Best SEO Link Building Company (textlinkbrokers.com or thinkbigsites.com) ?
-
We are looking into outsourcing the bulk of our link building.
And, so far, I am looking at two different SEO Agencies.
textlinkbrokers.com and thinkbigsites.com
Has anyone had any experience in working with either of these companies?
Has anyone had any great results with a different SEO Link Building Company?
Thanks!

Thanks for trying us out Nat. Drop me a line sometime (jarrod@textlinkbrokers.com) and let me know how everything is going. We are always looking for feedback.
Best,

I have been a professional SEO for 13 Years. I have ALWAYS wanted to work with textlinkbrokers but never had the budget. Now that I do, as of last week, I called them immediately and am about to begin a 3k per month campaign. Very much looking forward to working with some real pros.

Hey gang - sorry for my delay. As Keri noted; been a tough few days for me on the personal/family front.
Re: link building. My understanding is that Jarrod/TLB offer both the classic paid link services (at least I think they still do, not sure), which I'd be generally against and more white-hat style link outreach/content-marketing type link building, which I'd generally support. The former can be effective short-term, but can have dangerous results in the long run (Penguin's only the most recent example). The latter is usually of strong, lasting value, not just as a way to boost SEO, but as a way to help many inbound channels (referring link traffic, social media, branding, PR, etc).
Cheers,

Rand, if you do end up reading/replying to this, my apologies for evoking your name. I imagine that, with everything going on, you have better things to do then to defend our honor in a Q/A post :). If you do happen to respond though, thanks!

If you take a peek at Rand's twitter stream, you'll see that yesterday was a rather eventful day for him and it make take a few days before he has a few days to come into Q&A.

Glad to hear it. We have worked hard over the past couple of years to expand, and further improve our offerings. Thanks for checking us out.

HI Jarrod.
We have worked with TLB in the past (2 years ago) and it provided results.
With all the new Search Engine Updates, I wanted to be thorough in my search.
I already have a custom TLB Proposal from Josh B.
Thanks.

I will love to see Rand replying to this.:)

Greetings Full Spectrum,
I am one of the owners at TextLinkBrokers.
We would love to work with you.
In regards to our reputation I would point out the following:
- We have been doing link building for 10 years now
- A+ rated with the BBB. Which I believe is pretty amazing considering we have serviced over 30,000 clients and because of the nature of the business we are in.
- We are honest and transparent with everything we do.
- We have a larger lineup of link building services than any other company I know. If you have no risk tolerance and want to focus only on a link bait, link begging, and other types of content based link building, we can do that. Infographics? we do lots of those too.
- Yes we also do other types of link building that pure white hat SEO types may shy away from. Guest posting seems to be pretty popular with those types however, and we do more guest posting on higher quality sites than any other company I know of.
- If you have a bit more aggressive appetite we offer a ton of other very effective link building services and we have the experience to know how to do it without triggering over optimization and unnatural link filters.
- We also offer a full suite of other non link building services including Social Media Management, which goes really well with our content marketing programs.
PM me or send an email to jarrod@textlinkbrokers.com if you have any other questions. I have personally known Rand for a long time, and while he does not support the paid linking side of things he does recognize that we cater to all types.
Here is a testimonial from him:
"I've known Jarrod & the TLB crew for a long time. They've always had a great business that's provided value to their clients and partners." Rand
I'm not a huge fan of name dropping but this is Rand's site so...

Like Cornell said, there are much better ways to invest that monthly budget. You should look for a company that will work with your goals and create a strategy around getting your terms ranked.
There are many ways to earn links that will get quality traffic to your site.

This is something we can help you with, if you're interested, send me a message!

I know about penguin and panda.
So does textlinkbrokers and thinkbig.
textlinkbrokers worked in the past but I feel like thinkbigsites is more reputable.
"If you have $1800 to spend on SEO each month I think you can use them in better ways."
Any suggestions?
Because that's what I am looking for.
Thanks!

Hello,
http://www.textlinkbrokers.com/sell-links.html is in buying / selling links so that is a NO! NO! NO!
http://www.thinkbigsites.com/seo-seo-packages.html play the video (min 1:05) and they'll say "we own a big network of blogs and social bookmarking profiles" ... That's again a NO! NO! NO!
I suggest you read some blogs about the penguin and panda update ... just google it.
If you have $1800 to spend on SEO each month I think you can use them in better ways.

Link Building in Person
Someone answered me on Google plus but just to confirm. If I have a pet shop in one city and ranking well local. But want to rank even better in the surrounding cities. Is it a good idea to go to different pet shops in different cities and asked to trade links and help each other out . Will that be beneficial for my pet shop or not?

Should I become a regular contributor to help my SEO link building?
I've been offered the opportunity to contribute to a blog as often as I want and have a link included at the bottom of each post. Will this be much help to me in my link building SEO campaign? As I understand it more links from different root domains are what really count? So 20 links each from a different site is more valuable that 20 links from one site? Should I take up this opportunity or are my efforts best spent elsewhere?

Link Building - Post Penguin
Hi, We have an eCommerce site that has recently been hit for some unnatural linking, resulting in a warning in our Google Webmaster Tools account. We weren't doing anything particularly underhand (and indeed before Penguin there wasn't a cause for concern) but nevertheless Google has picked up and penalised us. We've instantly removed the worst offending links and requested a resubmission. If this doesn't result in positive action from Google we're planning on employing the services of an Oracle member on SEOmoz who was kind enough to give us some fantastic free advice in order to go through and remove any further links that may be seen as questionable. Moving forward however I'm a little bit overwhelmed as to exactly what we should be doing in order to create a positive, natural link portfolio. I understand the emphasis is on ‘natural’ linking but we’ve been online for 8 years and I think it’s fairly safe to say that the number of links we have now is probably representative of about our ‘lot’ when it comes to 100% natural links. It would be nice to give our portfolio a nice gentle push in the right direction. I’ve checked through SEOmoz and the most up to date link building article they have appears to be http://www.seomoz.org/beginners-guide-to-seo/growing-popularity-and-links - This guide however does seem to suggest some things that are potentially frowned upon now (for example, highly optimised anchor text I understand is now a no-no). Obviously, in days gone by I could look at Open Site Explorer to try to emulate my competitors but, to be honest, most of them have what I would describe as a fairly poor link profile and if I'm going to invest real time in to this I want to make sure I'm heading off in the right direction. Does anybody on here know of a really high quality post penguin link building guide, either on SEOmoz or elsewhere that I can use as some bedtime reading? Our website is eCommerce in nature so an article tailored towards online selling would be ideal. Thanks for reading! Chris

Best Link Building technique using SEOMoz tools & Open Site Explorer
Hi, We've been with SEOMoz for a year or two now, but have have kept an eye out for productive link building tools to help the team. To be honest we're struggling with Open Site Explorer because, although it enables us to discover competitors links it doesn't provide much link management functionality. A simple example would be the ability for Open Site Explorer to show links to domains which my clients already have in a different colour, so that we don't waste time exploring dead ends. I'd be very interested to hear tips how other people use the SEOMoz tools to manage their link building as I suspect we may be missing a trick or two... Thanks in advance!

Learning link building
I want to learn from one of the best how to do real link building. I currently outsource this and just aren't sure if they're that good or not. Can you please let me know if Rand is doing any training or presentations on this in L.A or California this year? And if not him maybe someone else you can recommend who's good. Thanks much.

Who here outsources your link building?
Anyone here run an agency? Do you outsource your link building to another company overseas so it's cheap, or what is everyone else doing nowadays?
