Link building external trusted help out there?
-
Hi there guys and Girls,
I am a newbie to the seo world but learning quickly. Unhappy with seo services offered for startups I have taken on the role myself for my website. I think so much of what can be learnt online here I can implement myself with a few hours of work each week. So my dilemma! I have lots of ideas of for content which i know will be valuable and I was considering outsourcing just for link building (the long haul work) The trouble is I am wary of who to use and if such service is out there? I have tried searching on o'desk and freelancer etc but I guess i am too frightened of spammy links or postings on irrelevant sites.
I guess initially I am looking for someone who can help my link building campaign whilst I build up my own blogging contacts etc. Does anyone know if these types of services exist? and if any are recommended for small companies?
Thanks
Michelle

Thanks Masoko,
Great advice, would you be willing to share a freelancer recommendation to me via private message? Always good to get a recommendation of someone with first hand experience

Greetings
I agree with you, freelancing sites like odesk or elance can be a bit of a jungle.
Here´s what I've done when I've needed a freelancer from those sites:
- Browse the list of Freelancers, use the site's filters to select freelancers that have high rankings in areas that you need.
- Contact the freelancers directly, do not to post an open ad because you will be flooded by low quality offers.
- Ask your potential freelancers about their experiences in projects such as yours, see if they ask questions about your site and your project. the best freelancers usually ask good questions.
- Finally, I would advise that you start small, give a specific linkbuilding assignment to the 2 or 3 freelancers you like the most, for example: "create 5 or 6 links from a site with x PR or in Y industry" and see what they deliver, this way you can determine what the quality level of the freelancer is before committing to a long term (and potentially expensive) partnership.
Good Luck
Masoko

Links Building from contractors on eLance.com
Hi, I never hire somebody to create link building to point to our sites. On eLance.com you can hire a SEO contractor to build link our your domaine. New to SEO, is worth it to do so? Is there things I should should be careful about? Things I need to clarify before hiring somebody? Things I need to confirm or ask before hiring such contractors? Most of those ''SEO Expert'' are from India and some have perfect ratings on this site. I have 2 eCommerce sites and we only have a average of 3 sales a day. I can't afford price companies are asking in North America. For a lot less, eLance maybe the solution for our home base business. What is your advice on this? Thank you BigBlaze

Link Building for a Newbie!
Hi Guys & Girls. Following my previous question, I seem to really be getting to grips with SEOmoz and all its features which seem fantastic. As mentioned before, I am quite new to this SEO game and learning all the time!! Through all my reading and learning over the last week I have learnt that Link Building is one of the most powerful ways of increasing your SEO game. I'm really trying to get my head around it all. I have come across things like "Link Farming" which seems to be a big no no in terms of Google. Submitting to Link directories etc etc. Now for somebody new, this all comes across quite confusing. Can anybody out there provide me with a really simple but informative way to effectively Link Build? Best practices etc etc! I really want to learn and "up" my game! The website that I am working with is http://www.advanced-incar.co.uk Many thanks, Tim
