Where to buy high quality backlinks in 2018?
-
I am searching for backlink vendors, only english-speaking websites, financial topic. Another option is business, news, technologies, cryptocurrencies related sites. Only high-quality, active and developed websites, real traffic, no spam. If you have some contacts of vendors of such kind (or if you have access to the right website), please share emails - would really appreciate that!

Hi there,
As others have said, buying links is against Google Webmaster Guidelines and if they find you doing it, it can lead to a penalty and depending on how bad the problem is, the penalty can range from losing a bit of traffic to you not appearing for your own brand name.
I won't lie - buying links can still work and I see websites doing it all the time. But you need to be aware of the risks if you're going down that route and if you're working with a business that relies on traffic from Google in order to survive, the consequences can be severe.
Hope that helps!

Don't buy links, earn links! Great quality content and outreach in a manor befitting your site and status will bring rewards, where as buying links may earn short term gain, they will ultimately have a negative end result.

Agree with thr above. Don’t buy links. Spend those resources on doing your own link acquisition strategies such as creating high quality content onsite and amplifying this to attract natural backlinks. I know it’s not easy, but you’ve got to work hard to reap rewards that will benefit you for the longterm.
Goodluck!

Easy way to "buy" backlinks, in style, without running afoul of webmaster guidelines.
Step 1: curate a list of all the sites you want a backlink from
Step 2: get the emails of the webmasters there - lots of tools and methods for this, both automated and manual
Step 3: use customer match on Google or Custom Audiences on Facebook to upload your email list of webmasters you picked
Step 4: use targeted ads to get your content in front of this audienceThis really only works if you don't have garbage content. But basically you advertise this content only to people who actually have a website and would consider linking to you and voila. You've basically "bought" backlinks.

Do keyword/competitor research and create compelling content that is great link bait. Inbound links will organically occur if the content is useful. Repeat this many times and traffic will increase for these landing pages and push your DA up. It's difficult, and requires much times/resources. This is a better route than buying links that can get you hurt you in the future. Good luck!

Quotations about importance of social media and backlinks
Hi all, I'm looking to put together a presentation on SEO and I'm wondering if anyone knows any good quotes that relate to the importance of having content on your site that people want to use and share. I'm looking for something like this: “Today’s marketing success comes from self-publishing Web content that people want to share. It’s not about gimmicks. It’s not about paying an agency to interrupt others.” David Meerman Scott “The New Rules of Marketing and PR” but ideally something that illustrates in terms of numbers how much more traffic and seo benefits a site can expect from having good guides, pdfs and news stories that people want to share. Thanks so much for any helo you can offer. thanks, David
