Is it legal to buy links?

Is it legal/ethical to buy links from online link brokers?

[Macguru]

Yes, but it isn't recommended.

Built your own network, slowly and carefully. Dont buy them from those who sell them online.

"Legal" implies "within the law".

Of course it is legal. 100% legal. If you are paying for someone to link to you from their site - there's no law in the world against it AFAIK.

Is it ethical? Of course it is. Even churches advertise online ;)

I don't see how the fact that you are using a broker changes anything.
