How dangerous is it to build up too many links, too fast by using common SEO strategies like directories, link exchanges, writing articles, etc.?

Hi Saj,

I would do it in batches as too many website changes, back links, directories, listings could cause the search engines to get a little annoyed.

Track what you do and when you do it, so if you make a mistake you will have a better idea as to what you did and when you did it.

Do a few changes on a weekly basis as opposed to a daily basis and see if you positioning will hold.

Remember that fluctuation does occur so don't worry if you go up and down as the search engines need a little time to work out what you are about.

Cheers,

I suggest you better take it one at a time...

I think 1 week at a time is good enough. It takes 3 months to finally gauge the results of your work - this is for a brand new website.

It's not dangarous. It's called a smart way of doing things while others lagging behind. If you have the resources to do all of that fast, go for it. Time is money.

take no parameters with regards to collect many backlinks in a fast way...just be sure that they are quality and related...

I don't think anyone can really say how many links to get at a time except Google. The idea is to get more than your competitor but it takes time for Google to pick up all the links.

Well, it can get you banned or punished, so it is dangerous enough

I could get you penalized and possibily banned, but how much is too many and what is too fast?

don't thin k you can be banned for getting too many backlinks too fast as long as backlinks are quality and related backlinks, you can get penalized for a while, but once google realizes that backlinks are permanent, your site will come out of the penalty very strongly.

As long as the content is contextually relevant, changes in content are not penalized. It's when it appears that you are just diddling with the page title, keywords and description meta tags that you sometimes fall off.

Some say that it's a penalty. I think it's just that the algorithms are weighing the relevance of the <head> matter against content and comparing what the bot found to other sites with the same <head> matter and context.

What ever the case, good sites rebound.

Go for it. You are not trying to get your links page into the first page of hits anyway.

REally?? I thought they just drop your PR, never heard bout banned from search engine

briggidere · 12-27-2007, 06:47 PM

You WONT get banned for getting links too quickly, maybe just filtered so the PR doesn't pass across for months after you aquired them.

IF you could get banned for it, i'd be buying lots of links to my competitors and getting them banned. IT IS NOT POSSIBLE.....

Getting inbound links for your site is not an instant boom... If you're looking for quality backlinks, it would be better to take it easy. Quality is really a big factor...

dotservant.com · 12-28-2007, 05:55 AM

I will have to agree, quality out beat quantity, large number of low quality links does not help and might even pull you down.

You are right, it is not an instant results but you need to be patience and need hardwork. But how do we know if the link is a quality site? It's must be a related site with the same category, do we considered the pagerank, website traffic and SERP?
