Is buying blog reviews a good idea?
-
Hi there,
I was wondering if it's worth investing on buying blog reviews for me site, by using sites like buyblogreviews.com?
I've been making sure the blog sites are relevant and has good rankings, and not too many outgoing links. I also make sure they write about something interesting related to my site, that should get people's attention and gain more traffic.
Any thoughts?
Thanks.

Cameron,
If you can obtain those links and have it appear natural on quality relevant sites, it is as good as a guest post. Just be careful and choose wisely. It works, no matter what anyone tells you. Let's be honest here.

I would essentially recommend you to take your keywords, and see who is ranking better then you for your keywords. Look at their backlinks and try to get links from those kinds of sites. It has to be a little bit of everything:
Press Releases
Some sort of an Infographic?
Content that people would like to link to...some sort of How To Guides...
The same sort of Guides if you can do different ones for your own site and others that can be used for Guest Posting on other sites/blogs.
Actively participate in some niche forums/local forums where people might be looking for this kind of help. -
Thanks. Great Response. I actually have been asking to do guest blogs on many sites and a few have allowed me. Do you have any other suggestions on what types of links to get besides blogs or directories?

I would recommend not using any kind of link networks. If you can contact relevant blogs directly, maybe do some of those kinds of guest posts etc. Also, diversify your link profile. Do a little bit of everything or in other words, don't overdo any 1 technique. A natural link profile consists of all kinds of links and too much of any-kind is where it becomes un-natural.

Is building a Link Network from scratch a good idea?
My SEO agency are suggesting that they will build a Link network from scratch by buying domains and building blog sites on them. All sites that link to my site would in theory be 'clean' and as we build up their authority we increase the value of the links to my site. One of the upsides is taht we would have complete control of all the links. This does sound a bit spammy but in theory could it work?

Do you link out to good content?
I have noticed that there are a bunch of questions in the Q&A about people are concerned about allowing blog post comments or linking out in general. My question is: do you avoid linking out to other websites, even though they have good content? I am not talking about direct competitors here, but just linking to other websites in general.

Would you approve this blog comment?
I just got an unusual comment on one of my blog posts on our real estate site. The article was about a particular street that is getting renamed after a historical figure. The comment is seven paragraphs of information about this person. The comment is an obvious attempt to get a backlink in my opinion. The site that it is linking back to is an architect's site. So, this is probably the work of an SEO. I've searched and can't find duplicate content online. I thought perhaps it was from wikipedia but there is no entry on this person and I've searched several phrases from the comment and it doesn't appear to be duplicated. So, would you approve it? My gut instinct is "yes" because it would add to the content on my site...but there's this little thing in the back of my head that is saying "Don't do it!!!!" EDIT: I just checked and the architect's site has 3 backlinks, none of which are blog comments. So, perhaps it is legit. Maybe someone is just fanatical about this historical figure. EDIT AGAIN: Very cool. I just checked their about page and the owner of the business has the same last name as the historical figure. OK. I'll stop being super paranoid now. LOL!
