Outsourced Link Building?

[w4an1]

I was reading recently that a SEO company was outsourcing link building to an Indian based company which could do this work fairly economically.

Does anyone have a link to such sources they could pass along, or maybe some reviews of search services?

Thanks

You could check sites like elance.com to look for offshore or onshore subcontractors. Naturally, check the firm's ratings and look for ones that have done that kind of project and come to you with a well-prepared plan.

I suggest you do your own link building.
Any time an email is sent out with your address on it trying to gain something like a link, your site's reputation is on the line. You should know your industry better than any other and know what site's you should go after linkwise first.

Being a webmaster myself, I wouldn't do such outsourcing to anyone. A single mistake and that could lead my site to a complete ban on google.

Of course, many would prefer outsourcing, but not me :)

Read through some good posts on WW and you will be good as a webmaster in 7 days :)

Thanks for the replies. You seem to assume that I'm trying to make some kind of personal site for my own enjoyment.

There are any number of reasons that I might be interested in outsourcing quality link development...

This time, I have no time to develop links and/or it is a much better investment to oursource it to someone who will work for less money per hour or per link than I will.

The same goes for cleaning my toilets, mopping the floors, and dusting. Of course that wasn't always true.

Thanks

Just like I mentioned before, not me. But if you are comfortable, go for it :) Good luck
