Link Building Recommendations Please
-
Hi -
I am responsible for a small but growing number of websites for companies that serve the elderly population. I need help with link building for these websites and I'm looking for suggestions on finding one or two professionals to whom I can outsource that work.
1. Can you recommend anyone for this need, someone I can contact who you know to be qualified and professional?
2. Can you give me an idea of what such services should cost?
Thanks!

Hey tcolling!
Whatever you decide, I would guard against looking for a "good deal" in terms of price. REAL, quality link building efforts that have the potential to drive real results for you is not going to be cheap. If you have the budget, I would consult with Eric Ward before you do anything. He is THE expert in the field and can provide a great consultation for you that details the type of outreach and specific targets that will benefit your efforts the most.
Eric had a quote somewhere that went something like this...
Links can do 1 of 4 things:
a) help search rankings
b) help drive quality web traffic
c)neither
d)both
I'd make sure whomever you use is focused on link acquisition efforts designed to do both. THOSE are the links that Google generally values the most anyways.
There are many people who would be happy (myself included) to provide link building services, but anyone who does it the RIGHT way will need a fairly large time investment to do so (especially since you are dealing with multiple sites). I would say $1000/month/site would be a realistic starting point for someone qualified to produce for you.
Link building is no longer a manipulative task centered around manual link placement. It IS a process of outreach, networking, relationship building and research that (when done properly) can drive business to your sites, increase brand awareness and drive search rankings!

link building problems
Hello everyone
Link Building | | mkeshavarzmozprodt
I am not sure about the way Moz rank websites but sometimes I think it's a bit confusing. As an example, it kept changing in 3 days by going up and down. In addition, It is not compatible with my Ahrefs ranking. Would you please tell me which one is more correct and accurate in terms of my website authority?
It would be my pleasure if you take look at it first. Thank you in advance.

Link Building & Moz metrices
I am just starting up so no flaming please. Okay so i was given a project and i was amused to see a lot of backlinks to the website with viagra pills title. This is why i assume the domain authority is very low. I tried asking a few website owners to drop the links but they said its a lot of manual work they wont do it(that was shocking) So what next? Would building authority links in any domains help me in this case?

Link Building Through Blogs
A client of mine wants to look into new areas of link building after convincing them that their current link building strategies (purchasing multiple links from god knows where) was not working well for them. Essentially I felt they were spinning their wheels. Now, we are looking into content related blogs to get some honest links for their site. They sell sports equipment and we are looking at sports blogs to get links/partnerships. Most of these blogs want sponsorship fees or advertising fees. From an ethical standpoint I understand buying links is not the best idea. But because these are blogs that earn traffic, have relevant content, and can be helpful for the advertisement aspect to link to people who might be interested in their products as well. There shouldn't be a problem in acquiring a few of these links if the budget allows for it, correct? Also are blogs a good source to acquire links from?

Do you spend much time on the phone when link building?
When it comes to link building for a client how important is it to get on the phone when chasing links from other sites? Would you say this done all the time, half the time, not at all? Is this the SEO experts responsibility or the clients? Update: Really hoping to get an idea of how important this is to acheive good SEO results. Any chance the SEOMoz employees have any answers here?
