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 too quickly
Hi all, I have recently started trialing to outsource some SEO to a 3rd party, who obviously promissed white hat techniques and manual links etc.. All has gone well for the first month. But on speeking to another expert they point out that the search engines will spot inconcistencies in link building and penalise me. I know there will not be a know ammount but as we stand at the moment, what is the current feeling of too fast. Links built for me in one month were 100 directory submissions 80 bookmarks 16 search engine submissions 15 Article submissions 46 forum links 10 local classified searches Is this too fast? , If to do I stop and create more inconsistency or continue at a similar rate. Of course quality of link will be an issue, but how much. Many thanks from SEO jnr

How much Link Building?
I'm wondering how much additional directory links to a site, on a monthly basis, would be too much, and potentially seen as too manufactured in Google's eyes. I am referring specifically to good quality, or relevant, directory links, nothing very spammy. I know there is no specific number, just wondering what the consensus is. Would a 10% monthly increase in linking root domains generally be considered too much? 5%? Thanks for your input!

Link Building Strategy Advice
Hi, I was wondering what everyone's general strategy is for link building. We're doing it all ourselves manually (i.e. not paying $5 for 100,000 links) and are using the Site Explorer tool to find links to competitors and related websites. The majority of sites are blogs and directories which ask for payment ($50 per month for example). We're obviously looking for free links as well but we're finding that pretty much every site wants something in return (cash or reciprocal link) - unless the content is amazing, why would anyone link to another site without an incentive? We're focussing heavily on content and writing articles, blogs, press releases every week but the subject matter isn't always exciting enough for someone to really want to link to it naturally. Thoughts?

When rebuilding a site, when should you start building links?
We are in the process of completely rebuilding our web presence. We went ahead and started a blog using Hubspot while we are redesigning everything and writing all new content. The new site will be live in early August. The question is when do we start making a big push with Linkbuilding? I am currently trying to promote the Blog but I'm wondering about linkbuilding for the rest of the site? Do we wait until the new site is live or do we start doing it now? The new site will be completely different from the old site?

Link Building - Goals and Expectations
I'm trying to set concrete goals around link building and I'm wondering if anyone has any insight on what is reasonable to expect. If we are reaching out to 10 sites a day in a non-spammy, relevant way, is it reasonable to think that we'll get 5 links back, 2 links? I just don't know. Tips and tricks are welcome too!!
