Link Building Question - GoFuckYourself.com

naughtylisa · 12-19-2009, 01:48 PM

I know that good seo and link building are key to getting a good rank in the search engines, but my question is - How many links are too many in a short period of time?
The reason I am asking is I see a number of people of GFY selling links of sometimes 50, 100 or 150 - is that too much at once? I dont want to get penalized.
Maybe a basic question, but I had to ask.
Thanks for your replies

Nobody can give you an answer to this, except Google themself. Basicly, Google does not want you to ever "fix" links, they want people to link to you in a natural way. If it discovers a huge amounts of links in a short period of time, it will be suspicious of spam or link-buying, which could hurt your website. Whenever you trade or buy links, just be sure to not overdo it. There are no known limits. However, think for yourself what you would find "suspicious" if you were them. I generally try to not get more than 10 links a day and every 100 links i leave a couple of days between the links. This is working fine, and I never had any problems from Google's side for it.

But well, if you get 500 new links a day, you might might get hit by a bat in Google

Typically, the more your website is trusted, the easier Google will go over links. If you're sitting at PR 0, and you get 1000 instant links in a day, then expect the worst. However, if your website is at a high pagerank (for example youtube), then you can get thousands of links a day without any harm.

Tamashi thank you that does make alot of sense - ok when I start buying it will only a reasonable number at a time and work on it from there. It can be a bit confusing when you google and get a hundred different answers for the same question.
TY
