Any experience with Textbroker.com

Hi mozzers
Just looking for opinions on textbroker.com. They seem very affordable so thinking that post panda this level may not be good enough.....so any experiences shared would be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi Thanks for the reply. I think you may be getting confused with textlinkbrokers. We're talking about getting content written by textbrokers! Totally agree with not buying links. Wouldn't dream of it. Best wishes Trevor

Not sure if this will help. We recently brought in two new clients. Both had text link's to other sites on their home pages. It would make sense that Google would view them as suspicious, as they also had a robust "links" page. There site rankings where slipping, and when you used the Link:www.yoursitehere.com" command, they didn't show at all. Talk about RED flags!
GWM wasn't showing any back links to either site (A REAL PROBLEM)Â and we assumed they where passing no link juice because of it.
Long story short, we removed the spammy looking links on the home page, and change the link page so it had far fewer links, and looked more natural . Links are back on GWM  and rankings have returned.
My Point... If Google picked up on these two sites, which trust me, are not all that spammy and are real companies , and were NOT selling text links, I can only guess that the sites you will end up on will have very little value.
Why not do it the other way? Earning great links back through great content and great P.R. ? Use professional SEO process? The days of buying your rankings are fading fast!

Hi Joseph, thanks for that. Definitely would be looking at the top level for quality but that is still pretty cheap! Not looking to spend more than I have to but want quality.
Thanks again.

I've used them before. I went the 4 star route and it was pretty good. A few tweaks on my part and I was really happy with the content. Had a friend try the 2 star quality and it was terrible. Pretty much you get what you pay for there.

Blog.site.com vs site.com/blog
Which is better for SEO: blog.site.com or site.com/blog. Â In other words, is it better to have the blog running in a subdomain or as a director within the main site? Â Right now we are running as a subdomain, but want to be sure Google isn't considering that a separate site. Â The blog shows up separately on Google Analytics, which makes me think site.com/blog is better if for no other reason, it would give our domain greater traffic. Not sure if this matters, but some site info: our site is a sharing economy tool for renting your stuff we are running the blog on Wordpress blog traffic is about 5% of total traffic

Blog.website.com or website.com/blog
Hello, I have a question, in some moz guidelines you can read website.com/blog is better/more recommended than  blog.website.com. But when you look at the domain authority you see no difference. blog.website.com gets exact the same domain authority as website.com. So can somebody explain why website.com/blog is really better than blog.website.com? Or is there no difference? Thank you verry much

I want to swop a site to an existing domain. i.e. it was http://A.com and now want it to be B.com...please help
The company I have started working for as two main websites. The main website (A) is out of date and not very functional but has the companies prime domain name. The other site (B) has their ecommerce engine. I'd like to make B the prime site i.e. take over A's domain name. Huge warning bells are going off  regarding the SEO of this decision. Any advice or suggestions in how to go about this without destroying the company's SEO would be greatly valued.

Has anyone used http://www.congoo.com
Hi, i got sent an email and normally i ignore them but decided on this occasion i would try it. It was an email from congoo.com saying it is a great place to get noticed. Now i have joined and to be honest it is a lot of rubbish when it comes to promoting yourself. I have mine here http://www.congoo.com/In2town The only place that i see you can promote yourself is at the top but once you change your article it goes, so is it all a con. would like to hear your thoughts

Typepad.com blog migration & duplicate content
I've migrated a typepad.com blog with a bunch of content (but little traffic) onto a hosted WordPress site under my own domain name (the way I should've done it in the first place). Now I don't want to confuse Google that the new site is duplicating content from the other site, so would I be better off with: 1) meta-refresh redirecting each typepad.com post to the same post on the new blog, or 2) just killing the typepad.com blog entirely so Google will not find duplicate posts anywhere. In favor of #2 is the fact that these posts get very little traffic today. I figure I will lose more traffic from duplicate content ranking penalties than from losing the posts themselves in the original blog. What do you think?

Cosmo feature: any difference between linking a phrase or .com?
I just had an article posted on Cosmopolitan.com to my site, www.100redflags.com. My request to them was that they link specifically the phrase "100 Red Flags" to http://100redflags.com, but they actually said "go to 100redflags.com" - with 100redflags.com hyperlinked. My question: If I'm trying to build rank with the term "red flags", or at least "100 red flags", is the way that they did it helping me at all? If it will help me more to have them link the phrase "100 Red Flags", does it matter whether they do that today when traffic is high, or tomorrow when traffic is lower? Thanks for the clarification, Bill p.s their post here:Â http://www.cosmopolitan.com/sex-love/dating-advice/dating-mistakes-women-make#slide-1
