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) 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. In other words, is it better to have the blog running in a subdomain or as a director within the main site? Right now we are running as a subdomain, but want to be sure Google isn't considering that a separate site. 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

Help getting a Wordpress.com site to rank
Hi all, I have a blog for my site, but it hasn't been integrated into our site yet (that will happen in the next few months when we do some site changes). For now, it sits on a Wordpress.com site, and links from my website. I post a couple times a week, have social media linked to it, and feed posts to aggregators regularly. I also comment and like other Wordpress.com sites, but it just isn't ranking. Do I just need to stay persistent? It's been up for a month now, but still only getting a few hits a day. Any advice?

My Wordpress traffic has gone through the roof, huge referrals from wordpress.com - why?
My Wordpress traffic has hit an all time high over the last few days - in the last 48 hours I've had as many views as the last two months combined. This huge spike in traffic has coincided with a great piece of exclusive content that went up, but I wouldn't expect the traffic to be nearly as high as this. The strange thing is that all the extra traffic seems to be referred from Wordpress.com, however, I cannot drill down to a more specific URL. Also, the referrals do not seem to translate into page views of the homepage, nor a particular article. Can anyone offer any insight into this situation? Thanks
