Is www.indexkings.com safe to use?

Does anyone know if www.indexkings.com is a safe site to use to index a url in the eyes of Google?

[SebastianCowie]

IndexKings is a "safe" site to use. What it does is ping your URL to sites like Alexa, WSRising.com amongst others, which then pings Google.

It does generate a number of no-value backlinks and there's no documented harm (as far as i'm aware) by using these services sporadically.

What you should be aware of is users that submit 2nd or 3rd tier backlinks in an attempt to get them indexed via these services. If you've got a legitimate website that you want indexed, the best way to do that would be via www.google.com/addurl.html

Save yourself the hassle and risk

When you are on this website, one of the links clicks to http://www.monsterbacklinks.com/ where you have this company advertising 1200 backlinks for $157. This is definitely stuff i would stay miles away from. (I can see Rand shaking his head in disappointment at this company and getting really really mad :):)

Here is the simple answer. Why would you want to put your site or your client's site in jeopardy by engaging this company for link building. If you do get penalized , it will take a lot of hard work and effort to get your rankings back. The bottomline is "nothing comes easy". Top rankings for competitive keywords require a lot of hard work and effort for long lasting results.
