The only thing I noticed about trying to link on sites like Myspace, is that while the site itself has a PR of an 8. A persons' own MySpace is usually a 0.
Not that PR is everything
Couldn't someone then make a million of myspace accounts with the thought of getting their link a millions times?
I dont see the benefit in this, it doesnt seem to help, to have your link in any old random place. Social Bookmarking is nice but I dont see the benefits.
Anyone here have any thought. Whn it comes to linking, the best examples that have been worth it are:
Squidoo: indexed and ranked in google
Getting a link on a high traffic page because the owner likes your site and is willing to put you in a nice place. For example, we have a site that is for the DV Green Card Lottery. I saw a site that my traffic my be interested in and asked the webmaster if they would put our banner up. The webmaster agreed and placed a banner on a great page, and not only did I get my link on a high ranked site, but also it actually gets traffic!
Not worth it:
Directory submissions
Random Linking
Anyone else?
