I didn’t agree with you first, but last paragraph makes sense for me…

Thanks so much. More than anything, I value all the info in this article and others you’ve written. Specifially for this, the explanation that there aren’t negative ramifications. As I have gottent further into SEO, I keep finding things that I initially had done expecting it was moving me up in the ranks only to find out that I had gotten ‘penalized’ for not doing it exactly as intended. So much to learn and something new every day!!

Please update with info on how effective you find this site — but for $5, you can’t really go wrong!!

That is actually a good idea. I will be purchasing one of the spots for $5 bucks for my business. Thank you very much for the tip. Incase other people don’t know, getting relevant links linking to your site increase page rank and search engine popularity aswell. This is a must for online businesses or to get more visitors to your blog. Just my 2 cents hehe.

Thanks, I am new to backlinking and all this SEO stuff and am trying to learn because I have only been backlinking for about 3 weeks with great results. I don’t quite follow you and will try to figure it out. If you have any easier ABC instructions for a novice I would appreciate it until I become accustomed to your lingo. Thanks so much.

@Eduardo - sorry, your comment got caught in the spam filter. Scratchback is such an absolutely cheap way to buy links for traffic, and you’re right - no punishment from Google!

@Chadwyck - so far, for $5 on a pretty popular blog, I’ve stayed in the top spot for a couple of weeks and netted 18 new visitors.

@New Zealand - no, but I picked a blog that I like and that I know gets good traffic and the type of visitors I want to visit my blog. You can use Compete to get a pretty accurate idea of traffic on a site.

Do you get to see how much traffic these sites have? It is cheap, but if only a few people see the link then it is not worth a lot.

It’s must better to use scratchback and advertise your links. The simple reason is Google - as it won’t punish any participants for exchanging or selling / buying textlinks. Scratchback maker took care of this by making it NOFOLLOW… that’s very good move I think.

I think this is a pretty cool idea, but the more popular the blog is, the less practical it becomes (for those buying the slots). If 20 people/day want a slot, something’s got to give.

On the other hand, if it is a popular blog, even less that a day of exposure could be worth $5.

Jorge - I’ll put it in my list of things to do. Glad you found my blog!

Warhammer Online - thanks for your comment.

JBourne - It’s actually a flash widget, so the links don’t show up, but it could be a good traffic builder.

I figure that even if it doesn’t last on a really popular blog, it should get some excellent exposure while it’s there (I hope).
